That's about it under the hood. <BR/><BR/>The owner of my local garage knows how to pronounce my last name.

He says it properly with no hesitation. <BR/><BR/>We're just thankful their service is great.Marie N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02358976552469177345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-85377277028393352862007-09-18T05:58:00.000-08:002007-09-18T05:58:00.000-08:00I have a manly husband that can fix anything compu...I have a manly husband that can fix anything computer related AND is super good with his brain.

I'm not mechanic either.<BR/><BR/>My husband does almost all the work on our cars. He even changed the air ride suspension system to a standard system on the old Lincoln. Sometimes I wish he'd take the thing to the mechanic, because of course it takes all day for him to do these things, but I know that would cost a ton of money, so I'm glad we don't have too. I know nothing about cars. Nothing. While I was typing this comment my husband was giving me condescending looks and making me change the names of the car parts he changed.
