Tough break, Paul. A lot of crooks in the world, huh? Of course, with Mr. Cheney at the helm, you can't expect much different from the rest of the population, I guess... (ouch!!)
Seriously, how about considering a more environmentally friendly replacement, something that might not lead to Ken's Alaskan friend, Bluebutt, becoming Oilspill-soaked-butt? Frankly, I think you would look quite sporting on a shiny new Schwinn, pedalingly delightfully to and from Dearborn each day! Why, you'd be the toast of Birmingham!! A Prius maybe?? <vbg> Bill Sawyer Livonia, MI -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 11:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Stranded in Chi-Town Hi Ken, I just got a call from the Chicago Police this morning asking if it was okay if they put my car on the hot sheet. I told them it would have been better if they did it two days ago. The bureacracy rolls on. I don't know what I'll replace it with. Although I'm working for WPP, I'm still freelance. So for the first time in many years, I don't really owe allegiance to any one company. But I am thinking about a Mountaineer or Explorer. I like the new engine and the six-speed automatic. I'll have to see what kind of deals are out there. Perhaps they'll sign me on here and give me a car allowance, but I'm not going to hold my breath. Tough times in Motown. Paul
