I'm dating Nancy and she takes me to meet her best friend's parents. The father is nice and chatty, and I mention that I drive an Austin Healey 3000. Without missing a beat, the father turns to Nancy and says: "I'm surprised that a smart girl like you would be dating someone soooo stupid as to be driving a British sports car!"
I've been on my heels ever since.

Manual transmissions will make for more attentive and safer drivers

A little more progress last night. Another coat of paint on the passenger side underside of the Volvo and on the MGA driveshaft. Also changed the oil in the MGA, hooked up the plumbing for the radiator and finished swapping out the valve cover.
Need to check level of oil in the transmission (I think I might have a leak (maybe front plate) that I can't trace), and then I'll attempt to start her up.

Salt report, 9n is salt free south of Etown and 22 as far south as Glens Falls.More rain today and I hope you are not seeing any snow with the OT monsters laying down more salt.
Anyone. Is ESPN2 the place for F1?

Thanks Riche, the main roads up here appear clear too, back roads not so much. Been a raw wet/sleet/snowy day here, trees are all covered in ice, temp has finally got to 33 so it should start melting. Sure could use a nice sunny day to dry things up.
