Julie:  I thought only anti-gun hippies and beatnicks lived in Austin.  Now you 
tell me you have a 4th grader red-neck out blowing up pumpkins with an M-16.  
In 
East Texas I can believe that.  It is a popular sport in the piney woods, but 
not Austin.

Thanks for all of the advice helping me to find my gremlin.  The #10 fuse was 
very loose and so far no more starting/stalling/blowing horn to get going 
situations.  Hopefully that was it.
Some unknown person left a slightly used Matchbox orange pop top Bay Camper on 
my front gate yesterday.  Not sure if it is a sweet or a creepy act.
And a completely unrelated to Buses story, today one of my 4th graders said 
"The 
best thing I did over the holiday break was blow up pumpkins.  We shot them 
with 
pistols and rifles and an M16.  My uncle said it smelled of victory but I think 
it smelled more like pie."
