Well Will, you are probably correct in that they are irrelevant. Because she already knows what you are like and would have probably divorced you a long time ago because of the VW if she couldn't put up with it, so a little tranny oil in the oven is not gonna be the straw that broke the camels back. --- On Mon, 12/7/09, Will <evil.scientist.boo@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Will <evil.scientist.boo@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [tcb] Re: I remembered ...
