Did you know that if you put on brake shoes with the springs on the outside of the shoes, the spring tension pulls the springs out, away front the backing plates and when you drive the bus the shoes rub against the drum and it sounds like the entire suspension is broken and may fall off at any time? Did you know that? Freakin' Brian! ----- Original Message ----- From: Denis Dodson To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2008 7:48 AM Subject: [tcb] Re: Murray fire was caused by... BRIAN! Stephan Brennan is local up here and is, apparently, a spy for Brian. Chuck worked on my headlights and, apparently, didn't tighten the screw holding the light in the bucket, apparently. I went to a meeting of the Volksmeisters at a coffee house and Stephan was apparently told by a guy there, Jack, apparently, that my headlight was hanging from a wire. It was. I screwed the screw, put the headlight in and everyone had a big laugh about how was I going to blame that on Brian. OK, here goes. Apparently, Chuck was distracted by Brian taking about counting splines and lost his concentration, apparently. Chuck is a good man, bless his heart, can only think and do one thing at a time and was thinking about counting splines while he was working on my headlights, apparently. I'm not sure Stephan even owns a VW at his time. That is apparently the case, apparently. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephen Brannan To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, February 23, 2008 11:13 PM Subject: [tcb] Re: Murray fire was caused by... BRIAN! Was it Chuck's fault that your headlight almost fell out today or are you blaming Brian as well? The guy that saw it is Jack.
