Atleast you can shave your head. Call it your summer cut.

That's a pretty clever solution...I'd say wise on that. I guess the "not so 
wise" was getting por-15 in your hair? so, that isn't the new spa treatment all 
the celebrities are raving about?

I have been POR 15-ing away the inside of Sonne, following all of the crazy 
steps needed to make it stick and control rust forever.  Hopefully this was a 
wise decision.  

I wore lots of protective garments while painting the POR 15 on, including 
fully covering my head and face and taping my gloves to my sleeves. But I still 
managed to get this wicked paint all over myself and tragically in my hair.  
Not so wise.

I was determined to get Sonne's stuck wheel unstuck.  This proved to be quite a 
challenge.  Thanks to the advice of friends and through research I had lots of 
strategies to try but alas none of them worked, the wheel would not budge. I 
almost cried.  I almost swore. (I swear a bunch when I replace kitchen faucets 
or fix vacuums but never when I work on a Bus.).  I almost had a man with more 
strength, more know-how and bigger tools come to help me out.  But I looked 
around my garage and saw a wheel chock.  I raised the stuck wheel high off the 
ground and would wedge the chock underneath.  I would then drop the jack and 
the wheel would turn a couple of inches as it rolled down the chock.  I did 
this over and over until I got to the star adjuster and hip hip hooray, a 
couple spins of the adjuster and Sonne's stuck wheel now spins freely.  Wise.

Here is some photographic evidence:
