1) Got my car back from repairs yesterday afternoon. Turned out the part shown in the repair manual and the part we actually needed were two different things. Took the wrong replacement back to Hillbilly's (Dad driving me in his Buick), exchanged it for the right replacement (which didn't look too good, but looked much better than the obviously and comprehensively burnt-out unit removed from Moonshine's dashboard) and got it to the Mechie. I stood in his driveway for about twenty minutes while he installed the replacement and put the dashboard back together. He had his ancient stereo system (it had a built-in 8-Track) playing the Knoxville Cliché--err, "Classic" Rock station.

"Who Are You?"..."Sharp-Dressed Man"..."The Girl's Got Rhythm"..."Turn The Page"..."Rockin' Into The Night"..."Love Hurts"...

And irony's jukebox hit "Take It Easy" when Mechie had finished his work. (At least no heavy metal band has yet remade Willie Nelson's "On The Road Again"!)

2) Egie's still playing Star Wars Lego. Current score: 178,000,000 points. He's already unlocked all the characters and vehicles and now is working on collecting all the "gold blocks" to pay off Jabba The Hutt.

It's a lousy day today, so we'll give him some slack. It's overcast outside and a little chilly.

3) Spent last night trolling through LiveLeak again. It's not that I'm not finding minkable stuph, it's just that I'm not so much in a mood for posting embeds this time around.
