O vey...as I type..Mad Howard is just going off..Ummm..he came in 3rd and he is going off thinking that he won the Presidency...ain't it time for BARF alert yet?

Madder than a the Mad Hatter fer sure...

Anyhoo..I had an interesting night...as I was going to my friends house, I noticed my battery light was on.. Oh great, I thought. Glad that I was going to my friends house for he is very adaptable in car mechanics..I ain't. Well, he checked it out and the battery was not charging. O vey, the alternator, eh? Well...O'Reilly was not that far away from his house, so I make a quick trip over there. The battery light was still on. BUT as soon I get into the parking lot, the battery light goes off. (!$@!$!)I buy the alternator anyhow, go back to friends house. The light is STILL off. I ask my friend to check again. Guess what? The battery is charging. (What the Morder is going on!?) I decide not to change the alternator. I will keep eye on light.

Well...I was going home and I thought that I will stop by O'Reilly once more and ask the manager to check it out with his handy dandy measuring machine. I told him the whole story on what's going on.It came to find out that the alternator was bad. SOOOO..I went back to my friend's house and he replaced it. Took only about 15-20 minutes. I even went back and got my $50.00 back.

Whew..I am pooped..what a night! I hate this kind "surprises", ya know? I am glad though that I have my friend as a "true friend". He has helped me out in many, many ways...

Well, Dick Gepardt is planning to pull out...watching him now...Back to St.Louis you go!
