    Good News Bad News

    OK, good news bad news time. I got my letter from the DMV telling me my license is still suspended and my chair just got here.

    However, there are the three most dreaded words in the English language, "Some Assembly Required."
    Score 3 strokes, 4 seizures and 2 brain surgeries

    I've had brain surgery, what's your excuse?

    Hide them somewhere. I have a special box for just this purpose, one day I'll be able to build something really interesting with all the leftovers.

    You ever take something apart, then put together, and have parts left over, even though the device functions like new?

    Take a photo of the spare parts and email it to the vendor. Ask them where the rest of the wheelchair is.

    Back in High School when we were shade tree mechanics, we had a bush under which we ceremonially dumped the bowl of leftover car parts every time we tore the cars apart.

    After the fifth or sixth time, we were starting to wonder what held it together..

    A guy I used to work with had a neighbor who would come over when he was working on his car and drop a couple of extra bolts or nuts among the removed parts. Drove him crazy.
