    Aw Nuts

    We got on the highway and about a mile up the road we had a blow out.

    Between the time it took for AAA to get there and the other errands we had I would only have had about 30 minutes to fence. So much for my triumphant return. Well I didn't want to fence today any way. Next week for sure.

    A blow out? O_o Sheesh! That blows (no pun intended ) Still, I'm glad to hear you're trying again next week.

    Even our family mechanic said it beats the heck out o him as to why it happened. I immediately went into "lawyer mode" and said, "hmm, sounds like manufacturer's defect to me." We all laughed.

    Are Aw Nuts the store-brand version of Grape Nuts? Or a venereal condition?
    Use the Shift key, people! Keyboard manufacturers everywhere are ineffably saddened when you ignore what they made just for you!

    Neither. It's a new type of lugnut for wheels. Causes blowouts and consequently "Aww Nuts."
