I know the feeling. I have some off brand crap tires that the body shop put on my car when I got run off the road at the Atlanta airport about 2 years ago. Dry pavement, fine. Wet pavement, they spin like crazy. I'm going to get some new tires and an FEA in a couple of weeks. It's been raining a lot here lately and I'm tired of my wife bitching at me about taking it easy at the red lights.

I have met your wife.

She doesn't bitch.

She advises.

You certainly have a way with words, my friend! LMAO We're heading to the hospital for her latest surgery now.

That's what my Dad does to my Mom when she is driving him around. She doesn't use those terms, but means the same thing. It's much worse when she drives my car.

On a related note; my Dad wanted me to get a portable car battery charger for the Explorer. So I used that as an excuse to get some things I needed for a long time. Among those things is a Ford ECM relay connector. One of the terminals broke off of the casing of the original ECM relay connector. I helsd that terminal whilst connecting the relay, but I may replace it for peace of mind. I will see when I go for another 1st start attempt.

Everything is great, derf! Dr. Bromine removed the lump and said it APPEARS to be a necrotic lipoma. She didn't see any signs of cancer, but of course, sent it to pathology for testing. As far as surgeries go, this was one of the easiest ones for Re and as you know, she's had a LOT of surgeries. Funny how the one she was worried about the most was one of the easiest. Thanks for asking, my friend. I hope all is well with you and Brenda.

Thanks, Andy. Right now she's kind of like one of the 7 Dwarfs (Grumpy) but I understand. I just let her roll with it and I do the same.
