Making Noise when Making Noise Isn't Really Do
---Hey Jay!

How u doing?....I always seem to open my big mouth and cause trouble.
Honestly did not mean to cause a stir. There are always TWO sides
to every story...I guess I should have spoke about both
sides...eg....."If the original installer is at fault, Ernie should
give him a call....ON THE OTHER HAND....if the original gasket
installer IS NOT at fault, Ernie should just pay the bill and have a
Genesee cream ale"......( I use to hang around Bradford PA and drank
the stuff AFTER DEER hunting).....In summary, I kinda wish I would
have stayed on the beach and caused no trouble........
Thanks for your response. LOL
Regards,
Hank Hannigan
90SP36
ps...Ernie...have a lone star...do they still make it in Texas?
