Howard,

I assumed when reading this that Bruce meant the Mexican 'southern
states', rather than the US southern states.

Bruce - I'd include a spare air bag of each size if your Bird has air
suspension.

only happens in the south. How niave can you be, corruption knows no
bounderies or borders. I'm 62 years old and was a traveling salesman
most of my working life. I have never seen "your corruption in the south".
