So Friday we dropped off the radiator at the apartment where
he is squatting. It seems that it was also his birthday so the wife bought him
a present; a set of tools. Now the wife has her own money and when she buys
presents and such I usually don't give a ratsazz but as I saw this set of tools
arise from the back of her Durango I had to ask WTF. "So why is it when I
get a birthday present it's something cheesy yet he gets a friggin' set of
tools?" The wife looks at me and says "You already have a set of
tools in that box in the back of the shed." Well I'll be a SOB. Women are
a sly species ain't they.
The radiator swap
went well it seems but the the M-I-L calls to "chat" with the wife.
These "chats" are just her way of letting us know what we need to
waste money on next. It seems now that the radiator is fixed we are on to the
next issue. at least 1 head gasket is blown. The wife kindly informed her that
we were done with the matter and hung up the phone. I looked at her and she
says "What?". "How many times have I heard that phrase?" I
asked. She then asked how much head gaskets cost for a 5.2l Dodge. I said
"That depends". "Is it one or both heads, is/are the heads
warped, will he be doing this task all by himself, does he even know the torque
spec's......." It was about at this point the wife stopped me. "I get
it" she said.
Now the B-I-L has a
vehicle that I bought, he blew up, I paid $100 in parts and still doesn't run.
What happens next? Well let's just say my Trans-Am keys are now in my pocket.
