More proof...Hopskinville Ky...
Should have come by the house. OK, not that close, but it's pretty close.

Got most everything done that I wanted to do. Replaced the headlamp. There was a high pitched squeal, wasn't sure if it was bearings or the belt. Took a close look and the belt was walking a little bit, and at engine off it was actually hung out over the edge of the tensioner a bit. You know me and tensioners, I go through them about every 58,000 to 65,000 miles, and this one has 62,000 on it, so I changed it. The belt no longer walks and it's lined up line it's supposed to be. Still had the squeal, though, but a little Comet on the belt via a straw took care of that. Must had some residual coolant or something on it. I also has a coolant leak, but it was in the heater hose above the engine. Loose clamp.

I also replaced the Fan-Tastic Vent fan with a new one, the spiffy one with the remote control and the 14 fan speeds. Also put the new Fan-Tastic UltraBreeze vent cover on top of it to keep the rain out. Lower profile and more airflow. Looks kewl, the chicks are gonna love it.

The new debit card was waiting for me when I got home. Got all the automatics coming out of the bank account changed in time. So all is well on that, until someone steals it again I suppose.

I want to thank all those, including Load 1, who offered to help if I needed. Especially Rocketman who actually took the time and effort to come to where I was parked and offer to help. That was greatly appreciated, and pretty awesome. :D

This BOL is very light. No way that the scan is going to be acceptable. What do I need to do? I dont see anyway to adjust the scanner or the image??

The scanner normally does great...its just light ink on this bol.

Go ahead and scan it anyway Ken. It may show up ok. If not, they will tell you.

The important thing is that you scan it so they have it.

I love the southern omelet. But I have them do it with no green peppers, they don't like me.
