we always had a few unregistered cars on the road. That's life with $14K a

in '70 did that and got mugged, and if my foggy memory is correct, the
muggers went off with their car, leaving them with the broken one.  Of
course that may have been a sea story to escape the consequences of being
late for duty; I knew the people but not the circumstances."

I myself did 11 years in the US navy (submarines).  Is there some connection
between Westfalias and ex-squids?  Maybe it's wanderlust...or the constant
maintenance...or maybe just living in a confined area... Any ideas? How many
of you are out there?

Happy Friday!  Long weekend in Canada...
