REEELLAAAAX a little Joe. Just go with the flow. This is a trip down memory lane.
45 years ago some young men would buy muffler bearings at Marc's Arco Station. They had a part number for inventory. Legend has it that.... Marc was a "buyer" for muffler bearings and gave them a part number so his wife wouldn't get wise to his supply activities. And yes...they were high speed and lubricated for longevity. Or so I am told.... In a small town Marc was a necessity as we had blabby mouthed drug store clerks who were real nosey.
I mean what the hell...we had a "buyer" for beer and other thirst quenchers!
Our company controller was having her car serviced several years ago. I ask her how many miles she had on it and if she had ever changed the blinker fluid. She said no, should it be changed? With a straight face I told her to have them put in synthetic blinker fluid and they would work better. She called her husband who was at the dealer with her car and had him tell the dealer to change the blinker fluid, and he ask the dealer to change it!!!. The company I work for sells instruments. I told one of the sales ladies the problem her customer was having with the instrument was that it was being used in South America and the readings came out different because it was south of the equator. Had that lady going for about 10 minutes.
