Nevr-Dull

[scirocco16vr32 at gmail.com (Chris Bennett)]

Ok I am gonna risk showing some ignorance... ;)  More so than usual...

The stock tear drops are clear coated?  I have an 87 16v.  There was a
small area that was curb-rashed and I tried a little bit there.  It is
supposedly safe for all metals.  Anyway it was dark by this point so I
will have to see it tommorow to really see if it made a difference. 
They appear to me bare aluminum to me.

Oh well I have one extra tear drop in case I jacked this one up.

On a side note, I fixed about 10 small things that have been bugging
me today and I polished the chrome tips on the R.  As usual the FLAPS
people are idiots.  I went into one with a 55watt H3 foglight bulb and
asked for a replacement for an aftermarket set of fogs.  He INSISTED
on knowing what kind of car it was for, despite the fact that I kept
repeating that they were after market.  I know I shouldn't argue with
stupid people, as I have fears as to whether I myself have sunk to
their stupidity by even trying to show them that they don't know what
the hell they are talking about... but still I try.  Every time I
repeated that it was aftermarket I said it a little louder.  And
finally just under the level of full on screaming I told him that
aftermarket meant that I added them LATER like 15+ years after the
bloody thing was built.

Somehow I don't think I am welcome back at that store.  I need to stop
this I am running out of places to go.  LOL  I really mess them up
when I go in to get stuff for the 85.  They really want me to believe
that my car has an 8v motor.  So lately I just say it's an 88, unless
I am doing brakes or something like that.

It reminded me alot of the drunken sailor universal translation method
that was often employed when I was overseas; it seems that after
enough alcohol is consumed, no matter what country you are in, no
matter what language the natives speak if you repeat yourself louder
each time in slurred english, they will understand.  Eventually... 
And nobody can convince you otherwise.  LOL

The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the
things you get ashamed of because words diminish your feelings - words
shrink things that seem limitless when they are in your head to no
more than living size when they are brought out.
That is the worst I think... when a secret stays locked inside not for
want of a teller, but that of an understanding ear.
