Then when I pulled onto the shoulder, one rear wheel locked up. Then I smelled the heat.... thought oh no, its broked. Just the parking brake. But no fire that time.
The fire was the day I picked up our secretary who needed a ride in that day. I had done the clutch the day before, and left a greasy rag hanging on the exhaust pipe. The drive to the secretary's was just far enough to get it lit as I drove up to her. She says "What an entrance", thinking I did it on purpose. A quick swat took the fire out. Same gal wanted to take me to the hospital one Saturday morning, I looked sick. Swine Flu of '78 was going around. She wouldn't talk to me again once she found out it was just a really bad hang over...
Fires, hangovers, Goodie-two-shoes... La Chaim!
