Then I had to stand there with a dumb look of my face, along with my crew, on my dime...while she thumbed through "A Better Homes and Gardens"...outta be against the law to sell shit like that to wimmen. The grout issue was from watching an interior designer on HGTV, who stated that charcoal grout went better with black and SS appliances. I bought every kind of grout they sold...and she selected black.
Personally, I thing it's gonna look like shit on a white chicken, but who asked me? There ought to be a law against HGTV, and any of those mindless home improvement shows as well.
Just the price of poker, I guess.

I hung on to the old dually long as I could. It needed a clutch that really wasn't hard to put in, but I only used it to bring in hay. I found a guy that sells hay and delivers it to me cheaper than I was buying it and going after it. Plus I figured it was one less automobile to keep tagged and insured. Still got the 79 Camaro my wife bought in highschool, but it's not going anywhere. Thats how I met my wife, by working on that car. Our daughter wants the car so bad she can't stand it, but it isn't happening.
