    Why would you put a roofing nail in your sidewall of the tire? I would think it would have been smarter to put it in the side wall of your house. then you could have used it to hang a picture or something.:biggrin5:

    I thought about my MINI today... And looked at it. Twice.

    Still trying to figure out the easiest way to get: one running car, one non running car, and all my stuff to the other side of the country as easily and as cheap as possible... Moving my personal crud is easy, packing up everything in the garage is going to be the real killer! Then if I get this house that I really want all of that garage stuff is going to have to sit in storage in Robbinsville until mine is built.

    Yeah, lots of stuff going on, so I'm not on here much right now.

    I was on my way to work, turned a corner to go up a hill, saw this Countryman going the other way, driver with big grin on his face. I waved at him and he waved back!!! :eek6: Totally caught me by surprise.

    Obviously a happy motorer.

    Picked up a valve cover gasket set, hoping that will solve the CEL that says 'downstream air leak' (or words to that effect) once installed. Also hoping I don't find a crack in GD valve cover.

    I got my MINI washed today. Got the whole inside and out package. No, I didn't do it myself. The weather is great right now, but ragweed pollen is off the charts. Ragweed pollen is my kryptonite. The end result is pretty much the same -- my MINI looks pretty and smells good inside.

    By "down South," are you talking Cincinnati, or down here where people talk different?
