Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

Nice story Tiger (and Raj).  I can relate to the kitchen table being used as a work bench growing up. Often times my dad performed surgery on small appliances, did leather working projects, drafted plans for the next woodworking project, helped us with our model cars and planes, etc. Many times mom would come in and say, "clear off the table, it's dinner time!"  Sometimes we'd just push our stuff to the end leaf and gather 'round the remainder of the table. She did draw the line at small engine repair however. That we did in the garage.

Especially liked how he used the Panther to haul trailers, the broken 305 to the shop, and the 450 to the races! What a work horse!  :)
