[HAM] Green Hammond and recap

[goffmac747 at aol.com]

 Haha, I once pulled up in front of Guitar Center when it was downtown San Diego. There was no parking lot to that branch as it was all eastern city type street parking. I had a lime green Fiat station wagon that I had picked up in Omaha and drove it all over to gigs through out the south west. It was old, coming form snow and salt ridden Nebraska. I'll never forget the manager's comment when he looked out his window and said. "Who's piece of death is that parked outside..."

While this is sort of OT, I just have to post it.  I know most (ALL) of us 
struggle to live within our means, and sometimes that means driving a car 
that could use a little fixing up.  I think these ideas could work for 
things other than cars as well.  At least if you insist on painting your 
Hammond green......

I'd have never believed it!  But my 95 Dodge pickup with the leprosy 
paintjob may be getting the treatment this summer......
