I just spoke with Armando on the phone, he said that Yahoo has been messing up their website the past two days. He said we can go to Betterbodiesmotorsport.com to order and browse.

Or too old and out of touch to use Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or MySpace. Email and fax is fine.

Ever use a real xerox? With acetone and a big drum you hand cranked with a original attached to make copies? The copies came off wet and cold.

Ahh, I used to love the smell.

Yes. May have been a mimeograph. Thought it was an original xerox. Big drum and carbon paper.
