Be Observant, and aware, he's on the Left Coast

Guys, I got a strange phone call today. Well, this evening. From some guy named Ron Madio. (RoninLB) He claimed to be in SW Oregon, but from the highway number he gave, I think it was more likely SE Oregon. Hey, what's a few hundred miles once you are west of the Hudson river, right? It's all wilderness past that... Anyway, seems this NY guy was looking for a place to change oil in his car. I hope to see him tomorrow or the next day,and we'll attempt to do just that....and hell, we might even offer a bed, a hot shower, and a good meal. That is, if he doesn't get eaten by a Cougar between where he is and here. Stay tuned...I may even allow him to make a post...

Hell, Paul! He might even get eaten by a hungry Nutria, if he stops to take a leak at the wrong place!

Louisiana Trained Attack Nutria. And yes, he sleeps beside my bed at night. So choose your entrance carefully.

So Paul; *if* you let him post, will it be as Junior Member RoninLC (Ron in Lynn County) or RoninNA (Ron in North America)?

Sorry Sarah, I don't have a digicam, so probably won't be a pic. Heck, I'm so computer illiterate, I'm glad I can figure out how to do this. Thanks to Rufblackbird I can post a few pics of my car...I snail mailed snapshots to him, he kindly scanned them & sent back to me. Guys, when Ron gets here, I'm sure he'll want to post...we'll figure something out. Matt, thanks for your kind offer, the message will be delivered. I'm sure the guys at your work will enjoy Ron! Oh...why did the chicken cross the road? To show the nutria and possum that it could be done..

hope you have alot of cold beer in the fridge pwd. it is one of the necessary accompaniaments to a good oil change. have to have at least 3 or 4 cans while the oil is draining alone.

ahh, the smell of hot oil and the taste of cold beer...
