You've asked and I'll answer. This response is brief.

The pea under the mattress (Rapuzel Died on the Third Floor) was that my large kitchen Cuisinart was being used outside to "sift" compost for potting soil.

Come to think of it, maybe it was enough to launch the rocket.

Enough said?

An empty bottle does not a party make. Nor does the damn bear upstairs.

Houston, I think we have lift-off. Dad used to rebuild his transmission on the kitchen table.

I once used one of my wife's great grandmothers pot to change the oil in her car. I thought I was doing her a favor while she took a walk...and then she came home and saw what I was using. Needless to say, I didn't get ANY points for changing her oil. I feel your pain.

@ Tom C: Kitchen tables are perfect for transmission rebuilds considering the need to keep dust and foreign matter out of the trans (particuloarly autos).
