My wife is going to kill me... :D

2 things...

1. I'm still alive.
2. The wife hasn't complained even a little about all the military generators and heaters.

Hm..

A wife not complaining about your expenditures... beware that's a very ominous sign! She's either forging your will or has already spent the profits you hope to make off this investment!

Or both!

Well since your ultimate demise is imminent might I suggest you gift the offending gensets to the members of this site to be raffled off.

It would be looked upon as a kind act and frankly you need all the help you can get. Members here would give an outpouring of gratitude and sympathy in your memory. I'm just saying...

Diesel, if you don't get zapped you can spend a few months in my S250 shelter till she gives up the search. Just be care full at night when you go out to pee, the coyotes around here can't be trusted.

oh she is complaining. Just no about generators. The car has become the focus of her dissatisfaction.

She finally rode in it last night. I don’t think it was the horrible experience she expected. I did have the exhaust set to “quiet” mode.

Tell her about all the mods you plan going to the car. She will appreciate the info.

In 1986, in El Paso, one of my soldiers came to me and said, "Chief, my wife has locked me out of the house. I spent the night in the shop. Please come with me to the house. My wife likes you, maybe you can convince her to let me back in." I had my strong doubts about that, but he was a good worker. So over in the low rent district we went. As we pulled up, I noticed about 9-10 cars with license plates from Mexico on them, parked up and down the street. There was a swarm of people pawing through a mountain of crap, in the driveway of this young mans house. I looked over at him and said, "We may be a little late." Later that day, I got him installed in the barracks, and loaned him some money for 3 sets of new BDU's.

He shoulda been smart enough to lock the shop before he left. Ask me how I know....

Okay, I'll bite, how do you know?

I hear a "Been there, done that" story potentially coming! (Or not if he is wise. Leave no evidence to be found.)

She can only talk about the car right now. While she is fixated on it I'm working to get the rest of the generators on the way to their new homes. Then I'll be able to say "What generators??"

OK...here goes. My first wife was, putting it mildly, less than morally upright. The 'shop' at the time was a 28X32 barn with a model railroad on the 2nd floor. When things started to get really bad towards the end of the marriage, I'd noticed things missing from inside the house. So, one weekend while she was away at a "friend's", all the trains not on the layout made a quiet midnight exit. She's long gone. Still have the trains. Sometimes you hafta CYA
