Ferrari Mailing List: Re: How to remove TR water pump

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

Hmmmmm - interesting bottom line there Clyde.  heh heh

I worked with a fellow who had about the same philosophy - used to go around 
asking the rhetorical question when asked if one should do this or that - 
He would ask "do you know how to keep a hard on?  Don't fuck with it." 
While it never made sense to me then, as a 19 year old, - after all, what DO 
you DO with a hard on - - - but then he was quite a bit older, maybe in his 
50's and pretty surly so I never fucked with him.
Onward
