Wow! I had no idea nurses were even allowed to grab other nurses. And you get paid a salary too?

I thought engineering was a pretty cool profession, but where I worked they even sent us to a class in case we didn't already know that it wasn't OK to grab fellow employees.

Don W's not a nurse (to the best of my knowledge). Yes he works in the health care industry, but I'll leave it to him to disclose his profession.

Thanks guys!
Hey Don, where/who's your screw guy (that doesn't sound right), but you know what I mean.

Damn! I hate it when reality intrudes on a pretty good fantasy. Somehow I can't help thinking that the world would be a much better place with nymphs and satyrs cavorting freely instead of, well, reality.

Wouldn't riding fast be cavorting?

I think that would depend upon the rider and whether he/she becomes sexually aroused when riding fast. For myself, not so much.

"Et tu" ZM? :D

Some time ago, I happened to discover that the thread size and pitch of the screws that hold the red light cover "glass" on to the rear light unit (of my late '80ies boxers) is the same as the vacuum port screws. Furthermore, they have Phillips heads, and thus won't fall off the screwdriver as the OE screws do. If you fail to source a "genuine" vacuum port screw, and have one spare, just cut it down to the required length (6mm).

Now that is useful bit of info! :)
