That is a good one Wilton! In your case, it was "Put Otto in it" In my case, it was "Put it on Otto" Our B-52 wing commander at Kincheloe AFB, MI, for a while was Col. Otto Kovar; we called 'im "Otto Pilot."

Re: [MBZ] Patron saint of lost causes?
Curt. St Jude. Looks like an interesting challenge. As in "May you live in interesting times". Needs front spring. Is this rotten spring mount, or is it not applicable to 123's? There was an 87 124TD in Cow Hampshire for $1250 that I lusted after, had to settle for the 190DT for $350, plus going to fetch it. That's another story. Hope springs eternal.

Re: [MBZ] Patron saint of lost causes?
Well, it has 250k left, so you could probably get a lot of depreciation off the $750firm investment. Does New Hampster have inspection now? I thought it was still Live Free and Die up there. Must be the influence of all the massholes who moved up there to escape taxes, and brought all their bad habits with them. --R On 5/5/2010 11:33 AM, Curt Raymond wrote: Hey Fred who did you say was the patron saint of lost causes again? http://nh.craigslist.org/bar/1722632263.html Next town north from me.
