Thanks, **norinew** , I’ll pass on your kind words, and all those of the other posters.

It took me 40 years to get that Vespa. Maybe I’ll sell it after I’ve had it for 40 years. Or after some knucklewalking methane-breather flattens me…

Best wishes to **Bakermom** and note to the universe: enough already! No more moms getting run down or near run down, no more hurricanes, just give us a little break, huh?
