I can identify with that, RR. Both my wife's Malibu and my fine old Dodge have those ball pein hammer dings. I'm waiting for 100 degree days to try the ice trick.Quote:

Dang it! When the video is over the TV broadcast (The Weather Channel) keeps blabbing and I can't figure out what to do about it. Sorry.
Every year the City of Fort Worth has a big celebration they call "Mayfest". Several years ago one of my co-workers and his son hopped in their brand new Mazda pickup and went to Mayfest. While they were there a legendary softball size hailstorm made its presence known. They ran for the parking area and got there just as those cannon balls started hitting. Sam and the boy rolled under the truck.
I am told that the next ten minutes or so were stressful.
The Mazda was reduced to total scrap.
It has to be that global warming stuff we hear tell about!
