Sounds like a legal contract for people who don't wear clothes.

I use them on everything, never have had a problem with them. The mechanism works very smooth so that if you want to put solenoids and poppers on a car, the latches will work good with the solenoids.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

So I guess that whole thing about ''Sounds like a legal contract for people who don't wear clothes'' is just an ol' wives tale HUH Dave??? HEHEHEHEOriginally posted by Dave Severson

ummmm. I believe that only applies to ex-Iwegians living in Illinois now. But anywho, is an old wives tale anything like an ex-wives tale? Just wondering.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
