Drew I read your response about the battery for Brooke's phone. I did misunderstand the type of phone so my first assumption was correct that it is a cell phone. Anyway the battery that I got on Amazon is a new battery. The offered both new and used. The battery for my BB at Verizon was over 40.00 and I think I got the one delivered from Amazon for well under ten. I just figured it was worth a shot. Just need the number ot the battery.

Long and interesting story Gregg. Hope life is much better for you now. One thing for certain, what goes around, does come around! I have been waiting to see some of it come around at my work. I been there going on 17 years and I have seen it a few times.

It's in Valley Park, on Marshall Road near 6th St. I wouldn't have known it was there except last year they towed my husband's car there when an older person ran into him. His car was totaled. They don't have a lot of cars on the property (maybe 50) but it's fun to drive by and look. This is the first time I've seen a Monte there.

Cheer up. Groundhog day is Feb. 2nd, just a couple of weeks away and spring comes on March 20, at least on the calendar. If that's not soon enough it is spring here in Florida. LOL.

[quote=Ricks 2006 SS;406843]See if it has canutin valve??.

Step-child: Your knowledge knows no bounds. I've never run across a man who knew so much about cars, and liked to tell people about it. To be helpful, of course. Tonight I have only one question for you: what exactly is a canutin valve? Does it connect to the nutin?

I know you're a very wise and busy man, but please take the time to answer this question so I can sleep tonight. It's just wonderful the way you reach out to those of us on the Forum and share your immense wisdom with all.

Well when the storms rolled through (around 1400) it was in the mid 60s. It's now almost 1900 and it's 39 degrees. Supposed to get down to mid to upper 20s before the temp starts dropping. I don't like this. At least I'll be at work and indoors the whole time.

Guess I'll get dressed and head into work. Hopefully things run smoothly unlike last night.

Amy, I love the keychain with the Knight's Crest. I knew my fellow Monte lovers would give me some ideas for the salvage yard. It should be fun to look over the car and find out why its there. From the street I didn't see any obvious damage. Hope it doesn't belong to one of the people working there. They might not appreciate it if they catch me crawling around the car with a pair of pliers, dismantling as I go.
