    Blast from the past find in attic

    Found a “lost” coffee mug that was available from Mercury back when Lassie was a pup , it’s white and has a picture of an antique Mercury motor labeled “Then” it stays that way until hot liquid is added ( tea, coffee ) then the dark area magically turns into a 15” short shaft DRAG MOTOR and sez “Now” .... It been misplaced for years , how many of you old guys own one ???

    I have one of those old fashioned flip phones, that is at least as smart as me. Does not receive pictures.

    With all of your bid-ness creds, you do not know how to post pictures online?
    Serious question.

    I seen some pictures of your work, posted by a very happy customer, recently. The thought ran through my head that only a few things would make that post better. Pictures of the motor when it arrived at your shop. Pictures of the motor as it moved through your shop.

    The rest of what you say, Jay, I completely understand. I live in a small city and spend as much of my time out of it as I can. No internet, crappy cell, but dark and quiet at night. And another thing I thoroughly understand, I do not have to work myself to death to get ahead, I am already ahead. Cheers!!!!!!!
