Subject:      Favorite Questions While Fixing the Bus (f)
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Dave O'Shea, in his Contagious Car Problems post, wrote:

<<<snip>>> At this point my wife enters the garage and asks: "How long before the car's fixed?" (This is my second favorite question, right after: "Are you sure you know what you're doing?") <<<snip>>>

Which got me to wondering, "What does my wife say, while I'm working on the bus, that's my favorite question?" And I came up with not one, but two: "Does it need to be towed this time?" and "Are you sure you don't want to trade it in for a station wagon?" And I don't know which I like more... :o)

But the all-time favorite does not come from the wife, but from my five year old, who frequently "helps" by sticking screwdrivers into the engine compartment in places where they don't belong. "Daddy, why'd you say f**k a duck?" (OOPS!!)

Okay Vanagonland, what's your favorite question from your spouse/partner/child while working on the bus? Maybe we can compile a "Top Ten"...
