Subject:      a 7-10 cap?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I've gotta get on a plane (no, I can't take the vanagon unfortunately) for a visit with my parents in chicago today (thursday), so I can't wait for friday to send this... but I knew you volks would appreciate it...

The other day I was in the flaps. A lady comes in and asks for a seven ten cap. We all looked at each other and said, "What's a seven ten cap?"

She said, "You know, it's right on the engine. Mine got lost some how, and I need a new one."

What kind of a car is it on," they asked? Now I'm thinking maybe an old Datsun Seven Ten, but no, she said it's a Buick.

"OK lady, how big is it?"

She makes a circle with her hands about 3 1/2 inches in diameter.

"What does it do?" we asked.

She said, "I don't know but it's always been there."

One of us gave her a note pad and asked her if she could draw a picture of it. So she makes a circle about 3 1/2 inches in diameter and in the center she writes 710.

The guys behind the counter are looking

at it upside down as she writes it...and they just fall down behind the counter.
