Bummer,

Kinda like the story of the four bee's. They were flying along and came
to a four way intersection. Now  there were four different gas stations
- a BP, a Gulf, an Esso, and a Sinclair. They considered buzzing down
and being pesky to the drivers of cars getting gassed.  After some
deliberation, they decided agin it -   and then flew on by - deciding
better options were ahead. Then,  just as they got past the intersection
- one bee who was straggling a bit, changed his mind, and peeled of into
a dive right at a lady in a mini-skirt bent over pumping her own gas. at
the Esso station. Mayhem ensued!!!

Moral:? In every crowd there is an Esso Bee!!

Sorry about your parts.
