Another Crazy Idea
Speaking of “find a need and fill it,” (see The Turbo Charger October 5, 2021, #866 issue) take a look at this impressive ball point pen with hand sanitizer built into the barrel. Who thought of that?
Front Row Seat
This past Saturday, I attended in my first Georgia Street Rod Association (GSRA) monthly business meeting. The meeting was held at Street Side Classic’s showroom east of Atlanta in Lithia Springs, GA.
Do You Like Your Job?
Earlier today, Donna Lee was in the pre-op area of Piedmont Hospital in Athens, GA. She was being prepped for double by-pass open-heart surgery.

The Art of Conversation
A few months ago, my mechanic David and I were working on my 37 Ford hot rod project. It was well past noon, I said, “Come on, we’ve got to get some lunch!” So, off we went to my favorite restaurant, Sister’s Family Restaurant.
The Big Move
Passing through Utah, eastbound on our 2021 Cross Country Adventure, I made the follow up call we promised to Jenni. We’ve stayed in touch with her even though it’s been 20 years since she worked for Turbo Leadership Systems®.
