      Did the customer bell still ring when you ran over the hose?

      "you say your car stopped running after you filled up here? Well it must be your car."
      they just keep getting better packrat! I feel for you, its got to be hard to find places that are more "classic" with each post. Thanks , Mikie

      Thank you very much EJW-54, PhilDavidAlexanderMorris & officialfuel. May by in Dec. or Jan. when the rattlesnakes are hibernating. A friend if mine got bit and they had to take his finger off at the second knuckle.

      this place is just in a slump, business will pick up anytime now.
