I had an expensive lighter fall in some tranny fluid one time when i was younger. Decided to keep it as it was a gift and due to the cost of it. Everytime i lit it up, man all you could taste was the tranny fluid.I had to toss it. John, when i was younger,i always held my father up on top of a pedestal.Although in hindsight,i would question some of his judgement later in life but c'est la vie.Coming from not having much and having to make due with what he had, i think he did alright as far as being able to get us by.Those were some tough times and i guess some of those makeshift tricks helped keep food on the table for another day.He did instill in me the passion for classic american muscle, the ultimate gift a father can pass on to his child LOL
