Had a reasonably good night's sleep, for a change.

What he said.

It was on O2 sensor that kicked the Check Engine light into life.  No reason was found for the oil leak.  They put some dye in the oil.  I'm to drive it and bring it back in a month for a regular oil change (or sooner if I notice a problem) and they'll use a black light to see what they can see.  Needless to say I'm driving quite cock-eyed, one eye on the road and one eye on the instrument panel looking for an oil light to go on.  Diagnostics and repairs were about $330.

Finished up the house I was working on and got paid cash :thumbup:
In the mix of bills where 3 1950 D series twenties  one very nice but unfortunately  not worth more than face value

Gee, in 1950, twenty dollars was a lot of money.

That's pretty common.

If your oil light goes on, the engine is on the verge of self-destruction and should be shut off instantly.

Just make sure when they fix the oil leak, that they use O2 sensor safe silicone sealant.

Do you want to hear my blown seal joke??

An eskimo brings his snowmobile into the shop and it's leaking oil. The mechanic looks at it and says "it looks like you blew a seal". The eskimo says "no, that's just frost on my mustache". :oneliner:

The bank was open late tonight, so I was able to stop in on my way home and get $70 worth of quarters for the laundry machines.  :thumbup:

Oh, laundry in the building is actually quite cheap...$1 to wash and $1 to dry. So I will be able to do 35 loads of wash
with the $70 in quarters! I just like to stock up on lots of quarters when I can.   :2thumbsup:

Not sure they will do that, they might give you some penny/nickel/dime/quarter papers so you can put the change into rolls.   :orly:
