[Vwdiesel] The Eurovan is dead

[Tad]

A while back Costco was selling two-packs of small extinguishers designed
for the car.  I bought one for me and one for my wife.

Way back when I was 15 or so I was at the local mini-mart and a girl drove
up (in a Jetta if I recall) with smoke coming from under the hood.  Popped
the hood to find that the engine was on fire.

The clerk came out with the extinguisher but couldn't figure out how to
operate the damn thing, so I took it from her, pulled the pin and put out
the fire.

Just goes to show you, some people can't operate even the simplest
machines... :)

That reminds me - my car extinguisher has been sitting in the garage for
months now...
