[Vwdiesel] hitch saga

[Tad]

I lived in Klamath Falls in the 90s... I know the feeling.  And that was
before ecommerce got going very big, so basically if you couldn't get it at
WalMart or Fred Meyer, you were driving an hour to Meford... if you were
lucky enough to find it there.

That was okay though, it was an excuse to get the hell out of K Falls. :)
