      No, no, no. You just don't take the parts that you need from someone else's Volvo 220 ... that would be so wrong... you swap the broken parts from your 220 with someone else's 220, he'll never notice. Let the other guy pay the Volvo dealer to fix the machine.

This channel isn't about running. And I don't use FB Messenger. So YT ad analytics is absolutely nailing it with properly targeted advertising. Not. There's an old joke about advertising. The ad exec laments "I know half of my ad dollar spending is wasted. I just don't know WHICH half!"

I see the same Acendum sticker that has been on machines you and Uncle John have run. You need one of those "purty blinkin` lights" like he has on top on your 220. Still getting more rain here on top of the 4 inches for the past 36 hours. Might have been able to fill the pond you just finished.
