Steve Hi, I just joined two seconds ago.

One day several months later when I was picking my car up from the body shop for a separate incident, I remember Bobby the mechanic asking, "Mr. Jason? Did you hit some kind of dog or something? Because you got some gray fur caked up all on your undercarriage." Ah, the good ol' days!
