61Apache 10, what you read here may make you mad (or not) or infuriate you for the lack of sympathy 'cause you can't drive your stovebolt right now. You may not yet have encountered TROTWOT (the rest of the world out there), and if not, get ready.
TROTWOT is full of old codgers just like the stovebolters here, but a lot less friendly. And your best defense is a good education that continues until you die at a very old age with many, many stovebolts ensconsed in a well lighted, fully equipped, climate controlled garage.
What may seen tough to swallow today will be mild pablum soon enough.
Just remember, your Dad is not raising a child or a teenager--he is raising an adult and expects you to be one, even now.
