Cosmo and I have a good story of some years ago in the Kroger parking lot... he does a better job than I of telling it.

And along those lines you see, Cosmo having delivered mail as a past profession apparently has had quite an influence on his beloved truck. For over the weekend the little 49 1/2 ton had over 4 days of rest and relaxation and decided to "grow a pair" and is now a proper, shall we say, mail truck.

Grigg,

That is a bold statement my friend. I had no idea that my truck had 'grown a pair' and nearly choked on laughter as I turned the corner to load my road treasure in the old pick-up upon returning from ATHS MO with Grigg. Complicit in this act was Grigg's bride of five years, Accacia.
