Just wanted to say how much I enjoy reading Jason Togyer's Tube City Almanac. News of the greater McKeesport area (including Pittsburgh), commentary on the comics, politics in general, historical photos (some of which I've posted to Pittsburgh Signs), and some amusing thoughts on day-to-day life, including this bit on fixing his car.
This is a totally voluntary endorsement, but if you drive an old heap or are restoring one, like me, and it needs a new carburetor, you may want to try National Carburetors of Jacksonville, Fla. Their service was good, the price was reasonable, the quality of the carb they sent me appears to be very high, and the car started on the first try.Posted by mastr at May 6, 2004 11:11 PMWell, actually, the second try. On the first try, we blew the vent caps off of the battery with an accompanying shower of sparks and flames.
Um, don't try that at home. Do it at a friend's house, like I did!
