| Motorcars LTD Supports the Troops - OOH-RAH MASS-3 | |
The Story First Lieutenant Jonathan Edwards is a graduate of Texas A&M University, and is currently stationed in Fallujah, Iraq with the United States Marine Corps. He serves as the supply officer for the 3rd Marine Air Support Squadron (MASS-3). Motorcars Ltd has always “Supported the Troops” in one form or another over the years, and about a year ago, we started wearing “red shirts” on Fridays in a show of a company and personal expression of “Support for Our Troops”. The number of our people wearing red shirts has steadily grown to the point where it is hard to not find a red-shirted member of our staff on Fridays. Recently, employees of the company packed three boxes of “needed things” and sent them to Jonathan in hopes that it would make him smile… it did far more than make him smile – it made him and his fellow Marines happy – there were lots of “sharable” items in the boxes. That made us happy as well. But what really caught our attention was a note in one of the letters that said “it was really nice to know that we had not been forgotten”. ...click here to read the full story and see all the pictures of the event. |

| Troubleshooting Ground-based Electrical Problems in Early Series One Discoverys | |
As we all know by now, poor grounds can cause numerous problems on a 1994 - 1996 Discovery. The following are main ground locations and the components they effect. Later Series One Discos had these locations and several others, and frankly I can’t remember them all, so you’ll have to snoop around a little to find them all.

Let's face it -- English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? Doesn't it seem crazy that If teachers taught, why didn't preacher praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? If you wrote a letter, perhaps you bote your tongue? Why do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive on parkways? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another. Have you noticed that we talk about certain things only when they are absent? Have you ever seen a horseful carriage or a strapful gown? Met a sung hero or experienced requited love? Have you ever run into someone who was combobulated, gruntled, ruly or peccable? And where are all those people who ARE spring chickens or who would ACTUALLY hurt a fly? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm clock goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of course, isn't a race at all). That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this essay, I end it. |
