    I'm with the "all of them" crew and at my age that would be a pretty damned long list.

    Back in the 70s I was building this Buick V6 powered Model A coupe, and it was about 75% finished.
    Then one night I got into a bar fight (I didn't start it)...I went to jail, the other guy (Dana) went to the hospital. To avoid jailtime, the judge ordered me to pay his medical bill (stitches and a cast) and Dana to pay for the damage to the bar (picture window and foosball table)
    Had to sell the A Bone to get the money. Got a buddy to give me $700 for it:(. Funny thing is, after 40+ years, Dana and I are good friends:)
