After reading some stories on here I decided to give it a shot.
I am a Auto technician by trade, so this young kid tells me he is selling his car. I bought it but it doesn't run. I have to go get before he moves. So my brother and I go to get this car and me being the great technician I am think we can get it running and drive it home. So my brother and I are working on this car its about this time of year and leaves are everywhere. I am dumping gas down the carb trying to get it to fire when it backfires and sets leaves on fire. I yelled at brother to go the the house and get some water or garden hose. I am left to put out fire.
By this time all the leaves around and in car are on fire so I shuck my shirt off and am doing my best to get fire out. Brother hollers I cant find any hose. I yell well get something. I am continuing to beat out fire . It seems like an hour has went by but probably less than ten min. I have fire out, my shirt is same as ruined, I am exausted and my brother shows up with a old plastic bottle with water in it. I laugh and said what you want me to do with that drink it.
I take a trailer to get cars now. LOL He tells that story all the time.
