...You clean engine parts in your kitchen sink and bathtub.

Delay your honeymoon three weeks so you can work it in between back-to-back Tour & Pro weekends in Ft. Myers.

....and when one of the honeymooners spins/slides the car into a pallet of cinder blocks...Honeymooner #2 hugs and tells Honeymooner #1 not to worry about it, that her safety is more important than some stupid old car....then moments later, kindly asks where the toe plates and duct tape are so they can check the alignment & tape up broken pieces so they and their co-driver can finish the weekend at the Pro Solo. This is, of course, is hypothetical example, just a work of fiction...I don't want Oprah to nail me on her show like the "Million Little Pieces" guy :-)

This situation never happened, so never ask fictious Honeymooner #1 or fictious Co-Driver #1 about this situation.

IIRC, Carl & ME spent their honeymoon at the Petersburg Pro Solo many moons ago.

Sincerely,
Anonymous Former Fictional Honeymooner #2

... store your race tires in the living room by putting a piece of plywood on top of them and calling it a coffee table.

...your tire trailer is in the garage and your lawn mower is outside.

hmmmm....

my new 710s and my new DA shocks are both sitting in what is supposed to be my dining room. Oh yeah... there is also a large rolling tool chest in there too. I guess I am guilty

....you put your couch into your storage unit so you have enough room to store your race tires in the living room of your 560 square foot temporary apartment while you look for a new house (between races, of course).
