Wow, VL1UKZ, this is KC2PKG, you're living like a rock star. Wheels are flying off your car and all that stuff. I had problems with using bolts for tires. And one, I was in Alaska, I was on the McKenzie Highway, which goes up through the mountains, Brooks Range, and all the way up to the oil drilling areas. And on my way back, there was this banging, and it was the nuts had come off the tire. They just fell off in the road. And we had to steal nuts from other tires and put them back on. And we finally, we got down to, what's it called? Is it Frozen River or something like that? Anyway, it's right next to the Stikine River. And we had to, well, they only fixed trucks there. And so what he did was he found a couple of extra bolts. He put the regular bolts back on the other tires. And he only had three of them. And he twisted them on so hard they welded on. So I had to go to a Canadian Tire when I finally got back to Fairbanks. And they, you know, well, they ripped the bolts off. And they had to put new studs in because they had been welded, just by the pressure of putting them on. So that's pretty wild. Anyway, I'm glad you're okay. I'm glad no one was hurt. It's quite a story, though. You always have a good story. You really do. All right. Anybody else want to get on the Monday morning edition of the Cowabunga Net? I have to warn you, there's a pop quiz. But come down with your call sign. This is KC2PKG.
