Good news, well sorta....
got under the S a bit and tried to turn the drive shaft. it turned and the axles turned too. so i grabbed the axles, snapped both of um. one was clicking and i knew i was gunna have to replace it soon. My guess is when i launched the car it broke the week axle and then sent all the power to the other one and broke it too

There's tons of hungry cats at the shelter - let me pick out a few and bring them to you Mark 
I have put less miles on my S this year than any previous year for the time of year... even last year when I hurt my back I had more miles on the Berlina
The longer cold weather, the continued rain, and the lack of drives. I do enjoy driving the car alone but for some reason it's just so much more fun with a few others <heavy sigh>
The S is buried at the back of the driveway right now, filthy
Supposed to have t storms tomorrow then be nice again Thursday and Friday. With the car show on Sunday I guess it will get some TLC Friday or Saturday

We have been putting a lot of miles on the S this weekend. Took a bath in SPF 85 so I would not burn up. Did back roads to Scanandaga around the lake and to Lake George friday night.We hit Sacandaga at dusk the lake was like glass. Saturday tried to go back up after yard work and go thru Warrensburg out rte 28. Ended up turning back at Lake George because of lighting in the mountains. Sunday did part of the Rte 28 out to Indian lake and back. Had to be back for a party in Saratoga. Monday we went up thru Speculator and did the loop back to Lake George. All in all some nice smooth asphalt but not enough twisties.
This coming weekend I have to do a training seminar at the Tow truck convention in Lake George but after that we may run to Lake Placid and see what we can find.

You got a parts car stowed away somewhere within the confines of the Cone Mansion?
or twelve.
