    Oreilly&#39;s got the best quality parts next to NAPA topline. We can&#39;t flame you since you know cars somewhat. Hell, I went to get a a/c drier today and the woman at my Oreilly&#39;s didn&#39;t even know what one was.

    I tell you what I figured out real quick that I didn&#39;t know as much as I thought I did about cars. I guess because the stuff I have always messed with has been Chevy and it&#39;s been in specialized areas like drag racing stuff. I&#39;ll admit I don&#39;t know much about A/C either, just never had to mess with it.

    Does that mean you&#39;re a slumlord managing properites in the projects?

    Man, it sure feels like it sometimes. Commercial construction projects ranging from &#036;100,000 to &#036;20,000,000. Seems more like babysitting most of the time.
