Had a flat tire on the boat while I was between the farm and home, closer to home. No jack in the pickup, must be why there was no spare also when I bought it. So I called the wife and told her to bring a hydraulic jack I had in the garage. Told her exactly where it was when I last saw it a month ago. She informs me that it's not there because she cleaned the garage last weekend. Thankfully some young guy comes along who magically has a floor jack in his car.
 
What's a Hoda?
I could be wrong but I think Grace Jones used to wear them a lot.

When I lose something I always ask myself a question like, "If I were a remote, where would I hide?" It usually doesn't work but does succeed in driving the kids crazy.
I go back through my route, but it sounds like Dean already did that.

Dean: Check the freezer, the dishwasher, and on the tank of the toilet you use most frequently.

I wish I had that. I wouldn't mind boating as much. Right now I do all the work and everyone else enjoys it, I'm tired and exhausted by the he end of the day. Wife refuses to learn to drive it, but with son getting older, maybe he will.

"Get behind that wheel; Daddy wants to ski!!!"

For Mother's Day next year get her a spot in a boating course. She will love you for it.

Years ago I totaled a tire and rim on CWW#2's Lexus driving down to Ames at night in a heavy rain storm. Concrete block had fallen off a truck and I hit it dead on. Was trying to jack up the car on I-35 in the rain, in the dark, on a rain softened shoulder and the jack was sinking and tipping. Oh, **** time and then this dude in an old car pulls up. A car full of stuff. You've seen them, back seat filled to the ceiling with junk and trash, basically the car version of the trash or hoarder house. He pops his trunk, rummages around through all of the junk and pulls out a floor jack!

Not my wife. She hates new things. When I try to.show her how to drive the boat, check her accountbalances on the Internet, how to raise the garage door if power goes out or stuff like that;I just get not now I don't feel like learning it right now. So I just basically have to do it. She wanted the boat. I brought it home so we could take it out and make sure it works. Well we are leaving soon, kids with friends, and going to a lake I've never been on. Nothing like easing into it.
