Counting the days until we see F1 in a metal detector infomercial on late night TV, showing off the $1000's of dollars worth of jewelery he has found on the beach in Florida.

At least your mower had lug nuts, mine actually has bent nails in the place of cotter pins to hold the wheels on. It's a 20yr old riding mower that I don't really need, but it backfires and smokes so much that I actually get a kick out of using it to mow my lawn. No real reason I haven't fixed it, except that it's worked for years and if it ain't broke, I'm the last person to fix it.
