RE: I need a cat!

["Aaron Ness" <aaron@makuta.com>]

<x-charset iso-8859-1>There's a guy here at work who suffers from Ford-owner's disease who was
just telling me the other day that he knows of a local yard that will sell
used cats.  He was getting an exhaust put on his Bronco II, and he didn't
have cats and was having difficulty finding a shop willing to do the work.
He found one, but before that he was talking about how he was giong to have
to get them from this particular junkyard.  I haven't lived here long enough
to get to know the junkyards (there are very few because most of the town is
pretty loaded), so I don't know if this yard has any VW stuff, but it's near
Columbus, IN, and if anyone wants more info I can get it from him.

This guy tends to get things screwed up a bit at times, so he might have
been feeding me a load of crap and didn't even know it.

It is against federal law to sell used cats, I've
never found a yard that would do it.
