The left front door of the Avalon has a bolt that gets loose, like clockwork, about once per year. I tighten it.
So this time around I got my SK 1/2 inch drive socket wrench out to do so. As I did, I was talking to the local security guard who is a buddy of mine. I was telling him how I got that wrench in June, 1975. I bought it at a Grand Auto store in the San Francisco Bay area.
We were talking about how the world has change in the 40 years since. More than half the people in the world were not alive when I got that wrench. Everything about America has changed in one way or another. And at the rate the wrench is holding out, it will easily last another 200 years.
When I got the wrench I was in college, and he was in high school in Amman, Jordan.
Forty years...how about you? Do you have old stuff that brings memories?
