A talking monkey from the future knocked on my door one morning. He was
a strange little guy. All he would say is "ficus." I should have invited
him in for coffee.

Goshhhhhhh I have done alot of stupied things maybe getting married at
18,,, but then again I would not have the kids I
have and they are so Incredible,,, So i guess the one really
stupid thing I have done, cause thier are so many is putting my
education on hold to please my then husband and changing my
believes of myself and the world to please him...

I had a 74 Dodge Charger, and it was hot (to me at least). Me and my
buddy were motor-heads and, on a bored Friday, thought it would be a
good idea to change the rear-end for a different gear ratio. Why? We
thought it would go faster.

We pulled a rear end out of another car and popped it into my car. So
far so good, I'd be able to drive the car to school & work on Monday! In
fact we were really proud of ourselves, neither had done this, and most
everything was overcome pretty easily. On Sunday we realized that the
old brake lines were too short - by 1/2" or so, but, you'd have to
replace the 4 foot steel brake tubes (cant just buy a
shortie-extension). So we bought the brake-line tubes, the flaring
tools, and a propane torch. Why? To bend the tubes.

We do a really nice job and installed these new lines. Even bled the
brakes properly. Oooh so proud. I take my new car for a ride down the
street - a rural road. I wanna test out this new rear end, and floor it.
Wooohooo, I'm having a blast. It feels faster - was it any faster? Who
knows, the calibration for the speedometer is now way-off.

Oh yeah, I should check out the brakes too. So I step on them - good.
Hmmm, I should give it a good test - just to make sure everything is
good. Stomp, the tires grip, car lurches, then bang - the brakes go to
the floor. All the way. There's NO BRAKES. No use pumping them - there's
no brakes. Thank God there wasn't anyone around - I put the car in
neutral and just let it roll to a stop.

When I told my father this, he said "Why did you heat the brake lines?"
"To bend them! Wasnt that clever?!"
"Idiot - thats what caused the failure - by heating them you made them
very brittle on the bends."

And that was exactly the problem - 1600psi of brake fluid burst through
the heated-bends shattering them like soda-bottles.

yes..leave children with him....settle in a state that has a pro mother
record...then file for custody in new state...it is a long hard
process...but might be worth your sanity :wink:
