PAM has discovered a way to solve an age old conundrum.
From News.com.au:
- Pulling a tick off the wrong way can lead to meat allergy. An Australian doctor found the link while studying rising cases of the allergy among people who live on Sydney's tick-prone northern beaches. "I now tell everybody I see who lives anywhere near ticks to use `Aerostart' (spray-on engine cleaner) or another high-alcohol substance," said Dr Sheryl van Nunen. "Stun the tick before you scrape it out and it can't inject what it injects."

As small part of the world kicking me in the nads* over the past few weeks, my ride decided to give up the ghost on me.
Now it hasn't exactly been the most reliable ride around since the first day but the little ninja had spirit and we had our fair share of fun. I guess I knew that things were going downhill as she left me stranded recently but resumed again after a bit of a timeout. As a final act of defiance she decided to quit on me completely.
This was the last picture of her taken a few weekends ago:
After a few of missed appointments with a nearby mechanic she was finally picked up this afternoon. We'll see what the prognosis is, but it could be time to move on.
* No I didn't really get kicked in the nads just lots of things went wrong and my world was crumbling around me.
I'm still cold from last week.
