Ok it's Friday so I'll add my story

When I was in college at home for a week with the folks, my dad and I were doing something on the car and managed to break a bolt for the valve cover. No one had that crazy metric bolt in stock cause 'merica. Anyways there was a local 'scrap yard' we'd gotten parts from before for the car but it was closed so we - dad's idea! being desperate and all and a Sunday - hopped the fence to go to the junked car we knew was there from past trips. (Yes junk yard visits with dad, explains much heh? ). So we procured the simple bolt and where nearly out when the junk yard dog saw us and started the barking

Never saw my dad run run that quick before. First and last time skirting the law
