Months ago I received a package from PartsRack. Funny thing, I hadn't ordered anything.

So I opened it up..... Christmas lights from PartsRack? LOL

JonB picked them up at a antique shop. He thought I would like them. I can't imagine why.LOL

Nice set of Gay-Lites "Made in the USA" from probably the 50's.

Thanks JonB and thanks for having a good sense of humor. :)

Hydro meter? All right, I work in the Electrical Utility field and even I don't know what that is. I did use a hydrometer on my reef tank though.

Is it a Canadian thing?

Had to LMAO on those lights and yes he can really come up with some unusual stuff. In the past I too have received some unusual items from Jon, just not quit like this. He is very thoughtful in many ways. Merry Christmas Jon and Doris !!!!!!!!!

In our early days here in Ontario, most of our electricity was generated by Niagara Falls, hence our power (hydroelectricity) was called hydro electric power, our meters had a wheel inside that you could watch go around that drove the number dials, which our "hydro" usage was measured by, hence the term hydro meter. :Canada:

Thanks, I knew it had to be a Canadian thing. Funny, I just never heard the term.

I did have second thoughts about posting the thread, but I thought what the heck. It's refreshing to see the nice comments here on this thread. All of us are different, but we all have one thing in common... passion for the Viper. :)

Now that's funny. Great sense of humor from both Jon B and Randall!!
Well said in above post Randall! Even without a Viper I would have the highest regards for you as an individual plus all you do for the Viper Nation.

Passion, for some its almost an obsession. You are right, all of us freaks have something wrong/right inside that made buying a car like this seem like a good idea. Everything else is just details.
