Wow, Gerald. You are such a fine person, and I'm sure your partner is wonderful too. People can be so nasty. My car is now 26 years old and the paint is suddenly peeling. Someone left a note on my windshield complaining that it was parked in front of their spiffy house for two days.....and pretended it was blocking their garden (untrue). This is a great piece, although you may know, or see below) that i hate the negative term Karen. For some nice person named Karen, hearing awful women called Karens is like having their homey RV called a meth lab.
