When I got the car it was obvious that the right front window was a mess. It was off the track and sitting in the bottom of the door. After taking off the door panel and easy inspection found the regulator bent, cracked, repaired, and now broke again. Since the left front was also down, I jumped to the rookie conclusion that it too was beyond repair, so I relentlessly ripped and tore that no good so and so out of the door with extreme prejudice.

Once out, and catching my breath, I finally slowed down enough to realize that it wasn't broke, but this did not deter me from amplifying my fear/hate of things I don't understand and really don't want to understand? What do you think?

So I still wanna go manual, but today, after finally getting my used Haynes manual, I decided to look at the fuses, and the left front/right rear fuse was blown, which makes me feel stupid.

So every time I pull over to the side of the road to crank a window up or down, I will still hear , "Riddle me this: how are you going to roll up the right rear window while doing 50[sic] on the interstate?"

So Anziani, no slight taken, for although I may forget your name your words will live on and on. And with those words I hope to remember not to arrogantly embrace hasty conclusions.

Oh, and just to be clear, armed with my new Haynes manual, I can now find more trouble to get myself into.
