So today she went back after leaving the car overnight at a speedway and couldn't get it to start with jumper cables. Her boy friend who grew up on a farm in Indiana refused to try to pull start her saying his dad owned his 4wd suv and would not allow him to pull start our car.

(WHAT KIND OF A FARMER/ FARM BOY HAS NEVER PULL STARTED A CAR BEFORE?)

So tomorrow I will be fetching the car back to lafayette. It will take all day to driver 4.5 hours to where the car is, attach my tow bar and drag it home....assuming it does not snow, then all bets are off.

It will be a cold day in hell before she takes one of my cars north again.

I should have told him this was a test like Hercules and if he failed he could not marry my daughter.
