Re: Gus Wilson....ace mechanic adventures
I can't say I remember the article but sure read a bunch of them today. Pretty interesting reading. Saw a few things I really didn't agree with but nothing really glaringly wrong. A bit like TV. You see something that is wrong and say something about it and your wife says "it IS TV you know"
