For a mechanic that can _make_ a motor, Bland, you sure ain't making much of a showing!" "Aw, f'r cat's sake, lay off the crabbing! Gimme the tools and I'll rip your damn motor apart so quick it'll make your head swim! I'll say I've tied into a sweet mess of trouble when I tied up with you.

I mighta knowed I'd git the worst of it.

Look at what I was handed the other time I throwed in with you! Got stuck in a cave and had to live like a darned animal, and double-crossed when I'd helped you outa the hole you was in.

And now you wish this job on to me and begin to lay the blame on me when this mess of junk fails to act like a motor.

Come off down here with a monkey wrench and a can opener and expect me to rebuild a motor that oughta been junked ten year ago!" "Aw, shut up!" snapped Johnny, and stalked off to find something they could eat.
