Uncle Tony's response to Direct Connection

If you broke down in the middle of no were with the rain falling , the temps dropping and your pregnant wife and two year old in the back seat and Uncle Tony stopped to help you, you'd be one luck SOB
In the early eighties I and a co worker were at the very first Millwright course given by our company
It was given in a shop of a old power plant built in the 1920's located on the shores of Hellgate in the South Bronx which back in the day was a very bad area
We had one guy in the class from another plant who was their wonder boy, smart cocky and a know it all.
We would get released late afternoon and seeing that it was winter time it was getting dark when we got out for the day
So one cold late afternoon, wonder boys car wouldn't start and we saw panic in his face
My co worker who always carried a small tool chest in his car as most of us did sprung into action
I determined in about a minute the car had no spark, meanwhile wonder boy stood there with his hands in his pockets......We saw the points were burnt so we fixed them with a screwdriver and a match book, luckily somebody was a smoker, filed the points with the striker and set them with the matchbook cover
Thats Uncle Tony. and BTW wonder Boy was a little less full of himself after that.
