Over breakfast this morning:
Mrs. SVreX: "What is this thing "
SVreX: "A strut."
Mrs. SVreX: "Why is it on my kitchen table?"
SVreX: "Because I was copying part numbers for a GRM post."
Mrs. SVreX: "You gonna strut it on outta here?"
I'm glad she didn't go into shock over the whole ordeal.

In reply to mad_machine:
Mine will like or not like a car based on the color. If I pointed out a 3 series or an M3 she would be likely to say, "I don't really like that."
Me: "Why not?"
Her: "It's silver."
My wife would have re-valved it and then made some bacon.
Just sayin'.

Me: Uh huh. Ok, yes dear. Yes. Sure. OK. I'll try. Sorry.
Morning are fun around here.
I think your wife and mine may have been twins seperated at birth.

I never understood the 'stigma' associated w/ auto or bike parts in the house... might be dirty, yea but so are plumbing and remodeling projects
Same reason there's a 'stigma' associated with having a shovel on the floor of your kitchen, or a lawn mower in the living room. It's messy. I don't keep car parts in the house, otherwise the place looks like a sty. If it's on the way in or out, no big deal, but if you pile 'em up... ugh.
I agree.. I am single and I do not store parts in the house... (at least those that are not stuffed into big rubbermaid containers in the spare room)
My future wife is quite funny.. i've taught her a lot.
Me: " I want a quattro as a winter car"
Her: "Why not an E36 M3?..
Me: "Because- (i get cut off.)
Her: ..THEY'RE S#!T"
Me: "yeah, exactly."
Me: "I want to turn the RX-7 into a vintage racecar"
Her: "Buy me a house and you can do anything but cheat on me."
My wife actually told me that she wanted us to buy the car with the blown turbo and fix it, rather than buy similar priced non turbo version of the same car in perfectly good operating shape.
She's also solicited at least 3 items from friends for free(for me) that have wheels and a motor(4 wheeler, riding lawn mower, and a saab 9000 turbo).
And she puts up with my hsit.
Me: I'm going to pick up these tools on the kitchen island and move them.
Wife: Why?
Me: Cause people are coming over and then I can reattach it properly since it wasn't when we moved in.
Wife: NO! Just leave them out so we can finish working on the stuff later and such.

Me: just pick out what you want, buy it, and have it delivered.
Her: You bought another car, didn't you?
Me: Its a real nice 96 sedan deville.
