90. Naked Nasruddin
One morning Nasruddin arrived at school not wearing any clothes. He was completely naked! All the other schoolboys laughed at him, but the teacher was not amused. In fact, he was very angry.
“Nasruddin, explain yourself!” said the teacher sternly. “What on earth are you doing here without any clothes on?”
“Just let me explain,” Nasruddin replied, smiling brightly at the teacher. “I woke up late, so I was in a big hurry and I ran just as fast as I could. I simply didn’t have time to get dressed if I wanted to get here to school on time.”

Although Desperado is running better there is still a problem with the cylinder that was misfiring. The spark plug that was in there was burned up so a new plug did help. I have another appointment next week for more tests to find out if the valves are a problem and if so then I need a new head and valves. There could be an even worse problem and I’ll be looking at getting a rebuilt engine. Either way I’m looking at an unplanned expense.
The weather continues to be fine which is the good news. The highest temperature was 92° on the day that I arrived. Since then it has been cloudy with rain showers and highs in the 70s or low 80s. Yesterday it went up to the mid 80s with not a cloud in sight probably the same for today and for the rest of the 10 day forecast.
