On Friday morning my battered old Toyota refused to do anything other than click quietly when I turned they key. Granted this is not so surprising when one considers that the beast has over 300,000 miles on it and is still original parts (mostly). Being one of the great procrastinators of our time, I did not do anything to it until today and I have narrowed the possibilities down to two: the starter ist kaput, oder, der Batterie ist kaput. The battery is out and charging so I should know by the end of the day today. I am going to relax with some kava while it charges, no need to rush into any other useful tasks or anything... zzzzz
