It seems like the days of learning from your neighbor down the street, how to change your clutch, or how to install a manifold, or a faucet, or a Light fixture are gone...
Isn't that the truth. The damn city ordinances are killing most chances of this being passed on neighbor to neighbor or father to son. I've been rebuilding the front suspension of my truck and have it sitting on jackstands in my driveway 15 feet from the curb. Not only did I get a citation to move it or else, but I also got a "friendly" visit from the city enforcement police about it. WTF, some of these people should be proud to see someone having enough pride to take care of their possessions.

Kids don't have much to look forward to as far as the trades go in school. Its sad really.
