A couple years ago I needed four used 14" car tires in the 195-205 range for a small wagon. I happened to be at a local car repair that sold tires and I asked him if he had any. He told me he had three out back that had been ice picked, go dig through the pile they are free. I went back there and found three almost brand new matching tires plus another one that was a different brand but same size. When I carried a couple of them through the shop on the way to my pickup a young mechanic told me they wouldn't work because a patch on a sidewall won't hold. I told him it wasn't a problem because I am using tubes. He got this inquisitive look on his face and asked me "what's a tube"? The question took me by surprise for sure but I went on to explain what a tire tube is.
On the other hand, quite awhile ago I hauled some junk on a hay rack to a town north of me. I picked up a nail in a tire on the rack while in town so I took it to a gas station that sold tires. It was a car tire and when they took it off it wasn't worth fixing. They had an old used tire that would fit so they put it on, charged me $15 to change tires and $25 for the old used tire. They knew I was in a bind so they stuck it to me. Next time I had a spare and a jack along with me. That station is gone now, wiped off the map. Good riddance!

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
