You are correct, somehow I got it backwards in my mind, not the first time. :lol: We were watching some “Remember when” shows on Fox Nation last night and they showed a Calgon TV commercial. It was set in a laundry service run by Asian folks and the tag line was…”we need more Calgon. Ancient Chinese Secret huh?” Sadly I remember when it ran live on TV. :lol:

Still use it Hatch. 40oz of Pinesol 8 ounces of Calgon. Mix that in a gallon jug with water. Pour one cup in your gray tanks. Keeps the lying tank sensors honest

Well, we're older and perhaps wiser now. Anyway I hope we are. I ran with a pretty rough group
of friends in those days. We did things that would get us in a lot of trouble today. :roll:
I had a nice 56 Ford and a few girl friends and I enjoyed life to the fullest. :lol:

Yes those were great and much safer times than what we have today. Young ones go out today and a lot don't come back.

A friend and I were cruising a nearby small town for chicks when this A-hole started following my car and waving a
pistol. I also had a pistol but I wasn't interested in a gun fight, so we left the town. He followed us into the county
until we came to a dead end in a woods. Then he jumped out of his car waving his pistol when suddenly another
car came storming in. The occupant of that car jumped out with a pistol and started shooting at our first assailant,
who was firing back at him. It didn't take me long to notice that no bullets appeared to be striking anything. They
were firing blanks. I yelled BS. They both got up and started laughing. It was a set up. Luckily I had not fired back
with real bullets. Those two A-hole became two of my best friends.

Country boys having fun.

Does it work in the black tank as well? The world wants to know. :roll:
