The drive shaft fell off of Gale's much-loved Jeep tonight. It would not have been as bad if Gale had not been in the middle of a busy intersection when it happened. Gale singlehandedly pushed it along and got over into the right hand lane (while pushing) and had enough momentum to get it up the hill and into a hotel's parking lot. It would have worked if some random man had not come up and started pulling it the other way. Ah well. We got it. Gale then proceeded to get it to work by pulling the shaft the rest of the way off and then putting it into 4WD. The purpose served by that was to engage the non-broken driveshaft and render it operable once again. Worked beautifully. Until the transmission fluid started pouring out of where the rear shaft needed to be. So, said Jeep is sitting at work right now and I shall be making my way up there very early in the morning to get it dealt with, one way or another.
