Now that I've got your ear, apologies for my attack on your/Art Smith's discussion about mojo awhile back. Someone wiser than me chided me for it on the spot, and I took what was coming to me. The essence of my thought was sincere though, as this story might reveal: One day I was admiring a row of custom Harley's in front of a motorcycle shop. I said to a man standing nearby, "I like this one the best." The man said "You got a good eye, that one's mine." I asked what the unusually small leather bag was for that was mounted from the bars above the headlight. He said "That's your mojo, if your bike ever breaks down anywhere you can fix it with what's in that bag so's you can make it home."
