Well I must freely admit to my juke friends what a great book this is!

Ron was correct too in the observation that it was fun to read.

>From the technical side of the book I now want to check out a United juke 
and see it in action. Wes indicates that they put on a speedy show.

>From the telling of stories side I liked the service call to a remote 
location that used a generator to power the juke. While a generator powering 
a juke might not be all that rare, in this case the generator was wired in 
such a way as to start up when a nickle was put into the juke. And the way 
Wes tells it I was close to rolling on the floor (maybe not that close but 
it was funny).

Thanks Wes for putting some of your experiences to paper and sharing them 
with us. I think you give some great advice on collecting in the juke world. 
Also in performing repairs for others.

"We try to tell customers the facts of life and then let them decide for 
themselves about what course to take."

I like that. Perhaps because I work in the service end of things 
(automotive).
