My dad, in a rare moment of utter stupidity, told me I couldn't have it because I wasn't able to drive yet and it would be too expensive to fix up to be roadworthy again. He sold the car for $2000. Fixed up, it would be worth probably 50x that right now. I never saw one red cent of that $2k, either...even though the car was willed to me.

Well, at least you're not bitter.

It was somewhere around 108 today. How would that affect baking time?
