Old tires and oil! That was hilarious, indeed!
I've been re-reading the RJ series again (5-th or 6-th time), and found a connection I've always missed.
Minor Spoilers....
In ATR, Robert Butler nearly throws Vicky down the steps while under the influence of Bezerk. In The Haunted Air, Jack uses the alias Bob Butler when he approaches Madame Pomerol.
Never saw that before. That's one reason its fun to read and re-read FWPs books!

You really only need three things: WD-40, Duct Tape, and a pointy stick. If it's supposed to move and doesn't, use the WD-40. If it moves and isn't supposed to, use the Duct Tape. If you want it to move and it doesn't want to, use the pointy stick. The rest of life is easy.

I love the image of tires bouncing everywhere! That was priceless

FPW's sense of humor is one of the (MANY) things that I love about his writing. This fix-it in All The Rage was definitely one of his most imaginative and humorous. Loved the comments that the Ashe Brothers made to Jack about this job too.
Another thing that always makes me smile is all Jack's "Neat Stuff". Cracks me up every time I read about something new in his ever-growing collection.

Your good, but stacyzinda123 beat you by two years. ( sorry to steal your thunder)
All the Rage, for me, was the best Jack book over all. Then Gateways, then Infernal. I'm hoping for another tight read like these two in the upcoming book. Though, don't get me wrong, i think they're all good.
Peace.
Peace.
I too just finished ALL THE RAGE and it was a great book to help me get back into the RJ world. I hadn't read any RJ since about 2001 because I thought that there was only 3 in the series.
It took some jogging of the memory to remember Scar-lip and everything that they were referencing from THE TOMB (or was it CONSPIRACIES? See that's how long its been!!) but it wasn't all that hard. Overall, I thought ALL THE RAGE was a great book and I finished it in only a few days.
I can't wait to start THE HOST and then HAUNTED AIR (I already mailed them back home)
