Oh man languages are fun. All this Holy stuff you have here in the US. We are in the US, not India, still you have Holy Cow here :D. And you have Holy Macramony or how it is spelled, and whatever it means. And then, after going through all the Holy stuff, Holy crap, I even find you have Holy **** here too. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Be careful up in that Minnesota where all them Norwegians are... I am one myself, so I know. :rofl:


Not to mention that Minnesota calls themselves the land of 10,000 lakes...

But they don't tell you that there's only three fish in the whole state when you try to fish there.... :rolleyes: :poke:
 
Not Me . . Like Pizza though, lol . . Usually Go to Pizza Ranch here on Friday nights to celebrate the week, all kinds of selections on everything. Well run business, everything always tastes so good and fresh. Dessert Pizza and Ice Cream too . . .

I love pizza.... One of my favorite foods.... :thumbsup:
 
Oh Mike forgot to tell you Cheryl's latest idea. When we go to MCACN we are spending the night up at Davenport Iowa.
Well she was watching American Pickers and remembered that's where their store is.
Now she wants to make an attempt to go by the store when we get to town.
I think I have her convinced its just a show prop and doesn't exist. And no they don't really hang out at the store...or so I told her.

My son has stopped by that pawn shop in Detroit that they have the show about... It's a real store, but he has yet to see any of the people on the show....

However he gets a deal on watches... They sell bulk for 9 lbs of them for about $60 - $70.... My younger son worked at a jewler and learned how to repair watches... He fixes the ones that bring a few dollars and sells them, then uses the ones that aren't worth much for parts or discards them...
 
Good morning
Just a quick back read and check in. On my phone this morning cause internet isn’t working. Verizon says it ain’t them. Need to go outside and check the box...

I finally got an appointment for my internet cable company to hook up the new feed cable...

Those idiots keep thinking that they need to bury a new line... Every time I've called them in the last 4 weeks they keep telling me that they need to bury a new cable... It's been buried going on 4 weeks now - I've told them that for the last 4 weeks.... :mad: :BangHead:

I've tried to be patient with them, but last weekend on my birthday after getting blown off twice by supervisors/managers that were too busy when I called and were supposed to call back and didn't, I called and asked to talk to one... They had me on the phone for an hour (literally), so I unloaded on the grunt phone operator when he told me that they needed to bury a new cable and had to get permission from the village to do that... I had to scream at him and tell him that the cable is already buried, you just need to send a guy to crimp a fitting on each end and connect the damn thing!!! :mad:

This week - no connect... So I called again yesterday and demanded a time and date for a tech to come out... They finally gave me an appointment for Monday between 8 and 11 AM.... :wtf:
 
Holy cow, 214° @ .050 and 292° advertised duration.

That's what I don't like about Erson cams... Too much advertised duration for a given duration @ .050" = very slow ramp speed which leads to too low of vacuum at idle...

All I can say is it is great to have a good machinest in the area. Rick at Parks Engine Service in Seguin, Tx has always been good to work with and done good work. I normally drop my stuff off with the normal when you get to it speech as he is always busy. Yesterday he looked straight at his son who said I know what I'm doing next. I dropped it off and in less than 3hours he had it back to me and had the new ring at no charge.

Good Find, saved the engine . . was wondering what you were going to find next after checking the crank bearings.
Now I know, glad the machinist took car of things.

He didn't charge your ring... How is the engine going to start if the ring hasn't been charged???

Oh wait, that only applies to batteries that aren't charged.... :D

A neutron walkes into a bar and asks the bartender for a beer... The bartender gives him a beer and the neutron asks, "How much???"

The bartender replies, "For you, no charge".... :D
 
Two atoms walk into a bar... One of them bumps into the door as he passes through...

He turns to his buddy and says, "I think I lost an electron"....

His buddy asks, "Are you sure???"

He replies, "I'm positive"... :D
