Stop in for a cup of coffee

[Ddaddy]

Well, I did my weekly weigh-in this morning and I’m now down 25 lbs.

Carrying that extra weight was like walking around with a belt like this (same amount of weight)

Please don’t ask for anything else after he ties your hands...we don’t want to know about it!

Great. I know so little about camshafts, if i go read it i will know even less....why does it have to be so difficult??

Not much to know. The cam goes “bump, bump, bump” and the engine goes “vroom, vroom, vroom”.

The higher the bumps and longer they go, the more vroom you get.

Yeah, the equations can get a bit complex but once you understand it all, it’s really not all that complicated. It just takes some time and persistence to get to a good level of understanding.

So many car events going on today and I just didn't feel up to doing any of it. Did some yard work, took a nap, then polished the Camaro. You ever have one of those days where you don't feel like being around anyone?

 

[MOPARMITCH]

Update on the saga of my neighbors deck. He ended up firing the first crew and hired a different one that knew what they were doing. They dug new footers, set the concrete properly and finished the job in less than a week. I’m glad he got it done right.

After buddy welded up my engine stand, i wrapped up the odds and ends. Turned heat down in shop and locked things up. Put the pos ford in shop in case owner gets a stupid idea and tries to remove it while im gone. Will be a nice break.
Momma’s got bags packed and waiting by the door,car is full of gas. I would say we ready to go.
