Good Morning Gurus!

So I let the folks at the agency know I wasn't willing to work with them anymore. Maybe a stupid move, with the economy the way it is. But I am an arrogant, prideful SOB. So there it is.



I think that's one of the benefits of being independent. You don't have to work for anyone you don't want to work for. They want twice the work for half the price. Nothing lost there, I assure you.

You need to get the resistance off the existing key. When you order the new cylinder, it will come with a key and you more than likely have to tell them the resistance.

Either that, or you get a key that fits and then have to make a copy on a blank with the right resistance.

Replacing is easy, really.

Remove the wheel, the airbag clockspring/switch thingy, the lock ring and a screw, the cylinder pops out.

I really need to do that...

The key switch is all worn out... my dome lights stay on too long and the chimes don't always chime.



Three times now for me. I got genuine GM parts. I heard and read that some of the cheaper aftermarket replacements are just that. Cheap aftermarket replacements. Even my locksmith told me to get it from the dealer.

Here are the basics of the story I alluded to.

Missing South Miami-Dade man found dead Tue Jan 6, 2009 more...

SOUTH MIAMI-DADEPolice hunt for missing South-Dade man, 89, Georg Marewski, 89, suffers from memory loss and could be lost in the agricultural community west of Homestead. Tue Jan 6, 2009 more...

Elderly man disappears from South Miami-Dade home Mon Jan 5, 2009 more...


Last night I went to a tribute to the mans life. The family offered this as opposed to a traditional funeral. Two of his daughters flew in from Maryland where Georg had lived most of his life in the U.S. He was German immigrant who had come here at a young age. He was a talented woodworker, small stage performer and director. The last few years of his life were affected by age. Alzheimers and loss of muscle control had been taking it's toll. He no longer wanted to be a burden on his family, so he went for a walk. It was a walk that he had planned with no return.
At his third daughters farm, where he had lived for the past two years they held a dinner and testimonial to his life. Why I bring this up is because it was one of the most touching and memorable good byes I have ever witnessed.
The event took place on a 35 acre organic fruit and vegatable farm. In the center of the property is a huge open air kitchen with roof to protect from the elements. It is at least a 60' x 60' pad. 50 or 60 of the families friends had gathered to honor him and share their good wishes. On the side of the kitchen, under a canopy, they had set up the old mans bed. To the right of the bed were pictures of this mans travels through life. On the bed were some of his favorite things. Two watches that he wore simultaniously that he would never be late for anything. A pair of walking boots, socks, lederhosen, several hats. and a dozen harmonicas. They were layed out as he might wear them. Light music played in the background as this group laughed and remembered. They ate organic foods and drank wine. It was a true celebration of a mans life and his contribution to it. I'm sure my words don't do justice to what this event truly represented, but I hope you get an idea of what I shared with this fine family. I'm sure he would have been proud.

Overcast today. It's been a wild week. Wife is still recovering, a drunk took out a tree and knocked back our fence at the nursery and an old timer with alzheimers that lived next to our nursery ran away from home last Saturday. They found him dead in a field a few places down from where he lived. No foul play involved. I'm looking forward to quieter times.

Subject: LIFE IN THE 1500's






The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the
water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things
used to be. Here are some facts about the 1500's:

These are interesting. ..

Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath
in May, and still smelled pretty good by June. However, they were
starting to smell, so brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide
the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when
getting married.

Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the
house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other
sons and men, then the women and finally the children. Last of all
the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose
someone in it. Hence the saying, Don't throw the baby out with the
Bath water.

Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood
underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all
the cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived in the roof.
When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would
slip and fall off the roof. Hence the saying . It's raining cats and
dogs.

There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house.. This
posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings
could mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a
sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy
beds came into existence.

The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt.
Hence the saying, Dirt poor. The wealthy had slate floors that would
get slippery in the winter when wet, so they spread thresh (straw)
on floor to help keep their footing. As the winter wore on, they
added more thresh until, when you opened the door, it would all
start slipping outside. A piece of wood was placed in the entrance
way. Hence the saying a thresh hold.

(Getting quite an education, aren't you?)

In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a big kettle that
always hung over the fire. Every day they lit the fire and added
things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables and did not get much
meat. They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers in the
pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day.
Sometimes stew had food in it that had been there for quite a
while. Hence the rhyme, Peas porridge hot, peas porridge cold, peas
porridge in the pot nine days old.

Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite
special. When visitors came over, they would hang up their bacon to
show off. It was a sign of wealth that a man could, bring home the
bacon. They would cut off a little to share with guests and would
all sit around and chew the fat.

Those with money had plates made of pewter. Food with high acid
content caused some of the lead to leach onto the food, causing lead
poisoning death. This happened most often with tomatoes, so for the
next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.

Bread was divided according to status. Workers got the burnt bottom
of the loaf, the family got the middle, and guests got the top, or
the upper crust.

Lead cups were used to drink ale or whisky. The combination would
sometimes knock the imbibers out for a couple of days. Someone
walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for
burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days
and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and
see if they would wake up. Hence the custom of holding a wake.

England is old and small and the local folks started running out of
places to bury people. So they would dig up coffins and would take
the bones to a bone-house, and reuse the grave. When reopening these
coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the
inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So
they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through
the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone
would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the graveyard
shift.) to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be, saved by the
bell or was considered a ...dead ringer.

And that's the truth... Now, whoever said History was boring ! ! !

Here's one thing I learned today.

12 of the 71 1991 Calloway Twin Turbo Corvettes produced were a special Speedster model.

I've never seen one.

I prolly had 275 grams of carbs by by 9:00 A.M. I am not the healthiest of eaters. If you like to eat whatever you want, when you want, keep this number handy. You'll need it one day. It's 911. Stay up late, get up early and eat badly.
You're sure to get a visit.
