No serious rain in the forecast. Guess I'll start with the primer. Picked up my new set of Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTZ summer performance tires for my 911. 2 of the g-Forces I ordered were no longer available so I went with my original choice. Didn't want to spend Michelin Pilot Sport money. The GTZ's have decent reviews (4+) and Uniroyal is under Michelins umbrella. have a great day, gang. And remember, if you don't do it it won't get done.


Side note ...... The ceramic orchids so far have not been missed ............ I dated the box to see how long, if ever, it is found missing. ..... SSshhhhhhhhh.

I practice this only it's usually $20. A bargain at twice the price.

The stripper question! LOL!!
Have the air cranked up at the graphics shop today, not much to do but try to find the end of the internet. Makes for a long day.
Christmas in July for Tommy with new tires. Christmas in July for me too, have the rear Nitto Invo's supposed to be here tomorrow for the GS. The BF is due at the body shop I work at tonight to take care of some wiring issues on the '89 Vette. Too bad the new rack isn't in, or we could let him do that instead of us. I want nothing more of it.
Hot and humid again today here, stay cool and dry y'all.

Hey guys....popcorn trick, freaking cool, I'll have to try that one. A little more like normal here today, weather-wise.

Worked for about 2 hours on some design work, then had a 60minute full body massage, with extra work on my back. Feeling pretty good, but don't want to overdo anything that could set back my progress.

Howdy! Got sucked into meetings right out of the gate this morning - ugh. Meanwhile, I think I smell popcorn.

Enjoy what's left of your day, Gurus!

I was out in the shop cutting mortises (half of the mortise and tenon joint, for you non-woodworkers) when I heard what I thought was a strong wind came up all of the sudden....I couldn't tell exactly, as the AC was on and the 60's on 6 were blaring. I stop and go to the door and open it up to find a heck of a shower going on....DARN nice! Didn't last very long (about like S3X), but in the end, we got 3/4"....come to think about it, just like S3X.

I was watching Roy Underhill use a "automatic mortise machine" made by the Shakers today. Foot powered (obviously), with hold downs, the chisel swiveled 360 degrees. It was VERY fast.

Good evening gang.

Been hot here lately. We had asked for a gutter on the garage to be installed. We weren't expecting it so it was a nice surprise. I own the trailer but not the garage. So the maintenance guys show up, Mutt & Jeff, and put the gutter up. I went to put a splash block under the down spout and found out they just stuffed the down spout in without any support. They didn't put the hole for the down spout in correctly either. They cut an X for the hole and had the spout attached to just two of the tabs. Flimsy as all hell.
So today I put the proper down spout outlet and braces on.

I just don't like it when people just don't care to a job right or pride in their work.

I also put 3 LED shop lights in the garage. One over my workbench and two hanging in the front. Picked them up for $40 a piece. Have a good evening gang.

....ah geez I wish I had an extra 70K laying around......how fun would it be going in and ordering a new one just the way you want it........and then waiting and waiting and then flying into BG to pick it up at the factory.....wow......and then driving it home with a few side trips......

I really do not like the hash stripes on the new ones like I do on the C6's.....but I would have to see them in person.......I'm thinking Blade Silver with the torch red interior and chromies....maybe the dark gray hash stripes.......or the dark gray with torch red guts and the silver hash stripes.....yeah that one I'm thinking......

There is a base used C7 at a used car lot in town. white with torch red guts and red calipers and chromies......I have been forcing myself to just ignore it as I drive by it every day.........I love my C6......and there's one more thing....I got the pink slip daddy........

Bill, I've seen that one too, the shakers were just that, shakers and movers in the field of woodworking. A shaker lady invented the circular saw.

Marcus, I love your choice of color combinations. silver/red...gray/red are great.
