Pretty nice start temp-wise this morning....40 already, but the cloud cover is going to hold the temps down some, only looking at mid 50s today.
I have doors to rout and stain this morning, then I'll find some other things that need done. I hope all of you will stay high and dry today, especially Marcus out there in corn country where all the flooding is occurring. I think his place is OK, though. |

GRIS, I remember reading about the victors of war pillaging, killing all the males, and raping all the women to demoralize them. War has come a long way since then in most places but the result is a generation that seeks revenge for the travesties of the battles that they endured. In a world where anywhere is accessible and an enemy can go undetected, you never know where a catastrophic event will erupt. And then there are the individuals that have had a break from reality and undertake a mission of a mass assault for reasons known and unknown. Of course mix in the serial and criminal elements that raise their routine havoc along with population growth that goes unchecked and here we sit. The best protection is a personal arsenal.

The flood plain is unbelievable. From what I've seen the last few years if I were to live somewhere else I'd seek high ground on a solid base with a massive clearing to avoid fire, away from the coast (hurricanes) not in tornado alley, with moderate temperatures and not near a volcano or fault line. Weather ($#!+) happens. Terrible. |

Good Morning CGs!
Supposedly we will see some slightly warmer weather this week. Spring has sprung? Still fighting with the driveshaft on the wife's car. It has a vibration. I found the u-joints are actually a little loose in the yoke. I'm going to cheat and throw a quick tack weld in to hold them in better. If that's not it and it needs a balance I might consider a new driveshaft. Sometimes it's easier just to replace versus repairing old junk. Gotta head to mom's today and do some chores. Hope everyone has a great day! |

yeah we are high and dry here......my old man always told us to build on the high ground on rock not on sand..... as well as an agronomist he was a weekend preacher to small churches the could not afford full time pastors.
We are doing well here but from here east it gets nasty in a hurry. Unprecedented cyclo bomb storm and frozen ground meant everything was going to run off and it did. Billions of dollars in damage and bridges will have to be rebuilt....its a mess. Like I said earlier my wife's mother had to be moved from the retirement home she lives in because the place got flooded. They are now in temporary housing and it will be 6 to 8 weeks until they can be moved back. All the carpets have to be replaced along with sheetrock damage and then everything must pass a State inspection. A lot of these folks are in memory care and its been a tough time for them. Got to give the staff there a shout out for working long hours to make sure their charges were as comfortable as possible..... 500 year storm they are saying now....... got to get to work....have a dry day Guru's..... |

JUST SAW A HEADLINE THAT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS GOING TO INVESTIGATE BOEING'S AIRPLANE PROBLEM. SEEM TO ME AN INVESTIGATION BY ENGINEERS MIGHT PROVIDE MORE USEFUL THAN ONE BY LAWYERS. |

Or ..... you could do what GRIS and I do. Bring it to a shop with a qualified mechanic that has the proper tools. (If he/she doesn't have the tools you could always sell the tools to them.) Also a shop that has dealt with the problem before would know all the cheats. Examples of stuff I sent to the shop are a pulley on the 87 911 that required an engine drop, a heater core on my 90 Vette and anything I posted that said something about me bringing something to the shop. |

Another busy day. Worked in the shop staining doors most of the morning. Then helped Rosie move some stuff from old office over to the new. Looks like they are getting close over there to finishing. Contractor told me they would be texturing the walls tomorrow and start painting Thursday or Friday. So early next week I could be installing the cabinets there.
Went back to the shop and the stain was dry on the doors, so I decided to go ahead and start spraying the lacquer. I finished spraying the lacquer about 7:30 this evening.....the doors will be ready to install hinges and then take over and install them on the cabinets tomorrow. So, my Wednesday is pretty much planned out. Oh, it did get into the mid 50s today, the sun peaked out a few times,but the breeze made it feel cool. |
