I'm going to dig out the C4, wash it and go down the hill for a ride, maybe out to the racetrack. If I go up the hill, I'll hit snow.

In the gas station near my house yesterday, there were 2 cars loaded with skis and load of snowmobiles going up the hill. And a pickup/trailer with 6 dirtbikes going down the hill. Gotta love it.

Another foot of snow in the Manchester NH area
If I can find something tall, I would climb it and jump. God I hate this shit.
Gonna do some expense reports. Work owes me a ton of money, and will only pay when I get those reports in.
The daily driver needs an oil change too. At least I won't be bored today, just cold and wet.

The 10-day golf forecast here on weather.com is "very poor" - Tuesday we have a high of -1. 43 more days until Mazatlan - I'd like to go into a coma until then.

Just came in from giving two of the cars a bath. I want to wax the 90 today before it gets too hot. 81' is the expected high. So I'm gonna jump on it soon. I don't want to sweat too much. Then I'm going shopping for a new marine radio and an AM/FM for the boat. Vacation week in the Keys starting next Saturday. It's supposed to get cold after next week. Mid 40s and highs in the 60s. BBbbrrrrrrr ......... Fishing isn't as much fun when you're freezing your ass off. :shaking:

We're getting continually dumped on here in the D. I personally love it, it makes having to drive a huge rig all summer worth it, even if just for a few days.

I did some perfect donuts in the movie theatre lot last night, until the police came and asked me to leave.

On a bad note, bad roads aren't all fun and games. My buddy rolled his explorer on Friday night. He's ok, some cuts from the glass and a sore shoulder, but the car is obviously toast. He had my skis in the car, good thing they're ok

Saw Gran Torino last night. I guess I like it, but still trying to decide. Good story, lackluster acting.

Geez ..... What about when I have to read about (Just came back from the crab festival or some of my friends and I just ran the Dragon or Great show this weekend at Carlyle or Several of us hooked up at Bloomington Gold) and I'm stuck here in Florida with hurricane warnings. I'll get to pay for this gorgious winter weather come summertime.

8:20 pm here. Dark, dreary, damp, and 54 out. I just got the grill goin, and a fat little chuckeye on the way.

54, in January, at night. I'll take it just fine like that, for the rest of winter (I think today's high was 54). Good job, Gore!

Well, my Sunday is winding down. I was planning to drop the engine back in the 62 this weekend, but managed not to.

Met with bogus and Cuisinartvette earlier today at Long Beach. It was good to see some familiar faces. Scored a set of correct GM BBC SWP pulleys for the Chevelle, and some misc stuff I really didn't need.

Ran into the guy that rebuilt my #7380 Rochester FI long before I ever had it, and was quoted a reasonable price to have it gone through. Then I spoke with the guys at Bowtie Overdrives, and they were fairly certain they could make a 700R4 work with it, so it may eventually find its way into the 62.

From there, I went to Pacific Palisades to check out a 64 El Camino, it was a pos and about 180* opposite of how it was described... unfortunately, I'm not surprised that a seller would misrepresent something so flagrantly.

Productive day.

Got the driveway all shoveled out, and I got the upright modeled, which means I can start playing with it.

All I can say right now, it's that it's rather enlightening to say the least!

Went for a ride today with about 70 other bikers to wear off the chicken strips. Nuts. Only one guy crashed.

I almost hit some ducks on one of the backroads, but I ducked.

I didn't watch a single football game all weekend. But the yard looks nice.

Rough weather though.

So was I the only one who spotted the guy selling parts on the South end out of the white Duallie with the KING SIZED MULLET and ?

He even had the 1980s red and white striped long sleeved shirt with the button down collar and Oakley Blades on.

I almost snapped a pic just for kicks I was laughing so hard.

Think he was a race car driver. lol
