Good Morning CGs!
Well, it's pouring again. After a nice day yesterday, we've angered the rain gods again and they are punishing us. But since the weather was nice yesterday I went over to my neighbor's house and helped him move some landscaping rocks for a couple hours. Had a couple adult beverages. Not a bad night overall. Wifey is at work today so baby is with Babcia (grandma). I've got some errands set out for the weekend. Get more pool chemicals, fix the lock on the garage entry door, clean the gutters, tinker about the house a bit. That "honey-do" list never seems to have an end. Oh well. The joys of marriage and home ownership. I should just get divorced and move to a trailer park. Tommy and I might get a double wide Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

Howdy! Supposed to rain here, too - we had some wicked thunderstorms last night, and tornadoes in some other parts of the state. Must be summer after all.
There is light at the end of the tunnel - I should be getting my engine back tomorrow. Had to run over to the shop and drop off a couple things so he can prime the engine before he puts the intake on. He had just finished decking the heads when I got over there. With a little luck, some scraped knuckles and sore muscles, maybe I can take it for a spin on Father's Day. Have a great day, everybody! |

Good Morning!
Well, it's Friday Eve! Busy day at work--troubleshooting instruments.. yee-haw! Looks like a nice day outside though. Highs in the upper 90's for the weekend...Summer has arrived.. I've GOT to get the ac fixed in the vette. Damn that procrastination...Gets me every time.. 10-4 on the never ending chore list. I cleaned the gutters a few weeks ago. We've got those screens on them, so that makes it easier, but still...What fun. Thank God for leafblowers.. Need 2 ladders; one to get on the first level, and one to carry with you so that you can reach the 2'nd level. PITA... Hope everybody has a good day GREAT NEWS Brad!! Hope you get to take it for a spin on Fathers Day! |

Well, I'm leaving today and I'll be back next Wednesday. Should be a nice break if my allergies don't vex me. That dog house is lookin better and better all the time. I wonder if my wife would mind if I took off for a year or two. Nah,then my cars would rot to the rims......... maybe a month......... hhhmmmmm.

Good Morning Gurus!
Yeah, take a month, Tommy. You deserve it. Hope the engine install goes smoothly, Brad! I believe today is the day my mom's Saab goes Buh-bye. Good freaking riddance! I think I heard that Saab was purchased by Koenigsegg (sp?) That could be interesting. Maybe Saab will finally produce a supercar. Maybe they will start using a regular fahking key... Well, got some business to attend to, so I'm outtahee. Take care, Gurus! |

Morning guys, dang we could actually use some of that rain. Supposed to be 98 here today. Brad, sure hope you get it all together so you'll have a nice fathers day. I darn sure know about those gutter things, we have a two story house and the second floor gutters are a PITA to clean. That's a pretty nice dawg house, I could probably survive in that one
I have been out in the shop working on some shelving units and watching the grandsons. Wife is working today, so it's just me again with the boys. All three have ball games tonight so we will be running three different directions. My summer vacation isn't much of a vacation.... |

Brad - Hope the engine drop goes well!!! Tommy - dog house? Are you sure you haven't sublet yet? Oh, well... off to work... |

Good morning, Gurus!
I've got my morning back to myself, no need to head to downtown until this afternoon. Woo-hoo! No rain in our forecast here! Re oatmeal - don't know if Tommy is already gone - I don't like the texture of instant oatmeal. It's too hard and grainy. I prefer the soft and fluffiness of real oatmeal, hence, I actually have to cook it. Happy Thursday! |
