Porsche Crest Mikey's Christmas Bio

Hello boys and girls.....8^)

The kids (Katherine 8, Kristen 8, and Danielle 6) are all a twitter, the
house lights are up as well as the tree's......the wife is out shop lifting
and I am finishing up the sanding of the oak dining room table and two
leafs.

Stoopid thang has some weird "smog weenie" required coating on it that balls
up and clogs even 40 grit sand paper. Once thru it gives me good sand
dust......120 grit followed by 220 gets the job done.

Got BOTH sides of the famn damily coming over for the 25th......should be in
excess of 20 ish peoples ....depending on who is out on bail....at least MY
side of the family......

I also got to fix/improve the 3.6 powered Sooper Coupe.....my buddy Ingo
came by and said.....Dood, have you checked your wide open throttle? HUH?

Well we popped the lid and I pressed the gas pedal.....then Ingo pressed on
the throttle body linkage.....hhmmmm, another 1/2 inch......2 ten mm bolts
and a grinder later that stoopid stop in the gas pedal problem was
gone.....BUT, when I step on the loud pedal.....the rear wheels
spin.....bummer.....gotta get stickier/bigger tires.....8^)

Now waiting on the next storm to pass thru.....the new garage up on the hill
has the pad dug, we are waiting on this round of rain to stop and get some
foundations dug.....then the 12 foot back wall to keep the stoopid hill from
falling down......then we can do the rest of the stuff and I can have my
Ozzy collection up there and crank it......should be able to pizzoff my
elitist duffist neighbors off in one easy lesson......the weasels up the
hill have NO kids, drive leased whatever is trendy, and hate anyone that
stoops to working on their own house......so I be on the low life list.....

Hope to have the 356 and the 914 up there for the winter to do the rusto
work on the pan and the 6 conversion on the '14.....

Anywhooooo, ALLZ you guyz and girls have a SAFE and happy holiday.
