The back of my eyelids eventually :)

Mmm. Thanks to the grog thread, I've just discovered a new cocktail I like - Tequila Cranberry. :)

Refreshing, like a margarita.

Oh my, that's easy to drink. You could get quite blotto very quickly if you didn't keep an eye on what you're doing.

Time to stop and hit the fart sack. Have a great day guys. Nighty night.

Morning Everyone. Props go out to those that have to work on Black Friday. You will never see me out shopping on that day ever. That is the day all the guys leave for the cabin for rifle/big game season in Pennsylvania. I can't wait, beer, food, cards and a bunch of guys wise cracking on each other.

Well, it has been about 2 years since I have had any sort of fast food and I feel great. I count subway as a deli shop and not a fast food shop. I am talking the greasy burger/chicken/taco/fish chains. Ever since my scare and battle, I have made a major improvement in my diet (eating local and fresh). I try to stay away from anything processed. It also has improved my being part of a community feeling because I got to know my local butcher by name and also the local grocery well. It's a nice feeling to be in support of small and local business and keeping the money in the area.

You could check into a rehab clinic, that'll kill 12 weeks. :)

Good Morning folks.

One reason we just close on Friday is so many of our customers close. If we were in the middle of a big project we might swing by the office to check the computers or start another batch process. Heck we do that on weekends all the time. The phones just don't ring and no one comes in. We put the phones on foreword and our cell phones are synchronized with the work email. We can take care of any questions or quote a job cost from anywhere. I do have a VNC connection to my work computer.

Our pilot is flying a stockpile job today. We have flown that same site since the 1960s. They have gone through several different owners in that period. That make a big pile of "stuff" and the tax man wants their cut 4 times per year. The pile changes size hour by hour as product is loaded and hauled away for sale and new product is added. They stop production for about 5 minutes as we fly over. Our pilot calls them as he is ready for take off and tells them his ETA. They actually have internal auditors on site to see the airplane fly over. Within a couple of work days we can tell them how many cubic feet of material they have on site.

Hmmm, a rehab clinic, eh? Maybe one in the British Virgin Islands, or perhaps Tahiti. Hmmm.

Andy, you sound like a smart guy. Enjoy your "Black Friday." :)

Porsche-poor 11-26-2013 06:41 AM

GH85Carrera 11-26-2013 09:10 AM

Jim Richards 11-26-2013 10:15 AM

Cold & wet here. I'm not venturing outside until quitting time.

I guess on-line is on 24 hours a day with no time off. :cool:

RKDinOKC 11-26-2013 11:35 AM

At 45°F ans Sunny I almost wore my shorts to lunch.

Oh boy, just bought a set of pulse matched headers for the 928. The headers that are currently available except for this set are long runner and not equal length pulse matched.

Now do I have a good muffler shop fab me up and x-pipe, or get the Y-pipe cats and borla muffler the guy has.
2 owners ago my car had these headers with Y-pipe and single 4 inch exhaust. With only an adjustable fuel pressure regulator it dynoed 400rwhp.
The last owner put it back to the stock exhaust to pass emissions in Ohio.

Sounds like you're gonna have some fun with your GTS. :eek:

GH85Carrera 11-26-2013 11:54 AM

He ALWAYS has fun with his GTS.

aymericv59 11-26-2013 12:57 PM

Hey guys I'm still here how are you ? :D

Jim Richards 11-26-2013 01:03 PM

Great, as long as I don't have to go outside into the crappy weather. :D

aymericv59 11-26-2013 01:08 PM

What's the weather like ahah ?

Jim Richards 11-26-2013 01:12 PM

38°F and rain. It's going to be heavy rain probably around the time I start on my way home from work.
