great morning for a BMW repair

8F outside, heading back to the car from dropping the little guy off and the ole e39 is boiling everywhere making lime snow...

put a new expansion tank cap on this morning as it the orignal was seeping, topped off the coolant. the s
press seal on the tank, where top and bottom part meet let go. luckily made it home and I'll try to source the part locally today, without calling the stealer

Morning folks. I am still recovering at home. I am feeling much better. Good drugs. The Tussionex cough medicine is great sleepy time stuff. And it helps my cough as well. Funny how couch medicine does that.

I would rather still be up at 530, than to have to get up that early, no matter how much sleep I've gotten. I'm not a morning person at all.

Glad you're feeling better Glen.



Just one more work day for me this week. Friday, I'm watching a plumber spend my money.

Good morning.

Don't like worms so not into the early bird thing.

When I am away from home, I do usually go to bed late and wake up early. Not sure if it's a lack of comfort thing, or a defensive response. Maybe a little of both.

That pizza may be garlicy, but you have to be careful, it's not garlic oil, or smashed garlic cloves, or roasted garlic that is the antiseptic in your blood stream, it's granulated Garlic Powder.

Also found the odor free garlic capsules found at the health food store do not work either.
Well the pizza is the crusshed cloves.

Amen to that.

RE the video. I have seen that reaction a lot. Sometimes followed by "I gotta get one of these". Most of the time it is girls that want one even though it royally messes with their hair. I had one close friend clutch her hands over her heart and stop breathing and was wide eyed through second gear which was 85mph with the gearing it had then. I asked if she was OK and she just started laughing and giggling so I assumed she was but she never asked for another ride.

Glen, glad you are on the mend. Sounds like you got the drugs going early and it wasn't as bad as it could have been.

Guy's wife rode with me for an ax fun run lap. Any time I was going straigh ie. accelerating she was laughing hysterically, when I hit the brakes and turned she screamed bloody murder. Ask her if she wanted me to slow down, she said, "No, I'm never doing anything like this again."

My friend Johnny who has a 502 powered alcohol burning Jag likes to take women for rides at the autocross, which for him is a tire fry. This one girl you could hear screaming over the Jag the entire time he was running, it was great. She did ride with him again

Beth is on an Ebay kick, selling stuff so I decided to go look through some old movie posters I have from my days in the theater and low and behold some of these are going for a mint. I have originals that have never been folded, Like Purple rain and Ziggy Stardust, yeah.......
People are paying stupid money for this crap, they can have it
