Yea, she did every job possible except the stuff that HAD to be done by trained professionals. No lion feeding or cleaning out cages of dangerous animals.

She painted the rocks that are in some of the enclosures as they were under construction, and every employee out there knew her by name. She could sign to several of the gorillas and many of the gorillas knew her.




I took this picture of her and Tatu. He normally did not sit by the window but he saw her and he came right over. No Photoshop work on this except to crop it some. This is my big brother.

Nope, he is not on the insurance! And he can't drive a stick shift.

I wish I had him handy when I was trying to get my front anti-roll bar installed. I put on the new bushings and I swear the bar grew somehow. I had to use a ratchet strap to get it into place. Tatu could have just bent it into place with ease. They claim an adult male gorilla has the strength of 10 or possibly 20 strong human males.

looks like a movie about an alien looking at your primitive human carriage.

It is neat how the oil filter glows hot and the AC suction hose is so cold.

TGIF!

My DME has arrived at the master guru of the DME, Steve Wong's place. He said my description of symptoms for my 911 is almost a classic of the DME and virtually every DME will experience it at some point. While digging around for solutions to issues I did find a guy that makes a 100% solid state DME relay. He claims is it engineered to have no issues with the demands on the typical DME relay. So I will have a 100% solid DME and DME relay when Steve gets done with my unit. I am past ready.

Been so long since been out in the 928 wouldn't care if it was raining or not. In fact, it would help wash the dust off!

Would have to make sure the wipers are good though.

It's lunchtime here.

Not that it is healthy, but...the healthiest fast food hamburger based on calories, carbs, sodium, and protein is the Burger King Whopper.

Ha ha ha ha...Our PC guy tired to setup my Win10 so I could access some stuff.
Instead of doing that, now my Win10 can't do anything. NOTHING!
Instead to telling what serve to log into and what to install, he basically disabled me being able to run any programs so he could make my computer part of the domain and install a remote access program. After he finally got that done he couldn't log into the servers at the office the VPN wouldn't even run. Then he left me without being able to use my Win10 machine. That was at 2pm yesterday.

My computer did NOT need to be a domain member, just needed to tell me what servers I needed into and what files I needed, I have Admin access on everything and only need to log in.

Good thing I only let him mess with my test environment Win10 virtual machine or I wouldn't be able to do anything today.

Being in band while in HS, had to go march in those things. Even got to lead it my senior year as the drum major.

Also had to attend all the football and basketball games. At least for the basketball games we didn't have to wear our marching band uniforms. Just jeans and a red golf shirt.
