Did you get correct children's dimensions?? Did you have to use your slideruler??
Were the little boys scared of you afterwards?
How did you explain to the parents that you wanted to measure their son's penis?
Or is it "one size fits all"?
Did you use any leftover parts from your car?

All these weird questions spring to mind....

One size fits all, Geronimo. I can send you a sample if you feel inclined to try it out. A bottle of wine, some hand lotion and you are set.

Best send a Swedish nurse as well, just to make sure everything is connected correctly...
When I am finished, do I send it back full to the hospital or to your home adress???
Who will pay for shipping charges and import duty??
How long can I keep the nurse?

Damn! All these weird questions in my head....

The roads have not improved in 15 years, trust me. when they do build a stretch of new road, they build it with 2 lanes (yes, ONE in each direction) with a center divider so that no one can pass - thus less chances of anyone getting hurt...

Thanks, Jeff!

All in all, not a bad life when you think about it. No pestering women and a sound life stile.

I had an interesting evening last night. I watched a master machinist work. He actually invited me over to his house to watch him do some machine work on a 911 3.2 engine case. He showed me how to set up the case to make sure it is square and then he did some milling with a Bridgeport. The Bridgeport he has was made in 1953. It is just massive, and very cool.

For any machinist it would be boring as heck but for a computer geek like me it was very interesting. I have fabricated many tools or patches in my garage over the years. Nothing I did was even close to what this guy does. He had a set of 911 heads that he had just finished rebuilding. He will start assembly of the engine next weekend after a more cleaning. He invited me over to watch the engine assembly. I should be at home putting the front suspension back together on my 911 but I may have to "help" him assemble a 911 engine. I will ask him if he minds me taking a few photos.

A good Machinist is hard to find and worth their weight in gold

Yep, and this guy is good. And he is an amazing mechanic as well. He lives in the country and has enough property to do whatever he wants, whenever he feels like it.

I have figured out that I have AADD.

Automobile Attention Deficiency Disorder.

I spent all morning looking at GT2's on Ebay. did you know you can get an 02/03 one of those for $60G's?? You couldn't buy a used Prius for that over here!!

They are still selling for $250K here. Import duties are around $100K - do the math!
