Curiousity, Rick. Why did you chase older women? I find that I get hit on by the young fellas. A lot. And a lot younger. Early 20s... Oldest has been 29. What is the fascination?

I just didn't like the giggling little school girl attitude, and I like a woman who already has an idea about what she wants. Not only that, when you are 17ish and you are dating a 25+year old, you get to learn a lot

Polite? Why would there be a reason to be rude? Or OK, I am naive? But that's why I am asking the question! Remember? I need to get out more often.

Well...frock.

928 started making turkey call noises when I first start it up. Dropped by shop to check the a/c compressor belt tension. There were a couple of extra bolt laying in the belly pan from the back of the compressor. Without those bolts it broke the bracket that holds it. Called the guy that did the cam job and told him what I found. He said he must of gotten to torque wrong and to send him a bill for the repair.

Hoping I can get it fixed before I leave for Kansas Friday.

Well if you read between the lines of my answer about age you will know why I was polite.

There really is not a torque spec for that bracket, sounds like he just left them loose period. That sucks

I hope that is the only torque setting he got wrong!

Well we are all gussied up. Well as dressed up as I will get. Dockers & a shirt with buttons and Rockport shoes. The invite says business casual. For me that is shorts & a t-shirt like my every day uniform. The Mrs. insists that business casual is freaking LONG pants and no jeans.

Tomorrow night is "Black tie optional" I will have on the exact same "outfit". I will not tie something around my neck and wear a damn COAT in 100 degree weather. Ain't gonna happen, ever.
