I've got a stockpile of parts I haven't had time to deal with, this weekend was nice but we haven't been home. Sequestration should help us get some more done... Although it might adversely effect the paint budget. Grrr

Rode to Supercar Sunday today. I thought it would be quiet, as it's not the last Sunday of the month (typically the big day), but wow there were a couple hundred cars there. Lamborghini was the featured marque, so there were about 50 or 60 of them there. One Countach; that was the oldest Lambo. Everything else was newer than that.

Coming home, I noticed the voltage on the bike at 11.7v. Uh oh, that's not right. Now I've got something else to track down.

On the flip side, Rick, changing out the fuel filter and plugging up the AAV seems to have cured the no warm-start problem in the 930.

Well I just got to supervise the daughter changing her oil. Looks like I won't have to be changing her oil anymore.

Keep telling yourself that Rick. Maybe you can believe it.

Of course but, this is the first weekend the weather hasn't been crap and we had to be out of town. I've also been sick all week.. Priorities and parental obligations come first. The reward of watching joe this weekend was well worth it and the Porsche knows her time is coming

Criminey Sake!!! Had to buy some 4x4 square gauze to keep my foot bandaged. The stuff I had from the Doc and home care looks like cheese cloth. The stuff I got at Walgreens has some sort of paper layer, looks like a paper towel. Well, that paper layer sealed the wounds instead of letting them breath and made all the open places on my foot bigger!!! My foot is not only worse, it's started bleeding so now I am sure I am NOT supposed to get it wet again. &^%#!! cheap arse money grubbing companies, why do they have to do that?! I'm am sure the paper layer they replaced the actual gauze layer with is cheaper and they tout it as being more absorbent. Heck, if I needed absorbent I would have strapped a Maxi Pad to my foot! And I may have to the way it is bleeding now.

I also got so Arthritis strength tylenol, it has this freaking snap off cap that I am absolutely sure that NO person with actual arthritis could get off. I can hardly open it and I don't have arthritis. What is with these people!!!! Same thing with the stupid foil cards they put pills on. The people that came up with this stuff, and the people that approved it ought to be fired and kicked in the head repeatedly.

The rampant stupidity of the Walmart make everything cheaper mentality abounds.

Richard, I have arthritis in the fingers and hands and I can rarely get most of the caps, jars, bottles, foils open, I usually have get the hubby or Midget to do it for me, and my arthritis isn't that bad.

I usually use a pocket knife to open the snap caps on meds. My hands are pretty bad but they are going to be much worse when I put down my wrenches.
Richard I say a letter to the editor or something along those lines is warranted in regard to the gauze crap.
