Well, I just got another offer from another man that doesn't have to relocate to be my cook and house "man". Which just makes me laugh. I think most men would go nuts after two weeks of cleaning and cooking. Heck, I lasted only a wee bit longer.

I wish I was there to just watch, help. I really should reach out to AZ pelicans and hang out in some of the garages and learn.

I get it honestly... My Gram who just passed would put on big Sunday lunch spreads.. Given all that work, she basically declared "Detante" for dinner. Being Swede descent, they put milk and cream on everything.... Growing up, we often had "breakfast" for dinner. Mom had us bamboozeled into thinking those times were special treats.

Good parenting right there....92% bamboozling.

Jim... Captain Crunch! Reminds me of a story. My dad worked at a plant next to a big Quaker Oats plant in town and I remember when King Vitamin first came out. As a promotion they gave away CASES of KV. My dad brought home two cases and it seemed to last forever...

I now think of King Vitamin as a "Gateway" cereal,,,hahhaha.
Gateway cereal...hahahaha!!!

That'll take care of pesky stuck bolts on your 944, Jeff.

Closing in on 20k posts. Number 20,000 needs to be epic. Must start thinking....

Hmmmmmm,

What a dilemma.... Do you go for Tech, something witty in Off Topic or a throwaway in PARF?

Rick, if I could be left out of the "honey doos" I would be much much further along. I was kidnapped and "got" to drive my wife to see her mother, and haul home two chairs. That killed all of Saturday. Sunday was 1/2 day at dad's house and the most of the rest of the day doing yard work. Last week I had one evening killed because of a PCA board meeting and one other evening killed doing other things.

Tonight after dinner I will spend several hours in the garage and get a lot done, I hope!
