Here's hoping. If not there does seem to be a few here that know these engines pretty well.

I have though more than once of having a shovel and a couple bags of lime sitting in my office but the people it would be most effective on don't visit my part of the campus. Having a roll of carpet along with it might be too much but I could always say I miss my commercial flooring days.

Always maintain a 3S level. If you get to 4 you are Screwed.

I have heard that lime is the wrong product to use. It may well help preserve the body. Use fertilizer instead. Dig a deep vertical hole like for a utility pole, and plant a decent size tree on top.

We have what they call the 5 S efficiency program at work. The five S words are Japanese. I suspect they really mean, "Suck on it you big fat lazy Americans."

I have a new 12 S program.

Just repeat 5hit a dozen times when I am told that the rubber gaskets I used when I put my crate engine intake on should NOT be used even though the instructions indicate you should. "Everyone knows that" but never mention to anyone putting a crate engine into their El Camino.

OK, the plan is a small tree in a planter, a shovel and a couple good bags of fertilizer.

By the way I need some help. Mom and I disagree with how my wife and I raise our kids. She thinks there are some things a 4 year old shouldn't know about and I don't see anything wrong with it. For example, when we brought the car to pick up the kids at my parents house I let dad take it for a drive. They live about 4 blocks from the edge of town and by the end of those four blocks dad got on it a bit and Jacob hollers our "POWERSLIDE PAPA!". Mom asked about it and I said "Duh, we have some rwd vehicles".

I didn't have the heart to tell Jacob it is a frond wheel drive vehicle. He thinks front wheel drive is stupid (and for anything other than a basic DD I agree). Good thing dad told him it was too new to be hooning around in yet so I get to put that talk off for a bit.

By the way, I am completely caught up. I did not watch every video and some were no longer available. Go figure.

Oh, and for all of you that served for the US and her allies, THANK YOU!.

Was standing by my 928 outside my Mom's friends house waiting for Mom. Four year old neighbor kid walks up, points to my bald rear tires and says, "You like to peel out."

Kids are very perceptive and not afraid to speak their mind. In a snowy parking lot last year we were sliding each turn to get out of the frontage road and he is back there cackling like a madman and my wife sounds more like Sharyn as Jeff went up the dune. Saying my name of course. Don't want to get Jeff in any more trouble.

OK, all we need now is a picture of you.

You know what we look like. I am sure you read the rules on several different posts.

So the side profile wasn't good enough? I can find a full frontal (non-Jeff like for everyones comfort) picture if I need one. My wife's favorite is pre-flighting a Cessna.
