grrrrrr

Changed out plugs which were suprizingly not wet with fuel, verified good spark, swapped FP relays, checked cap/rotor but the 911 still will not run. The battery is fully charged as well.

It will almost "want" to run but won't. I verified the CD box whine as well as the squeal from the airbox valve. It seems like it will on the fuel squirt when I manually move the airbox plate arm.

I'm thinking the fuel pump is not running. I need to stop messing with it for now. Taking the kids to the park before it rains.

It ran perfectly when I parked it in January. grrrrrr

Wayne/Saucy, sorry for your loss guys.


Camped in a campground tonight - we needed a shower. Over the years we've spent several nights here under ground. It's real weird the first time when you turn the lights out. Absolute darkness. Folks here are real odd.

They still have an old drive-in theatre, a sign on the gate says 'no explosives allowed'.

Nope, never played golf here, and will never want to. The games hard enough without that sort of punishment.

And I believe Glen is right, the name is aboriginal (a lot of that sort of thing goes on out here).

There's a bloody mozzie in the tent keeping me awake

Wow.

The mail just arrived and we got a Victoria's Secret catalog. Man, where were those catalogs when I was 14! We had to resort to National Geographic to see boobs, and that was enough to scar a kid.

All the models are pretty, and look like they are just 18 if that. And they ALL are looking like they are trying to do calculus or trying to solve the ISIS problem and Mideast peace. All of them have deeply worried looks on their faces. Not a single one has a hint of a smile. And yes I did look at their faces, after a while.

They're all wondering when their trainer will allow them to eat a meal and not toss it back up.

I personally knew a couple of these idolized female specimens...they're less than attractive in real life, they all hate themselves, and if they're not lezzies they are as easy to ride as the park bench.

Aw crap, now it's starting to rain.

I guess it'll be first light in about an hour and we'll get going. We'll be home by lunchtime and put the tent back up so it can dry.

7 hours to go and see my fur kid, woohoo!

Yea, I worked in the professional photography field for many years. A large percentage of the models are just a girl that has gotten by on looks all her life.

We worked a few favorites that were normal women and were true professionals. It is amazing to see a real model smile on command and make you think she just saw the love of her live. A 100% real warm smile on command.

One big shoot we did was for a casual wear clothing catalog. A swarm of ladies came in and took over the ladies bathroom - dressing room and made a HUGE mess. They would go back in there to change clothes and throw the clothes on the floor.

We did not ever hire that modeling agency again.

Argh...day has be a gritch. CEO keeps trying to use his email. The sent items folder, every email he has ever sent is too big for his client and it causes it to delete recent items off the server. Moved items to archive, but he won't let anyone reset his client so the sent items will update. So IT KEEPS DELETING ITEMS EVERY TIME HE STARTS UP HIS CLIENT. ARGH!

And to make matters worse, the man is my brother. AAARGH.

He called the IT Department head this morning and complained that his email was wonky. This was after I worked on in a couple of hours last night and was waiting for the password his assistant had put on the account so I could move the sent items to archive folders. Thankfully, when he complained the department head told him I was the best man for the job.

BUT....ARGH!!!

Heard from previous owner again today. He bought a 93 GTS. I know the car and it has lots of mods and almost 300,000 miles. AND it is burning a qt of oil every 600 miles. Looks nice though, if you like polar silver/black cars.

Says he still wants my car when I'm ready to sell.

I don't have time to talk chicks right now. Got the 911 running but very rough like it's not hitting all 6 holes. At least I can rule out the fuel pump being bad so that's good.

Guys sorry to her the loss of the critters.
Wayne, you sure you didn't have a mouse chew some vac lines over the winter? Also make sure the pop off valve is sealed, if you are still running CIS
