We had a bunch of crazy policies. Then my brother got rid of them all and stated that we didn't need policies if people used good character as a guide. Then they hired about 5 more people in the HR department and they evidently did not have enough to do because came out with an big new policy manual with all kinds of stupid rules.

You will get fired if caught sitting on the tank of the toilet. Seems someone was going to the restroom, sitting on the tank with his feet on the seat so they would not show, and sleeping. He fell off and broke his arm. We now have a stupid rule, no sitting on the toilet tank.

The 928 has big cold air intake tubes that run from the front above the radiator all the way to the back of the motor where the air cleaner box is located. There was some discussion about lining the tubes with seal skin because of it's low friction qualities. Then another guy suggested lining them with the dimpled skin of golf balls. Then another guy posted that they were wating their time. He filled his intake tubes with golf balls and the car didn't run worth a darn.

Is that like when some moron pulls out in front of you, you just barely miss them, but YOU KNOW they've done that before because their car is already dented where you would have hit them?

I had the AC cranked up and when I pulled into the garage to check the oil I noticed the suction side of the AC compressor was frozen with frost. The evaporator never freezes up even on long trips. It just blows COLD and I love it.

I also have new Bilstiens and new rubber bushings in the suspension components.

So...do you think nipple lube was a birthday present if someone were buying it and a birthday card at the same time? Read a tip that if you were buying something embarrassing to get a birthday card with it.

On a hot and humid day I've actually had snow blow out of the center vent on my 928 with the a/c on.

You guys learning to be Pirates?

Wonder what modern day pirates would do if while they were approaching a boat it raised the Jolly Roger and started firing cannons at them!
