Good Morning!!!! 62F @ 5:30AM. A good deal of sunshine. High near 80F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.
I'll never understand what motivates people to behave badly toward one another. I just know that life is too short to tolerate that kind of behavior and do my best to keep those types at arm's length. Sorry you had to deal with that, Kyle. Just remember there's a reason the "Ignore" feature was put here on TBN.:grumpy:
You'er a very lucky man to have such a fine boy, Eric. Very generous of you to share with him the joys of spud bars and shovels, too!:laughing:
Count me in on the sugar free sports drink fan club. I started drinking Power Aide Zero when I found out they fit the cup holders in the truck better than the "G" brand. But I wish they'd bring back the larger mouths on the bottle; the smaller holes are harder to hit in the middle of the night when I'm out camping!:laughing:
Pulled the wiring harness for the old BMW out of a box yesterday and felt like I was dealing with a wad of snakes. It was all tangled and filthy, but fortunately only a bit of it was greasy/oily. Once I got it straightened out it was actually in pretty good shape, except for the front where it had been altered somewhat clumsily to work with a "rally computer" that replaced the traditional cable driven speedometer. It was state-of-the-art in its day, and horrendously expensive, but that was thirty years ago and it probably belongs in a museum. Unfortunately the original parts weren't included in the deal, and they're no longer available from BMW. So I'll patch up the bad wiring and go with what's there for now, but there is a new generation of instruments available at very reasonable cost that provide a lot of additional functionality. Some even use GPS technology for the speedo/odometer, but I'm not convinced that's very reliable based on the signal dropouts I experience with the XM radio. Anyway, got a good start on installing the harness yesterday, and will get a lot farther today.
Hope everyone enjoys yet another Hump Day. To me they seem to be coming along faster than ever before...
