I wondered about that Pat. I haven't been on a water slide since my college days. They kill my lower back.

How on earth are they going to keep the raft in that track? I'll stick to jumping off buildings, thank you.

Initially, it didn't stay in the tracks. There is a video on YouTube, of it flying off of the tracks on that sencond hill. I know they have nets all the way down now. I still want to try it!

Hi Ken. I'm extremely busy watching the grass dry so I can finish mowing.

Tip the car upside down so the oil drains out, Ken. It might get messy so a large portable swimming pool is needed. After oil is drained, taste it and season to taste. Good idea to have a bottle of bourbon handy to add to the flavor of the oil.

Probably the best method, Ken. I think you should video yourself doing this, so you can pass it on to others needing the same info.....

No video...I can't find the wide angle lens. I think I should leave these complicated projects to the professionals!!!

Do what Pat does...........

Pat takes a pen and pad of paper.
He writes the task on the pad....."Check Oil".
Then he puts a check mark in front of the task written on the pad.

Exausted........he opens a beer and falls into his favorite chair. Job Done...
