Things have been slow around the house. Daughter and wife have the flu again complements of my family.

The truck needs a new radiator. I got pi$$ed at first because I spent about 3 hours straightening fins and cleaning, preping and painting that radiator so it didnt look so nasty. New bolts and washers, but I never pressure tested it, just assumed. Let me break that word down for this situation ***- of u because as soon as i dumped the first bottle, it poored out mid way up. I think i can rob one from my parents though

Daughter is walking finally

Father in-law's mustang finally got back from the lazy painter who isnt that good but cheap.


snapped a pic of mine yesterday while goofing off. first pic since i took that nasty rusted rollbar out 6 month's ago.

that's no joke. I dont think i would even try it. Rode my ninja back in '06 when it was getting down to 35 degrees like it is now at night. 17 miles and i was in blue jeans and a heavy leather riding jacket. When i got home, i got under the covers and 2 hours later I still felt like i was thawing out.

Moral: save it for summer, lol
