'We know Alcohol burns sweet, but we have to burn more of it. I have alcohol on my workbench
in the basement to ignite the flame that melts the glue stuff to put on new pads for the Sax's. Sure
I like to redo old Sax's that have good looking shiny body's left. Occasionally I find one that really
looks old and worn, went thru the playing hell of Blues but it's still a great sounder with the good
mouthpiece, valves repaired and Reed.

They won't get any thanks from me.

Good day gentlemen. Big cities here require alcohol in gasoline and the Busses run CNG.
If I add Gumout Rogane with a tank of gasoline once a month Turbos 2.7L, it gets 27 mpg.
That's at speeds of around 60 mph on 2 lane blacktop's, steady driving for 100 miles,
reduced carbon, increased MPG.

Good evening guys, a very light shower this afternoon but it's warming up here this weekend so I can get back at cutting grass and spraying dandelions.

Hey Guys, Rainy day here. Mosquiotoes are getting pretty bad now. Very wet spring. Edit - and all of a sudden, not a cloud in the sky and sunny.

John, how goes it? Feel better..

No mosquitoes so far, think it was too cool for them to hatch.
Sound like John is still in a lot of pain, likely once he feels better he be back.
What's happening in the Mid West Papa?

It looks like the 3 Big Rivers are at near flood level and the coming gully washers will cause widespread creeks flooding in all those Hollows. The Confluences of the 3 large Rivers north of St. Louis have tons of Hills and Hollows (rough country) Think of it as hill Billy heavens. western St. Louis County is mostly the same, just lots of Concrete and the Meramak River can also be a badass.

Afternoon Morris, was nice and sunny here, kind of grey now. Thunderstorms rolling in later from the look of it.

Tomorrow is another workday. Fun in the sun is over. The Competition was rough but the kids won. Ugh. ....

John, please try a wet hot towel around your neck every hour or so to get some relief from your pain. Were you working on your side without a pillow to rest on under a vehicle?
