Buster,

Ahem... well, uh........<looking down> NO !

Oh, no I didnt do that mod. I did buy the kit...but I just gave it away to AmishCrackDealer as a "pay it forward". I realized I needed the expensive Power Commander also...and I found out I also was going to be illegal after the mod. If you read that thread you saw the comments about a $10,000 dollar fine for modification of emissions controls? If some policeperson knew their stuff and pulled me over that is not a legal mod. I decided not to take that chance... my bike looks cool enough...

Annie

GADZOOKS! I am tired this morning.... Even got a sleep "hangover" I rode up to Glasgow last night, right in the middle of rush-hour it was TORTURE!! I laid some more flooring for a couple of hours and rode back home (in the most horrible wind and rain you can imagine. Still... 'twas better than driving

Great news.... training today has been cancelled, so I may sneak away early (LIKE 10am!!!!!) YEHAAAAAA!!

Have a great tuesday everyone.

Good morning, think we are in for some high winds today, gusts to 50 mph. Probably have a dust storm too. At least it's not cold.

Had a quick check up at the doctor this morning. Yup, it's confirmed. I'm still alive.

Went into the office, and found that some Bozo in London had reconfigured our firewall last night just before going home, effectively blocking ALL network traffic to and from our Basel office. IDIOT! In all, we were totally off line for 12 hours, until lunchtime today.

So I decided to leave the office and go back home, where I can at least access the Internet! Woohoo! Work from home day!

We have had light snow for the last 3 days.
It is no longer light, it is closing in on a foot.
Had to shovel out so the wife can open the Park Office this morning.
Warm up and then go shovel a few neighbours out.

I am not a fan of Snow, but I saw where Whitehorse is -37C, with a windchill of -47C.

Given the choice I will shovel.

65F and cloudy here today. I slid under the wife's suburban this morning to change the fuel filter only to discover it's a flex fuel vehicle, turns out I have the wrong filter. I'm going to have to do a little research on changing this filter. If anyone knows, please tell me, it's a threaded nut on one end and appears to just push on, on the other.

Yeah, just unscrew one end and pull out the other...

My pleasure sir, always here to help

Good morning all, looks like another short day.. no training.. To quote the wee blue guy Yippee!

And. just to add insult to injury, it has just cost me £450.00 ($900.00 Mickey Mouse) to evict the sample of pond life that has been living in my flat down south for a year and not paid any rent. Still they won't get rehoused via the council because they're classed as "voluntary homeless". Sweet revenge.

Oh er 36 and dry (for a change)

Happy Wednesday
