Hay someone pruned my tree in the front yard for me. I noticed last night that there were footprints in the snow around the tree in the front yard. Well today in day light I can see there are fresh cuts on the tree where some of the limbs were cut off. Must have been done by the people who look after the park across the street. They were out there pruning last week so must have done those trees that are around the park too. I see the neighbors also had theres done. Considering I have no idea how to prune a tree like that and an about 25 ft to short to do it properly I dont mind one bit if they want to do it for me.
MG Update
Picked up the new fuel tank today. I cleaned all the packaging wax off and primed painted and undercoated the top of the new tank. Gotta leave it for a couple days to set up before I finsih the sides though. I Primed and painted what I could on the sides but until the top is dry enough I cant really flip it around to undercoat the sides completely. I'll do the botom when the tank is attached to the car. I really dont want to be messing around with fitting the tank while the botom is covered in messey undercoat. I took the old tank out already and sure enough three little pin holes in the top of the tank. I cleaned off the old undercoat that was on the body above the tank. I was impressed with what I found under it. The undercoat was pretty soft because of all the gas that had been absorbed into it so it came off pretty easily. The best part is...... The metal was in perfect condition under there. :) I wasnt sure what to expect when I got the tank down. Didn't think it would be to bad but sometimes you just dont know what you will find. Anyhow Cleaned off the old undercoat and preped for new primer, paint and under coat..... It looks beter than new under there now.
The only problem so far is the old tank was vented and the new one has no vent. Looks like I'm going to have to get a vented gas cap to avoid vapor lock or at least drill a small hole in the old one so that its vented.
out with the old
in with the new
Hmmmm now I'm mad.......... I stopped by IGA on the way home and I asked the cashier for the money out of the till. She wouldn't give it to me......... I cant beieve the nerve of some people. I even said please. Hmmm, She just giggled like a 16 yr old girl in heat and said no I couldn't have it.
Actually they they were taking money out of the till when I got up there so I offered to take some too. Even after bs'ing with her for a couple mins she the only money she would give me was the change. Thats it I'm never going to talk to her again. Well at least until I need some milk again. Get out of the gutter I'm talking about the kind that comes in the plastic jugs not the flesh ones.
Speaking of theft........ Sounds like Andre's can now advertise with "The last shoplifter died for his crimes so you better ask yourself if you feel lucky before trying it". No sympathy from me for the slime bag who died for his crimes.
Well back to reality........
I hate temporary internet files. They did it to me again. I was having problems with MSN Money and the importing of bank records. Just wouldn't work. I managed to DL a file and play around trying to make it work and no mater what I did it wouldnt import. Well I decided to clean out my temp files and now the imports work flawlessly. Friggin corupt internet files once again caused a headache.
Oh well gotta check and see if my cross drilled brake lines are on there way yet. I also ordered the syntetic headlight fluid.
Hay cool.... I just ordered some new cross drilled brake lines for the MG. According to the web site if cross drilled rotors help cooling the brakes, then these brake lines should definately stop you from boiling the brake fluid.
go to http://www.kalecoauto.com/ to check em out.
Got my new compuer at work now..... WWWOOOOOOOOOHHHHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! P4 2.5 GHZ. Now If I can only get a 21 inch monitor at work and some decent speekers. My setup will be the same as home.
By the way modded the B and B site to use style sheets and improved the setup for google to index better.
Hay guess what I got in my pay cheque today. A card that gives me a discount at lordco. Geeee something I always wanted. A piece of plastic that has a picutre of James on it to put in my wallet. Oh well I'll toss it in the glove box. Never know when it might come in handy if I'm not around the Kelowna store and need to buy something for a discount. Or if I ever have to to do some of that midnight parts shopping when I'm in Burnaby. Now I know I can. I wonder if they sell milk and munchies like they do in other convenience stores.
I guess its a good idea cause not everyone at sunrype knows the staff in the store already. But I hate little plastic cards and I really dont want to walk around with a picture of James. Theres much better looking girls around there to put on instead.
Looks like I'll have a new big boss soon.... finally announced it will be Eric Sorensen. For some reason I know that name but I dont know why.
Hmmmmm if Lucky baboo dies how lucky is it really. I think one of mine is on its way to the big bamboo plot in the sky. Of course this happens after I decided I couldn't kill it so got a better pot for it. I probably killed it when I moved it. Oh well I pulled the yellowing one out and will see what it looks like tomorrow. If its more yellow its gone and I'm going to take a chainsaw to it. I know that 3 stalks means something and 5 stalks means wealth I think. I wonder what 4 means cause thats what I'll have left.
Well must go clean the cats craper for garbage day. Already got the 5 million tonnes of recycling stuff together for tomorrow.
Yeah sure it was an accident that there was a little skin shown as part of the 1/2 time show. Thats why a little metal sun was put on the boobies. Afterall everyone I know puts a decorative cover on there nip's when there going to go out fully clothed. If it was an accident then the streaker must have just forgot to put his clothes on before running out onto the field. Get real. Anyhow who cares. It was about 1/2 a second of a boob....... wanna see mine? I'll show them both at the same time if you want. Its not like she had a young boy up there with her........ Oh wait a sec thats the other Jackson.
Woooohooooo I dont leak anymore. Ok well my crapper doesn't leak anymore. Had to replace the old flapper on the old crapper int the old bedroom so it would quit running and waking me up in the night.
I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. I HATE SNOW.............. Its only 7:30 and I've already done the driveway twice since I got home and will probably do it one more time before I go to bed and then again in the morning.
OK OK OK OK OK OK OK OK OK enough already... yes I'm satisfied with the smallness of my love muscle (Wait a sec that came out wrong). But anyhow quit sending me emails trying to seell me magic potions and snake oil to make it bigger.
Did I mention I friggin hate snow. Went to Crappy tire and the roads are pretty slick out there. I only got 4 more of those containers. I figured that should give me enough to unbox the restof my books and pick some of the stuff up off the garage floor. Besides I've dropped enough at crappy tire of these things. Just short of $70 so far but it makes life much easier so its worth it, and now I have all this room I didn't know I had before. All my books will fit under the stairs with the luggage too and there will still be room to put a couple of bodies in there too.
Holly crap do I have alot of crap around here in boxes. There must be a million dollars worth of text books. I went and picked up 4 more of those storage units from crappy tire to get my text books and stuff out of boxed and into something a little more sturdy and stackable. Well I filled up 3 of them and the 4th one is broken so it has to go back. Good news........... I actually have concrete under all those boxes of books. I think I'll pick up another 4 more when I exchange the broken one too. The recycle people are going to think I just moved in with all the broken down boxes I have to put out. Oh well it looks a tonne better now and I'm not even finished yet.
The basement looks so much more organized I'm going to do the garage with them too. Put the MG parts into them and get everything put away. Hmmmm Maybe I should get more than that. After all the ones I got today were going to partly be for some of my clothes. I can only get 4 maybe 5 in the trunk at a time though. Oh well I'll head down there after moster garage and exchange the one and get some more and see where I sit then.
Found this kicking around and decided to scan and post it.
Its Outta here............ Took the big ugly desk out of my office and put it in the one day to become an office room when I get it done. Its cool down there now. Have the desk sitting right infront of the window so I can watch the world go by. Now I have to bring the spare couch into here so I can set the bed back up in the spare bedroom.
Wooohooo just Downloaded Lindows Developer. They were giving it away for free so I set up the DL went out shoveled the 12billion tonnes of snow thats on my driveway then went for a beer with Scott up the street and when I came back.......... Its done all 500 megs of it. So burned it to cd in about 3 minutes total including the time to took to find the blank CD. Now I have to find another computer to try it out on. Hmmmmmmmm I'm thinking I may have to rape my server of one of the HD's.
What to do what to do.
8 gig for Clark connect firewall
80 gig for W2K file / apache HTML/PHP server
80 gig on big bertha upsairs
so I could move everything off the 40 gig onto the server 80 gig, but then I'd have to reconfigure the server and I dont want to have to do that............. HHHHHHEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP anyone want to donate another 40 gig for me to play with lindows on? Maybe I'll check the specs and see if I can get it up on a 2 gig or repartition this one. OK enough geek talk.
Good news..... some guy named DR DANSUKI DAN sent me an email and wants me to help him get $38.5 million US out of Nigeria and when its done I will get 30% of it. That means I'll have 11.5 million US in the bank soon. Wooooohoooooo. Maybe I shouldn't tell you his name incase one of you reading this sends him your bank account and try to take my money.
Ok its all set up now using style sheets for formating. A few more changes to be made to get more stuff dependant on the style sheet but were almost there.
How about the new tearsheets for the stuff I type. Kinda a pain in the but to build cause each sheet is 6 picutures but its kinda different and I like different.
You are a freak..........................................
That is all
HHHHmmnmmmmm does investors group provide misleading information???? YES
while what they say about borrowing and extra $5K and putting it into RRSP is technically correct they do not consider everything. Like how much it will cost you to borrow that $5 K into the RRSP to begin with.
Income out of an RRSP is taxable at 100 % Assuming a 23% tax rate net. suddenly your additional $34 K is only $26 K after tax. Hmmm now wait a sec you have to borrow the $5 to begin with Assuming 5% interest your $5 K investment has cost you $16,900. Hay now your only up $9.5 K
OK now lets say we didn't really borrow the money for the full 25 years and we paid it back the following year instead so interest only cost us $250 for the year. But wait if we did that then that $5000 less that we dont have to invest in the RRSP the following year.
So Finally lets not borrow the $5K and just put the $5 plus interest that we have into an RRSP. and then rather than paying off the loan that we didn't have to take to buy the extra 5K we invest that the following year. Hmmm the RRSP is worth $67.5K at the end of 25 years rather than $68K. Oh but wait we haven't taken the 23% tax out yet Hay now were only down $700 from the borrow option. Well look at that were not really $34K ahead after all were only ahead $700 which is basically the compounding on the extra $400 earned by making the deposit 1 year earlier.
So there additional $34 K in savings happens to be only $700 when you look at the whole picture. Gee imagine that deceptive advertising.
There is also some savings by having the tax refund, but there example did not assume refund reinvestment so neither did I. There is also the issue of changes in tax rates from year to year, and you may be better off from a tax refund standpoint to have an RRSP contribution in Yr2 as income may be higher but with the assumptions made of no refund reinvestment that really doesn't play into the equation. Depending on your taxable income level there is a pretty good chance that by deducting $10 in one year you will reduce yourself into a lower tax bracket where your not getting as much bang for your buck as you could by having deducting $5K per year and haveing the full 10K returning at the higher tax bracket. So that $700 could even be less when thats added to the equation.
Anyhow thats the end of my rant for today. I'm not saying IG is committing fraud by saying what they have as technically they are correct, but when you consider more of the picture than just the frame $34K is really $700 or potentially less. Oh yeah and I wont even talk the Present value of that $700 Ok yes I will, at 2% inflation thats roughly $450 in current purchasing power.
OK Porsche (or poor sche)owners can be really stupid..... Dont turn left on clifton infront of moving cars when on ice. Idiot. Most people wouldn't have attempted that on dry streets but your stupid enough to try it on ice. Consider yourself lucky to be alive after that stunt. If I was in my Jeep you would be dead now cause these no way in hell I could have brought that to a stop as fast as I can in the car. Also your lucky the guy that was behind me has more brains in his ear than you have in your whole head (Or is that "hole in your head") and was smart enough to leave space between him and me so he could stop too.
Are all Porsche owners as stupid as you or are you just exceptionally mentally challenged?
Anybody want a scanner?????? $5 billion. Printed off a picture that I took with the Digital cam a while back. Printed it to 5x7 on semi gloss photo paper. Let it dry and cut it out, framed it and put it on the wall. Amazing quality. Cant tell the diference between the one I printed off and a normal picture.
Tested the Scanner part to see what kind of quality it scans at. Lets just say is scans at to high a resolution. A 4x6 pic can be turned into a 1.5 gig file on my pc if I put it at the highest resolution. I set it to something a little more reasonable and make a 4x6 into a 10 meg jpeg. I dont think I'll be scanning at something that high unless its tiny. Other than the speed at that high a res. it picks up everything on the picture including specs of dust that the eye cant see. They can be fixed though. Anyhow this far exceeds what my old scanner was able to do so if you want my old one yell. Oh and yes I can set the new one to scan at a lower res so not all scanns will be that big.
Mmmmmmm shinnnnney new All in One. Just had to buy it. it was cheaper to get this than replace the cartiges in my old printer. HP 1210 all in one. Scanner/Coppier/Printer. Dual Cartrige 4800DPI on printing at 10 pages per minute in color. SWWWEEEEEETTTTTT.... and it came with both black and color cartriges. I just printed out some stuff on plain old borring paper and the color is amazing. Just about to print a picture on photo paper and see how that looks.
OK Figured out who Nicole is........ The voice sounded familiar and it wasn't Nicole. It just sounded like it..... Wheewwwwwwwwwwwwww I was wondering where I had been for a while. And obviously whoever Nicole was couldn't have been very good if I cant remember her. he he he....
Ok who is Nicole???? and how does she know its my birthday? I had a message at work from an outside number from someone named Nicole to wish me a happy B-Day and I dont know who she is. Only thing I can think of is the girl who cleans my teeth......... Remember the really cute one. But she didn't say from the dentists office and they are closed on Fridays and probably the rest of this week.... Hmmm. Just that it was Nicole and she was calling to wish me a happy B-day and she was going to try my cell.
I must be getting old if I dont remember who she is or Someone out there must be messing with my head 'cause I dont give my cell number out to many people.
Its the end of the year as we know it, and I feel Hmmmmmmm. Ok maybe thats not the words but my nose holes are working again but I can still feel the friggin cold, and sound like Barry White.
Oh yeah and I have to go shovel about 17 million tonnes of snow off the driveway from last night.
OK CHBC news blows goats...... Major earthquake with people dead and whats the CHBC top story? There are some horses on native land that are are not being looked after. Hmmmm People dead, buildings destroyed or horses Good choice for top story.
I got my car back. MMMMMMmmmmm opened the car door and could smell the leather. :) Haven't done any mileage yet but I didn't hear the whistling noise I heard before but first gear sounds like a VW in reverse now. Hopefully that will go away as it breaks in a little. And the cruze makes a clicking noise now when it disengages. It might be normal and I'm listening to the sound more now than before but I never noticed it happen with the old tranny.
A couple things
First off check it out.... since there shutting down Kazza or suing everyone who uses it. BOOMBox Reminds me of taping music off the radio long long ago. You can list all the radio stations and record the music they are streaming. Make sure you pick a fairly decent quality stream 128KBPS or it will sound like your recording AM Radio on an 8 track.
Also the Acura is in the shop for the Tranny. :( Ok I'm spoiled now..... I've only had to drive the loaner maybe 5 K's home from the shop and then hid it in the garage so no one would know I'mf driving a Civic. I already want my TL back. The 1.7 EL with and automic must be a womans car cause its got no balls.... Hmmmm wait a sec it has a bra on it to.... Coincidence I think not. Ok its not that bad, considering the price and I'm sure a standard would be a bit better for performance. But I'm spoiled. I want my sport shift, my seat heaters, my sun roof, My stereo, My leather, my winter tires, my climate control, and of course my balls, The sound of an engine that didnt come from a sowing machine, My car that I love being seen in. This of course means that I have now realised I can never go backwards to a entry level car again. I lost my entry level car virinity and I liked it.
I prefer my MG to the almost new EL. But then again you cant knock that $#!t eating MG driving grin off my face with a baseball bat and a chain saw. Even after 8 years of diving one, I still enjoy every day I drive it. Theres just something about driving around topless in a car that is basically customized to what I want but still overall stock. And of course the heads turning as you drive by with that ball rattleing rumble from the exhaust that makes it sound like its got more balls that it really does. By the way even my MG has more balls than the automic EL. Hang on gotta check the calendar.... Only 122 more days and I can put it back on the road. April 14th. Great now I'm depressed I have to wait for that long before I can go for a drive in it. I guess I'll just go sit in it and make vroom vroom noises instead.
Oh yeah and dont drink and make vroom vroom noises (Real or Fake) or I will have to some and beat you with the baseball bat and chain saw I took from the guy who tried to get that MG grin off my face. That reminds me I need to go and design the Tatoo I'm gonna get. (Watch my mother freak when she reads that) I figured a Union Jack on one side and the Welsh Dragon on the other with a gold MG logo in the center of it across my back or maybe tatooed onto the back of my scalp.
Ok what the heck do you want for Xmas.............. If you dont email it to me your getting a bag of cat poop. email me at xmas email
According to the Nov issue of Thoroughbred & Classic Cars.. the 1962-80 MGB is the number 2 classic car in the UK.
Bloody snow tires and front wheel drive. Tried to slide the car this morning to see what it would to slide it...... The friggin thing wouldn't slide. Either the roads are not slick enough yet or its the friggin tires.... But from hearing everyone complain how slick there road was this morning and watching a Chrysler 300 slide up to glenmore with all 4 locked (some ABS) I dont think the roads are the reason I cant slide it. I guess I need to relocate the park brake to a hand control if I'm going to slide it.
Friggin Snow.
Whats up with this wet white garbage everywhere. The one large round cedar on the botom of the yard was spread out like a buterfly because of the weight of the snow on the top of it and the ones at the back of the yard were weighed down a little but there not as wide across as the botom one so not as much surface area on the top to collect snow. I shook the snow of the worst one but it was still a little droopy so hopefully the rest of the snow melts and it straightens up. At least I wasnt the only one with cedars that looked like that. The globes in the neighbors yard were almost on the ground with the weight of snow.
Hay cool Just figured out that as soon as you take your foot off the break at a stop light and the wipers are on delay they wipe. Kinda cool I stop delay is normal and then as soon as I take my foot off the break to go forward the wipers wipe the windhsield for me so I can see when I go.
MMMMMMmmmmmm New leather chair. Stopped in to ofice depot this afternoon to look at cheap desks to put the server on in the basement and ended up buying a new leather chair instead. My old one was a bit warn so I had to keep treating and lubing it cause of the squeeking. They were clearing out a bunch of chairs and this one was 75% off so I had to buy it. It was interesting getting the chair in the car but reclined the front seat and put it all the way back and it fit upside down on the pass. seat. Had to leave the window open with the one leg sticking out the window but it was to big to fit in the trunk without taking it all apart first.
Friggin computers........ Got it fingered out though..... the web hosting admin site was painfully slow about 50 seconds to load one page and it was bugging the hell out of me cause from work it was quick, from the server it was quick, and even when I installed netscape on this PC that was even quick. But IE on this computer just doesn't like that site for some reason. I uninstalled and reinstalled still same problem.... So I did it again and it didn't work the second time either. Anyhow it appears I had a corupt file in the cache which was causing the problem. I destroyed the entire cache and then opened up the web site and the performance was back to normal..................
Friggin computers... I've probably spent 5 hours on this thing on and off trying to figure out what the heck was wrong with it. Still not as twisted the problem where a printer attached to one computer caused Office to quit working on a different PC. That one was screwy, at least this one makes sence.
Hmmm Need to figure out what to do with a couple 4 inch goldfish. I decided they were coming out of the main tank cause they were scarring the living fish poop out of the guppies. When the 11 of them combined aren't as big as one of the gold fish they kinda try to hide in the corner behind the heater and uptake pipes. Took out the golds and they are living in a pail right now but will be transfered to a 10 gallon for the rest of the winter when the water temperature normalizes and the chlorine disipates. They have have it good for a couple years but they are outgrowing the tank so they need a new home. Now the Guppies are happier and swimming around and pooping normally instead of having is scared out of them. :) The shark doesn't seem to bother them so he can stay. He is fine with fish that are smaller than him but anything bigger than him and he gets defensive and chases them around. (hes got little shark syndrome)
Holly crap its cold out there. There is a couple inch's of ice on the pond. I just went and pulled the pump out. Its only November Last year I took it out late January. Whats up with that??????? Did I move back to Alberta and forget about the move?
Hmmmmm not overly impressed with the speed 1and1.com provides on the webhosting. There admin setup is pretty sweet but it needs more upstream bandwith to use for anything major. If it wasn't free I would ask for my money back.
Got some more fishies. 11 more grown guppies in the tank (7 male, 4 female) I know the mix is bad, but the price was right so really it doesn't matter. It looks like one or two of the Females are pregy already so I think I'm going to need to set up another tank if there is going to be any chance of the youngens surviving. They are all hiding in the corner right now because they came from a tank with only small fish so I'm sure my big fatty goldfish and the shark are freaking the hell out of them.
Hmmmm Just put gas in the car and mileage is back up at 24 in this tank. Need to check the tire pressures too cause its still a little low from what it was running at before. Either that or I'm just a little heavier on the go button.
The new web server is up and running. Need to build the sql database on there and redo some of the scripts to run on a sql DB instead of Access. Anyhow the transition site address will be http://mark.servebeer.com
Woooohooo just found some cool new stuff for the computer. Its a theme pack for Win 9x not 2K but you can make it work. I have the promo add from the '75 MG as my wallpaper anc some MG Icons for my computer, My network, and Recycle bin. And best of all MG sounds attached to events. now when I get an email I hear an engine rev, and sounds like the doors closing. Just need the zipper sound and I'm set. Get your mind out of the gutter I'm talking about unzipping the top to get into it.
he he he he he...... just watched american chopper and the old guy reminds me of the old fart.... Looking around for tools and flying off the deep end cause he cant find them but they were in front of him all along....... Know anyone like that DAD???????????? That and the putting the tools away while your in the middle of using them and then not knowing where he left them. Reminded me of working at the warehouse.
Hmmmmmmm Maybe the City or the Developer will be shelling out a couple hundred dollars to replace the cedars in my yard after cutting the roots. About 1/3 to 1/2 the green has turned brown. They aren't dead yet so there may still be hope. I just cleaned out abunch of the dead leaves so air and daylight can get in there and sprout new green in the spring. The one on the side has a little browning but no were near as bad as the ones on the fence so if they die someone else is going to die along with them.
Holly crap batman.............. I put the K&N in the car about 1/2 way through a tank of gas.... Well I filled up on Monday and just did the math on the mileage just now. Put in $38 to fill the tank after driving 380 KM on the tank. Ok maybe I didn't force feed the tank (the pump stopped on $38 almost like I planned it that way) Anyhow The mileage. When I first got it I was getting 24-25 MPG aroung town. Fire came around and that went down to 21 to 22 MPG. Replaced the Air filter 2 weeks ago with the K&N. Back up to 25 MPG now and I only had the new filter for 1/2 the tank. I suspect it will be around 27 MPG under normal use and a full tank.
(just not the one I just put in. I've een enjoying the power from the K&N a little to much to see much fuel economy gains.)
Hmmmmmm The new TL has voice activiated stuff.... Anyone else think this sounds alot like Night Rider from the 80's?
Yeah sure Sarah..... I always signal and dip the high beams when Im going to accidentally drive off the road. Sometimes you just have to stop on the side of the road to take a picture..... It is halloween afterall and sometimes you need a picture of a full moon or as full as you can find.
Ok I just put the baby to bed..... Washer her engine, inside, outside and bottom gave her a new coat of wax, treated her leather and put her away in the corner with the blanket on and disconnected her battery. Its official shes in bed for a few months now. Guess I shoud order that new fuel tank and get a new jack and a couple more jack stands.
Ok the webcam is no longer linked to refresh by whoever wants to. The webcam is running off the new speed machine so I need to change the programming to make the refresh happen. So its gone for now.
I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!!!! EHHH!!!!
This is hard to belive but the temperature of the CPU is now lower than the temperature of the air in the case. And the air flow is so good in the case that the temperature actually increases when you open it as the air flow over the processor is disrupted. Right now the case temp is at 33 but the CPU is at 30. Thats right the Case is heating up the CPU now rather than the other way I expect the case temp is so high because of the heat from the hard drive. Gonna have to get a hard drive fan I think to get the air from the hard drive out of there. All this from only adding 1 p2 mm exhaust fan and opening up the front. Oh yeah I also reorganized all the wiring in the case in order to not disturb the air that is flowing through from front to back.
Ok yes so I'm cheating and running CPU Cool. I found out how this acutally works. I didn't know so I assumed that it changed the CPU Fan Speed to increase air from but watching the fan rotations they dont really fluctuate based on when I turn the cooling on or off. Anyhow the software basically puts unused CPU power to sleep by closing the I/O for them. As a result they are not drawing any resources and not generating any heat. Very cool...... In more ways than one. As an extra bonus as the cycles are not generating heat they are not using power and operating costs are lower. According to the web site that is. That means it might cost $.50 a year less to run the box with the software. High intesity processing does use up more of the processin power though and the Temp climbs back up but its still well within the safe range, and I haven't even applied the new thermal paste yet.
Ok just cause I haven't posted in a while. Looks like I have some of the heat issues a little more under control.
Put an oversize exhaust fan on the back on the box and opened up the front. I am going to put a intake fan there so a I will rig something up to fit in the opening... anhow right now the Processor is at 34 C not really under load, but when Under load I was seeing a steady 54 C with the case closed and the stock thermal paste that was salvaged from the mess that they guys that made the computer made. I will replace that past soon and that should help too. 54 C under load with the ocationsl jump to 56 is well within the limits of the processor though so I can live with that. But I wont. :) Thats why I'm putting another fan on the front and better thermal paste on the heat sink. I may even cut a hole in the side of the box and put another intake fan there that will blow direclty on the processor.
Oh well gotta go sort out the cat box and the garbage for tomorrow. Oh yeah and send a cheque to the sprinkler guy for the blow out.
Ohhhhhh yeahhhhh she screams......... Took 10 minutes to compile a 200 meg 20 minute video clip.. The 3 minute one I did on the other computer took 25 minutes. Major improvement. Ohhh yeah Just remembered I have to take the receipt into work tomorrow so I can get my money back for it. :)
Woooohooooo the new computer is a screamer. Only took minutes to install windows and office instead of hours ok maybe it was only an hour before. Took me longer to get the network working properly because of a faulty patch cord. AAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGG Spend about an hour trying to figure out why the firewall wasnt getting an address when I didn't change anything on the firewall but pug the new machine into it. The patch cord was a litle tempermental.
Ok got my new K&N for the Acura. And the pushy sales person that sold it to me persuaded me to buy a recharge kit for them too. I say them cause the MG has them too. Some people's children. Oh well I was expecting it to be quite a bit more that it was so even with the recharge kit I spent less than I was expecting to. :) Got more power now too. :) Tires could get expensive if it wasn't for traction control. I have to be a little more gentle on the gas than I was before the filter so there must have been some significant restriction in air flow with the stock filter compared to this one.
Hopefully gas mileage will return to the mid 20's or so (what it was before the fire) or maybe even better now that its replaced. So long as I keep my big right foot off the floor.
Not sure how much of a difference there would be between the K&N vs a new Paper filter though.
The new MG
The Cheques in the mail..... Fired off the cheque for this weeks toy purchase today. Should make things a whole lot faster. Well for me anyhow. a shiney new computer with a AMD XP 2500 Barton processer and another 80 gigs of space. 208 gigs total now. That should be enough to get me throught the winter. The old computer will become my server for all the security and server crap that I currently am running off this one. Saving all the 1.9 GHZ for my personal processing power. Think how fast I will be able to surf the web and listen to tunez now........ Hmmmmmm actually if thats all I did I wouldn't need the new computer but now I'm messing around with some more heavy graphics and resource intense processes like making movies. Seeing that it was going to take about 10 hours to compile a 60 minute video with the 5 year old computer I have right now........ it was time for a change.
Ok who owns the Purple VW Convertable that I had the drive by relationship with this afternoon? I pulled on to High road coming home and someone in a purple Rabit convertable honked and was waving at me. So I waved back. I thought it was someone I used to work with at WST but then when I got up to turn on Glenmore she slowly pulled up beside me bit was going straight through so didn't stop to give me a good look. I realized it wasn't who I thought it was (she was cute instead), So I waved back again. Didn’t get a good look thought so it may be someone I know
I hate that when you dont recognize the person waving and dont recognize the car. I've had at least a half a dozen of these drive by relationships since I put the MG on the road this year. I better check to see if someone put a "I'm rich, honk if your single" bumper sticker on my MG when I wasn't looking.
MMmmmmmmmmmm Fresh home made cookies.......... And the best part is I didnt make them. Got home and the the Neighbor came over with a bag off cookies fresh out of the oven for letting them borrow my pressure washer to wash the house.
Only problem is.......... I'm gonna eat them all right now.
Oh no I've come to the end of the internet. The End Is here .com
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh Its still leaking.................
Ok now hopefully the new and actually somewhat useful gasket will fix the oil gusher in the MG. If it doesn't I'm gonna use duck tape no not duct, duck... I prefer the duck tape cause its got webed feet.
He he he he he....... Too funny. Came home and pulled the MG in the garage. As I was getting my stuff together and getting out I heard this kid riding by saying "Where I dont see a convertable" and another one saying "It turned up here." I guess they saw me drive by and followed me home. Eventually they spotted me getting out of the car in the garage and stopped at then end of the drive way to look at it and ask what kind of car it was. Little do they know that its as old as the 3 of them combined. Ahhhhhh good to see the car can attract enough attention to have 3 kids on a bike try to follow you home. Wait a sec....... Wheres the closest all girls College?
Cheeze.......... Its only been 3 days since I posted whats the big deal.
I'm going back to building my movie again. No its not that type of movie get your mind out of the gutter you freaks. Ahh forget it I've got better things to do than that.
OK I haven't had anything to post for a while so here is a post. Happy now.
I think I should put the thermostat back in the MG. Its to cold in the morning now so it doesn't warm up at all on the way to work. Then again its raining anyhow so I really doesn't matter right now.
Hay freaks of the world. I guess its October 10 th I have to go to the citizenship thing and get my official right to say ehhhhh....
I think one of those water tankers just dumped its load on my house. Holllly crap batman is it ever raining out there. I haven't heard it like that for months.
Hay freaks. That is all.
Woooohooooo
MG ZT-T TOPS 225 MPH AT BONNEVILLE SPEED WEEK
... MG IN LINE FOR A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD
MG Rover Group has applied to the Guinness World Records for the World's Fastest Estate car / Station Wagon record. The MG ZT-T, codenamed X-15, reached a top speed of 225.609 mph (360.9 km/h) at the August 2003, 55th annual Bonneville Speed Week Nationals, on the Salt Flats in Utah, USA.
This cat caught the neighbors dog in the back yard making a deposit on the grass.
AAAAAHHHHHHH its raining. :) wooooohooooooooooo
ok its finally out and available for DL. Go and get bugnosis. Its software that checks pages when they are downloading for known spy cookies. go here to get it.
Once you have it downloaded and installed go to www.wired.com and you will see an example of the crap that people are putting on sites to track you.
Only four wooden trestles remain 1, 12, 16, 17.
And they say your not supposed to eat in the middle of the road. What do they know anyhow.
Oh yeah and it even came with a toy for George.
Hollllllllyyyyyyyyyy Crapppppppppp. The speakers are tiny and do they ever boom. Decided to pick up a new set of speakers for the computer. The Altec Lansing ATP3's I was looking at a few months ago at $130 went on sale for $60 after rebate so decided to go and get them. Like I said Hollllllllyyyyyyyyyy Crapppppppppp. Only 30 watts output but its clean output. Four 1/2 inch tweeters, 2 3 inch mids, and a sub box that thumps as well as my home theater sub box. Haven't been able to fully crank the volume yet cause my ears started to blead but there was no distortion and sounded great throughout the full range. Hmmmmmm wonder how these would work attached to my house stereo.
Go buy some......... Well what are you waiting for go here if you dont want to go shopping for them. My house speakers cost a whole hell of alot more than this and these sound just as good.
Well less water for me once again. Now down to one day a week watering. AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH. Gonna have a lot of dead plants and cedars.
5 KVR trestles have been destroyed. Oh man that royaly sucks the big wooden bridge.
Yeah right that was supposed to be an exam. I thought I must have missed half the test. They give you 30 minutes for 20 Multiple choice questions. Well after 3 minutes I was looking for more pages and more questions cause I ran out. So I decided to re read and make sure I had them all correct. Yup.... Ok 7 minutes are gone now and people are still writing. Oh well I've read the the test twice so I'm leaving. No phone calls yet to say I failed so I must have passed.
The next ceremony is October 10th at North Glenmore Elementry. Nice and close to home. I guess I better dust of the old ties again.
Friggin fire..... "Two trestles on the Kettle Valley Railway were lost, an additional two were damaged."
Well tomorrow may be then end of Mark the non Canadian. I'm taking my citizenship exam tomorrow afternoon.
Wooooohooooooo Interest rates are dropping once again. Bank prime is now down to 4.5% Almost like free money.
ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHH frigin lucas electrics. Park lights work better when they are connected to the switch. I guess it heard me when I said I hope I have lights to drive home on and decided to teach me a lesson. After sitting upside down in the drivers seat for a couple minutes with my legs above the seats (the standard underdash repair position) found the wire and got it hooked up only to find out that I still dont have park lights. At least I have dash light now so its off to the fuses to clean up the contacts. What are the chances that the fuses for both right and left circuts are gone. pretty friggin slim thats for sure so put out the fuses and clean up the contacts and let there be light...... and there was light. It was a great ride home though with open road and a concrete divided on the side of me. :)
Unfortunatly when I got home I found out the frigggin cat got into some bad cat nip when I was away and left me some nice presents in every room but this one. So out comes the carpet cleaner to clean up the five puddles on the carpet. ARRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH.
Ok for those of you who may have noticed that I didn't have and 's on my posts it is now fixed. When I updated to a database I didn't know how to put the 's into messages without the insert failing. Well now I know how so they will be added from now on.
By the way it rained here a couple times today. :)
Only in Canada ehhh!!!! Where else but Canada would all the evacuees be kicked out of a hockey arena so we can make ice so training and preseason can start. Everyone out we need to start making ice. Ok yes I realize they didnt need it any longer but the timing couldnt be better. Let get the fire to go up towards big white instead. Ski season doesnt start for a while anyhow.
Ok you sorry excuses for humans. I cant believe how friggin sick and twisted you are to lift your knuckles up off the floor and break into someones car who just loaded everything they could out of there house which was likely on fire. I hope you feel really proud of yourself. Its not bad enough to loot someones house cause the owners probably took the valuable stuff with them......... No take the only things they could save from a house they may not have anymore. But Im sure you wont see this anyhow afterall you probably cant ever read and communicate with grunts. Mind you Im sure your IQ isnt that much lower than the idiots parked on the side of dilworth on the no parking bike lanes and have way into the road. Those of you who arent smoking on the side of the road in the grass are wandering aimlessly in in front of traffic. Because of your stupidity there is just enought room left on the road to get 2 cars side by side so they are only moving 5 MPH through there or we would have body parts all ofer the place. I guess you dont have to worry about brain damage though do you. Afterall if you had a brain you wouldnt be parked where you are to begin with or walking down the road like it was your living room. If you insist on watching from there go park in a parking lot and get off your poop pusher and walk up there. And leave your smokes in the car.
For those who missed me Im back online again. Thank god we finally got some kinda rain coming down. Not much so far but its a whole hellava lot better than nothing. Driving down benvolil earlier there was nuttin but flames coming from east Kelowna. Coming back, there was bairly a glow so thats got to be good news. It not out by any means though cause I can see it from my house again.
I was wondering if it would happen and sure enough Friggin Looters in the area. They should be tied to a burning tree and left there.
There was 3 inch chunks of burned bark on my driveway this morning. I sure hope they were not still live when they landed with all the trees behind me. I heard they had people patrolling in Glenmore last night to watch for hot spots where embers my have landed to ensure there were no more fires. Afterall if they were anything like me they couldnt sleep anyhow because of all the smoke. What a relief when I got up this morning and I could actually see across the street. I can breath again.
I have a plan to get rid of this bloody smoke. Everyone eat at least 1 can of beans. Go outside get on your hands and knees and point your exit door to the South......... Then let er rip. If everyone does this we should build up enough of a draft to blow this smoke out. Of course we may damage the ozone layer with the toxic gasses that will be released but it cant be any worse than the junk were breathing in now. Be carefull if your to close to the fire though. We dont want any more combustion happening.
If you insist you can substitue the beans with your favourite gas producing food source.
Im dreaming of a white August....... Its snowing in North Glenmore. Ok well maybe theres no moisture content in what is coming down but I think a snow brush might be required to get all the crap off the car. Its not even just ash. There are some pretty substantial twigs falling from the sky. I wonder when the first bag of fire ash will be put on on E-bay. Why not they sell everything else.
Good thing tomorrow is pay day cause I have to put gas in both cars. Just did the Acura at 97 cents a liter. At that price it should make the car drive itself.
Hmmmm Maybe good news maybe not. I cant see any fire tonight but that may just be because the smoke is so thick.
And its bigger again......... The fire has pretty much taken over the entire park now about 100 sqr KMs in size. For those who have no idea how much that is. Lets just say its a whole heck of a lot. The links I have below one of them no longer works but go to The Castanet Website for the most current info/stats/links to pics and everything. Hopefully we will still have power as the fire is threatening a major power line. (how do you do that anyhow walk up to it with a wire and tell it your going to short it out if it doesnt co-operate.)
Dishwasher works again...... I guess the solenoid and the piston are supposed to be 2 seporate parts and not fused together like mine was.
Hollllly Crap............. I can see the fire from way the hell out in north Glenmore. FInished taking the dishwasher apart to find out whats wrong with it (its a solonoid went Kaput by the looks of it so the pump was pumping down the drain instead of washing the dishes. Then flicked off the light in the kitchen and there was a red glow outside. Tried to take a pic but its to dark so I need to be able to adjust the exposure more than I can to get a good one. Ohh well.
Hmmmmmm looks like I blew a seal....... That sounds bad. a rubber seal in the dish washer blew out and who knows where the rest of it is but I found a rock in there that was very clean. what was left of the seal was extreamly dried out. When I plug up the hole with my finger all works againg but I can get in there and hold the hole while the dishwasher is running so Ill rig something up to seal it off and hopefully that will fix it.
Hmmmm so this is why the stock price is going up.
Globe & Mail Article
Friggin Dish washer is ready to pack it in now. AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH First the Dryer now this. Dishes dont clean to well without any water. I have a feeling the drain is stuck open so its not filling with water to clean. Oh well take it all apart again tonight.
BC is on Fire still. Tonnes of great pictures out there to look at so you dont have to be one one the boneheads that are parked on the highway blocking traffic and throwing there cigarette buts on the dried out grass to start yet another fire. Just look at the pictures if you must look at it you bone heads. Anyhow heres some links that I have found.
Links removed as no longer active.
Next time you go through a drive through, place your order by pointing to the food you want rather than actually telling them. I figured they screw up the order when you tell them they cant do any worse when you just point.
Thats It Ive had enough of having the Net cables come out cause they have been unhooked and rehooked up some many times the hinge has broken. So I went and got the tools to put the ends on the cables. So now I can build my own net cables to the length I need rather than the precut lengths. Hmmmmmm I could get some cat5 cable and run it through the entire house now. Yeah right not bloody likely. When I build the office I will run the network upstairs and down while I can get to it but right now I really dont need to.
I hate friggin racoons. The distructive little bugger came back last night and hit his fishing hole again. Took about 7 fish destroyed all the leaves on both water lillies and knocked the one over completely. At leat this time he didnt uproot the plants too.
Oh yeah apparently the worm (virus) that is out there and is set to hammer the mircrosoft web site isn't really that big of a problem for Microsoft. Here is the info on it. to quote the artical "Not all infected computers will attack, only those that are restarted either automatically or manually". Wait a second, how the heck else to your restart a computer but manually or automatically. I've never seen any other way. Think about what you said Mr. Researh Director. I bet the lights only come on if you have the swith turned on and the tires on your car are flat but only on the bottom or maybe your wife is just a little bit pregnant and your turn signals work intermittently.
OK rant over.
AAAAARRRGGGHHHHHHhh friggin computers. After screwing around in Linux for a bit I could no longer get on to the net. Figuring I did something wrong (After all I was playing around not just using it) I spent about 2 hours playing around with settings trying to get the network back up and running. I finally gave up and hooked up the laptop so I could have a look at the firewall to see what the heck the problem was. Guess what that didn't work either. Hmmmm Maybe try the turn off and back on for the firewall and the modem. Guess what it works again with the settings I had changed things to. Friggin modem issues took 2 hours of playing around to make it work when all it should have taken was turn it off and back on again. Oh well at least I got about 1/2 the linux updates done tonight. I'll do the rest some other time but figured I'd fire the web server back up for tonight.
Wooooohooooooooooooo Its raining......... Hay wait a sec, I drive a convertable, I thought I'd never be glad to see rain. Oh well its been to friggin hot to drive it and enjoy it anyhow. Unfortunatly theres more lightning coming from the sky than rain.
Ok who phoned me before 8 this morning?
Its actually raining...... I left the sun roof open so of course it was going to rain.
It rained.......It rained.......It rained.......It rained....... It rained....... OK so I said it rained once for each drop that was on the window but it was rain. Even though it was only 5 whole rain drops I'm sure that it was enough to at least scare a fire the size of a candle flame.
By the way dont open any emails from admin@shaw.ca... or from a listsrv that may have come in today. I phoned to rip someone a new one for putting my name on a list without my request and they told me to delete it and they didn't know where they were coming from yet and said dont open any from admin@shaw.ca after asking if I was running virus software. Anyhow some useless information gotsta run I think its time to watch girls jumping on trampolines. (ok so I spelt it wrong you get the picture).
Never did make it up to see what the fire truck was going up to but on the radio they said a construction trailer was on fire. Also said it was suspicious so sounds like there is some idiot out there that thought it would be a good idea to start a building on fire that is in the middle of tinder dry bush when there is hundreds of fires allready burning across the province. DUUUUHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! Not to bright are we. Good thing they put it out or I could be evacuated now.
Ok freaks of the world. HHHHHHmmmmmmm I wonder if its a good thing to have a tanker fire truck with lights flashing drives by the back of your house 3 times in each dircection going between the fire hydrant and a crap load of trees. At least theres a road up there now so they can get the tanker in there if there was a fire.
Ok it must be the end of the world no. Everything is on fire and communications are crapola. Dead cell phones, No internet for at least 24 hours. Hmmmmmm something. Maybe I should build an arc or something and start gathering 2 of ever animal. Then again I dont think noah had anything to do with the end of the world but what do I know I can barely spell bible.
For those who doubted that that was really the cat that was on the computer I have proof. I caught him in the act checking his hotmail account.
Finally got off my but and had a look at the pictures from the switch installation for the electric fan. Check it out but dont look at the dust in the pic. I havent detailed it in a while and the lot across the street from work is having a soil change so lots of dust.
Look out Edmonton you have a heat wave coming. all the way into the high 20's and maybe even 30 by the end of the week.......... Oh yeah and dont forget the snow next week. High 30's may be friggin hot but I have AC and a convertable that will give people whiplash what more could I want. With only 100 HP the only way the drive or passengers will get the whiplash is by driving by the beach.
Now I'm mad........ Some goofball copycat in town painted a Rubber bumper MG the same color as mine. Someone I know saw it on Friday and thought it was mine and then when someone else got in it he was wondering WTF was going on. Apparently a very slight difference in color to mine but pretty much the same. I bet he doesn't have leather seats and a beefed up engine though.
Found the perfect switch. It fits right in the existing hole that is used for the light switch on later models in the steering column so the fit and finish looks perfect. So I finished wiring the fan this afternoon so now I can turn it on/off without having to pop the hood. Wooohooooo this should make life easier and a little more cool.
Friggin heat. Decided to attempt to turn off the heater to see if it was still puking out coolant now that the seels are no longer dry. Well Guess what.......... It does. I got into town and parked it for a couple minutes while I ran into the store and when I came back out there was a warm coolant lake under it. Popped the hood and opened up the heater control again to stop the leak. Of course the heater control valve is just above the distributor so there was a little complaining when I started her. I'm assuming it was coolant and not slobber from the people that were drooling around it.
Well I am now missing 1/2 the coolant so she ran a lot warm going home. I figured that while the level is down I might as well put the thermostat back in so it warms up quicker in the mornings. Big mistake either there isn't enough flow through it or its defective. Went down to the gas station with the thermostat in and the temp climbed up like it was on an elevator even with the electric fan and the water pump fan running. Ok drain some coolant one more time and take the thermostat back out. Now climbing up Dilworth, sitting in traffic or parking lot at the beer store with the outside temp in the High 30's the temp was just slightly above the N. I will live with the long time for it to warm up in the mornings if the alternative is overheating when its warm out.
Picked up the relay while I was in town so I can wire the fan in. Still haven't got a swith for it so I will wire it to be on all the time until I can find the right switch and if I need to turn it off I will pop the hood and pull the fuse for now.
Ok have to put the thermostat back in the car. Drove all the way to work and didn't even get close to reaching N. Got about 1/2 way there but that is it. I should get a new heater control valve also so I can close off the heater now as I really dont need to have it open to help with cooling any more.
I just reinstalled my rad after a more efficient core was put in. I dont know all the techno stuff behind it but the what they told me in english is the volume flowing through is greater and it has little dimples through all the fins to slow the coolent down in its travels through the mystical rad to so it is better cooled. With the new rad I am now seeing just on the high end of the N when in mild traffic instead of the 1/2 to the H I was seeing in this weather. This is also with part of the rad blocked by the fan motor for the electric fan that was not there before.
With the new core I can watch the needle move downwards as soon as you start moving and air starts flowing through the rad again. (Of course its out of the corner of my eye I'm seeing this I dont drive by the guages only.) I will wire the aux fan this weekend for those days stuck in traffic just in case. (After all its already on the visa card and been modified to fit, might as well use it)
Dont have the Rad back yet and I decided that I'm not going to bother with building the cardboard splash shield. I figued I probably dont really need it with the new rad and fan. That and it will get in the way when the oil gusher is fixed and probably have to be ripped out anyhow. guess I better go do some reading of that look at canada book as I havent picked it up in months and have to write the test in a couple weeks.
Well I broke down and did what I didn't want to do and got and electric aux. fan for 'the B'. $130 lighter and after modifiying everything to get it to fit the rad correctly and lined up for the nylon mounting rods I looked that the rad wrong and it went pop. I didn't want to put one of the through the rad fans on to begin with but it was pretty much my last resort at this point. Well Might as well just recore the rad rather than getting it patched a 3rd time and have to remove it again in a year to fix another leak.
Hopefully the new core will solve the heat problems, but as I have already bought and modified the electric fan to fit I might as well add that to the rad in the process so its there incase its needed. Can never have to much cooling around here expecially now that the engine is probably pushing close to double the HP than it had when new. (Sounds impressive but when the base is that low to begin with its not that big of an increase) Hopefully the Rad shop can put in collers of some type for the mounting rods to go through in order to reduce the chance that the rods go through the new core. I've heard of to many leaks caused by those rods which was why I was reluctant to get one in the first place. Oh well I guess the Rad needed to be replaced anyhow or it wouldn't have sprung a leak by me just thinking about pushing the rod through.
Hay with the rad out it should be easier to build a more complete splash shield. Will have to look into building and painting that tomorrow night before reinstalling the rad if they get to it tomorrow. If not........ Oh well I'll rough it in the acura for another day.
There goes the money I didn't have to spend on getting the dryer fixed. (and a few hundred more) Dohhhhhhh!!!!!!
OH yeah and the new oil pan gasket should be here Friday not Thursday. I think Sarah said it had to come from Edmonchuck.
I was right.... I locked out the transmitters. Unlocked them and it all works again now. Who puts these security features on anyhow. They should know I will forget they are there and cause myself frustration figuring its broken somehow.
I just though of something I bet I hit the lock out button on the Garage door opener this morning when I went into the garage. All the Symptoms are there. Transmitters dont work and have to hold the button down to close the door.
I hope its something that simple.
ARRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH Friggin Garage door opener has given up for some reason. Cant close or open the door using the remote any more. I'm putting the blame on the MG for this one. I think it is mad at me for not bringing it out in the sun so it booby trapped the door on me.
Ok thats enough of the fry an egg on my forehead weather. My car doesn't like it at all. Gonna have to take the Acura.... Hmmmm notice what the first 2 letters of that word is. AC. :) Dont want to destroy the engine on the MG with heat so its back to the stand by until the weather cools down a bit. Even with the thermostat out and some ducting done to direct the air flow better its still running warm.
Look out Canada, My application has been accepted and I have to write the test to become an official Canadian. Assuming I pass of course. I guess I better study for the urine test and learn how to speek engrish.
Woohoo thats better. The hampster had a hot poker stuck up his back side this morning and is running a lot better. There is power again woohoo. Yes its still only MGB power but its much better than it was a couple hours ago. and way way way better than stock. The tire chirp going into second gear surprised the hell out of me. I'ts never done that before even on the old sun baked and harddend 15 year old tires that were on it before. Just have to fix the oil gusher coming from the oil pan and do something about the temprature and I will be set. Hmmmmmmm looks like the next step is a 10 inch electric pusher fan to accompany the stock air disrupter attched to the water pump. Some people call this a fan but fans usually result in some kind of direction to the air flow.
Slight format chage to the website. Decided to put the links up higher on the page so there is no need to go all the way down to the bottom of my ramblings to get to them. I also shortened the number of lines that are on the main page so you can only read the last 100 lines of text that I typed.
I also put my webcam picture higher on the page so sexy women with huge tracks of land can drool over it.

Ok someone didn't do there job in the chlorine department again. Who Was it????? It was you wasn't it!!!!!! If you know who it was email me at I know who did it.
Just want to say thanks to the moron who decided to turn in front of me while coming down Leckie. Thanks for the flat spots on the tires in the MG you twit. I dont even have enough power in the car to burn off some rubber and get rid of the corner so it was like driving home in with bricks for tires. They felt like this 
. Ok well maybe its not that bad but this makes a better story, and I get to use my lumpy MG smilly face this way. 
But the good news is the breaks work and my tires smell like tires when they are burned into the ashfault.
Bloody cat got to the computer when I wasn't looking again. At least this time he wasn't downloading kitty porn again. He has a fetish for those with lots of hair.

hay cool check out the new and improved octagon Smilly
Control the moron population have your idiot spayed or Neutered. On second thought just have them shot.
AAAARRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I hate people who dont know how to drive. Friggin morons should all be taken out back and shot. And there all out there today I swear. I ran into 4 of them today. One of the buggers forced me off the road and screwed up the lower trim piece on the front of the Acura. Good thing I replaced it when I first got the car (a whole 2000 KM's ago). I now see how the other one probably got screwed up. Well I guess its better than the damage that would have been caused if I didn't move over. I really dont want to test the airbags at all especially not head on with a truck.
The pass side wheel went into a bit of a pot hole and the botom of the bumper hit a bit of gravel hill and screwed it up in the process. Just more proof that were out of chlorine.
If anyone has any left over chlorine from an old pool or anything please donate it to the gene pool.
Hay. I have a whole Truck load of pics from the RITV to put up but still havent had time. Due the the number of them I am going to have to resize them to a more web friendly size before I post them. But not right now. Must go outside and play.
Wooohooooo To celebrate the bikini's birthday I'm on holidays on Monday and Tuesday. Bring on the dancing girls in bikini's.
Happy Birthday to the Bikini. The next best thing to nothing at all. 57 years old today.
Check out the new links format at the botom of the page. Next step is the user added links section for addition whenever I feel like it. Ok I'm easily ammused you'd almost think I want to learn more about Web development or something.
