Just watched episode 1 season 1 of reservation dogs and this gem was playing in the background:

Note: not this version but I’m too lazy to look for the original.

Harry I believe you nailed it. Zero in a little more and maybe you could find the damn things!

Did exactly the same thing 30 years ago while at a conference in La Jolla in March. I went for a walk on the beach it was nice and it looked like the waves would make for some nice body surfing. ...

Bought a ryobi 40v mower on sale and with a coupon at HD for about $300. Without the discounts I would have gone Ego. The Ryobi mower needs to two charges (45 minute sessions) to do the 1/2 acre...

I’ll check out the AGM I haven’t looked at them in a few years. My go to is an interstate BLEM (blemished) from the interstate store $85 w/ a 2 year warranty. The Bass battery looks ok but it only...

New to me ‘01 Tundra w/184k needs a few items and fixes to be the first class beater it was meant to be. 4.7L engine runs as smooth as any vehicle I’ve ever owned. Shifts fine and drives nice. And...

MA is not cool with out of state temp tags.

That’s some funny shit right there. I’ll get to work on that mackerel!

Good call on Worcester for summer housing. Sadly Fitchburg doesn’t have much going for it and Worcester a short direct shot...

The Burnt Trailer - taking Allen’s a step too far perhaps?

My sarcasm flow must be turned down too low today, I keed, I keed. I’m a recent transplant to Maine coast. It’s tha shit and then some.

Well if Dad wants them to shake of the Seven Sisters sort of zeitgeist Hampton Beach it seemed like the nearest thing to Padre Island that Northern New England has to offer.

Screw Maine. A few miles down the road they can live free or die in Hampton Beach, NH. Natives were sort of restless last week.

Too fucking right! It’s not hard to find something useful or entertaining to do for 5 or 6 hours a day. The rest of the time is free for goofing off.

The the worst thing about work is that it...

Amusing write-up o. South Shore bar pizza.

Record high prices yet everyone’s still tearassing down the highway at 85 MPH plus. Big diesel pick ups, small 4 banger shit boxes, new priuses you name it. The only thing they have in common is...

If it ain’t broke ...

Different strokes but on my high mileage beaters things get fixed not up graded. It’s a virtual certainty that something else will kill that thing before you can upgrade...

Nice tune. For those who don’t know Jimmy Dale is also famous (well sorta) for playing Smoky in the Big Lebowski.

Prolly not going to disturb you considering the car doesn’t have a long future anyhow but shot head gaskets in that car are likely to poison your catalytic converters and O2 sensors.

Just bought some 2020 brahmas new from STP marked not returnable in store. Interesting about the store in ME though. The Google says S. Portland?

Update on my Prius catalytic converter theft saga.

The cat was stolen about 4 weeks ago. Fortunately even though it’s a high mileage beater we had comprehensive (fire, theft, glass) insurance...

John Prine was fond of it.

And “we’ll continue to break into our shitty on hold music every thirty seconds with a lame apology until you can’t stand it any more and hang up while screaming a blazing stream of profanity.”

Corporate voice mail messages that have begun with “We are experiencing greater than normal call volume ...” for the past two fucking years! Greater than what ? 2019?

They really need to work...

Those would be the words of the venerable Mr. Randy Newman who wrote the song in the early 70s.

I hear you! And they paid some hefty tuition.

I’ll amend you’re advice though. Never buy a modern or EV BMW without a warranty. These beasts are rolling computers shrouded in plastic.

E-cars and trucks seem perfect for Hawaii considering Climate, range issues, cost of gas etc.

Maybe it will be OK with a new vehicle and after you spend an assload of dough on every warranty you...

Not the question asked but some soap boxing on the topic of tire warranties. I never ever buy tire warranties. In fact I have never bought an extended warranty on anything- car, stereo, toaster or...

Decent product. Be careful putting lug nuts on with it though. Max power will over torque the shit out of them.

A word on loaner tools from AZone and others - take a good look at them before you use them. I’ve borrowed a bunch and usually had good results but they’re only as good as the last knucklehead who...

Well I suppose so, but none have done sufficient damage to my psyche to warrant inclusion.

On the other hand, frequently the pseudo macho examples cited are aimed at the ladies too.

I hear you but it All depends on your goal I guess. I use the paint pen to get it close enough to drive to the alignment shop.

And running with blown shocks? I’ve replaced broken rear springs on an 05 Prius and an 07 outback. Knee bone is connected to the thigh bone, etc.

Beg to differ. Do 09 Forester front struts and you are going to need an alignment unless you are the luckiest sumbitch to ever turn a wrench and happen to hit the sweet spot on both the L and R...

I was a little sketched out about the low price on the FCS too. I believe I used them on the outback though and they seemed fine.
