GraveYard Shift BS

Quiet in here tonight. Struggling to make it to 5am awake this shift

 

New guy showed up tonight. Slowing me way down. Should be waiting for day light by now. Instead I have to keep him moving. And I can't let him off the leash yet, so I got to check his work

 

All computer systems down till at least 5am. Been down since 10 pm. Woo hoo!

 

I'm in the same boat right now

 

The new job have day time hours?

 

Covered for day shift today. Man it's tough to work days...

 

I'm surprised you're awake. Unless you go back in on nights soon?

 

Not til Wednesday. Went to bar for drinks with some friends. Crashing soon. Then maybe amp install this weekend sometime... Thanks again!

 

No problem. Ha now I'm having a hell of a time trying to figure out what amp for the single sundown 8 that just got deivered

 

Nice. I've Got a Kenwood excelon 1600 mono amp collecting dust...

 

Damn. Is that 1600 max or 1600 rms? The sundown is 300rms, but everyone says sundown can take way more than rms

 

Pretty sure max. But I'll check in am. It pushed my jl w12v3 hard for sure.

 

I have the dual 2 ohm sub so I'll be running it at 4ohms fyi

 

well i got called in on my day off at 6pm because of a fatality M/C accident. now going home

 

I have a friend who works the in the ER dept. They call them donor cycles. With spring coming on there has been a hell of a lot of accidents out here.

 

I was on the brink of buying a Victory when I found out my wife was pregnant with our first. I will never own a MC now that I have a family to look after. Boston drivers are some of the worst in the country.

 

I'll willingly admit that i just don't see motor cycle riders as well as cars. More than once I've noticed them long after i would have seen a vehicle.

I have no issue with bike riders, but just know i won't own one.

 

As sad as it can be, that's how my best friend got her new liver. Her older sister's friend died in a crash and the family specifically donated the healthy liver to her. Now she is living a healthy and normal life for the first time in her 27 years.

You can get one of those trikes or polaris sporty side by side things that are highway worthy. Ever so slightly safer than a motorcycle. Still could be crushed in an instant.

I'd say for all the 1st gen and up crash pictures I've seen. I feel pretty confident that I will survive a crash or roll in one of our tacos. The cabs always look like they have held up well.

 

I immediately go on alert if i see a cycle or hear them; but I agree that it's much harder to see them right off the bat like you would a car.

Now bicycle riders? I almost want to run them over. .. Those people can be nuts. They love this hilly county highway I life off of. Blind spots ever few hundred feet, people fly by going 60mph+ and there's essentially no shoulder....but yes go ahead and ride that bike at 8mph in your skin tight shorts.....

 

I'll just get a TJ or s2000 for summer rides. Unfortunately they both hold their value very well and can't be found on the cheap. Wife wants a VW Eos as her fun car but I'm sure if I picked up a mid-late 2000s lex sc 430 she'd take it for a spin.
