    Nice setup! Sounds like a nice Rig! I ended up with Fox on all four corners. With 1.75 lift in the front, and 1.5 in the rear. Very happy with the ride. That's awesome that you have the FJ and a Tacoma! Glad to hear the weather is cooperating Up that way!

    Good morning

    Its only 0548hrs and I've barely been able to sleep . Just took a couple Advil extra strength pain meds and a large glass of water . hopefully it'll calm down the knee pain and maybe I can get a couple more hrs of sleep

    So far that's only been 3 hrs so far and I hate it when can't sleep . Also very strong Santa Ana's with maybe 50 plus mph gusts and hearing the winds pounding the bldg isn't helping either

    I dont remember the winds lasting more than a day before, in this area.

    Have you tried smoking that green 'sports bottle' for the pain?

    Back from the barber aka therapist... I had a breakthrough while discussing my 'issues'. I need to set up a chair down in the basement way in the back by the oil tank and sit down there with the lights out. "Nobody down here but us spiders"! "Just go back upstairs and leave us alone"!

    BTW, wifey (the red flash) warped a rotor on the Forester XT. Sooo, I have a bake job to do on the car. Instead of fighting it, I picked up a Hawk brake kit with drilled & slotted rotors. Now she can run auto cross for God sakes!

    Good morning, sounds like a rough night for some hate to hear that. I joke often about it and when tired and miserable the next day usually just say sleep is NOT over rated. Hope the day is good for everyone.

    Would like to say it doesn't bother me anymore but in the back of my mind it still does. Was just getting ready to call it a day yesterday and alerts starting to come in from one of the systems. Someone screwed up half way across the country and got them to fix their shit finally. Then they went home. In the meantime thousands of medical images got screwed up and I had to fix each one individually. Was up to midnight doing it came on here from time to time to take a break. Been salary since 1977. And that is where I went wrong. And being what my Ex used to call the go to guy. But I know things are correct when I'm done with it.

    Thank you for all your work with the Scouts that you do Andy. I thought you were done with that when your son made Eagle ;) I was in Scouts and my oldest was too, it is a good program IMO. Takes a lot of work and time.

    Sheesh! You figure they'd gravitate to the socialist state of CA before hitching a ride to get to the communistic state of CT! Learn something new everyday!

    I'm out fellas, going to make some noise in the garage and then use the mower to regrade the front lawn near the parked cars...

    Just full of piss & vinegar today, eh!

    I was done, they found me. Now I work in Council, training. It was hard to say no, we are all volunteers and seeing these boys go from tweens to adults, with an understanding of what they are capable of, has been inspiring.
