    Oh yeah, they very well could have. This year our bonus was 'work as much OT as you can to get all this shit done'

    :crazy:
    Literally, that was the company email...

    Go back to school and learn everything you can about the NIST 800 series publications and I'll let you work OT for me.

    I guarantee the pay is better, even if the boss is kind of a tool.

    Hey at least I'm accepting of it. I know I drink bitch beer. And don't regret it. Although when you're sloshed and more Cider sounds like a great idea, the next morning on the porcelain throne can be an exhilarating experience.

    Nobody up here likes shiner. So I walked into a liquor store and they had them up front for clear out discounted like 50 percent off. The lady didn't understand why I was buying 5 cases. They never had it again. Sad.

    Screw VHB Tape!!!

    Whoever at the port back in 2000 thought it was a good idea to junk up the interior of LCs with stick on wood grain was retarded. My dang fingers feel like they are going to fall off and I still have more residue to get off. I would have left it but it was all delaminating as it was.

    Shiner used to make good beer, (and Bock is still passable), but now they are trying to chase all the frou-frou business with :censored: that resembles wine coolers.

    If I’m not drinking an IPA /double / triple shiner Bock is definitely my go to beer.


    Unrelated crawled under the LC100 today and noticed what might be a front diff leak ugh.. going to clean it up, tighten all bolts and see if it’s coming from there or somewhere above. Looks like both CVs were replaced recently hoping they just didn’t tighten something up or maybe a clogged breather

    If it's the 4.7L, then most likely crank seal.

    Jeff, Shiner Bock is excellent beer. I have been across this planet, funded by the prestigious United States Navy to taste test all alcoholic beverages from all nations, and Shiner Bock, is still #1.

    4.7 it is, I have some of the service records need to see if that was done or not. How much work is it if that’s the case? May be something I tackle, or if it’s lots of work it’s being outsourced to you

    If you're gonna do the timing belt, then doing the crank seal at the same time is only 5min extra work. If you're not doing the timing belt, then doing the crank seal is not worth it unless its pouring oil out.

    Oh, believe me, I'm a fan. When I lost my mind in '99, and moved back to Minnesota from Houston, having forgotten that it still snows there, Shiner Bock was one of the things I missed the most, (not available in MN at that time). A friend of the wife's, unbeknownst to me, drove up two cases, after I had been out of luck for over a year. When she pulled into our driveway, and popped open the back door of her car, showing me the beautiful nectar, I fell to my knees! I savored those two cases, then was out again. In September of '03, after I realized my family doesn't travel to visit, either to Texas or within the state of MN, we moved back, and all was good. A week after we moved in, I got a call from a friend in MN, who proceeded to tell me he was drinking a draft Shiner Bock, at a bar not too far from the place we had just vacated!!! :mad::mad::mad:

    It is good, and I'll have some in my fridge here from time to time, but it doesn't hold a candle to Pinthouse Pizza's Electric Jellyfish:

    This is my favorite beer. I wish it was available in cans. I may need to buy a keg and kegorator but this may be opposite the Mrs. idea of healthy for 2020

    Edit: I'll drink.most beers and my true fav is free beer
