    Nothing a little loud music can't cure.

    Working in the yard all day today. So much to do. The people I bought my house from had some ridiculous landscaping done so I'm trying my best to keep it up. I'm not a flower guy but some of the stuff I have is ridiculous.

    I did with some WD40. I know even if that does the trick, it'll only last for a couple days.

    That's what I usually do.

    Try some chain oil. That's what I do with mine and the squeak goes away for a month or two

    Yeah I had projector fogs but they weren't too good.

    So I adjusted the headlights. My high beams are in the damn trees, but the projectors are pretty good. They need to go up more tonight. I also am gonna try to twist the projectors a little bit because they are both higher on the drivers side and slope down at a slight angle to the passenger side. Just a tiny little correction. These are hard to line up by eye anyway lol

    We had dish and it sucked royal dick. Every time it rained or snowed we would lose connection, every time the wind blew too hard the dish would get knocked out of alignment and we would have to get a rep out to aim it again. It was annoying

    Just two weeks ago I changed from dish to uverse. I've been a subscriber with dish since 1997 and when I wanted to upgrade, they wanted to charge for the same equipment that they give new subscribers free. It would go out only with very, very heavy rain so I guess the dish was aligned pretty good - I did the install back when they would send you the kit.
    Soooo, uverse was installed on June 27th. So far I've had 4 techs here, including the original installer, because it doesn't work well at all. It looks like the installer didn't want to do the job and did it half assed resulting in poor connections and a screwed up account. It's so bad that I have a customer loyalty rep calling me to see how things are going. Back to the install: The bastard gets out of his truck and tells me he can't install today because he doesn't have any cat 5 for the indoor runs. I guess he never heard of a telephone to call another installer in the area. Little did he know, I burst his bubble when I showed him 3 1000' spools of cat 5 in my basement! In the end, I guess they all suck to a degree; some more than others. It's all up to how good of a job the installer does as to whether you'll have good service.

    I had to play with mine for awhile before they were good . I just went to the industrial park at night and adjusted with the lights against the building.

    Just replaced my pads. I was definitely due for some new ones. The rotors looked pretty good, so I didn't replace those.
