    Happy Tuesday
    I need another cup of ambition. Then clean pellet stove and bring some pellets into house.


    Same here.
    My brother retired last year at the ripe old age of 53. He worked for the federal prison system, military before that.

    I’m just wondering what SIRI considers “eye candy”:eek: Then again I probably don’t want to know.:rolleyes:

    Already? The winter is still young. I clean mine when the ash bucket is full. Takes about a ton of burnt pellets to fill it:D

    He must have had his finger over the camera so Siri couldn’t see if the request was valid

    65

    When i started working full retirement was 62.
    Then it creeps to 65 now 67
    I try not to think about it because I could have retired in 4 months.
    All they are doing is postponing as long as poss. So when you retire your worn out and beat to death and will die shortly after.
    My FIL, his friend and a uncle died within 18 months after retiring.
    I will not see retirement. Or if I do I will not live long enough or have the quality to enjoy it. So if I can have a little fun now I do. Saving for retirement is a joke. Go without all your life to save for when you can’t do anything. Your gonna lose everything anyway so you might as well have fun while you can.

    It been a balmy 50 deg here all day. The 6” of snow we had is all but gone now and now I’m left with mud when the dogs come in. They like to run through the puddles and get mud all over their bellies... bugger!

    Afternoon everyone !! :hattip:

    Just had fun trying to get my Camaro started after sitting for close to 2 weeks of cold weather . After fuel fouling some plugs and a few backfires that I had to put out it finally got it running

    It still feels like I've got some fuel fouled plugs though as it is idling very fat and might have to pull the plugs and put new ones in

    After it got up to temp I took it out for a little cruise around town and had some fun scaring kids in Honda's . I was surprised on how many fast street / strip cars I saw cruising around today even in low 50° temps

    Saw a really nice 65 Nova Pro Street cruising around and it sounded very healthy . it had a very loose converter and sounded like a 5500 stall
