60+ year old thread.

That is a hilarious image. Two cars roaring down the quarter mile in silence, no roar, just silence. Yep that would be boring.

 

Formula E is watchable.

 

Good morning, all!! Looks like a quiet and rainy day is in store for us here in northeast PA! Stay safe out there!!

Fuel , tires, suspension adjustments.

Burns off..

they wouldn’t upgrade unless the demand was trending up.

 

Yet another reason not to live there.

 

Expecting an inch of rain in NC today. Good morning all. Hope everyone is doing fine. Gonna help my friend install some gas logs today.

 

Raining and a high of 66 today in the DC area. At 8:12 it is 55 in my backyard.

 

Raining hard on the count down to my last commute day. KO2s stuck like glue.

 

Last commute day ? U retiring ?

 

My Mrs still works for a local fire district (HR) - you should see the training stuff they have about electric cars........ haz mat city. Toxic gases abound - and some of the wreck footage looks like a welder ran amuck. No regulations exist about a universal shut-off. SCBA's just to pullout the survivors - crazy stuff.

They are finding that firefighters have some huge increased risk of cancer as time goes by - all of the plastics, adhesives and coatings are bad actors in a fire. Even the smothering foam has had its effect.

 

Yes sir. Dec 10 is my last real work day. I report back Jan 7 for exit interview and get credit for full month of Jan 2021.

 

Cool . Congratulations ! Its a strange adjustment.

 

True. I did not expect the flood of memories.

 

Here too, except it turned out to be 2" of sloppy wet snow, and then warming just enough to rain from the trees next day.
Uniform of the day will be a wet sweat shirt.

 

Good morning folks. Rain is here as well and occasionally some high wind gusts. Thankfully no need to go out.

three years ago, an enterprising person opened an indoor electric go cart track . Kind of reminded me of my younger years when slot car tracks were abundant and all you would hear was the whine of the electric motors racing around the track.

Have a great day and stay dry.

 

Well , i got lucky. All the gas line work was in the basement. Ran the gas line thru the floor , set his cabinet on top . They really put out the heat.

 

Exit interview?
WTF is that.

Mine will be get your tool box and get out

 

Turn badge and laptop in. Sign papers that you will not disclose or work for a competitor for x days etc....I never in the past would sign most of that BS now I don't care and if it gives me some 2021 beni's then fine

 

Come to think of it, i still have my security pass in my wallet. No worries tho , they would have to drag my ass back in there .
