    I get settlements twice a month, I've been a little slack about posting my percentages for a bit, very busy and sometimes things get overlooked...I'll do better from now on.

    As for bikini pics of my girl, I believe @Espressolane summed it up pretty well...lmmfao.

    Took me about 3 hours to change the injector harness. Not really a lot to it so I took the time to get familiar with the valvetrain and watched a YouTube video of a guy running the overhead while I had it open enough to see most everything. A bit more involved than the 12.7 I had seen it done on but something I think I'd be able to do after having a good mechanic hold my hand the first time.

    More later...

    Man!!! You can’t beat the PNW in the spring and summer!

    I grew up there but couldn’t stay. I do love to drive down the gorge once a year or so to remind myself.

    Hey, you don’t know how much work it takes to remove, clean and adjust the carb on my mower.

    So you want a lawnmower that the neighbors hate with a passion? We've got a little diesel lawn tractor that the muffler fell off of and it makes a heck of a racket when you start trying to use it like a bulldozer.

    Lol...man, I think its finally over. Looks like a couple days worth of pretty nasty thunderstorms inbound to Omaha starting tomorrow. Not sure where I'm going next, a couple drivers left us Friday and it's got things a little up in the air. Plan on being back in town by May 9 to be in town for Five Finger Death Punch and to spend a few days with my girl. I'm looking forward to both...for somewhat different reasons.
