You spend a lot of time in airports, don't you, TX? What do you do while you're waiting there? Do most/any airports have WIFI?

its math that really serves no real purpose other than making you want to rip your brain out and yell at it.





in other news I reserved a U-Haul trailer for saturday to pick up my delorean. I will post pictures of the whole ordeal like I did with eagle-co94's retrival. This time I require a trailer since the car is like 8 miles away and not 800 yards...

Even Einstein had trouble with stuff like that. Making people learn it seems needlessly cruel to my way of thinking.

Cool! Looking forward to the pics of your progress.

I rented one when I hauled my Scout home. Their trailers are actually pretty impressive as far as engineering and fabrication goes. They do get beat to hell, though.

I can imagine there's got to be some cool stuff! Are you going to start pulling double shifts and extra overtime to support your habit?

Hey everybody!

I finished up a repair yesterday that I was working on since Sunday. Check out my thread with pics:
Hood hinge drain rust repair

Now I can get back on track with fixing up my In-laws house. I'll be heading over there shortly. I just have to pack up the diaper bag and get the kids loaded into the wagon.

Have a great Wednesday!

You seem to have a LOT of energy, Chad. Good luck!

I'm alive and well this morning. My leather restoration project seems to be moving along quite nicely. I have some terrific leads to follow today. It's also a little cooler today. Life is truly good.

Have a wonderful Hump Day everybody. Good luck with your mission of mercy, Powerpig.
