4000 posts in 8 months!?

What's with walgamuth? Over 4000 posts in 8 months? That's quite impressive.

Do you work or sleep?

well.....

has it been eight months already?

work some, sleep some, here is the thing, i dont watch tele. too old to do serious wrenching, too poor to buy all the cars i want... still know a lot about 123 diesels. can help. more fun than reading a book. but i read a lot of books too. dont need over 6 hrs of sleep, sometimes wake up and cant go back to sleep anyway. and fooling around here feels a little like doing something worthwhile. kids all out of nest except one. sex doesnt occupy nearly as much of my time as i once imagined it could.

so there you have it.

oh yeah did i mention i just love to offer opinions.

do i get a prize? is it a new record? will guiness be calling?

I doubt it.

You would have to post about 50% more than you currently do if you want to keep up with Bonehead.

Or, one post every 58 minutes. Jeez.

I, OTOH, have averaged only one every 390 minutes. Apparently, I've got some 'esplanin' to do....

Some talk much, but say much of nothing.
