Man it's cold, doors were froze shut on the Excursion this morning, so canned that idea. Looks like they're not thawing out until Thursday. I'll give them the graphite treatment then.

On Thanksgiving I got in to a heated exchange with some family and family friends that I could easily describe but would violate board rules but this is what happened. They were talking about something I'm still not sure of what but one of them announced, "People have to earn my respect." And they all started agreeing and slapping themselves on the back for this wisdom. With a lot of history behind it rather than keep my mouth shut I shared my opinion with them. My opinion being, "Your life must really suck if everyone has to earn your respect. Your life would be a lot better if you respected everyone right off and treated respect as something people lose, not earn." That didn't go over well with them. But how can anyone deny basic considerations of\for others until they demonstrate to your satisfaction they have earned your consideration or respect? Interactions with others would never evolve to interactions involving respect when your attitude towards the common courtesy that comes with freely given respect has to be earned first. Everyone has their asshat moments but it takes something special to turn that in to, everyone has their non-asshat moments by choice.

The benefit of doubt is first. Which is respectful from the judges. They would have to prove unworthy...so earned. I believe that's pretty much the way it is..normally. At least where I'm from lol.

Yea it's 15 now. Above freezing on Thursday 36*. This was a thing last year as well, I found some good stuff for the doors made by CRC. I had to order it, works great. Graphite lube, have both wet and dry version. On application goes a long ways.

I looked at it when he first brought up.

Yea he doesn't wash his truck for nobody, even though it never was his.

So why would you lease him another ? Some kind of God complex I imagine.
