I hate texting.
Been texting with a lady that has a Can-Am Spyder that she took into a marine powersports place for some work.
They got air in the brake hydraulics and can't bleed it.
I told her on my 2011 HD you have to use the scan tool to activate the pistons in the ABS & I bet it's something similar with hers.
I passed on working on that because my scan tool won't communicate with it, but she asked about an Indian motorcycle and a 08 grand Prix.
I said sure on those.
So. when I got a text that was a similar number on Wednesday asking about changing the oil and possibly a wheel bearing on a 08 Grand Prix, I thought it was her.

I was watching on the security camera as the car pulled in the driveway.
Then this dude with a beard gets out.
Turns out it was Ted, a friend's kid that has a 08 Grand Prix.
I was a little disappointed. lol

When I see "text only" in a CL ad, I close it. I don''t need whatever they have that badly.

This little guy is pretty friendly.
When I was a kid, I had a couple that would sit on my knee while I gave them peanuts out of my hand. One day, the peanuts were all gone, I stood up to go back into the house, and one climbed my pant leg looking for more. When I called to my mom, she came to the door, and just started laughing. "Get more peanuts, PLEASE!" I said.

Yes, good trip overall. But I've reconfirmed... there is ZERO chance that I could ever live in that state. It was so nice to come back home to a dry state. Waaaay too damn humid in CA (81% yesterday).

On the way home, saw a dude have a seizure, die, then get resuscitated within about 10 minutes time. I had walked past him, and figured he was waiting for family. I went into the bathroom, then when I came back out and he was making a bunch of grunting sounds towards an employee at the airport. Next thing I know he's on the floor having a seizure, and getting CPR. Poor dude... I felt bad for him. Not much I could do - luckily there were medics not too far away.

I just learned it will take me FOUR MONTHS to get rid of all this antifreeze/contaminated water from my coolant flush under the absurd local rules.

And they wonder why people won''t stop illegally dumping household wastes.

Permatex windshield repair was a fail. It underfilled and left an obvious dot in the middle and from inside, it's white. I tried to scratch it back out but no dice. Gonna try Rain-X on top of it.
