Good Morning!

[Just John]

Good morning everyone! The neighbor's son got his booster Friday morning and felt sick as a result. Since it was from the booster they let him go to a big formal dance that night and he posted lots of pictures hugging people, kissing a few girls on the cheek, etc. You know where this is going. There are going to be some sick kids this weekend. There were a couple hundred kids at the dance.

On a more positive note, my daughter's boyfriend got a 3D printer and can make me things for the tank. Now I just need to decide what I want. A bristle worm trap sounds like a good start!

I just found out the GM, Regional Manager, and both owners all tested positive. My 3 day weekend just got cancelled. It's burning through this tiny little town really quick. Just in time for the big rush.

Good morning…somewhere! I’ll have to catch up later…probably when I’m sitting in the Fort Lauderdale airport Saturday whining about going home. Trip has been beyond amazing so far. Two days in a row swimming with the fishies. No pictures, so I guess it didn’t happen! One of these days, I’m going to buy an underwater camera. This was a nice beach. Our catamaran captain today said he started working on a boat when he was 15 and now owns the boat. Sounds good to me…surely somebody out there needs “elderly” deck hands!

I live by the beach in Florida and even I am super jealous!

The WRX completely failed to induce automotive lust in me. I am extremely disappointed. It was more powerful than my Impreza but not more fun. I enjoyed the manual transmission and could still work one. I noticed I was double clutching going down a ramp and smiled. But there was no WOW factor for me at all. The car was vanilla.
It was a crappy day here and I didn't want to get it sideways but it really never tried to. I told them to look for one with a CVT and all the options my Impreza has on it and I would come back.

A long time ago I had a Ford Probe GT. I loved it the moment I drove off the lot. Got me in trouble many times.

Just didn't happen today.

Good morning everyone! It has a hit 50F a few mornings this week so it was time to break out the alpaca hoodie (don't get to use it very often) but I want to make the best out of that animal's haircut when I can!

Good morning
We got some snow last night. Just a little. Almost like it's January here.

 

[Mike from TN]

Good Morning!
Rained here all day yesterday and then the temps dropped. It’s 18* here right now and guess what, we are covered in a sheet of ice again.
I ordered up a set of different side steps for the Jeep. The ones that are on it now are flush with the bottom of the rocker panels and it’s a little hard getting in and out ( Hmmm, I sure do miss In-N-Out Burger in California!) Sorry, I got sidetracked there for a moment!
Anyhooo! The new steps have a 4” drop so “this old guy” won’t break a groin getting in or out.
We love living in the country but I gotta tell Y’all, it’s a real mud hole here right now with the recent snow, melt offs, and rain. Can’t wait for Spring already and Winter just started.
Wishing you all the greatest of days today! Stay Salty!

I’m jealous of you living by the beach! If this trip hadn’t worked out, Clearwater was our alternative. Not a bad alternative!!

 

[Mike from TN]

Move to the South they said!
It’ll be warm there year round!
NOT!

I like my weather like my news. Just the facts. Don't tell me what to feel about it please.
Silly people going OOh it's cold.
It's supposed to be. It's January.

Good Morning, I made my Grand Daughter her favorite meal. King crab legs.

I also baked a couple of loaves of bread and made my favorite, linguine and clams.

Paul both my favorites! I am not a pasta guy but that is definitely my preferred and same for seafood I will take king crab over lobster any day. What a lucky young lady!

Good morning
More snow tonight. Goody.

Are those speed rated tires? You made me want to look at look at

Shame on you. Jill is giving me the side eye thing. I saw it when Jeanna had her car in for service and I picked her up.
Pretty much what I have now only a lot snortier.
Then there is way snortier

I am a sucker for red too.

Ned how do you like the WRX? I have until next year so I am gathering info.

Good morning everyone!

Might have a 3rd coffee not sure yet or steal one of my wife's nespressos. Didn't think they would be as good as they are.

Work from home days are pretty awesome and back to the winter wonderland and out of the 70° weather. No complaints just more layers! I recently transferred a multi tank system into a 180g someone gave me and I was nervous for it while on vaca, but other than dirty glass and some cyano all is well!

Have a great day everyone.

I was unimpressed. I am going to go look at another one. The car has a Cobb tuner plugged into it. I know what it is but not how to use it. Neither did anyone I met at the dealership. I dont know how the engine management was set up when I drove it. The car was grossly overpriced.
I found another one that is a year newer, has more options and is thousands less. Except it is white. I may go see it today. So far I am keeping the Impreza. I guess I need to remove the muffler delete If dealers are going to look at my car. They turn the stink eye on you for mods and then try to tell you how all the mods on their car increase the price.
All they tell me is the car has been run hard. Not good on a used car with a clutch.
