Went to CTC yesterday to grab some stuff for my wife’s birthday, well my one kid’s door got away from her and nailed the car next to us (Dodge Dart, not clean or anything, has some marks in it already), of course it was my rear door which has the dreaded wheelhouse corner/door destroyer built in at no charge. So she starts crying and apologizing, I grab a paper and scribble a note, head in and when done the car is still there.
So I immediately head over to my PDR guy to get his number to give to the car owner, leave there and head to another store and I get a text, says “I’m the owner of the car your kid hit, don’t worry about it it’s fine and thanks for writing the letter, that was very nice”. I replied back thanks for understanding, showed the kids and went about my day thinking what a nice person to not try and hose me out of some cash since really, they could have.
FYI, my kids are well-trained with their doors and this is only the second time she has hit another car (first was no damage) in 5 years of opening her door by herself.

Quickie restaurant review
Keg (Leslie s/o 401)

While the food and service at the Markham Rd location has been good each and every time, falls a hair or three short of what we experienced on Friday. From the minute we walked in the door, uber friendly and quick to seat us. Mgr came out to be sure they had Kath's gluten free order correct, both our meals arrived cooked perfect, taste was off the charts amazing. Our waiter, super attentive always seemed to slide by at the right time. Meals themselves, terrific value, we will most certainly be back.

Purdy day... just finished centering the steering on the notch after the kmember and coilover install yesterday... I’m hung over like mad though. Getting too old to drink and get high... I will cut back on drinking and focus on weed. Lol Now to build a sun shelter to gain some wife points.

[WTF]

finished up the flower-planting this morning......had to go back to Sheridan for one more run of begonias......this year I've got a combo of dragon-wing, tuberous and bonfire

19 planters on the property....most of them pretty big....spent about 4hrs Saturday, 6 hrs yesterday and 2 hrs today to get them all in

add in the 4 hanging baskets and I've got a hell of alot of flowers going on

I planted 154 flower-plants into the planters that came in either 6" or 4.5" containers....not to mention the kms I put on my feet getting them all home and into the yard

told Sheridan they should be selling their flower fertilizer in 5 gallon drums instead of these little bins so I don't have to buy 6 at a time

giver about 2-3 weeks of watering, fertilizer and warm temps and the yard is gonna be pretty nice

I'm fucking beat

Yup im close to giving up lol- chipper gun went through concrete and I slipped into the 4 ft hole spraining my ankle- to make matters worse the chipper bit went deep into the dirt and I couldn’t get it out lol

I thought of mini ex- just getting it home may be a problem lol

i rented mini excavator to demolish a rear basement step. big mistake, designed to dig not lift. and it wouldn't pull the chinks of concreate out of the hole.

best bet make an 4 frame out of some 4x4 lumber, buy a chain fall and winch it out. also could use a high lift jack and boards with a chain to lift it out. been down this road before and digging is the slowest hardest method

How I've pulled footings in the past.

-Get a piece of 6x6 or thick steel tubing.
-Take my spare truck wheel and roll it near the hole.
-Fire a 1" hammer drill through the side of the footing, toss a 1" steel rod through hole
-Chain the rod to the post
-Position the post over the spare wheel as the fulcrum
-Have at it on the lever side

If you've fully excavated the post you're really just trying to break the ground suction at the base to get it to lift. I've also used my truck to pulling by laying the chain over the tire then pulling with truck.

Ya the post is gone ( snap off from wind storm) it’s the concrete that’s left- not the normal size- I figured build just made the hole and poured concrete directly to fill it - even 12 inch sonotube I’ve got is small- I’ll try chain/ metal rod-
One guy stop by and said he has an atv with a winch to try - if not his pick up truck- coincidentally I think it’s a Dodge Ram lol

I use the Mastercraft Maximum torque wrench...seems fine and has a lifetime warranty.

^Our lube bay uses that one as well, have had it replaced several times under warranty, lotsa guys using at, mostly in their teens/20s, done give a crap.

As for the DeWalt, I don’t know anything about it but I know Stanley tools owns DeWalt as well as Mac tools, so it should be decent quality.

With regards to the post, what’s I’d do is use the hammer you have but focus in one or two spots, at the outer edge of the post, but closer to the outside and work your way in, if you can get it to split it should come out in pieces fairly easily.

Another thing on my mind...one dream went "boom". I always liked the 05 was saving for one. Saw one at a used car dealer and looked at it... I don't fit. My right leg is very uncomfortable against the console. I even looked if I could put install new seat brackets, but the driver's seat was already touching the rear seat. Although tight, it's a better fit in an 04. Although the early stangs (64-73) are my favorite (but out of my price range), the 99-04 models are my new savings goal!

or if the cement dosnt crack. cover you new post with construction adhesive and slide it into your newly hollowed cement. and fill the rest in

Panhard bar combined with some new tires and brakes, pretty much a completely different car. It rides really well for what it is... It’s nice to know the ass end won’t just lose it every time I punch it a bit around a corner.

Making a kids area in the finished portion of the basement (just a square in the middle that's drywalled due to the open staircase). Had the old blue carpet full of dog piss and shit from the previous owners... now installing dricore, then the engineered hardwood.

[Old Fart]

We were driving around Guelph yesterday and WOW the roads are in great condition compared to the one's in Timmins. Makes owning a toy so much better.

[Old Fart]

Back home now...saw a great car show, did some shopping at Princess Auto and picked up the dog...had a great time!!

This was my favorite...

Finally finished all the hardwood, from 2nd floor to basement landing... My favorite pic of the house LOL Looks cool...

https://i.imgur.com/cbK8lq7.jpg

The basement has an open ceiling around the stairs and that little 18x10 landing will be a kids playroom as we can see them from the kitchen (I have one kid but she has a lot of annoying friends lol). Basement is all spray foamed and that area has DriCore stuff so it's super comfortable. We're putting kids playtime padding stuff or whatever it's called to protect the floors, I mean the children from the hard floor lol.. The unfinished part of the basement is still 1300sq-ft... I'm setting up a stage, a wet bar, lounge area, ping-pong and maybe a pool table too... Also a Mustang parts storage area in the rough-in bathroom right now haha...

Wife is happy so that's all good.

If the renter next to you doesn't appear to have any discernible income yet has food orders coming in daily, has put an crummy inflatable pool in the middle of their yard and is constantly in it with their screaming (not normal, I mean so loud I hear them in the house over my TV) kids, put a swing at the back of their yard faced directly in to your house, throws garbage in piles on their property which blows on to yours, and has now taken in a dog that has never been walked so it spends it's day barking constantly and having diarrhea all over their yard, can you kill them legally?

I wish I had Jordon's patience and tolerance for utterly STUPID and annoying people deserving of being punched right through the skull... I'm a HUGE fan of JP, what a great human fighting for common sense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiHb4KJLFyE

I think we have it too easy in the Western world and we're imploding - we are spoiled idiots with success and easily have all the necessities of life (for the most part). Safe spaces, 30+ pronouns and not using them = hate crime, SJW's, flat earthers, liberal arts degrees, etc... We need some form of calamity to cleanse the world of these hopeless individuals and hit the reset button... For the sake of humanity, this insanity needs to stop. Governments have been leaning far too left and allowing the collective voiced stupidity of the mentally challenged minority to supersede common sense and the greater good of the population.

Look at that smug thing: https://youtu.be/LiHb4KJLFyE?t=15m36s Someone failed as a parent. Jesus there's no hope for civilization... There's educating, studying and accepting the fact that some humans don't follow their biological sex (not to mention minding your own business when it comes to someone else's life) and then there's SJW's attacking and wanting to force us to use zerr and zee because "gender is bad". Religion used to stop the spread of science and knowledge, now it's hurt-feeling nutjobs attempting to stop free speech and having useful conversations to gain knowledge.

the upside - the crew showed up on Wednesday and repaired the aluminum damaged when that huge maple tree came down a few weeks ago.....so a new 55ft length of eavestrough with leaf guard, and replaced all the 61 year old scratched siding on the front peak of the house.....looks absolutely fantastic

the downside - I specifically asked them to be very careful around my 30" monster planters on either side of the front entrance filled with $200 worth of awesome huge flowers......well....they made it right until the end....and then when one of the crew was taking away a wood plank from the scaffolding....it slipped and whammo....$200 worth of squashed flowers

I was more than slightly miffed....and the owner said he'd compensate and take that off the bill....but it was the lowest paid dude on the crew that did it....so I told him we'd chalk it up to "shit happens" cause I didn't think it would be fair to have that dude work a full day for nothing over some fucking flowers

anyhoo....if you told me 30 years ago that I'd be desperately racing over to Sheridan Nursery at 7am on a Saturday morning to comb every fucking rack in the place looking for the ever-dwindling supply of Dragon-wing Begonias....I've have told you to twist up another fatty and pass it over

but there I was

and I scored all the bastards I needed

so I have an afternoon project today....should take about 5 or 6 beers I think

yeah....just got the landscaping job right in front of the house to do now

I repaired the lawn....and it's pretty much mint now....just a couple of small spots that need more seed and soil....made out pretty good cause it basically destroyed about 40% of my front lawn....so to have it back in less than a month is not too bad

house damage is now fixed

new landscaping plan is approved....just waiting (impatiently) for the crew to pencil me in....was told last week it would be in two weeks....which would mean one week to go....but getting a vibe that they're not on schedule

if they push me off....I'll tell them to pound salt and do a non-stop weekend getting it done myself

New Jersey School Superintendent Arrested After Allegedly Repeatedly Pooping on School's Field

New Jersey superintendent Thomas Tramaglini was arrested after he was allegedly spotted defecating on Holmdel High School’s track and football field.

Police arrested Tramaglini early Tuesday while he was running on the Holmdel High School track, according to ABC News.

In a statement on Facebook, the Holmdel Township Police Department wrote high school coaches and staff “were finding human feces on or near the area of the High School track/football field on a daily basis.”

When school officials began monitoring the area, a school resource officer and school staff were “able to identify a subject responsible for the acts,” the statement continued, adding the 42-year-old was “charged with lewdness, littering and defecating in public.”

Tramaglini has not commented on the charges. It is unclear if he has retained an attorney.

On Tuesday, the Kenilworth Board of Education announced that “Dr. Tramaglini requested and was granted a paid leave from the district,” clarifying that “leaves can only be without pay in the face of indictments or tenure charges, as a matter of state law.”

“Effective immediately, Brian Luciani, our Director of Academics, will assume the responsibilities of the office of superintendent of schools,” they continued.

The superintendent was earning about $147,504 a year, according to NJ.com. The outlet reports leave would be unpaid if he was indicted or facing tenure charges.

Tramaglini served as superintendent of Kenilworth Public Schools in New Jersey, a neighboring school district to Holmdel High School, which is under the jurisdiction of the Holmdel Township Public School district.

Taking over for him in the interim is Brian Luciani, director of academics at Kenilworth Public Schools, according to ABC News.

The principal of Holmdel High School, William Loughran, had no comment on Tramaglini’s arrest or incidents, the outlet reports.

Tramaglini is scheduled to appear in Holmdel Municipal Court on May 7, according to The Independent.

Still trying to get the boat back together. Exhaust boot turned into the gimbal bearing which turned into rebuilding the gimbal ring and mount.
Have a new lift pump to go in after my old one shit the bed last year. On a gut instinct I pulled the lift rams of and compressed them by hand sure enough one went crunch crunch at the bottom. Pulled it apart to find the inner piece in pieces. Found out they were no longer available from mercruser. Tried the after market and also discontinued there. Dropped one off at the local boat shop he was gonna do some digging on retrofits. 20 min after I dropped it off another guy stopped in looked at it and said hey I have a pile of those exact cylinders. Scored a pair that are perfect for $100. Lucked out big time.

Just finished cleaning them up. Was one cotter pin short of getting it reasembled this evening.

Mmmmm. The lake is calling.

[hsousa88]

yes, the role description is the easy part and we're changing it as well but this is the kind of place where someone can cry about it and ruin it for everyone else. My response is to simply work hard and change your career and quit your job if you don't want to deal with people in an office, someone else will take your spot. But I can't be so harsh, I don't know how to say it in such a way that won't produce friction. If it was up to me 100% I'd do more of a shift work for that team so they have 4 day work weeks and we have "off hour" support for the organization. They can't telecommute but I don't see why we can't find a way to give them a 3 day weekend, but it always gets complicated, if you have to pick up your kid from daycare or something, working until 6, 4 days a week won't be very good for you.

Had a guy in shorts and a tank top pass me on an old, rough looking sport type bike on Hwy 10 in Caledon this evening. I was doing about 90km/h. I'm guessing he was doing about 180km/h. I wonder if karma will visit him soon.

[NickD]

Wanted to give a big thanks to Frank for helping me tonight and for letting me keep him working until nearly 11.
I needed to install 2 rear o2s sensors (middle of the car) and my jack won't let me get the front high enough to get back that far.
Frank invited me over to use his lift, and we soon found out the wires were too short.
While extending the wires he changed the front two sensors, figured out how to secure the wiring and made everything look much nicer then in sure I would have.
Car drove great back home, light stayed off and should be good for the e-test Sat. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180615/7442a3388372283eec21e91532f42c3f.jpg

[Scrape]

I need to go home and sleep.

[stangstevers]

I'm usually at the office at 6:30am, I work fast so I pretty much finish what I need to by 10am and the rest of the day is pretty much just hanging out and doing nothing... well I'm taking my PMP courses and then CBAP designation exam prep too (finished those courses)... I do a lot of reading on leadership and psychology here too and the rants online LMAO...

I wish companies encouraged people who work well... Instead we have to hide our efficiency. I just let enough of it out to make myself look good. Before getting into leadership, I was working maybe 10 hours a week as I automated or streamlined a lot of processes and my reviews were always around 95% despite being a major slacker. In the past, I used to share all my findings and all it did was punish me. I remember making a software that automated campaign building for marketing. It saved me about 10 hours per campaign. What happened? My boss had me doing 5x the work my role would normally do. My salary stayed the same and he got promoted because "so much output from a small team"... Fuck that noise, I learnt my lesson.

But I go against the grain in an office where the average age seems to be in the 60's... I unplugged my office phone and changed the voicemail to "don't leave a message, please email or txt [cell phone]"... I'm trying to convince the company to turn off all voicemails, it's stupid and eventually no more emails between staff unless absolutely necessary, start changing behavior to use chat and chatbots. My team is using Slack.com to communicate although I'm moving towards o365 Groups/Teams for that and removing some software we use to track time as we're a cost recovery department. I calculated we will save about 5 hours of total employee time per day using an "exception rule" which automates about 95% of the billing and this causes less friction for the day-to-day operations for employees.

[stangstevers]

We were promised 3 day work weeks with the invention of the computer lol I think they said the same about the type-writer and now they're saying the same with AI... lol

Nice addition.

Went for a morning cruise. Top down, a/c on, cooled seat on. Siriusly Sinatra on the radio.

I've loved all the Mustangs I've owned but this one... It's pretty much perfect.

It's a warm one out there already so if you're heading out for extended periods, take some water and use sunscreen.

x2 on the heat. Just came bact from a short walk with the dog and it’s toasty out there.

LOL! I guess Fox has the inside scoop. Would have posted in Pics and Vids forum but there's a few expired links out there.


“Fox and Friends” co-host Abby Huntsman is under fire after she referred to the highly anticipated summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as a meeting of “two dictators.”

If your out and about today, keep a bottle of water by your side n keep chugging it back. If your pets outside, be sure they have shade and lots n lots n lots of water.

Need more sleep. That is all. Coffee is failing to co-operate today.

I’m so hungover this morning.. I think I will stop drinking and stick to weed...

Great day down at Niagara Falls and Niagara-on-the-Lake yesterday as an anniversary day out (was actually last week but figured we'd get out for the day on the weekend) - yes it was hot but we spent a little time at the Falls (was cool in the mist) then made a beeline for NOTL. Had a great lunch at Ravine Vineyard who has a nice patio overlooking the rows of grapevines. If anyone is looking for a great spot for lunch/dinner when out on a day trip this works - food was good, wine was good (since it was hot we needed a cooled drink so opted for their chilled 2017 Cabernet Rose and 2017 Gewürztraminer wines; already had a bottle of the Gewürz at home since it is tasty but the newly released Cab Rose surprised us - went nicely with my burger, and left with a bottle for the wine cellar).

Their patio is also pet-friendly as well so you can sit out on the patio outside edge with your dog if they're along for the day-trip with you.

Did a favour for a coworker and took his new hire employee out for lunch and she’s an open mouth chewer... just nasty. I have mesophona (sp?) so that sound drives me nuts.

New Tee shirt perhaps??

Still thinking about one of these bad boys, anyone here riding one?
This one is an '06 Special Edition with 10,000kms on it. Love the color combo, almost bought same edition in gold at the bike show a few years back.

Misophonia is what you are looking for I believe.

YES!

Yay got the grout done last night, bathroom is almost done! Last piece will be the mud room. It took a year pretty much but I touched every square inch which is around 4500sqft (including basement) of this stupid house. I have to admit, I'm tired of this - I just want to work on the Cobra and relax. All this shit with a hydrocele issue which is painful as fak!

Then in 5 to 10 years once the market is better, we sell this place and move into a small house on a big land in the middle of nowhere in cash and just eat off the land and say F-U to society. lol

Planning on seeing what it goes for tmra. But seriously who buys a Raptor as a work truck, then supercharges it, then beats the ever loving shit out of it, then sells/trades it sans headrests.
