Re: Rep Retirement Thread 130: Revolutions Abound!

Good morning. Just dropped my car off for its 30,000 mile service. Had no idea it was going to cost me that much. I've already dropped off some stuff at the drycleaners, got gas for the ride to Providence tonight. Now I.m waiting for my dad to pick me up. Gonna hang at their house while I wait for my car. Plus they have the Geek Squad coming to help them set up their new computer. Why can't I get up this early on a work day?

I would like a prediction that UML scores (a win would be a bit much even for your Karma twisting abilities with players now sick with the flu and more injuries.)

Morning Lodge. Took the kid to the Wild game last night - saw Sweet Lou from the Soo right by our Club seats (Lou Nanne for youngins). Watched the Wild beat the Ducks 5-1. The free tickets came with parking pass for the surface lot right across 7th from the Xcel, sweet for getting back on West 94 to go home while listening to the end of the Gopher win.:D

Was burning DVDs of my peewee photos for the rest of the team this AM and walked out into the living room. There was a coyote trotting along the pond ice right by our shore - so about 100 feet from my picture window. Unfortunately I had just put the camera battery in the charger. By the time I got the battery back in and got back out to the window the coyote was going around the corner of the neighboring house. Later watched it across the pond chasing a Golden up the hill. Took some shots of it across the pond. Now we don't live out in the country - first tier suburb with a freeway right on the other side of our pond (Hwy 62). Still not used to the urban wildlife explosion of late.

Good Morning, Lodge!

Admirals game was fun last night. They won 2-1 in the shootout, and the Robbie Earl Diving Fan Club was in full swing.

Don't know about the car, but my guess is they are sodomizing the owner. :p

yup... got a broken flywagon here... and if you look real closely your circumferential belt next to the timing wheel is starting to crack.

Re: Rep Retirement Thread 130: Revolutions Abound!

We had a guy my senior year at Ferris who we suckered one night. He was from Turkey. I came back one night after a few beers (big surprise there, right?), and he was talking with a friend of mine. My friend mentioned to me that this guy was having a few problems with his ride. My buddy suggested that since we had to go to the store in the morning, he could just ride with us, and we'd drop him off at the NAPA store. No problem. Always happy to help a new guy out.

By the time I had arrived, my friend had diagnosed this kid's main issue: his car was low on blinker fluid. How does that affect a rough-running engine? Well, I explained to this guy that if the blinker fluid gets low, that causes the rest of the engine to be out of balance since it would have to compensate for the low fluid level. The blinkers would also start to dim as well. Major safety issue there. I also asked him if the car was riding a little rough, too, as that was a sign that the air in the tires needed to be cleaned. He mentioned that he thought the shocks needed to be replaced. We disagreed. We told him that rather than spend that kind of money, NAPA probably had some tire air cleaner that would be much cheaper, and would have the same effect. So, in the morning, we would drop him off at NAPA so that he could buy his blinker fluid and tire air cleaner, and we would go do our thing, and we would pick him up about an hour later.

For some reason he didn't talk to us for about a month. Sometimes that's what you get when you help someone out, I guess.

Alright. Let's meet at bootleggers between 9 and 10. Maybe head down there after the gopher game. If you want company watching the game let me know, i'll be bored by puck drop.

That's actually a good idea. MN-WI at Chez Rube. I have to go grocery shopping anyway, so I will pick up some snacks and stuff. We can then do the cab thing.
