    Electricians?

    It should go something like this..

    First off I think allowing those here illegally to stay its bullsheet. Not to mention a slap in the face to everyone who had gone the US immigration and citizenship route legally. And don't give me that we need the cheep labor crap-ola, if your business needs cheep labor you sponsor the...

    00 350 MAG MPI SN 0L671793, seems to run hot 180 to 190 deg.(according to the gage). I plan on checking the engine temp with a IR thermometer to verify gage accuracy. I assume I want to check the temp on the thermostat housing next to the temp sending unit to get the most accurate comparison...

    Wally World on wellfair day.......

    Man there's got to be a better way. Seeing the kind of food some of the food stamp spenders choose to spend the resources on blows my mind. On one end they buy the sugar waters, candy coated cereals and empty calorie snack crap. The other extrema is top shelf, brand name cuts of beef, pork and...

    Thoughts of a mis-spent youth...

    Heard Styx playing Lady on the radio today, it took me back to the late 70's. I recall seeing them at a High School Auditorium in Waukegan Ill. Paid $3.00 for the ticket, that was before they made it big. Last concert I attended cost me $110.00 for admission.......... my, my, how times have changed.
