FTR the garage floor is level, I guess my camera was crooked.
Is it bad that I have my Raptor, SHO, R, and 7 in the garage and the wife's car is outside under the porte-cochère

This begs the question, do you also have 10,000 dollars worth of tools in a massive tool chest off on the side of the garage, so you can fix anything possibly wrong with your cars/trucks, and do stuff for friends who are willing to pay?

I do have a metric *** ton of take off parts from these cars. I've kept every part I've used and every part I've used and removed to replace with another part. Not to mention the parts that aren't even installed yet.

The Legacy TMS Lady
Sucks when you get stuck good like that. Had that happen to me and my ex a long, long time ago. Broke 2 chains and a cable before it came up out of the hole. And that was a Toyota sittin on 38's! I really need a vacation!Storm went about a mile or two west of us. I saw a few trees and branches down near us, but north minneapolis got hit with the worst of it. The storm was crazy though. The rain was blowing from every which direction and I I could hear a gusting sound from inside the house even though the trees were completely still. 
Freaked me out enough to stay inside for most of this one.

Though they are metric they have worked on Honda's, Suzuki's, 442, Land Cruisers, F150, Lotus, Saturns, GMC, AMC, Chrysler and Bullitt. And numerous small engines in between. Only needed to add a few pieces & a torque wrench along the way, and never bought any sae. I splurged in the 80's and bought an air ratchet for taking the cam towers off the Lotus for changing shims/adjusting valves. Other than that its a pretty basic set and has done the job.
If those wrenches could talk, they could tell you a lot of bull **** (and teach some cuss words)! Those tools made the self taught mechanic I am today. I am not afraid!

It is 220. Max lifting weight is 9,000 lbs but there are limitations based on wheelbase. If the wheelbase is say 90" or less then you can only lift 50% of that 9,000 lbs. If its 90"-100" then you can lift 75% and so forth. In other words you can't just plop 9,000 lbs. in the center of one runway and lift. The runways apparently won't support that.

Looks like Janis came back to suck up some of her stuff.
Joplin in for More Severe Weather, Possible Tornadoes
May 23, 2011
The tornado traveled 6 miles from the west side of the city to the southeast portion. The southern edge of the city was the hardest hit. The tornado ranged from half a mile to three-quarters of a mile in width. While the exact strength of the storm is yet to be determined, it could be upwards of an EF4.
According to Kathy Dennis of the American Red Cross, "75% of the town is virtually gone."
