Which means I have to hurry and finish the ceiling insulation in the garage so I can pull Bullitt back in to its stall.

That would be War!

VO spiked to $31 a half gallon from $26. 25% tax hike.
VO was my drink since the 80's but on a fixed income I had to try others. I used to find it at Costco in Cali for $22 (which made it worth a trip) but they dropped VO and only carry 7 - which I don't like.

I tried CC - very smooth but no flavor, McNaughton's which is pretty smooth but no flavor, and settled on Canadian Mist - which I actually like because it's smooth with flavor. Reg price is $23 but often on sale to $20. But since the doc's said radiation would likely irritate my esophagus and therefore straight whisky would be a no no, I thought I'd splurge and get a half of VO before they fire up the nuclear reactor. lol

So I knew going in what I was going to pay. But now I'm sizzling because of the chipmunks and therefore stewing that I paid the State of Oregon $31 for $23 whisky.



But now that I got that out of my system, it is nice to sip some VO again. lol
Time to start up your own Whiskey business!

Gotta get the construction supplies/wood out of the 2nd stall of the garage stat!! Or make my own traps.
Get cats! Or get an old car and rig it as a bomb and blow it when they get in there...

This is a quick 42 second video I took from the window last night. It doesn't really show how bright it was but it was just non-stop. Just click on it and it will take you to my photobucket video

But can the 5.8 handle the power level of the 5.4? The 5.4 had advantages of thicker walls and lower red line.

We really need to know what broke, to find out. Doesn't look like the 5.4 or 5.8 has forged rods like the 4.6 did. I wonder if the extra displacement caused a bit too much stress on them.

Another warm one here! Supposed to get some thunderstorms coming in tonight that will drop the temps about 20 degrees. At one point on the drive home the car said 96*. This pic is from when I got home.

Just read where Japanese women have lost their long held title to longevity to Hong Kong women.

Researchers believed the healthy Japanese diet was a major factor in people living longer there.
Now perhaps they will need to look at the diet in Hong Kong which is principally Cantonese cuisine which includes lots of seafood and rice but also chicken feet.
So there it is. The key to longevity is eating lots of chicken feet.

I wouldn't worry about it....Just some guys trying desperately to make a name for themselves and tweaking as hard as they can....likely a tuning issue caused the boom. If you start seeing multiple cases then it's time to worry...

If you were Bloomberg you wouldn't notice because you would have your head shoved so far up your own *** that you wouldn't notice anything going on around you

It went on for about an hour too. It almost looks like I speeded up the video but that was real time and that was just a small part of the sky I was focused on. I really have never seen anything like it before, it was crazy.
