Morning gs. The last time I was at the Corvette Museum there was a private car museum across the street. I think the admission was $5. Well worth it.

I remember doing a transmission swap in a freezing rain with a tarp laying over the hood and wet wind blowing like a leaf blower under the car. I couldn't feel the bolts I was turning with my fingers. Tools were ice cold and wet. Clothes were wet. It was miserable. I started on Friday night and drove the car to work on Monday. Poverty was a major contributor, and youth was the most valuable tool for that fun filled weekend.

I tried 20 ways to Sunday to save an internet pic and then try to post it on a forum and it always says not and valid pic.

When I click on it on my computer it comes up but posting it to a forum it is a no go.



Windows 7 was an easy click and save and it saved pictures from the internet.



I’m going to stick this $700 computer back in the box and return it to Sam’s club.



I’ll have a friend build me a new windows 7 computer that actually works.
Getting Windows 10 is like getting a new phone
You have to find the correct apps that do what you want.
Going through this now at work

I went from cold and frozen cars coming to me thawing out on my head

Standing in a warm plant going to the machines that need repair, still warm
Like yesterday an exhaust blower motor on zone 2 of our oven froze up -pun intended- and my partner and I had to swap it out. It is on top of the oven of course and the oven runs at 550F, took and hour or so
Still beats freezing outside!
