Yes I spent all day outside in 25 degrees. It’s college playoff time! Having a lot of fun watching my buddy’s son make history for his D2 team. They are 2 rounds in heading for the quarterfinals!

The Datsun officially fired, but I had to build my own harness and bypass everything: There’s something that’s making it electrically dead, zero power anywhere. Likely the Ammeter or a harness someone disconnected. Got out the wiring diagram for weekend reading. RTFM and all that.

It should infuriate everyone that the man "negotiating" with Russia on behalf of ALL of us AND Ukraine is a real estate agent with no experience or qualifications: He paid for a ham sandwich once for Trump. That's it.

Oh the joys of dog companions. Chonk will be up at the family farm in WV. He absolutely loves chasing the cows, rolling in their poop and running through the chicken coops. That caused his other baths. I generally throw him in the pond there and we call him clean enough.

Since I’m commenting on AI I should say I bought Google in July at 176. I’m not getting out, I’m actually buying in week over week at this point. I do believe there’s a VERY significant correction coming in AI.

It’s genuinely sad that a person with this level of mental illness doesn’t have a single person that loves them enough to step in.

Hell or high water this car is going to run and drive tomorrow. It was pretty much free but now I’ve got 75 hours in it, it will be a mechanically perfect giveaway. I was going to use it to let some young ‘uns learn to race. Hopefully we’ll get a few laps in. It has the OEM roll bar.
