I have never been shot by a t shirt cannon.

I like cars & motorcycles & tabletop RPGs.

Apparently I can officiate weddings???

Or, if you prefer,

Got a little treat in my roll of quarters.

Installed new shift boot for console deleted NA Miata. Time to see if the new boot, which is 1.8" longer than the original, stays under the carpet while I row through the gears.

...1949 Comet's first prototype flew (G-5-1)

What a day in aviation history.
All linked together indeed.

I haven't had a full riding season since I got her in 2017, but every year she runs better. Adjusted the electronic ignition, did an oil change, new plug, and a leaner main, and she hit 90 Royal Enfield mph effortlessly (dunno what that is in real mph.) Hot AF today. I feel like a hot pocket.

Adjusted valves, adjusted timing, re-jetted carb, and she's running better than she has in years.

Rocker oil feed line broke.

(Was only cracked when I caught it, so the top end was still getting oil, but so was the frame, my pants, etc.)

Pushed the bike for an hour to my garage. Safe and sound!

Got a new helmet. Fritz got a new toy.

The helmet was in a bag in a backpack in a box, like a weird children's song. I don't know if that's normal. I haven't bought a new helmet in awhile.

Holy shit I just remembered there was an X-Files collectable card game in the '90s. Highlander, too. The early CCG boom was a magical time. A cambrian explosion of nerdiness.

Tired: ska covers.

Wired: shoegaze covers.

She started on the second kick. Not bad for a 22 year old bike made with 70 year old technology.

Not only did I put the top down in the Miata today, but it's motorcycle season.
