Laid-back, easy going guy until my passions are aroused. I've been here 3 other times... I keep trying to get it right, I guess. lol

Today I took my car in for service. I had my 'crankshaft position sensor' replaced. They told me yesterday it needed to be replaced. So I went online to see just what its' function is and how much it should cost. Prices went from $27.00 to $98.00. I paid $48.00 for mine. I found out that it serves the same purpose as a fuel filter on my first car, a 1964 Chevy Impala SS. The difference now is that it runs through a bunch of computerized circuits to do the same job. When I estimate how much something will cost, I go by the 10x rule: Whatever something cost when I was growing up, it's generally 10 times more today. The fuel line filter cost me $5.00 in 1975. The sensor today cost me $48.00 That's about right. ~ | ||

In the time honored tradition of my mother, I'm shopping for shorts when it's 30 degrees outside. You may think that's funny, but there are deals to be made shopping off season. ~ | ||||||

When someone tells me patience is a virtue, I tell "That's too bad... I lost my virtue at age 13." ![]() | ||

Nothing starts your day off reflectively like checking your lotto numbers... and seeing that although you hit two numbers, you were one number off the other four numbers, which would have won you over $12,000,000.00. ~ | ||||||

When I was a kid, there was a fad of eating chocolate covered insects, like ants and grasshoppers. What goes around comes around and they're trendy again. I'll try anything once, so bring 'em on! ![]() | ||

... wouldn't it be funny to have everything you say taken seriously? Like - kiss my ass, or eat shit. Then again, maybe not. ~ | ||||||

I was going to tell a joke about of the two forms of suicide, a gun was quicker than marriage, but I decided it was in bad taste. It might also be seen as my promoting suicide, which I would never be in favor of. ~ | ||

I'm doing some thinking about what kind of inane photo I'm going to post on Facebook. Like everyone else, my ego needs stroking by putting up pictures of silly things to have people look at them and say: "Ooh, that's fabulous, well done!" Even if it's nothing more than a shelf I've painted. There are lots of needy people out there, sadly. ~ | ||
