I guess USPS gotta do what USPS gotta do. Passed right over me in Georgia.
Getting there. Palmetto is hour away.
These are my new charger leads. XT60 & EC5. Least they made it from Miami

I can care less if it's triangle shape & they use UFOs to get it here. Just get it here.
Maybe they did use a UFO 🤔 Never showed departed Miami. Arrived at Miami then POOF arrived at Atlanta!

Nashua is 2 towns over from me 😄

I saw a guy check beer out the window 100 feet behind a police car tgst had someone pulled over. Too drunk or dump to figure out the cop is preoccupied. 🤣
Ya lazy bum, just bend one the other direction in your vice, sheesh. 🤣
 
Yeah, I don't even use the smart part of my smart tv.
Try finding a "dumb" tv these days!
Crazy!

I guess I'll carry on with a rant...
I got my Hocus Focus all buttoned up and on the floor. Used trans installed and ready to start car, fill fluid, test drive...
I open the garage door, sit down in the drivers seat and turn the key on.
I get the gauges clicking and lights flashing, fuel injection reached proper pressure and stopped... yay! Ready to turn key... right???
CLICK!!!
And out comes the magic smoke from my 270k mile starter.
This is extra annoying since I had the starter unbolted from the car and in my hands a few hours earlier. The intake manifold is on top of the starter so I took the whole damned thing apart... again.
Here's the super best part...
From parts stores:
New starter $230+$10 core charge,
Reman starter $209 (why only $20 difference?)
Now the kicker...
Ebay:
$35.00
It will be here next week.

Um, why have you been looking at other guys' junk?

My eyes are up here, pal!!!

:hehe:
After seeing Rocco's junk, I no longer watch porn with dudes in it due to insecurity/jealousy issues.🤣
 
I was just about to charge up some batteries for my mini Infraction 3s so my son had a road basher to run with my Infraction 6s. Removed the body and found this mess. I forgot it was in this state. Oh well, time to put it back together. Let's see what's missing.

Picture me slowly putting the lid back on and backing away. Yup, I guess I'll be running the Typhon today 🤣

I'm frantically looking through my spare parts now. Damn it.
Ahh. Grab one out of another kit for now. Or hack up a pencil and jam in there 🤣
