Alas for Skanky, she is not dead.

Seven of eight done, one 2 ft extension bar destroyed (one end deformed), and number eight is stalled due to a stubborn boot.

Time for lunch and lots of coffee.

This is a good lesson in the time-value of money. If you had gone to Precision Tune or some other like place, you would've paid $100 for them to do this. Now you're on your second day, have done 7 of eight, and the time you've spent is likely worth far more than the $100 you saved.

Imho, of course. You might actually like frustrating yourself like this.

[The Mad Monk]

Not really.

Service stations in New Jersey were quoting me ~$200 for the job, and I've spent maybe six hours doing the work, not counting breaks.

Besides, I enjoy learning new skills.

How long have you been waiting to post that?

Since before the lighting of the stars and the scarring of the moon.

Dear John,

Your reply fit me to a T, but I am afraid that I love another. We can never be.

Hugs and kisses,

Oh, I went to your site (lpeter.org). Pretty good, but I think you're wrong about the end of Endymion. Since Aenea was supposed to be crucified at the hands of the ruling establishment, her death had to be pretty nasty and "broadcast" somehow. Sorta like Jesus and the Gospels, but more up-to-date.

[The Mad Monk]

Done, and nothing has exploded yet!

[JohnT]

Congratulations...

But just wait until you start the car.

I take it something went wrong?

IMHO, the fate element in the plot defies belief. Simmons forces to players to act out of character in order to achieve whatever symbolism/allegory it is that he wants. Aenea's choices are not justified.

[The Mad Monk]

Not yet.

Hmmm. Wet weather performance is starting to suffer again; I think I will just do the wires this time around.
