How about this for a diverse morning?

Woke up to screaming littlest00.
Helped get the wife and kids off to school/work
Started a loaf of bread in the bread machine
Installed windows 10 on my streaming computer, involving some pretty creative maneuvers due to no hard drive space on this little device.
About to change oil/rotate tires on the Ford pieceofs**t
Later, Mrs. 00's friend is coming over to borrow my meat grinder and meat slicer, so I'll have to show her how to work those.
Then, and only then, go to work

I didn't know HI had universal care either. Just them and MA then? I'd be cool with that instead of the whims of whatever company I work for.

Is this the new slang term in your swingers' neighborhood?
 
So...these fun little adventures I run into...rotating tires on the ford pieceofs**t, do the X pattern, putting on the lug nuts, and notice the front wheel won't turn.

Well, I realized that the last time they were off the car was when I got tires replaced a few months ago. I specifically asked them to use the little stick on wheel weights, since the last time, the other place used the steel clamp-on weights on my aluminum wheels, and a little galvanic corrosion gets into the bead and I got a slow leak on my tire. Problem is, on the fronts, there's very little clearance between the brake caliper and the rim, so they had to use a bunch of small weights rather than a few larger ones so that there would be clearance. On the backs, there's drum brakes, so no such issue, so they used the larger ones...except when you rotate tires, you put the front wheels on the back and the back on the front, so yeah....

So, I guess I will drop off my car at the tire place again and ask them to re-balance the rears using the smaller weights. Already called to make an appointment, so they know what's up.

:rolleyes:
 
I was talking about what I got this morning.

I wonder what the record is in this thread? It seems like 4 posts in a row is usually the most I see. I may have to set a record tonight while y'all are asleep.

See, but that is not a natural multi post. I almost did 5 just to do it, then realized that would be contrived.
