Working the point of self destruction isn't so good. But in your case there was a pressing need. Take it easy and heal up, smalls.

All the up and down of building the floor in the Renault resulted in sore knees. Like smallfoot, I kept going. The left knee was the sorest so I favored the right leg. Now that has been aching for a week. And, I've got umpty hump million leaves to blow out of my overtreed yard. Snow due in a few days so not much time. Been working as the pain allows.
Got myself banned on Facebook. All I said is women are crazy. I hope I don't get banned here for that.
So this weekend I wrote a poem.

Yeah, I wasn't gonna mention the knees... When I tried to get my freshly milled lumber into my cramped kiln, I found that 12'6" boards don't fit in one 12'3" long... Crawling needs knee pads anymore!

Were you quoting George Carlen's famous line? "Men are stupid, and women are crazy. Women are crazy, because men are stupid."
I need to get banned from FB.

The thing about a '39 Ford pick-up is that that ugly grille kinda' grows on ya' after a while.

Not taking anything too seriously.

Skip, I was misquoting a song title: God is great, beer is good, people are crazy. Changed it to women are crazy.

Bet if I said men are crazy I wouldn't have been banned.

Been banned a few times for simple stuff like that. Trying to get around their algorithms.

Been averaging 3 days on 30 off (FB pokie) for the last year.....they got my number....it's a shame you get censored for saying something true and try to back it up with proof and get banned.....rant over for now. (please don't ban me for this...) back to more important stuff like CARS!

bad patient , lightning, women,, sounds like the makings of a no1 country song there guys !!!

for better driveability ( my led foot ) I recently acquired a Avanti rear sway bar + mounts etc for my Lark,

yesterdays mission making some droppers for the lower mounts off the spring plate .. using internet pics some imagineering and a bit of 2" x 1/4" angle i came up with these,,,

i just need to make round some large square washers, then ready for bolting in ...

and for you eagle eyes ,, the vertical yukkyness in front of the shock - not my work, i can see a little validity for low end protection and shouldve tidyed it up ... but left that in favor of assembling before days end
