I'm just kind of tired. I think I'm getting old.
My wife got me a FitBit. It says I walk about ten miles per day. Something like 20,000 steps.
I don't see how this is accurate.
I should be at work. I think we are chopping silage today.
No one was around the farm after work yesterday.
My wife's car seems to be failing.
It misses when you start it cold.
The antifreeze disappears but there is no discernible leak. After cranking there is pressure in the radiator.
But there is no white steam when I get it started. Instead it smells like raw gas.
So....
It could be a head gasket, but that would mean white smoke.
An injector could be stuck open which would flood the cylinder with gas.
The oil smells like oil. No milky flavor, no gasoline smell. So, nothing past the rings.
It would not start yesterday.
After work I pulled the plugs. Number one spark plug was black with unburned fuel.
The rest were clean and wet.
I cranked and check for spark. All have spark.
Columns of gasoline vapor blew into the air.
I put the plugs back in and it started instantly and now the check engine light is off.
I put Dike Radiator sealer in and drove the car for a half hour.
I'm going to check it this morning.
At work I broke the mower twice. This is a record. People are making fun of me. The supervisor says I need to walk my lawns before mowing. I showed him the chunk of metal and pile of crap I found that didn't go through the mower. He was impressed that I didn't run over that stuff but I think it reinforced his conviction that I need to walk my lawns. Whatever...
At home I broke the disk mower. This was to the tune of $2500 plus.
Perhaps I am just a serial mower destroyer...
In other news, I again succumbed to the temptation to argue with morons on my real Facebook page. Progressives are such utter hate-filled idiots who then accuse you of hate when you argue with them and say all these absolutely horrible things. It is kind of funny. They do not understand irony.
But I get tired of being held to an impossible high misinterpretation of my moral code and then be told that since they don't have a moral code that I can't criticize their imaginary values.
It is only my remaining christian beliefs that keeps me from restoring to violence. They have no self awareness whatsoever.
I now work a the mothership of all stupidity and it wears thin.
I so want to comment on Facebook but I can't. It causes disharmony...
I keep thinking of this joke about a guy in a restroom and the punchline is, "21 years old and you still believe in Leprechauns." but it is an an off color joke and it would not be polite to post in on my blog.
And now I have to go to work...
This Blog does not in any Fathomable way reflect any of the current opinions or beliefs of the institution I used to work for. In fact my former employer has completely disavowed any link or reference to them in this blog.

Theres places I would like to comment and inject a little common sense too but I know I'd be arguing with closed minds and wasting my time.
ReplyDeleteI moderate my blog and unfriend _ssholes on Facebook. I'm too old for their sh_t.
ReplyDeleteI suppose I should just unfriend people. I like it when they post interesting pictures and details of their lives. But I really don't want to know their politics. Mostly because they are totally wrong. Then I think they are idiots.
Deletego to doc. test for b vitamins and d vitamins. i think you are overworked and under absorbing of vitamins.
ReplyDeletejust a guess. also test thyroid function.
My doctor died. I think my kilt wearing substitute doc had a heart attack. I hate going to new Doctors. Plus I have Kaiser from work and I don't really trust them.
DeleteMy wife has purchased vitamins for me. I should take them. I probably should not have told her how much life insurance I have. Now I wonder if they really are vitamins.
I never eat the green jello...
FORGET THE DOC. GO BUY LIQUID b AND LIQUID d. I TAKE THEM BECAUSE I AM NOT ABSORBING PROPERLY SO PILLS ARE NOT AS EFFECTIVE. OFFSPRING GIVES ME A SHOT OF b ONCE PER MONTH.
DeleteTAKE THE VITAMINS YOUR WIFE GOT. \
SORRY ABT CAPS, ERRANT LITTLE FINGER.
JUST TRY IT AND NOTE IF THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR ENERGY LEVELS. IT IS WORTH A TRY.
GOD BLESS YOU WITH HEALTH [AND WEALTH].
I no longer get into debates or conversations on Facebook. Everyone is an expert, especially the idiots.
ReplyDeleteYup, it is the old saying from the beginning of the internet. Arguing online is like competing in the special olympics. Um, you can't say that anymore. I think it means that everyone gets a trophy.
