There is a bright yellow or orange thing in the sky. I am very afraid. I guess I must appease it with the lawnmower.
so you are going to try brown capping all day again?
almost got hit by some fvcking moron who made an illegal pass over the double yellow lines in order to run a red light. she was apparently in a very big hurry to get to church. 
No, because that would be an excellent life decision.
Not sure what happened last night, but I went to bed earlier and feel more tired today? huh?
Apparently the sun was also in super bright mode at 6am, as I woke up and immediately panicked thinking that I had slept in. But no, it was just the normal waking up an hour before the alarm goes off routine.
Lets see how much I can get accomplished today.

drippy out today. thinking about riding or trailwork (or both) tomorrow, depending on tstorm situation.
started the day off with a fight with my wife. 
Not a good way to start the day.
At least it's sunny and cool out.

moved a bit slow this morning. only got to drink a cup of coffee before hitting the road at 4. nice break at 6:30 between runs. Sausage and eggs at Nations
Beautiful this morning, severe weather rolling in after work. Perfect. I wish I got up earlier and I'd ride before work.

It probably had just enough strength to drag it's mangled carcass away to die a slow horrible death.
Try it now.

Hmmm... interesting theory. I'd like to subscribe to your newsletter.
Morning Monkeys.
Tonight is opening night of the weekly cruise in and it looks like it should be raining, yay Portland. Got some work to do, but nothing exciting. I need a new welder.

I picked up a digital Tweeco Fabricator earlier in the year after using a friends new in years but old school technology Lincoln. I was blown away by how much better the Tweeco performed. My welds went from highly questionable to pretty darn good.
I'm using an old Chicago Electric MIG 100 with inconsistent feed rates that my almost brother-in-law gave me. It is almost more trouble than it is worth. I would love a simple Lincoln 140 with a bottle, but I have found other needs for that money. All I am doing is welding up a new bash guard for the little monkeys quad. 1/8 plate steel, it's ghetto but should hold up if I can get a decent bead on the thing.
I don't do enough or have a shop with proper power but will get something a little nicer for the real projects.
<edit> Oh wow, the Tweeco Fabricator 141 is less than $600. Is that what you are using? I've never heard of them.

Trying, but nothing is happening.
This is me with the Harbor Freight welder. Good thing they sell grinders, too.
Yup. It is a quality unit too, not some harbor freight POS. I wanted a 181 but they were impossible to find. I talked to a guy who works at the local welding shop and he said that all the welders there bought Tweecos for their personal use.I'm using an old Chicago Electric MIG 100 with inconsistent feed rates that my almost brother-in-law gave me.

Thank you, sir. I think I found a new toy to add to the list. I would never have bought this POS I have, I was going to get either a Lincoln or Hobart 140, but looking at the specs it looks like a solid rig. It looks like they carry them at a shop down the street, I'll go have a look at lunch.
The good news I guess is that the day isn't likely to get any shittier. 
Afternoon

Haven't been on here much lately. Doesn't look like I have missed much.

'squeeb; if that means you had to put down the pup ... sorry man. RIP good dawg.
Jesus waits for no one.almost got hit by some fvcking moron who made an illegal pass over the double yellow lines in order to run a red light. she was apparently in a very big hurry to get to church.
So those damned blue-collar Tweecos rule this town?
You would have made a great SS camp guard. Just following orders.My condolences, 'squeeb.
With regard to the alternate theories of prairie dog disappearance: no matter. Out of sight, out of mind.
Sorry, Pesqueeb.
i hope this was on the way to/from the bong shed
While having a grape sized cyst removed from my back I passed out in the doctors office, twice.
Sorry about your friend Squeeb.
Sorry about your friend Squeeb.
Oh Squeeb, so sorry. Pups are family.
Fights with spouses just suck. I've been trying the "I don't want to talk about it... ever." and hoping it will blow over before it starts. So far so good!
In other news, I would like to go run and bike some steam off please!
