Up early (ya!) and thinking about a big breakfast at le diner on the way to work.

Raging noreaster here. 36f, strong wind, rain and sleet mix. Meh, I wish it was 10 degrees colder and we got a foot of snow instead. 
Morning monkies! Back to the gym after 6 days off, feeling much better today. My RHR average for the last week is 58 with consistent lows in the mid 40s. Today will be a good day. 
Having an ice storm here today. Was hoping to get some snow before it changed to a sleety mess, but we got skunked again. Might be an interesting drive home....
Yep, we'd have gotten a snow ass kicking if not for the warm temps. Still, it was enough sleet to delay the pool opening this morning, so no swim for me. BOOOOO!Raging noreaster here. 36f, strong wind, rain and sleet mix. Meh, I wish it was 10 degrees colder and we got a foot of snow instead.
Scoped another ~0.5 miles of trail and flagged it last night in the near dark. Think it will be fun come spring. Based on that hike, the recent rain was not as bad as I thought and our anti-winter weather will likely permit a night cruise this eve. Have done essentially no riding in 2017 so far so I'm excited.
Yep. As a teenager in 1994, and then a couple of years ago as a family at an all inclusive. Preferred the former. It's a beautiful country.
Sipping coffee, wife caught a cold and is working from home today. another day another 150 miles driving the short bus, such the life.
Mornin! 
Wifey went to Cuba 10+ years ago. Loved it. No idea about current state but we hope to return before it's just another massive resort.
Morning Monkeys.
Reading, lots of reading and editing today, ugh. Cold and some clouds here, but nothing exciting. Did get some interesting news yesterday about the little monkey moving back, so that's nice. She still isn't talking to me at the moment, but having her close will be nice.
I have not been to Cuba, but would love to steal a car from there.

Spent a chunk of yesterday at the vet's as my clumsy ass dog decided to fall down the stairs and nearly rip his nail off right before the weekend. Sunday night he was complaining a lot and it was clearly infected by the looks/smell of it. Had to be sedated and fully removed. Thanks, asshole.
In other, possibly good news:
1) I found 2 open positions for senior level product development engineer positions I am looking into and will likely apply to (same company, different site).
2) I have decided (I think) to lift my Jeep come tax refund/bonus season as my last guilt-free hurrah before becoming a dad. Fuck it. Teraflex 3" lift with Fox piggyback shocks and 35" Wrangler MT/Rs. YOLO, amirite?

Meteorologists were calling for 2-4" of snow last night. Woke up to barely a dusting of wet sleet on the car.

linky no worky?
Works for me
this is gonna be for krankette jr's nursery. i don't want it looking like stinkyboy and dirtmcgirk partied with a bunch of german hookers
I wanted to, but the wife kept reading stuff online about massive amounts of overspray. So depending on the color choice, it might be an option.
If its just one room, why not just roll it?
one room for now, but still have a good portion of the home that we never overpainted the basic off-white from when we bought the house (1 other bedroom, upstairs hallway, stairwell, 2 bathrooms, downstairs hallway), and i'm going to be finishing the basement off probably next year. i've already got a ~30lb air compressor, so the only investment would be the sprayer itself.
That a long or short arm kit? Can't you stuff 37s under there with minimal work? Go with 37s!!!
CJSP: you want an hvlp gun with an air source with plenty of volume. The hvlp tip shears/ atomizer the paint. Low overspray.
Honestly not worth it for one typical sized room unless you can borrow the equipment.

Short flex arms to keep the pinion and caster angles closer to stock than they would be otherwise. 3" with 35s is about the most you can go and still keep as close to stock on-road characteristics as possible, and get full articulation, which is what I want.
You might be able to get 37's under there with 3" and a lot of trimming, but that's a lot of extra work and long-term damage (rust on body panels) for little (and unnecessary) gain.
You are better of with 35's and clearance IMO. I never ran anything bigger than a 35" tire, but had friends with inferiority issues that went as big as 44's on a truck ('78 Bronco, actually).
Dude, Hockey puck body lift can solve all of your small tire problems.
you really should be spending money on bikes before the kid. those will be far more useful after s/he arrives
BOOOO. At least you probably won't need to regear with 35s.
i'm assuming this is directed at me. someone else recommended hvlp as well (facebook). how does that compare to lvlp?
i might be able to borrow equipment, but i've got an air compressor that's ~30lbs and 150psi with a regulator.
I don't think size and PSI matters so much as the cfm it can push. I would assume the gun mandates a minimum in order to function properly.
Bikes? What are those?
