Greg let me know that 9th Avenue got broken into yesterday. So I drove by to check it out.
Why are Christmas Light such POS?
Professional Carwashing & Detailing Magazine Article about this Eric Wilson guy?
This is a link to the pdf version. This is a great read if you missed it in the magazine and like this Eric guy. It was a real life written interview!
So I have a Receding Hair Line! So What! I’m NOT Growing a Ponytail!
Look they can still Build Houses!
Broken Air Compressor?
I finally decided to figure out what was wrong with my air compressor pump. The wheel would just spin freely and not do anything else. When I removed the top the pistons? wouldn’t move when I pushed on them. I would guess that is not good! It was also dry and gummy. But who knows what it is suppose to look like?
I removed the wheel thing (technical term) I guess this piece is fine? But I believe I spotted the problem.
Looks like something broke in the compressor pump? 🙂 Looks like maybe the pistons seized up and the wheel thing ripped all the crap apart! But it looks like I have all the pieces and I can easily fix this with some glue!
I forgot to tell you the way to get this pump apart is to take all the screws out them hit it with a rubber mallet. At least it worked for me. The 2nd picture looks like the piston actually broke/cracked then the whole pump blew up? Maybe?
But I really can’t decide if the pump just didn’t have enough oil? Maybe that caused all the problem? I checked with the dip stick and it didn’t register, that is bad. So the bottom line is I figured out what the problem was with my Dad’s broken air compressor and with a little glue I will be able to get this old green SpeedAire back as good as new!
Grainger is Full of Something?
Why does a $26 LED bulb have no “alternative products”? Incandescent bulbs have “alternative products” can you guess some of them?
I Know High Quality!
When I want high quality tools there is only one place to go….. Dollar Tree! I want to make a new face plate for my Hamilton ACW-5 because I don’t want to give any more of my money to Hamilton. So I purchased the fine tape measure today. I love the Warning “Always wear protective which complies with current ansi standards”. WHY?
“Did Your Doctor Say Salt Was Okay?”
Today I purchased a double Big Jack artery clogger with no green crap and extra mayonnaise. I went through the drive through because I don’t want any exercise getting my food! I asked for salt for my fries (which I hope they use trans fat…). The drive through lady said “Did your doctor say salt was okay?” Actually my doctor probably said no double Big Jack before salt but that’s just me.
When Your GPS Device Tries to KILL!
The plan was to donate some stuff to a different thrift store near my car wash so I programed it into my gps. Well, the gps took me a scary way past “D&W Convenience Store” that just started selling “Soulfood”. But later down the road I saw another even scarier sign: “Vote Democratic”! I have never seen one of these. It hurt my eyes then someone gave me a check…. sweet! Next I drove by the best business plan ever! A Package Store called “Package Store” that also does “Budget Tax Returns” for $39.00! Who isn’t looking for a budget tax return?
When I was in the thrift store I found a real treasure! The original Reeboxs in the best color! While driving away I spotted a rent to own place that buys gold and sells rims! Yes! The third picture is the owners car I guess? I was hungry and brave so I went in Hardees, which didn’t want to be out done, so they had scary people and a bald spare tire randomly in the dining area?
