    No unimportant jobs- school bus driver

    I thought it was a positive story myself. I knew a retired airline pilot who was a bailiff at a local court. He just wanted something to do that would get him out of the house. He was fun to work with.

    Symptoms of dirty pistons?

    Thanks Jetman! It is now my homework assignment. Off topic, but do you still have your Glasair TD? I imagine that landing and takeoff speeds are kind of fast? Do you 3 point or wheel land your Glasair? I never did fly the Glasair series of airplanes, but did once get a ride in an O-320 powered...

    Symptoms of dirty pistons?

    Was this a GM LS series engine? Sounds like an interesting repair. I think I read here on BITOG about an updated valve cover for the LS engine that improved the PCV system? Do you have a link that you can point me to that describes what you did to correct the oil consumption?

    Broken clavicle / collar bone

    I had a clavicle fracture when I was a teenager a LONG time ago. My fracture was pretty clean and simple and just required six to eight weeks in a sling to recover. The pain was minimal and I healed with no surgery required. I was lucky and young. If it happened now, it would probably be a much...

    Societal addiction to phones

    That is neat! I remember things being somewhat similar growing up. Things really are different now. Your story really punctuated that fact. Thanks for the sharing that.

    Some thoughts about non-Euro Oil in my Euro car.

    That is a very interesting comparison of different criteria for different oil standards or goals.

    Volvo dealer used abrasive wheel to clean engine sump

    No! It’s an in-line six. Undoubtably used to be a nice machine. I cringe looking at this..

    Brake pad errosion?

    After moving to NH from SoCal, I keep finding my brakes looking like yours at least every two years. I just had the parking brake shoes come apart and my first brake line burst on the Subaru Outback. I am starting to think things rust faster here, than in Buffalo..

    Tires on Porsche Macan

    I visited Stowe a couple of winters ago. It is a very nice place but if you don’t have winter tires, your travels will be unnecessarily exciting.

    Pulled the trigger, last day at work will be 4/11/25!

    Cujet, I wondered how your retirement is going? I worked in general aviation my entire adult working life. While I was working, I had an airplane that I used to commute to work. Fly to work to fly. Fly home from work. Fly on my time off for fun. Retired burnt out. Now as long as I don’t buy an...

    What to get Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez as a wedding gift?

    Yes, she was beautiful once, but tacky is a well chosen word to describe how she looks now. She doesn't leave much to the imagination.

    Bitcoin/Crypto Currency IRA

    I thought the idea of cryptocurrency was keeping the government from knowing about what you have, what you buy and what you sell?

    What to get Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez as a wedding gift?

    She really does need a better plastic surgeon. Or, perhaps lay off the repeated applications of plastic injections.

    What to get Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez as a wedding gift?

    I tell all my friends that there is a toaster in it for them when they get married. They get a toaster each time they get married. One friend of mine has been given three toasters from me since he has been married three times since I have known him..:LOL:
