Minor Confession Thread

In reply to Dieselboss15 :

I mean probably. But that's effort and I haven't been in that big of a hurry to get rid of it even though I have no reason to keep it.

In reply to Daylan C (Forum Supporter) :

I'll trade you some bolts for your Trans Am.

I'm pretty sure that sacrilegious statement could get you encased in Carbonite in some areas of the universe.

I read that as "before Ham".

I just bought a serpentine belt from Rock Auto and there is box to note and fill in when checking out;  where did you hear about us".

I imagine nobody reads these so I entered;  "From Wally on the Grassroots Motorsports Forum". 

Seemed kinda funny at the time. 

In reply to Datsun310Guy :

That's where you're supposed to put the discount code though.

In reply to Daylan C (Forum Supporter) :

That makes it even funnier.

It was a $12 belt - I quit looking for the discount thread at page 9.   

In reply to Datsun310Guy :

I will let you know if I get a commission check 

Wife and I just watched the social dilemma on Netflix, holy crap that's crazy. I'm glad this site is my only social media, and we've held our ground on our kids from getting on social media

Every time I see a post by cmcgregor , I read it as “cmc gregor” instead of “c mcgregor”, for some reason.

On Instagram I follow Glacier National Park and I always see it as "Glacier Nips".

Hmm, maybe it is...

The only reason I haven't sold my Trans Am is that I don't know where the bolts to put the axle back in are and I can't move it until I find them and put it back together. Been like that for 2 years now.

Uh oh.   Sounds like you might as well junk it.  

Challenge car fodder anyone?   I have $50.

LOL

It's cmcgregor, of course. What could be more clear than that? 

My name is not Gregor and I don't drive in the Camaro Mustang Challenge or have anything to do with the Chicago Music College or the Carnegie Moscow Center and I'm certainly not a Command Master Chief.

It's c mcgregor. My name's Collin.

Kumhousa is the Kumho website.  That is not what I read...

Some nights at the firehouse you just say, "Berk it. Should we even bother making the vegetables?"

Who knew my house is like a firehouse

My Marine buddies and I threw a beach party after our first deployment to Iraq. Supposed to be carne asada tacos, chips, guacamole, etc.. What really happened was we all hung out around the grill drinking beer (Pepsi in my case) and ate the carne straight off the grill. The five of us accounted for a full ten pounds of marinated beef. Tacos? Nah...

My confession of the day- 

I'm 37 years old, and can still reliably put away a large pizza on my own.

I just licked Pop-Tart crumbs off the top of my kid's head.

I just need to write this menu down in it's entirety somewhere so I can screen shot it instead of mishmash texts.

Chocolate chip cookies, coconut macaroons, banana bread, sugar cookies so the kids could decorate them, the realtor brought us a homemade apple pie, gingerbread cookies from someone else, Boston cream pie for SWMBO mom birthday, Italian cream cake left from Thanksgiving, someone didn't know I baked so she bought cupcakes and a cookie tray.

Then there's the actual meal. 8.6lb 4 bone prime rib, 18 hours sous vide, finish in smoker. Twice baked potatoes, floury baps, cranberry Jello salad, regular salad because for some reason I have 5 heads of lettuce, I have a bunch of asparagus and crab meat that needs eaten or thrown away so something there, and a Spinach bacon salad. 

Sparkling cider, 3 or 4 local wines, and I'm breaking open an 8 year old Double Bastard. 

There are 6 of us. Ages 5, 12, 31, 33, 66, 75. 

I guess we're getting diabetes for Xmas. 

Part of the reason i've stalled on my GTI is that 1.8l is too big and clunky of an engine for a sub-2000lb car and it would be nice if 1500s were easier to find in my part of the country.
