Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

Found my ghost.  Short on the one wire I didn't change.  Figures.  Boo on the original owner not fusing anything.  WTF.  Almost like it was a Ski Doo or somethin'

What's the wire for?
Electricity to travel on is my guess.

That is the best part.  Nothing. Something used to be connected to it.  Was tucked up into the run for the bars so when I cleaned up the wiring I thought it ran somewhere.  Doh.gif

Wonder if it was OEM, or added for something aftermarket. Either way that's kinda funny, previous owner: "ya I'll just tuck it up right here with a bit of electrical tape around the end and call it good."

Not sure if i posted but in headed to Witchita, Ks tomorrow morning. Is there anything i "cant miss"? Any good places for lunch?

Jimmy's Eggs is a pretty good place (breakfast & Such), also Mcallisters has great sandwhiches and tasty tea. Bei Wei is a really good Chinese place if you catch them late enough they're open around ~2, oh yeah Hog Wild has some pretty good BBQ too.

 

Why are you headed to Wichita?

Really just to go. Going to a place that sells higher quality groceries than Walmart. I've never been out there so I thought why not.

Maybe you should have a gone a direction different than Wichita then.  If you thought Fargo was desolate or uncultured...

I was never in Fargo....

What do you guys think? It will be done in a texture similar to suede.

If you really WANT to do it, do it, but I think yucky.

 

Might just go for something similar to this:

 

Lamborghini-Gallardo_Nera_2007_1600x1200

 

But not really feeling the white, so might go for my favorite with no leather tho :

2006-Lamborghini-Murcielago-LP640-Interi

 

This works.

If it's a lambo it works for me.

 

 

While I like Lamborghini, I can't help but laugh when I see the same interior pieces in an Audi or VW.  You'll never see a Ferrari with Fiat parts in it.

Good point. When I rented the Aston it had a little Ford flava too.

I have been getting a ton of mild exercise. Just pushing it a bit.

But I still have extreme bouts of pain. Yesterday was bad this morning was too.

The worst is the horrible exhaustion. I slept for almost 12 hours. I needed ibuprofen but it didn't help. Up for 3 hours then asleep for about 45 min, I couldn't hold off the sleepiness. Coffee or caffeine doesn't work. Rx stay awake pills barely work. Just barely. And on bad days I drink a shit load of booze and take ibuprofen just to help me walk.

I put back on 30 of the 80 pounds or more I lost but I am half as strong. I can barely get off the couch at times and sometimes ask for help opening jars.

Can't even work a knife properly some days.

And even though I got my A1C down a bit I am put on a newer stronger beetus med because the metformin made me more sleepy, staying on the BP med, and a new cholesterol medicine.

MF'er, I ate at 10PM (and a pretty decent meal), I've been speaking to customers for 2 hours and now I'm starving. Time to bust out a yogurt. I blame yesterday's workout for my hunger

These 2 customers couldn't have been timed better though. So it's worth spending time discussing the box designs :)

Just like the old alarm system on my car. Let's just add some jumpers on the plug and call it a day,

If the shipping companies deliver on time, I should be getting new brake pads and brake levers and some old-school cantilever brakes this week. Along with my Hazet torque wrench.
