NEMOC Random BS Thread

Cyclocross race in Londonderry, NH on the 17th. Apparently I'm the Communications Director for it now. We were at the course this past weekend fixing hurricane and logging damage, this weekend we're putting up stakes and next Friday we'll be taping it. I did a couple of laps around, granted without front brakes and on road tires, but it should be fun.
 
Why? Why do people repeat this drivel? What's he gonna do? Put it in a sleep tank that he can just drink from at 3:00 in the morning holding a screaming baby while fighting weeks of sleep deprivation?

/pet peeve

they realize that I'm secretly a laptop battery in human form. As long as I can get a charge going, I'm good.
 
Hey Sean:

oh, I have no delusions. I think the Oatmeal has it right

Whats up gang, I got hit hard from the storm to the point where two trees in front fell down piece at a time, like half of one then couple of hr later the next one big chunk then the first one remaining half then the second one finally went down taking front lawn and right side neighbors lawn too .... then waited till friday for DPW to clean it up and power came friday morning. House was shaking like a $ bill hooker ... thought would end up on street homeless the next morning lol.
Job had the generator running so only tuesday stayed home and worked the rest of the week ... yeah get that paper.

Good luck with the house Mark !!!!

Lets see how bad the snow storm will turn out ....
 
Morning All.

Don't worry, kids have their upsides as well.

Cool day here in Perdido Key. A balmy 53 right now. Part of a storm rolling thru FL. Luckily we got only the side of it, hardly any rain.

Ordered some PlastiDip, will try my hand at blacking out a few things.
 
morning all...still have the msm on the road, looks like a nice mild weekend coming up! drove top down to the polls yesterday...a bit chilly, but not bad!

whoa! they must have changed to the winter blend? my mileage dropped 2.2 mpg?

oh and on the kid thing, more ups than downs...if i could go back i'd do it all the same. nothing like having adult children that can now help you! ;)

Oh definitely, don't get me wrong. But some days when you're slogging through the trenches, it's very, VERY difficult to see the forest through all the trees.
 
Found a really cool pic of my grandfather from 1968 that I thought I'd share with my NEMOC family.

1968 with a Thompson, while he was a detective. How cool is that?
 
Nice Phen.

Hang in there Andrew.

Morning all. How's Nepoc land today? For those in the NE, how's that NorEaster going to pan out? looks like more flooding along the coast?
 
Nothing we can't get pass by now , NorEaster was easier this time around ... thank god

Phen safe trip to China and have fun .... looking forward to pics from China.
 
Morning Nepoc.

Cleaned up the arm I made to hold my Dashhawk and painted it with Plastidip. Will reinstall that today. Another sunny day in FL.

Glad to hear the storm won't be a killer.

Phen, when are you going to China and then coming back?? Have a safe trip.
 
Got a great shot from autoX'ing the P5 two weeks ago. This is with the Racing Beat rear sway installed and the AXR clunk fix kit. Stock springs, Tokico Illuminas. The car is mid-rotation:

Early morning runs, foggy out that day. I increased tire pressures later in the day, which helped. Was running 40 front, 42 rear towards the end (could probably go higher, but my little 29psi-Miata mind couldn't handle the idea of pressures in the 40's).
 
Ah, stock suspension. Not as much "body roll" as "listing to starboard." :p
