    Whenever you have 1300 miles each way of Cessna sized bugs to fight through, a detail makes little to no difference. :(

    Maybe by my SP time the change oil light in the Porker will go off, and I can get a freebie before I head out. :) I already changed it twice, and still no light at 7000 miles... Really, I dont trust a synthetic concoction made to mimic critters that went extinct millions of years ago that much. ;)

    While we'd have to have "Weather" out here to benefit, are those a nice addition? Don't see the link.

    Shoveled and pushed 8 inches of snow from around and on my MINI, and
    there's several hours of snow to go before it stops. Road hasn't been plowed
    yet so no one's going anywhere yet.

    Visited the local glass handler to get *another* rock chip repaired; that's the second one this winter.

    I'm thinking for the next one I'll break down and let them replace the windshield (and shell out my deductible). I've resisted so far, not wanting to disrupt the factory install and seal.

    I walked down stairs to my desk to work. Went out into the garage for a smoke looked at my clean and warm MINI and opened the door to well over 5 inch's of snow. It still snowing and I have shoveled the driveway 4 times.:shovel:

    We have a good foot of snow right now and it's still snowing. It's nice to work from home. :wink:

    I'm sorry to hear Dave. With it being sunny and around 70 here today, we took the R53 for a little cruise. Nice to have the roof open and the wind in the hair! Well, her hair anyway...

    I did nothing with my MINI today. Haven't even tried to climb down my ice covered steps. A good day to stay in.

    Ask Jan, it's out of my hands now. I'd show a picture of my empty garage, but it's kind of boring....
