Hell, had Moe's for dinner last night after spending $260 on groceries at the store.
LMAO... there you go again! ... now I know what sous vide is.

Sounds like you had a much needed vay k... glad you were able to turn off the work cell and decompress. I just have a few more Fri/Mon combo's myself before EOY starting tomorrow... for me at my work place working around Holidays is easy as not much going on with a lot of folks being off... just keeping lights on.

I honestly wonder if I should start hunting around again. Only been with this bank for 2 years. But I got an emergency call Sunday night to fix some accounts that were corrupted upon creation for mailboxes. Left with 9 tickets and will come in tomorrow to 73 new ones. Still have the massive O365 migration happening with decom of our old 2010 environment and full cutover to hosted proof point appliance. It's just to much for 1 person to handle. Not looking promising for a sys admin title or pay grade either. All this before eoy.

Is this a custom setup whereas you're now modifying the original 1200HP DSS Pro Axles with the GTR 115 mm outer cv joint conversion kit to get to the 1400HP rated levels?

Whatever the answer, having a 1400HP rated axle will handle as many line launches you throw at it and will certainly not be the weak link in your driveline. Cool Joby!
108/115’s
I think Soho may list them on his website

That sounds like a gut feeling to me which makes me believe you already know the right answer.

Don't let the wifey know your bored...she'll put you to work on something... pretend you're busy in the garage!

Looks like Tenn will dip slightly into the sub-freezing temps over next several days. Would think that someone occupying the RV will keep [inside]pipes from freezing but it's the outside/exposed pipes that's of concern I'm guessing. Is there something for RV's like heat tape/wire running off your ancillary batteries with a auto-freeze protect for the piping? ...not sure if you rent it out much in the winter months to warrant that expense tho. I thought for sure your RV had something like that already... its not missing much else!

I've been playing around with the motorhome to make sure it's ready to get.

The motorhome is fully enclosed. It has what is called a heated basement. All of the center storage area below deck is heated. That includes the tanks and lines. Long as I maintain temps above 50F. Everything is good.

When it comes back. I will drain all of the tanks and lines. Blow the lines out with air. Then fill the water tank up with 10 gallons of RV anti-freeze. Then pump that through all the water lines. That should be good down to -50F. If it gets that cold here. An ice age has started.

Motorhome is gone. Be back on the 14th.

Finally got around to dropping the insurance on the Z.

Think I'll go to the basement and play around with the new rifle. Take some measurements for reloading. As this rifle will never see a factory load, only hand crafted reloads.

Still waiting on scope rings for it. Wanted a sun shade for the scope. Found one in the UK. None in the US for a Schmidt & Bender scope. Waiting for that to come in.
