The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXX

And you're right, an oil cooler is a must have track or no track.

Just goes to show how important having actual airflow also is to cooling components.

One of the offers, I accepted 2 weeks ago and the start date is this coming Friday, but will likely tell them that I am rescinding the acceptance.

Going from commission to a W2 salary employee, the pay cut is noticeable, BUT, I will have my life and sanity back.

Purple haired wokster: ok, you want lettuce on that? Slides the sandwich down an inch.
Me: yeah, everything but tomatoes.
PHW: you want tomatoes with that?
Me: No, everything BUT tomatoes.
PHW: you want onions?
Me: blank stare...
PHW: sir?
Me: YES! Everything but tomatoes!
PHW: you want tomatoes?
Me: I'm sorry but I dont have the patience for this. Make whatever you want.
PHW: calls her manager who looks like a human pin cushion.

Human pin cushion tells me I'm rude. I laugh.

Comes time to pay and PHW got weepy when I wouldn't leave a tip. Told me I was a horrible human being. LOL!

Thank God I'll be dead before these clowns will come into power. This Country is screwed.

Rant off...

"Obesity changes the brain, with ‘no sign of reversibility,’ expert says."

It could be a number of reasons, whether too scared to start, not knowing where/how to start, laziness, procrastinating, too cold, too hot, raining, snowing, etc., if you are not working out/exercising, the best time to start is NOW. Start off slow and work your way up gradually. You don't need fancy clothes, equipment, or a gym membership. A simple walk around your neighborhood can go a long way.
