Today I disassembled the rebuilt four-barrel carburetor I just bought, and had my suspicions confirmed - the wankers set the float height wrong.
Niska: Mr. Reynolds? You died, Mr. Reynolds. Mal: Seemed like the thing to do.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Erm, Hec? Would it compromise the look of it too much to have a gear package added? And thus, the best of both worlds?
I guess that would depend on how much it costs since I expect something like that would eat up the 50% discount.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Well, I'm droopy, but we had to get up early for Emmett's baseball practice, and now I'm having a mid afternoon, droop inducing beer.
It's not actually mid-afternoon for you yet, you know. I'm much droopier today after a mid-afternoon coffee than I was yesterday after a mid-afternoon mimosa. It is curious.
But I'm listening to a hilarious mix of music off my computer (unplayed songs alpha by title, so it's all Guy/Nellie McKay/Journey/Kanye West).

Well, that's true. So I think I'll have a latte now on top of the beer for the speedball effect.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Aristocrats isn't until 4:30! That so jiggers my plans.
I have music on my hands. A grenade was thrown into the CD storage at krav. This counts as mildly weird, but at least it was an un-juiced grenade, that only clipped one CD. But the metallic-optic covering is all over my hands like glitter on steroids from the cleanup.

There's a bike like that in The Wedding Crashers.
Which means she totally needs it.

I meant to see Wedding Crashers today, but now I'm too droopy! Darn it.
How technologically ridiculous am I that I just used Google Earth to find out where, exactly, the track is in the park I was at earlier because I forgot to look for it in person?

Did someone post a link to a picture of the cute bike basket (complete with plastic flowers) that David Letterman gave to Lance Armstrong? [link]
