Coon hunting out of the window...coons sure do like chicken feed.. However, I don't like them snooping around my chickens at night. I've lost two to them suckers. Got 3 coons a week ago out the window.

 

[Fire06]

Making coon hats ?????

 

[Mounce]

Nah, don't have the time nor the desire to skin one..my bro skinned one a couple months ago though, it's hanging in the garage at the moment. But, I have some "lucky rabbits feet" I made after a rabbit decided to check out my garden when things started sprouting. They're super easy to make.

 

[CaptainKD]

@ work. Totally would rather be coon hunting.

 

[Ghoster]

Lounging around the house waiting for my daughter to wake up so I have someone to play with.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Working

 

[Blckshdw]

Not working, and researching the inner workings of our fuse blocks, hoping I won't have to take mine apart, but being prepared in case I do...

 

[Aarkon]

Just found a local junkyard with two 04s so im in parts heaven

 

[dmanns67]

Waiting for my Hankook tires to be installed

[Aarkon]

Just finished the new disposal

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Free for the weekend!!

 

[bmcutright]

Driver's side headlight restored, now to the pool... What else to do in 90 degree florida weather

 

[Blckshdw]

Checked out a townhouse after work, that I think I wanna rent. Location will cut my commute in half, and won't have to drive through any school zones so that will be sweet. Little bit farther away from the mini meet regulars, but that's OK. I don't really like them anyway

 

[IllogicTC]

Just got home from work. 20 minute commute there, 20 minute commute back. Add a little other driving between yesterday evening and today, about an hour worth of runtime to get the new oil fully cycled in.

Got out of my truck with the engine running and I could hardly hear it. My first impressions on trying Mobil 1 are very good.

As long as there's a garage

 

[Blckshdw]

It does have a 1 car garage, and it's long enough for my EXT to fit in. The owner had the main door locked so I couldn't do a test fit. Water heater and softener are in one corner, so I might have to angle park a bit. Gonna start the application process next week, so we'll see what happens.

 

[sawicksted]

Replaced the rear washer pump.....

Tore apart the console as per may03lt's video.(awesome video by the way )...had a piece of plastic broken out of the bracket in the rear so there was nothing holding the console down on the passenger side at the back of the console. No wonder it was so wobbly. Much better now. Had everything I needed to make a fix in the shop so.....all I have left to do is the transfer case fluid change. Took about 1.5 hours

Cleaning and masking off the BrakeMotive rotors for some paint in the morning.

 

[Blckshdw]

Why are you masking the rotors? The pads will clean off the important parts. Or are you putting some custom paint scheme on them?

 

[dmanns67]

That's what I thought when I paint my stock rotors. After letting the paint dry and going for a drive, all the pads did was smear the paint on the disc and gum up the pads when they got hot. I had to use brake cleaner to take the paint off of the rotor where the pad contacted and pull the pads to clean the paint off of them. I assumed the paint would turn to dust when the brakes are applied, but did not happen. Maybe because it is caliper paint

This time I am going to mask off anything I do not want paint on. No custom paint, just gloss black to match the calipers.

That's weird, first time I've ever heard of that. I thought everyone who did that used caliper paint, just so it would hold up to the heat (everywhere else) on the rotor during braking. I am planning to do this next time I do my brakes, so I'll definitely keep this in mind, as a possible outcome.

 

[Blckshdw]

Roommates are throwing a birthday party for one of their dogs. I still can't believe this is about to happen.

 

[Aarkon]

Are they giving that booze to the dogs too? [emoji14]

They just finished making "puppy bombs" which are liver treats and a dog biscuit in a shot glass.

 

[Aarkon]

That should be interesting

Well according to the can, cure time is seven days. Maybe the guys who painted their entire rotors let them dry for seven days prior to install. Since my TB is my DD, I only had to luxury of waiting around 40hrs.

Nothing major on the masking, just trying to keep the paint off of the pad surface.

 

[Mark20]

Need to replace the flexible propane line from the tanks to the camper's trunk line. Something decided to take a few bites out of it.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Shot trap and gonna grill out

Finished my components

Survived the dog party. Interesting concept, funny to watch, that's for sure.

Being one of the few single people there, many of the non singles were constantly trying to set me up on dates, and not all with my best interest at heart. First example, this woman that is friends with a number of people there already has a BF, but because no one else likes him, they wanted to push me in the middle of it and have her date me instead. Drama, no thanks. (she WAS fine as hell though, so can't fault them for that) Second example, one of the neighbors was over, and she has a friend, little bit older than me, that apparently has an unhealthy on again off again thing with some dude. I don't dig the yo-yo types. Luckily this friend of hers couldn't make it to the party, or she probably would have been pushed in my face all day. And last one of the day, a woman who's a coworker of my friend who was here, texted him after leaving that she thinks I'm cute. So my friend and his fiance are already trying to setup a date. I need a beer (and I don't drink beer)

So that brings me to what I'll be doing tonight. We have a TON of leftover beer. So much that our fridge is packed, and there's no room for groceries. I said I would try to help out and drink a few of them, so during tonight's NBA playoffs, I'm gonna see how long I can go, drinking 1 beer per quarter. Usually I stop at 3 (liquor drinks), so this should be interesting.

 

[trailboycer72]

Sorry for the nudity but this is what I was doing today. Took my two year old and my niece fishing.

 

[Fire06]

Jealous of the fishing

 

[Mark20]

Need to go fishing myself.

 

[Blckshdw]

Pre-game, first and second quarter beers are in the books. Damn this shit is filling. Glad there's a halftime break!!
