He was just an acquaintance, but it's sad to see him pass.

Steve

 

Oh my goodness, we made it through a whole page in one day and most of it was all about my antenna ball. How sad to see it go . Steve will stop by today or tomorrow for the CMS shorty and whats all this about the alta. Why would I buy the alta, even if I do find a topper for it, I want a CMS one! We are promoters here and I rather promote your business. I just hope it does not kill the reception in the mountains. John thanks again for the cover. I finally got the car cleaned last night and put it on today for it's first day out in the sun! Will see you all on Friday at Casa and if not on Saturday!

Tina

 

Steve if you decide to start climbing again, please dont do it solo ........I think we can get Joe or Janet to go with you

 

Almost every climber solos to some extent. It's just a matter of what you're comfortable with and how close to your max ability you're willing to get. But there is always the unexpected or bad luck that can kill you even when you are well within your ability. I haven't sold my gear, but unless I can dump this weight and stay healthy, I won't be climbing again anytime soon.

Steve

 

We could put the lift up at max height and that would give some a little bit of height to work at. Others keep hitting their head on the lift everytime they walk under it.

 

Or they walk into the roll-up door

 

Well stay away from the "Casa"

 

They say the first thing to go is the memory and I keep running into the same item.

 

It's Friday retirement ceremony followed by helping out Steve (which will result in me kicking something or hitting my head at least once ) followed by CASA.

 

Anyone know where we are having the next MidCal Mtg ???

 

Next get together is July 19th at Nick and Shelly's see the thread

Is the Cosworth done?

 

Since Jiminni is a asleep after cleaning out the pool (yup, the tree is out and the pool is drained), I will answer your question. The Cosworth is in and it ran well on the Saturday run. He and Joe are supposed to go next Saturday to get it tuned in L.A. j.

 

I'm super-jazzed for our run to LA to get the tune laid on JIMINNImachine's ECU. It's gonna be awesome!

 

and what about the Frackmobile part deux?

 

When is the head being done?

 

Not yet. Maybe next week if he gets his intake manifold ported.

Steve

 

And Joe said he will be there to help turn wrenches I gotta get some pics of that

 

We're leaving in 42min for vacation, so I'll try to get by the shop to get the intake manifold over to "the guy". Unless my best buddy JIMINNImachine wants to hook me up & drop it off.

 

So that gives you 41 mins to go to work ................dude not sure what you would be wanting on the port job? Just ported or ported and polished? Call me mang.

 

Thought I would share this, this is amazing :






One TRILLION dollars...
What does that look like? I mean, these various numbers are tossed around like so many doggie treats, so I thought I'd take Google Sketchup out for a test drive and try to get a sense of what exactly a trillion dollars looks like.
We'll start with a $100 dollar bill. Currently the largest U.S. denomination in general circulation. Most everyone has seen them, slighty fewer have owned them. Guaranteed to make friends wherever they go.

A packet of one hundred $100 bills is less than 1/2" thick and contains $10,000. Fits in your pocket easily and is more than enough for week or two of shamefully decadent fun.

Believe it or not, this next little pile is $1 million dollars (100 packets of $10,000). You could stuff that into a grocery bag and walk around with it.

While a measly $1 million looked a little unimpressive, $100 million is a little more respectable. It fits neatly on a standard pallet...

And $1 BILLION dollars... now we're really getting somewhere...

Next we'll look at ONE TRILLION dollars. This is that number we've been hearing so much about. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it's a million million. It's a thousand billion. It's a one followed by 12 zeros.
You ready for this?
It's pretty surprising.
Go ahead...
Scroll down...
Ladies and gentlemen... I give you $1 trillion dollars...

(And notice those pallets are double stacked.)
So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about

Nice graphic Jiminni I would be happy with a pound of bills really denomination does not matter it all would spend rather easily.

 

So do we have anyone with math skills here? If it was changed to $1. dollar bills how much would it be then?

 

1 trillion, duh!

 

Dude those are 100 dollar bills now?
