Nah. The cars aren't going fast enough to get down force or lift. Just there to show it is a race car.

Had another great day. Ran errands with the wife. Won another $30 at the dive bar, with a couple beers. Sitting on my deck now watching the birds. Haven't seen mr. Badger in a couple days. Got the new battery in the lotus.

Went to the new Alberstsons Market Place store. Wow, impressive. They have the best wine selection I've seen outside of the serious wine dealers in Redwood city cali. They have $1000 Bordeaux, port and my favorite Duckhorn merlot and Pinots, even magnums for $130. The store is in Eagle (20 minute drive). Really big and nice store. They even have fresh poke'.

Did you save something to do for tomorrow?

That's important.

You kidding? I still got 12 door knobs, 30 sprinklers, 50 outlets, and about 20 switches.

But my wife and I are getting used to "cuddling" around 6:00am, then sleeping till 9.

Love not going to work.
