Now if I can only do that once or twice a week, I could pay for my healthcare!

The lathe at work may be clapped out but it still is handy.

Well, a few short years from now, you will be able to get medicare.

Yep, time flies when you are retired. For me, it seems like I have to refill my weekly pill dispenser every other day, the weekly trash day is every third day, damn, I just turned over the monthly page on my calendar and I'm still trying to figure out why the Sunday paper comes twice a week -

Few observations from my wing and splitter install.

With the splitter coolent temps are about 20-25F cooler at freeway cruising speeds(70mph). A nice bonus.

The package absolutely works at lower speeds. The car feels a bit understeery with street tires on. Going to need to pull the gurney flap off the OEM wing to hopefully balance it out. Can't get the AOA below 2 degrees to the ground. Going to have to modify the adjusters.

Rebound feels overdamped at freeway speeds(70mph).

After 2-3 years of not being able to drive this I’ve finally got it buttoned up. Wonder how long before all my welds break on me

You guess word. No character, lose turn. Offend CCP you die. 4,000 characters, only 1 in 13,000 shows ever pay to contestants in one hour time frame.

There was a Japanese version, but not a Chinese version at least according to the fandom.com wiki.
