4 tickets to Monster Jam for tomorrow at the Mercedes Benz Super Dome. My favorite is the Free Style. Lets tear up some big Trucks. I hope they have the Demo derby race this year. The best race is the trailer race. Think about it. figure 8 racing, with boat trailers, campers. Talk about a mess and fun to watch. Too bad Dennis Anderson won't be driving Grave Digger. He was in a bad accident a few weeks ago. Probably the best monster truck driver out there.

I was there at Raymond James Stadium when Dennis wreaked. They pulled him out and he rode off in the paramedic "gator" waving at everyone. I didn't realize he was hurt

Now that I have the Audi specific OBD II reader, I will attempt an oil change on the car in the near future. And now I know why it costs north of a hundred bucks to have the oil changed at the dealer.

Case (?-6qts) of Mobil 1 0-40W oil-$32.99 (Don't know why I went for the case. I've never needed a top up in 11 years of ownership)
K & N 3001 oil filter-$14.00

Bikes have oil changes due, too, so sprung for a gallon of Rotella 15-40W for the CX and and a gallon of of Mystic synthetic 15-50W for the Ural. That's good for two oil changes for the Ural and one and a third on the CX.

D batteries for my garage Grundig
Fender washers
Step drill kit.

No wonder I can never get out of Farm and Fleet for under a hundred bucks.

we didn't put up with it that long...moved in back in september 2016....LOL it was a horrible layout, no dishwasher and a crappy range... a little goes a long way.... total investment in the kitchen: roughly $1500 in appliances, countertop, and sink. shop the deals and it can be done cheap... move some cabinets, add in one, bruised and reduced dishwasher ($700 samsung with a few dents marked down to $150) and some new counter and you are good to go.... look on the wifes face when it all comes together: Priceless!!!!!!

Samsung awesome stuff. Those scratch and dent deals are great when you can get them, usually just of a drop of porcelain white appliance paint and your good to go.

a bit hard to do with stainless....LOL but yeah... waiting for the matching Fridge to come up scratch and dent and have the whole set... electric true convection range, whisper quiet (seriously... 43 decibels) dishwasher, and fridge... but alas.... no deals on the fridge, so the Frigidaire that came with the house will have to suffice

to date since the purchase of our home, we have resided, redone the kitchen, and put up fresh beadboard in the dining room, along with painting everything... oh, and getting the chimney skim coated, and painting the deck... and redoing the front porch ceiling.... joys of home-ownership i tell ya...

Picked up a new battery at Wally World and ordered a new Unibear chain and rear sprocket for Q. Got her tore down, ready to go and waiting for the mailman. Need to gear it down some for better trail riding. Isn't that aluminum box swingarm a work of art?

i don't think I have ever seen anybody with a full size atv jack on a motorcycle lift table before .When I scrap a car ,I grab the scissor jack ,put a stable base on them then Weld a metal tube across the top and use them as jacks on my lift tables .I am almost finished an atv sized lift table so I might steal your idea for that .

This is chinariders there is no stealing of ideas, only reverse engineering and replication.
