I'm still buried at work but i have plans to make a run for the border this weekend or next week. I feel a little guilty because tom gave me this cool cup for free. I still haven't drank out of it. I put it back in its' box and keep it behind the seat now. Makes me feel like i driving around in a cadillac, sort of. I've never driven around in a cadillac but i bet this is how it feels.
I so bad want to be a muggie too.
Buried at work? Sounds like there is some commonality with my experiences lately. Is it the end of the FY?
Driving a Cadillac? I did that during the brief period of my Dad's prosperity in the 60s. 1962 model 62 convertible coupe. 390 CI 325 HP 4 speed hydramatic. Nail it from stop in D and it left 30 feet of the right rear on the pavement. DO NOT try to drive fast on a twisty road. Nice car, over rated, coulda had an Olds with the same options.
Now, something called CTS for a years wage? Why would I know.
Which border? I can't remember where you're at.
When you drive past the "You are now leaving California" sign, keep going a couple thousand miles. You can't miss it.
Actually those signs say "check point ahead - all traffic must stop". Both entering and exiting the state. Not sure I remember seeing one at RAT Beach. Maybe the sign is up in sannamonicah.
Too funny! Actually, my car is more Air Force blue then black (like the mug). Yesterday (and today) is the rare condition of rain down here in sunny SoCal. I'll get a better pic with the sun setting over the lake next week.
FYI, the color's official name is Astra Blue. I used to have the color number and the NSN for everything from spray cans to 5GL. Mis spent youth on small installations where you do your job plus be VCNCO.
Gotta go, work tomorrow, or more correctly training. Got to see some really cool vids today about arc flash and protective grounds.
Seriously, if any of you ever deal with opening panels from 120 , 480 to 50 kV, think about and wear PPE if in doubt. Especially if investigating a fault. If there is a superior around who insists on opening it, let the superior open it and stand back. Rember the MAD.
Tom, what does the mug provider call the color?
I hope this post does not get anyone banned. If my posts do get anyone banned, is it for ever?
Tomorrow I get to blow the dummy and try to remember whatever the CPR count is this year.
