    Probably just running a little hot. And yes, tree pollen will give me an elevated temp. I seriously just think its allergies, I'm right at 100°, so nothing to write home about unless you're married to me and like to overreact.

    I am still far more concerned about getting killed in a car accident on my way home tonight that I am about the Corona Virus. Little Rock drivers suck, our car insurance rates are higher than OK, TX, MO, TN, and LA. Meanwhile, brainless fools continue to forget the importance of washing their hands and staying home if they feel sick.

    Makes me glad I live in the sticks...

    Now if people from the sales office who were in China, would just stay home, all would be great.

    Watching the morning news the MNDOT is going to be tearing up the freeway leading to the airport, MNDOT tells us to plan for an extra hour. Beyond stupid I will now have to leave home 4 hours before my flight. Weeks like this will suck got home at 9 last night, back in the truck at 8:15 this morning.

    They are closing the school due to Corona? Would have thought it would been because of the beer, not the virus.

    My whole day completely shot , a good no wind day, because of Frontier. Won't get into it other than to say 4 agents, over 3hrs. A stiff neck, wicked head ache and stomach upset, and my teeth actually hurt. I hate when hubby sicks me on these people.
    It went as far as my accusing them of agism. Next move attorney generals office. A good 41 yr customer with excellent history can't get 45.00 internet lowered and was told it will be going up again (31.09 to 45.00 in a month) 10 - 14 next month. While a guy we know 6 miles across the valley is getting a 35.00 a month life of service internet from them. All I got was " I don't know why.... "

    Just don't try to remove the coil without a spring compressor if you're not swapping complete assemblies.

    Yeah I am supposed to be at the Kellogg tomorrow with a locked down campus, have to show up at 7 am to see if the show goes on. Cost me a plane ride, rental car, hotel, and booth space.

    I found a good honest mechanic about ten years ago and about once every couple of months I drop off something like a case of beer, summer sausage or venison hot links. Good mechanics are worth their weight in gold, bad ones are a dime a dozen.

    If you do not know a good trustworthy mechanic you lease, or have a company that needs you pay for a lease.:biggrin:

    Virginia is close to shutting down schools. Colleges have already started a semi shut down.

    Got one of the struts on.. not a hard process. I'm just having trouble with seized bolts and the linkages on the sway bars mostly.
