I've got nothing. Hell of a way to start a new month off, eh? Sorry, it’s true. John texted me earlier and said he’s getting excited about working on his 1200. I told him hopefully it will light a fire under me to get one of mine on the road. Hmm, I thought diving in with a free form thought exercise like that would flow better and keep going. It fizzled. Perhaps if I just continue typing whatever crosses my mind I'll come up with something. Nope, not yet. Let’s see, John is getting the windows tinted in his 510 tomorrow morning and then we’re planning to install the cold air intake on Darth Versa. Gregg is supposed to have a guy coming to pick up those two RX-7s next to the shop as well. It will be nice to have plenty of parking spaces again. I could move Mr. Wiggly back down to the shop and off my back patio. I probably won’t, but I could. Oh, here’s something, John and I were discussing rear ends yesterday. Not that kind you perv. He was asking questions about 1200 versus B-210 axles. I mentioned the 200SX axle under the Chickenhawk as a possibility for his car. He vetoed it because of the width but suggested we slap it under Marty, use some 280ZX front struts, and the stock wheels from Darth Versa on there. I think we might do that. It means those wheels on Marty now are superfluous but I'm sure we can find some car to put them on. Ok, so that didn’t go as far as I had hoped. Hmm, I guess I could mention the fact that I still need to install that battery in the Seven and see if it and the new coil make the thing run any better. Yeah, I do need to do that. Depending on what John has going after we install the CAI on Darth Versa, while I'm welding holes in his 1200’s firewall, perhaps he’ll put the battery in. I won’t ask him to do it, but I guess I'll suggest it in here. We’ll see what happens. It is supposed to be warm tomorrow. Perhaps a course of Seven maintenance and hooning is in order. If we get around to it I guess. I won’t make it a first priority. John might think it is higher priority and want to do it. Juan never knows. It would be kind of neat to pull up to the Nissan dealer in the Seven to pick up his car. I'm not sure the two of us can get in it with the top on though. It sure wouldn’t be pretty! Ok, so we’d leave the top off for the drive to the dealer. I wonder what the number seven is in Japanese. [ Shichi... - SM ]I wonder why I never wondered that before. I wonder why I never thought of that as the name for the Seven. Hang on, I need to go do something right quick. Ok, it looks like I'm going to have to find a Japanese person for this. I'm getting all sorts of Kanji script translations, but no pronunciation help. You just gotta love that World Wide Information Super Speed Bump! Friggin’ worthless waste of time. Have I ever mentioned that I hate computers? I think it may have come up a time or two. Well, before I get all pissed off and go off on a rant, I think I'm going to just call it a week and shoost this off to Spiderman. Have a day, unless you are a computer geek in which case, die a painful death you worthless sack of shit.
