120 year old floor failure.

 

Not only does my leg hurt because of missing skin, my back is killing me from the sudden stop.

Thanks for the reminder that crocs are NOT good shoes in the garage.


Random non-us trucklet with diplomatic plates I saw recently.


 

It appears to be a Renault Duster Oroch. Which means that it is based on an extended version of the Dacia Sandero platform.

Indeed.  Crocs are NOT appropriate foot wear for any situation other than the comfort of your own home.  I Hate them.

That's my daughter's (Indy-kid #1's) Croc.  It's now 8:32 am & we're still waiting on the surgeon.

Well dayum!! 

SWMBO pulled a brand new wallet out that I got for Christmas 5 or so years ago, "Yours is looking kinda beat".  After ignoring it for days while imagining a big lump in my pocket, today I swapped it out.  Permanently removed the Covid card and others; standing over the trash can I thought I'd go through it one more time.

Merry Christmas to me!   (ssshhhhhh don't telll her)

Hey! Twinsies!

 

Mine has nothing in that spot but a spare key, unfortunately.

I've been trying to get these packs made for years, the combination of a great practice manager and a great certified technician got it done.

That looks like it would be handy in the garage or OR.

Oof!

I don't know as much about Porsches as maybe I should, but that black roadster (spyder?) is kindly compelling.  Nice reflection of the red 356 coupe in the quarter panel, too.

Bonus internets for the early style hot rods across the lawn, too.  Odds are good the wine and cheesers would drag my out of the furren section by my ear before I even had a chance to ask about the Grey Poupon, but the butch wax and glasspacks crowd might let me hang around for a while...

I like the black 356, but I don't have the social status to hang around anybody wealthy enough to own one, and would probably feel a lot more comfortable with the old hot rods in the background of your first photo.

A couple from over the weekend:



An old Piper Cub (thanks to FB people for the ID!) looking cool flying over my house.



Some people have garage/barn cats to eat rodents. Apparently, I have a garage snake instead, as of this past Saturday. I've named it Shelby. We made a pact that it can eat all the rodents it wants to as long as I can get to my tools.
