Well, got into my car to head out this evening to find someone broke in and stole my car stereo. The good news is they didn’t seem to damage to much while doing it. I think one of the back doors was left unlocked. Normally the electric locks close everything but one door in the back seat is broken electrically, it works manually, but I honestly don’t do a very good job checking it. They just bent the dash and took it out. I was surprised the plastic could bend that much without breaking. I pulled the radio fuse and see if I can set the dash back tomorrow. At least no glass or obvious plastic broke. All this happened right on the street directly in front of my apartment. Just a shitty day.

ADDITION: A little bit of Karmic justice has happened. Whoever the asshole was that stole my stereo, he left the knob to the stereo behind, it was under the seat. Now it will be a pain in the ass to work, so much stuff is controlled with that button. HA HA

Well today I felt like crap. Definitely a rough day. This afternoon I had to get out of here and took the Olds out for a spin. It’s running pretty good but not perfect. I haven’t been able to locate a accelerator pump for the carburetor without having to purchase a entire new rebuild kit, which, I just had it rebuilt 2 weeks ago but the kit that I had purchased didn’t have the correct pump. So the mechanic “borrowed” one from a Chevrolet engine. The Chevy one is a little too small but it does the job for the most part. So, today I did some driving, some cleaning and some polishing. Its looking pretty good, but, probably for eternity, its needs a little more. I would like to get some of the scratches out soon, maybe when the weather cools down a little bit. Anyway, I took some pics that can be seen here.

Found a good picture of my Buddy Lloyd, and I laughed and laughed. Here it is: Freese Gang
I have also made a video pretty much showing the sum total of my cats life: Tiggers Nap.wmv

I am back to the digital world. Had some problems with getting reconnected but they are done now.
