A Livestock agent stopped by my ranch this morning.

“I need to inspect your animals for the Bird Flu," he said.

“By all means officer, just don’t go in that field over there,” I said.

The Livestock officer snapped, saying “Do you know who the hell I am!?

I have the authority of the federal government with me,” he shouted before pulling a badge out of his back pocket.

“Do you see this freaking badge, dadgummit!!?

This badge means, "I can do what I want and I’ll go wherever I want, have I made myself clear!?”

I nodded politely, apologized, and went about my chores. 

A short while later, I heard loud screams, looked up and saw the Livestock agent running for his life from my angry bull. 

With each step, the bull was gaining ground and it sure looked like he'd be gored before he could get to the fence line.

The agent looked terrified and continued to run for his life.

I threw down my tools, immediately ran to the edge of the fence and shouted at the top of my lungs,

“Your badge, show him your freaking badge, dadgummit!!

I love it!

 

I had one solicitor recently, wouldn't take no for answer, starting getting belligerent...... until i turned just enough for him to see I was putting my hand on my pistol. Reported him to the cops as he didn't have the required documentation to solicit. This is what the City wants us to do. Also sent the porch video to the cops to match up with my phone report.

Watch the political stuff going forward. Been a lot of stuff deleted in several threads. Some things that have been posted today, while you may think it's funny, actually has the effect of only starting arguments.

I’m guilty. It’s tough I fall for the bait. I’ll refrain as best I can. There can’t be a reasonable outcome. No minds will be persuaded either way.

We've all slipped a bit lately. Need to dial it back

    • Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles. 
    • Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.
    • LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL
    • Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
