What’s your plans? I thought I was going to kick back. I married a woman who lives to host. Usually my son does the New Year and we bug out early. My son and his are going skiing so they opted out. We didn’t learn this until yesterday. My wife is so happy. Twenty and counting. At least there’s no drinking. Pizza and dip. I’m going to start a marbles tournament. I’m sure other games will be going. Then there’s the ugly gift exchange. Oh well, I’ll enjoy it in spite of my self.

Sounds like a good time.  Wife and I are planning a quiet night.  Maybe watch a movie.  Turn in early.  Hoping there aren't any fireworks or gun shots around midnight.  Freaks the horses out and we have to get up to babysit them.  

 

Enjoy!  Happy New Year!

Haven't been to a new years party in many years and we're asleep before 12am. We just steam up some shrimp and make crab cakes watch a movie then go to bed but tonight it looks like we will be watching hotrod garage with a new episode at 9pm.

Happy New Years!

 

We are hanging out at the house with Kids and my parents are coming over. My mother in law is currently in town from MN visiting.  Pretty low key but will be fun as always.

Marbles sounds like fun.

Actually it’s a board game. I never played until I retired and started visiting my father in law. That was required and all they did for entertainment. Me and my wife were place holders. I was his partner and my wife was his wife’s partner. We just listened to their instructions.

Version of 1918 swine flu based on an immunologist who is a friend. He lives near you Stan. He works as horse rescue ranch veterinarian. Side note he’s a 2 tour combat marine, Vietnam. ( he hates MAGA too) 
 

We’ll watch a movie and go to sleep after we try to walk up a mountain in front yard. 
 

Going to party at 2 pm 1 Jan for old people, trans girl, and gay man neighbors. I added that granularity in the style of  Stan. MERIKA!!!

It will be a miracle if I'm still up at 10pm tonight. I don't get wild for NYE, never preferred that.

 

The best start to a New Year, IMO is a good night of sleep and waking with a clear mind.

 

@customboss Gay neighbors are the best. Hug your Trans friend. And give the old people a pat on the head for me.

 

Sounds like my family too.

God bless you and happy new year, we are staying home and playing board games with son and my old uncle, no booze, dope or sexual deviants.

Sorry that the morons try to f*ck up a cheery post but they have miserable shitty lives and try to project that onto others.

Cheers

Sounds boring AF.

 

Who mentioned anything about sexual deviants? Is someone sending leg pics again?

So are you going to get drunk and pass out? I couldn’t think of anything better than playing board games with my family.

No, that’s not my style. I’m likely to have a boring night too. By design. There’s nothing wrong with boring AF. Still curious how sexual deviants came up.

    • The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.                 
    • It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.  
    • They’re not the same wiz as 10-15 years ago.  QC has fallen pretty hard.  The XP line was never good though in the first place.    https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/wix-filter-rusted-through.386492/post-6991372   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/i-ve-used-my-last-wix-filter.27299/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/looking-for-a-better-replacement-for-wix-51258.403977/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/convince-me-in-using-the-purolator-boss.401537/post-7420147   the forums are littered with posts and examples of not great wix filters the last couple years 
    • *Your      
    • I'd guess that it's because they are Mann-Hummel filters since about 2016, they own Wix and are mostly all made in China now.
