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.

    • I was in Utah this week attempting a bow hunt in the Wasatch mountains with friends.  On the evening of the first hunt, making my way across a ridge to a friends camp, the upper control arm on the driver's side separated, the CV axle got trashed, and the wheel was dang near at a 45 degree angle to the ground.  I was able to get it towed off the mountain and into town about 3:00 am, and spent the remainder of the night in an O'Reilly's parking lot.  Luckily, there was a Chevrolet dealership not to far away so I was able to get to the dealership and pick up a new CV and UCA.  It would have been a few days before they could have gotten to the truck and I brought tools with me on hunt since it was a two day drive to get there, so I did the repairs myself in the O'Reilly's parking lot.      What's interesting is that the UCA ball joint didn't break, it just popped out of the bottom of the UCA.  There was VERY LITTLE evidence of grease on the ball joint or in the socket, and you could see where the ball joint had warbled out part of the socket over time.  I guess that's what happens over 186K miles of use :)   Big Kudos to O'Reilly's for letting me work on the truck in their parking lot.  However, they made a $150+ off of me from the purchase of various tools, so I guess it was in their best interest anyways :)   Getting towed off the mountain.   UCA Ball Joint Socket   Trashed CV   Suspension disconnected and UCA and CV Removed   New UCA and CV installed with the suspension buttoned up.    
    • My family still laughs at me when they see me drive up in the minivan. Same with less than a V-8 truck. It helps that I have choices. I don’t think I could only have a minivan as the one and only vehicle as much as I like it. And I wouldn’t pass up a good buy on an older V-8 reg cab GM truck. Could you live Raven as the only ride?
    • Oil and filter threads are always a good time.  Especially when the BITOG discussion forums are cited as a definitive, technical source.    Countless single-data-point examples of why something is the best ever, or will destroy your engine... "they changed the shade of blue on the filter can, use at your own risk!"... "I've heard they changed the design to only have 64 pleats, total junk!"... "They're hidin' the NOACK data from us!  I wouldn't use that stuff in a cement kiln!".... "There was a guy who cut open Filter X (with a sawzall) and the anti-drainback valve was orange!  It used to be black!  Chinese junk!"   Good stuff.
    • I finally bit the bullet and installed a set of Bilstein 5100's on my 2024 Silverado 2500HD. My truck had about 75,000 miles and I've always felt the factory shocks were less than forgiving. So Bilstein 5100's are the most common go-to replacements. I personally have installed them on many trucks....2002 Silverado 1500, 2014 Silverado 1500, 2017 Chevy Colorado, 2019 GMC Canyon, 2022 Silverado 1500...now my 2024 Silverado 2500. I will eventually put them on my 2021 GMC Yukon as well. Great all around shocks.    Below is my video tutorial installing them on my 2500. As a bonus, for recently hitting 20,000 subscribers on my YouTube channel, I teamed up with Nick Scovel Jr at Scovel Motorsports to create a giveaway. Details are in the video description.

    • Raven    About 2 more weeks and this Mirage will be two years old and already packing 54K miles. The CVT has settled in and is outperforming my expectations. The engine in quite, smoot for a three pot and very economical to fuel. Life time result to date is a stunning 52.44 mpg with a median tank of 52.74 mpg. Given the number of miles I drive and the cost of fuel lately this buy has turned out to be quite the winner in this stable.       She is also quite the teacher. Nice thing about a car that gets this type of milage is that you see the results of minor changes with the change instead of having to average a months worth of gas tickets to filter out the tank to tank scatter. Those lesson apply to everything in the fleet and everything I've done to the pack works with this one as well.   EPA numbers for this car:     This example is running 42% over the government values!!!!  😱    I am really enjoying this car. Can't even hear the laughing of those that thought this a 'dumb/disappointing buy".
