What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Unfortunately it wasn't just the factory spec for ford tires. My oldest brother had an AWD aerostar van, that had aftermarket firestones on it ( not the same model tires that the explorer had) and one of the front tires delaminated not even 5k after getting them mounted. It made him veer off the road and flip over after hitting a culvert. He was 100% fine, but the van was totalled. Our tire installer where we bought them from would not back us. The insurance company wrote it off, and I don't even think they gave my brother any blame.

 

We just got through our ISO audit. Fun times.

 

Good that he wasn’t hurt. I still won’t buy Firestone tires.

 

Neither will I. He's not a car guy, but late last year, he needed tires for his gf's car and asked me about firestone fr710's. I asked him what tires delaminated causing his van to flip years ago. He got it then.

 

We have our AS9100 recert to the latest standard (we are certified to C but have to go to D by August). That should be interesting as our Quality Manager position has been in flux since last July (manager retired, had an interim manager who got let go then they just hired a guy 2 weeks ago)

 

Supposed to get 3" - 6" of rain over the next several days. Got mud?

 

That’s way too much, especially if the ground hasn’t thawed yet.

 

If you get snowed in, maybe you could try this!

 

Kubota house plus a little?

 

The rain has started..
The snow is melting..

 

stupid azzhole dog escaped today while I was at work. Wife and a few neighbors were trying to corral him a few houses down when the junkie girl in the house next to where they are opens her door to yell about them not supposedan to be in there.... then let's her yorkie out after being told that he escaped. Little dog runs over and is picked up and shook like a rag doll by my chithead. $4k for surgery, wife agreed to pay half.

I wanna take ol yeller out back. Had it with this dog.

 

Raining, foggy and 35. Miserably damp and cool outside 73 here in the cave with a gentle fire purring.................

 

Funny, I don't remember getting hit by a bus this morning, but daaaaaaaammmmmmnnn do I feel like it. Suck factor will be high on the trip home tonight.

 

To anyone that is curious about break clean, I can tell you first hand as of yesterday, that it does indeed hurt when in your eyes. I was spraying out a broken grease zerk, with my safety glasses on the top of my head, squinting (just in case of course) sprayed a shot, good, sprayed another, great! Sprayed one last blast, it splashed back right onto my left eye! I saw it happen in slow motion taking time to reflect how stupid that was, and even remembering a sign in shop class in high school stating "protect your eyes, not your hair" and then it hit my eye, GOLLLLLY! THAT SHIZ BURNS!!! I turn around and find my way to the shop door, open it and since it was so bright out compared to inside it hurt more! Got it flushed out, wife got home after a while and did some eye drops, by the end of the day it was better. So to anyone just wondering, don't do it!!!
