So far we've mainly had dustings of snow. We usually get one or two decent snows (over 3") a year. Two years ago we had a foot fall at once and last year we had several snows of over 3". I still wonder if mother nature is just waiting to surprise us. We're only halfway through January so there's still a lot of winter to go.

Mike that G8 could be as simple as a timing or sensor issue but it could be as major as a worn camshaft. If the cam is worn then there are metal filings in the engine and it just goes downhill from there. Emily I know you are disappointed but you were given very good advice. Having that much money in a car sitting in the driveway with a blown (don't mean supercharged here) engine isn't a good thing.

It was only a matter of time. I've been expecting it for a while. I'll just have to buy blackwalls next time.
The sun was shining at my house today even though it was only around 30 degrees, so I decided to drive the Pace Car. Of course now we're getting some precipitation. It's real fine almost sounds like sleet. I hope I get the car home before they put salt down.

It has factory chromes on it now but I am looking for an aftermarket set for him. Found a 2 month old set waiting on reply from seller as to what they fit. Why would anyone in their right mind advertise and not say what bolt pattern or at least what they came off of? P.S. those tires are discontinued, so if you want them you better get them now. Got a set on Ebay today. Seller said he had a couple sets.
What time is supper? I have not had any good spaghetti in ages. I can just barely boil water without burning it. Susan tries and is getting better as a cook but still got a ways to go. I'm glad she doesn't surf the MCF or I'd be sleeping on the couch without any supper. LOL

I just made some spaghetti earlier Gregg. It was very good . I'm a competent cook, I just don't have the time to do it.
