We like to have fun, even if most of us are old farts. Stick around, gets interesting sometimes.

See you had some surgery a while back, hope that turned out ok. I call my 89 EVO "old", but it's a new kid compared to some of yours. I like the old stuf, would like to have a knuckle if I had the money and space for it.

Timing is always a biggy with farmed out labor. The no longer around airline I wus employed at decided they'd save a ton of money laying off several thousand years of experience and sending parts and planes where labor was really cheap. Then they had to buy a bunch of spare parts since there was no overnight fixing, played musical chairs swapping parts among planes trying to keep a schedule, and ultimately finding out time IS money... the hard way.

How many pre-orders you have, versus cost of equipment, might be a consideration. That compensator gets good reviews, you could be looking at thousands of them, none of the competition seems to be impressing the hell out of owners. Was one of the reasons I decided to stick with EVO... one of many...

Yeah, funny if they're small. Two hundred pounders here ain't funny runnin' around. Good thing my Lab is too lazy to run around and the kid's Shepherd is learnin' to be lazy.

Don't have any puppies to watch but the cats are entertaining when they go at it. Dem fuggers are fast when they want to be. They can go from one end of the house to the other in a blink.
