So replacing the leaky seal on the LS1 puts me at least halfway through getting the cam swapped.

Anyone got suggestions on good cams these days? :getin: Seems like most of what I'm finding is 10+ year old info, back before anyone looking to make power made sure to start with a 6.0/6.2.

Apparently the GM Hot Cam is a pretty decent cam. Howards also has a version of that came that's just a hair more aggressive. Probably what I'll eventually pick up for a 6.0/6.8 build.

My wife went vegetarian simply because she hates animals being treated cruelly and we can't afford free range/grain free for every meal for two of us.

I eat a lot of meat, but it's not hard or even unsustainable to not eat meat every drat meal. It's not omginternetzcool to say that, but oh well.

My church just asks for whatever you can spare, and if you can't spare anything, no big deal. They don't say "hey we expect you to give us X percent!". But it's one o dem liberal churches that accepts the gays, atheists, pagans, etc (Unitarian Universalist).

The general rule of thumb is something like 10% tithe, at least so I've heard, but there's no actual requirement other than guilt. :D

I'm a bit behind in classes thanks to the whole hospital bit, so I was the last one who hadn't taken the 801 A+ exam. I was nervous, but blew through it in about 15 minutes, and passed with a good bit of headroom (passing score is 675, I scored 800). When I walked out of the test room, my instructor happened to be walking by. He stared, and said "you're already done?"

The 802 portion of A+ covers a lot more than I expected, and the practice tests have been giving me trouble. Never figured I'd have any issues with A+. But hopefully I'll get that knocked out on Tuesday. A handful of people in the class have failed it on the first (and second) attempt.

The class has moved on to MTA Networking Fundamentals (for all of 2 weeks, then Network+). I'm falling asleep watching the videos, and I'm pretty sure I can blow through that cert right now and likely pass it - one person in the class already has. The only parts that have been covered so far that I wasn't 100% down with are the OSI model (never cared enough to know it) and class A and B private IP ranges.

I barely remember all of that stuff, which tells you how much I've actually been using it while janitoring.
I would like to do more network stuff - that's a slightly better career path than the Workstation stuff I'm doing.
I'm actually a Mac guy, but the past head Mac Guy didn't like me or something (never did get a straight answer) so I've been Windows exclusinve for the last 4 years. The fired one of the Mac guys here for, well, and now want me to help the remaining Mac guy part time. Mind you, they dont' want to reduce my tickets on the Windows side to accommodate that.
I really want to go back to the Mac stuff. There's a lot fewer techs that know Mac, and NONE of them are Indian, which means they get paid better. Our offshore team has no clue about them, so me and the other Mac guy do EVERYTHING related to the Macs - software, hardware, service, even some servers. I'm trying to help out, but too many damned Windows tickets, and they're all hands and feet stuff, which means they take longer, because that's what us onsite guys are for.
At least I'm busy, I guess.

I was super into cars but no one I knew had a stick when I learned how to drive. It took until I was 20 years old in 2000 just starting out at the auto auction to learn.

I learned over the course of about 45 minutes one slow shift in the auction lot, on a '99 Mustang Cobra. :getin:

The clutch did not survive.

mmm this nitromethane gets my supercharger runnin'
I had a car salesman argue with me today about the existence of the 2016 Focus RS and whether it's coming to the US. He didn't know about it until I said something, and then proceeded to argue with me about a car he didn't know anything about. GOOD WAY TO NOT GET A SALE DUDE. I got his e-mail address just so that I could send him the press release from Ford's OWN WEB SITE announcing it as a global model. :mad:

I also drove a c63 and IS-F, both of which were good in their own way. I liked the manual mode on the IS-F, which doesn't upshift automatically at redline, but I didn't like how the transition to power @ 3k felt so abrupt. The c63 is absolutely bonkers and was like driving a rocket ship. It just wanted to go so easily and happily. The one I test drove had some paint nicks on the outside and pretty high miles though, so I'm not sure I could live with the specific car. I saw complaints about the feel of the C63 in reviews, but to me it felt pretty tight and good, certainly better than the IS-F (which was an 08 so doesn't have the revised suspension).

I'm still kind of in a bad mood about the salesman above. :colbert:
