I would be happy if my room was stinking with the thinner. My wife has just finished descaling our kettle using some of vinegar. Geez.. even our dog started to snort and cough. I think I should open a bottle with the Nitro thinner. At least it can kill the odor.

It's just one thing after another lately. Spent much of Saturday lifting boxes and re-arranging things in the house. Saturday night my right knee started to ache. Sunday I could not even bend my knee. Monday moring, off to work and could not bend it in order to even get in the car. Had to dang near lay down on the seat and pivot my leg in while puching with my one good leg to get into the car.
Add to that tomorrow I get to see the Dentist again for a deep root cleaning or whatever it's called, where the go down under the gums to clean up the nasties. Should be fun.

It's called a scaling and I just got one done. The 4 shots of novacaine hurt more than the actual deep cleaning so take it from me, as one who has a primal fear of dentists, it's no big deal.

Dang knee is still killing me. Took 15 minutes just to get dressed this morning as I can even bent my knee in order to get socks, undergarments, and pants on!!! Top it all off I fell on the floor at work today trying to set my ass down in my chair, it started to scoot away from me as I was fully commited to sit, and I couldn't catch my balance with the bad leg.
That broke the last straw and I reluctantly made a doctor appt knowing full well they won't do much other than tell me to take Ibuprofen, put ice on it and try not to walk on it! You wait and see.

Someone on another site telling me I'm wrong for saying that the USAAF didn't operate Corsairs and that the photo in question wasn't from 1943 by telling me the date a USAAF Bomb Group was in the Pacific in 1943 and was escorted by Corsairs, which is all irrelevant information. And you wonder why people spread misconceptions...

Well I did correct them but then they came back with a source that was inaccurate, so then I had to dig out another source. Basically he claims an F4U-1D was lost during December 1943, when the type wasn't even accepted for evaluation until 22 April 1944.
Spent $45.00 on an electrical part for my car to fix the turn signals and hazards, only to literally watch it go up in smoke during testing. Fudge!!!!! I guess that wasn't the problem!

Turn signal/hazard light problem - very probably a simple relay or fuse.
When I had my Jeep Cherokee, a 'mechanic' at a garage 'snagged' it for the annual MoT ( compulsory safety certificate in the UK), saying the lights didn't work properly due to some sort of complex, and expensive fault.
He would though, wouldn't he, as he thought he'd get the job of fixing it ?
I remembered a similar fault, many years ago, on my Ford Escort rally car, so I took it home, changed the relevant fuse and replaced a relay that had corrosion on the terminals, and 'bingo' - all worked as it should.
Oh, and it only cost about £5 to do !!!

Don't you know Terry, I have the service manual and the first thing they say is replace the fuse. Problem is I can't find the damn thing! So I went with the next thing they said to replace. So many problems with the electrical system, I don't know if I have the time, patience or skill. The manual is written in Greek (to me)!
