What really grates on me is when some pompous ^&%$ actually thinks and expects me to do his job. Fortunately for all involved, this happens very infrequently and virutally every time, it was a man .

I'm just crabby. This promises to be the support and on-call week from hell and won't be over til next Tuesday . Rant over.

Happy Hump Day Evening all.

On a postive note, my RX Catch Can and Breather (color matched, of course ) arrived today. After on-call concludes next week, I'm taking my car in to have it and my JBA Shorties installed. Wooooohoooooo

Sky man, glad to see you are feeling better.

LBM, I'm glad you're weekend is here. Are you doing Camaros in the Sand this weekend?

Diane, no surprise that it's more expensive to fly into LV than LAX. When are you visiting your son in Barstow?
Sure seems like it.

Today I had to endure the scrutiny of three managers reviewing a passed off file. Seems they were OK with someone passing it off to me, but not OK with my thinking on how I handled it. I used to fire back with guns blazing, but not anymore. Being outnumbered 3 to 1, I would have lost that battle.

I've learned to never back down from what I believe is right and, ultimately, agree to disagree with them.

I suppose they will learn to leave me alone sooner or later.
