Life is good again---
because
I caught a huge break--
My 2006 Brabus, diesel, Smart for Two had
instigated a huge mental depression for me...
My Pocket Rocket's parking brake had frozen in the locked position.
The parking brake just locked up with no prior warnings or indication of a problem.
Immovable for two weeks.
For ten days I ran through every possible
solution I had found in multiple Internet searches
for this particular brake problem--all with negative results.
I was completely and totally at a loss of what to do
and rabidly bummed-out.
I was left with no other option than to
take the vehicle's parking brake system apart--
with no schematics or any concept of what i was actually suppose to fix.
I was seriously depressed thinking that i could do more damage
than good to a vehicle that I have truly grown to love.
I put off tackling the problem as long as I could
through endless researching, cleaning the garage,
organizing and re-organizing my tools over and over again...
I would sit in the garage pretending to be thinking out the problem from all directions---
Anything was preferable than getting lost in a maze of mechanical parts
that would have no meaning for me.....
On the very morning that I had brutally shamed myself into starting to
actually disassemble important parts of the vehicle,
I decided to try one last time to tap on the rear brake
drums with a hammer......one of the Internet possible solutions....
and this time it fucking WORKED!
It was as if the Pocket Rocket
just decided to work,
as suddenly as it had locked up--it unlocked???
as suddenly as it had locked up--it unlocked???
I immediately did the happy dance in the garage!!!!
My Pocket Rocket, diesel Smart for Two, has been running
perfectly since this singular incident---
The moral of the story I guess, is that
there are times when fear, doubt and procrastination
can actually provide positive results---?
but just in case---I have vowed
TO NEVER-EVER USE THE PARKING BRAKE AGAIN !
The day the Pocket Rocket fixed itself--
I walked back into the house from the garage
feeling totally huge--
"Yeah baby I fixed it, totally no problem for man of my skills."
But Donald Trump was a worse multi-millionaire asshole for
slamming him about being a P.O.W.
nuclear bomber.
It is completely strange that something that was so
incredibly dangerous to the human race..
could be so beautiful--
can be so outraged at every-fucking-thing--
except their own beliefs and actions?
over Cuba
finally ended this week.
Maybe there is hope for us----
insult that can be thrown at an opposition politician...
"He's a Socialist."
Doesn't work against Bernie Sanders....
He has called himself a Socialist his entire Political Career
and won.
Pointing a finger at him in a debate and screaming
Socialist, means nothing when he just says
'Yup'
Nobody fucking cares he's a Socialist.They care about what he is saying.
are attacking their Doctors over poor service they have received.
cure me or I'll kick your ass!
and this is wrong eh how?
It's official
My hero'sThe Lone Gunmen
will be part of the new X-files series.
The Lone Gunmen ride again
The Japanese are amazing.
They have specific verbiage for any and everything.
Lonely dudes in Japan who sit in their rooms playing
guitar for hours by themselves are called:
bochi guitarisuto
(Lone guitar)
No band, no friends.
But now thanks to a small machine
bochi guitarisutos can have an instant backing band for their
extreme but lonely grooves.
Nobody wants to play with me except this box...
I myself am a bochi guitarisuto
and i am going to look into one of these
for when winter comes and I start practicing again.
Wait-wait
did i just bitch slap my-own-self??????
On DVD
A Michael Mann movie--and therefore outstanding.
Strangely there are critic's that really panned this film.
Don't believe them--this film is excellent....
This was pretty good--but----
It was a little too much like Gordon Gekko goes hunting..
It was a little too much like Gordon Gekko goes hunting..
The 6 wheeled Mercedes SUV was the
third star of the movie.
We liked it because they filmed it in New Mexico
and perfectly displayed how my adopted state's climate
can kill you in a heartbeat--
