I would hate to see what would have happen if you had a real problem to deal with. I hope they were able to repair your spaceship before Friday.crazybitch88https://www.blogger.com/profile/14206817540655103197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-13667337804388070062019-01-19T07:54:10.547-08:002019-01-19T07:54:10.547-08:00Well that's a fine idea, winning a big poker t...Well that's a fine idea, winning a big poker tournament. I'll see if I can arrange that.<br /><br />I've done longer posts than this one (in fact I think the next chapter will be a little longer) but as a multi-part, when this is all done, it will definitely be the longest story I've ever done. It's really gonna be novel-lengthed.

Woody and I braved the pouring rain to treat ourselves to a great restaurant about 30 minutes from our home. I checked to make sure it was open just because one time a few years ago it unexpectedly closed as a car rammed into it after exiting the freeway. Google Maps said open. Made it there through lots of water and flooding on the streets only to find it CLOSED. And, since it was rush hour we couldn't hop back on the freeway to return home.

When the suspect part is happy with the amount of oil it is exposed to it is quiet. When it is shorted on oil it becomes loud. I am not familiar with Lexus motors but it sounds like the bearing in question had a lubrication issue. Looking forward to hearing about the rest of this mechanical dilema!Lesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01221409127717174351noreply@blogger.com
