This gem just showed up in the mail courtesy of my sister-in-law...
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

I suspect it will actually feel good to get back to work. All of the KC Auto Museum people finally returned to the museum today. While the law office staff have always been at their desks, the auto museum people had been banished by the museum's executive director until June 1st. It is a lot more fun around here now.
Today, they fired up the 2019 Ford GT which was sitting directly below my office. The curator stopped by my office about an hour later to say "Hi". He said "hey, don't know if you heard it, but we fired up the GT today." Me (with a big grin): "Yeah. I heard it."

I was warned not to touch it. Well, "threatened" is a better word.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
After manufacturing and pandemic delays, finally got the wife's new Hasselblad today that was supposed to be a xmas/anniversary/valentines gift.
Forgot to get a memory card for it, cause of course you can't just slap in any old card
Oh well... I'm pretty good at waiting at this point...
