"Bengay Barge" ? Getting a little hard on usselves, uh?

What's that garment/sacrament/scarf thing draped over the BobD's grab-handle? Looks kinda serious.

Oh, and regarding that engine? Good luck with that. Sheez.

Have a good rest BobD. Hopefully when you wake up, the ecomony will be in better shape, your owner will be finished with his book, and he can show you all the cool places in this here Country as he embarks on the 2010 IAC tour :flower: .

Hope that your brother Lexus didn't leak too much coolant on the storage space floor (got to watch those darn water cooled engines). :joker:

Why would we not? :scratch:

As long as Amesan is sleeping overnight in the garage ultimately, we are good with whatever you wish to do on the Lexus, Colin.
How long do you estimate this repair to take Mr. Mechanic?

Alex, I'll guess 2 days for Colin to do the timing belt and valve adjustment on the Lexus.....

Is he showing off the shiny paint job or the scratch in the taillight lens?

Looking at the reflection in the tail-light lens, you can distinctly see him standing in front of the storage units.

and he's holding a bag of walnuts.

Colin, I asked and J cleaned the right side of the garage. The only thing on that side is our two bicycles and a piece of mdf and a piece of wood for a workbench. It's all ready for ya now. More roomy. Our weather is supposed to be sunny/blue skies next week.
