Reviewing my reject reports this morning, a customers account was charged by a company called WTSEticket.

A quick google on my phone told me that this is company that pr0n sites use for subscriptions

Well, it was actually at home. We had a "memorable" Christmas...tracing things probably back to 20th when there was a gathering of friends and their kids. Two of the families that showed up had kids who had symptoms they were ill...So, fast forward to last week and this: Little Cha has early pneumonia (according to his chest x-rays yesterday) and both me and the wife have viral brochitis.

The wife and I are feeling a bit better but the little guy is still out for the count...

Keeping him hydrated as much as possible. Hopefully the prescribed antibiotic will turn things around for him.

And everyone at the party? Yeah, apparently everyone else got sick too. Good times. Merry Xmas.

Damn, homie. That sucks big time. My brother and his wife always give me the stink eye when one of their kids is sick and coughing/coughing/hacking at the dinner table and I refuse to eat whatever is in the path of their sick kid's direction of spewing germs.

I'm like wtf, why should I be cool with getting sick? What's wrong with you people?

Yea some people are just too damn idiotic/selfish about that crap. If You or your kid is sick, don't show up.

Yup...I'm trying to think of a polite why to say: "IF YOU OR YOUR F*CKING KID ARE SHOWING SYMPTOMS OR HAD 5 DAYS AGO...DON'T SHOW UP."

The stressful part is Little Cha already has challenges keeping his weight up and he's dropped a bit since getting sick and won't eat...We're hoping his fever breaks tomorrow...or it's back to the clinic.

Before the complication with pneumonia and the fevers, we were at least able to open presents...

Yup. And I by no means am a germaphobe, but if I clearly see something that will make me sick, I'll avoid it.

Funny thing is, my brother and his wife always tell the kids "cover your mouth!" But then four seconds later...

Miz...did you shred the document after you realized it was in fact your own expense account billing that pr0n site?

Henry, great to see you...sorry about the sick babes...
Right now I'm getting the stink eye because B/Z stayed home from my family because they were sick. I went and represented and came home sick...so now I've been quarantined and B has had baby watch almost entirely alone!

Actually, it can feel a lot smoother considering you're replacing two main pulleys, new water pump, and not to mention a belt that is probably softer and weathered over the belt going in..

You tree goats failed to observe that noob mention he did it in 2 hrs. I could probably do it in 3-4 taking my time and being efficient. But first go, even with the diy.. Hell nah, and I'm sure I have more tools and more mechanically versed than that dude.

J, you dun goofed on yours, but give me your estimated time to do it. Let me guess.. 30 mins and $100.

Thousands of timing belts brah!!!!

Pulleys should be fine. If they're fucked, they'd likely shred the belt prematurely from wobbling, etc.

Belt should be fine. Wouldn't the tensioner keep it snug anyway?

Water pump, besides a leaking gasket, should rotate the same anyway.

After I upgraded my interior and fog lights to LED, my car has felt much more responsive and is noticeably faster. I think it's because there is less parasitic power loss from the more efficient lights. I'd estimate probably 10 to 15 hhp (Honda HP) more now and I still need to do the door lights but I think once those are in it'll be there me to go Viper hunting.

What are you fucknuggets doing for the New Year's Eve?
We have a party that starts at noon, that we'll attend, then leave to another party, then come back to that party for midnight.

Well, that's the plan with a 7 week old...
at least it's a neighborhood party!

AZ for sure. THAT place is the ultimate expression of 'murica.

Guns? Sure, conceal it or wear it on your hip - don't care.
Where to shoot? Just dive off into the desert and you're good to go.
Want a switchblade? Cool - buy one.
Oh, you want to drive an ATV on the street? - Just add mirrors and get a license plate.
Womens? Oh yes!
Beachfront property? Well, not yet, but buy something in Tucson and as soon as Cali drops off into the ocean you're all set.
Oppressive heat and blinding sun? 350 days a year - the remaining 15 are torrential downpours.

Fun!
