    I got on there back when I started this obsession shortly before I got into Polk speakers. These two are the only forums I'm affiliated with.....used to be racing forums B)

    Happy Birthday, gentlemen!

    So, what will tonight's din-din be? Inquiring minds want to know. Deep dish Yak d**k, sprinkled with some Casu Marzu and fried crickets, with a side of tuna eyeballs? Do tell...

    Happy birthday @Willow !!

    Thank you Ken!!!!

    Tonight's dinner....Pretty simple but pretty good. Ground beef tacos!!

    So, it's been years however, I'm painting the server rack, coming along nicely btw. Yesterday, I had a guy in the paint dept unlock the cage where the paints are kept.

    Today, I go in for a different finish to spray on and ask the same guy, "Hello again, would you unlock the paint cage again for me?"

    He looks me dead in the eye and says, "Sorry, the paint cage is closed today". You could see the disappointment on my face when I replied, Oh, that's not good, when will it be opened again?

    Everyone there, staff and customers alike are looking at me when he says, "April Fools"

    Lol I told him it was my birthday and congratulated him on executing the one thing no one else has been able to do for over 40 years. Hook line and sinker man
