Too cold to work outside and since I had some work to do on the computer, thought I'd clean up the hard drive a bit. So here are a few of my favorite things before I hit the delete button: motorcycles, black & white photos of girls, girls on motorcycles (whether color or B&W), metalworking, boxing, and travel. Good to be somewhat multi-dimensional I suppose.
I received an e-mail from Cosmos (the outfit I went to Europe with last year) containing some new travel trips for 2015. I just might have to work a little longer so I can do this one. There was an article about money buying happiness in the Wall Street Journal the other day. They compared the purchase of a thing such as a fancy car versus an experience such as a trip to Europe. You would think because a thing is a tangible item you can see and touch it would buy more happiness. Not necessarily so, according to the article. I'd have to agree. Nothing I own can compare with my travel adventures. So I guess money can buy happiness. Time to start a new travel jar.
Took the brake drum/sprocket assembly off the rear wheel the other day. I started sandblasting it but was having an issue with condensation in the air line plugging up the gun due to running the line into the non-heated part of the shop. Looks like that will have to wait a bit until it warms up. Maybe next weekend.
My buddy Jimmy is now promoting wrestling. I took the grandsons to check out the show last night. Like all professional wrestling, pure cornpone. Pretty much had all the bases covered though - garbage cans, folding chairs, smack talk and Chuckles the Clown, but you would expect that from an outfit calling itself Acme Championship Wrestling. He's putting on a boxing show next weekend. I'll be working that one.

Looks like a great selection from Cosmos. Every catalog I get from them sends my imagination racing. Perhaps next time I'll get a bit more sleep and be a bit more energetic.
Kevin says summer of 2016 - that'll give you plenty of time to rest up.
I wish I could drop everything and spend a whole summer over there traveling around. If I could get another Lily grant, I'd focus on the great cathedrals of Europe and be able to do just that. Next time we do breakfast we'll have to start planning.
I took the picture of Joe Boris.
Sorry - I knew that. Since I was pulling things off the hard drive I didn't have any idea where the other pictures came from and your's got lumped in with them.
