I missed the anniversary of the wreck last Sunday. As much as I listen to the radio, you'd have thought I would have heard something, if not the song, someone mentioning it. As a side note, when my buddy Kevin and I did the Detroit half marathon, we ran by the Maritime Sailor's Cathedral. Of course, the song was stuck in my head from there to the finish line, which was the 50-yard line of Ford Field.
I've seen a lot of that attitude over the years - still see a bit of it at the community college level.
Speaking of which, I went to an advisory committee meeting last evening. I didn't feel like my presence helped much, but the food was good. I did talk to my boss about my assignment next spring. It appears I'll be teaching on the same nights Coach Jen wants to have boxing nights when she opens her gym/health club. I won't be teaching until the middle of March, but I'll be convalescing from eye surgery part of that time. I told the boss I'll honor the commitment, but if someone else is looking for more work it won't hurt my feelings if he gives my spot away.
Speedbag platform mount with the adjustable angles installed. I really like the look of the finished product, so I figured I should post it one more time.
I was going to bolt the VW engine on to the engine stand head I worked on a couple of weeks back, but the way the engine is sitting on the dolly, I need to lift up the engine a bit to have enough clearance to sneak the mount into position to bolt it on - maybe see if I can lift it up and throw a block under it today. I'd like to get that one checked off the list.
I cut some pieces for the sled for Coach Jen's gym. I think I've figured out how to make this thing using mostly scrap material I've come up with. I need to sit down and sketch out a plan to finalize the design and then get after it.
Lots to do, like always.
