Talkative group this morning. I’m waiting in the parking lot of advance auto to open to buy brakes for the wife’s minivan, with it loaded with wood for the house. Everyone should own a minivan. As Brad Pitt said in Mr and Mrs Smith, “these doors are handy!”

Well, its like this Dave.

Our youngest daughter who "we didn't know if its a boy or a girl" was nameless bump until three weeks before birth in 99.

Then suddenly my wife said I like Morgan. Since his Saron Gas days, I've loved Shaun Morgan Welgemoed (later of Seether)...and here Gran Daddy was a kick ass drinking sailor and warfee, and after that rat bastard NZ Seafarers' Union president Dave Morgan . My website and given name when I was spiritually changed was Morningstar, so from German Morgen = ‘morning’. And to kappa it off, I love the Morgan three wheeler, and this was our third child.

And then Mumzilla said it best. "If you find a name I like more, then we'll call it that. But it has to be better than Morgan, and I have to like it more.

So Dave, its your choice. Your Snotch to change it, but only if you like it more....

Dave Morgan was Captain Morgan. The other, OTHER reason. But I don't want my darling little gurl to get a bad name. Seether, Morgan cars, and a hardcore union guy who refused to cripple the whole country when the Government got heavy handed, that's good enough....

My other daughter is Edie. Ever listen to Sonic Temple by The Cult? Gotta be carefull you don't speak too much over them, ya know! When Mama said I like Edie, I thought Edie Brickell. And I loooove Paul Simon, another Gracelands Suncity link. Sometimes its better not to be aware of too many things.....
 
Wow, there is some really deep thinking going on in here. I am slowly but surely getting a New Zealand history lesson/music appreciation course too.

I like the way BOOGERSNOTCH just rolls off the tongue.

:cheers:
 
No pics of the car or any work to it for 22 days.

He should run for Congress :shrug:


Booger is more “endearing “.

What can of beer did this idea come from?

So I think I need therapy............

I keep having excuses for not working on Booger (Does Snotchy sound better?, I’m sure that license plate isn’t gone in Oklahoma either).

These excuses seem valid, but still no Booger work, huh?

The latest was due to a facial incident which lead to a broken tooth. (Two over from the one I broke before visiting Mike). Luckily it broke down into the nerve and couldn’t get into the dentist for several days. Anyone remember The Marathon Man and Dustin Hoffman being asked if it’s safe? I kept yelling that at the receptionist without even a glimmering of understanding on their part........:nonono: It’s safe........It’s safe.......damn you......It’s safe!

So, anyhow, got the rest of the tooth ground down and a root canal done and have a gleaming new crown up front.

We have a long weekend in front of us, and what am I going to do? Remember that little red ‘93 notch from work? I’ll be painting it on monday to get it out of my life, I ended up doing the bodywork on it too. I got tired of seeing it just sit in the shop.

Now, tomorrow? That’s the question, what to do with tomorrow.

I have some fancy bacon to cook early on, but I have replenished my Dirty Bastard supply.........this could mean garage work. And wouldn’t it be just about damn time I ask you?

So, for you early risers tomorrow morning, if your hear from me by about six, you’ll know i really intend to move forward on this fox body of mine.
 
Cool. I'll be up about 6 or 630 cooking pork myself. I'll be throwing the fire to the smoker and putting a 8.9 lb Boston Butt on. 7 hours or so later, it will get wrapped in a blanket and stuff in my cooler. Then about 6 tomorrow night, I'll shred that :poo: into sweet pulled pork heaven! In between, while the smoke wafts across that hunk of divine swine, I'll be deciding if I am wiring the MSD in, or removing it and selling it and just wiring the TFI back into the Commander 950.

I hope you get the urge...even a drunk urge to work on poor neglected Booger !
