Finally finished shoveling as well. Gonna call that good for working out today.
About to shower then shovel, then drink beer and play songs on the guitar, or clean. Whichever wife lets me do.

I'm not a hardcore fan anymore, but I used to be into it hard. For those that don't know, I used to race circle track in the early 90's.
Having a discussion with my GF today with the Vegas race on in the background, I wanted to share an idea with you good folks. She can't stand the sport of racing at all, sucks to be her on that, but.... for some damn reason I felt compelled to offer some commentary on it. You're welcome.. :)
I do not stand up for what most people consider nascar fans to be, yes I have some white trash in me, can't help that much. (car seat*covers*on the lawn chairs?)…. I tried to tell my GF that the science behind the technology that goes into all the cars you see on the track, is basically equivalent to the same level of science that NASA is doing.
All people see on TV is cars turning left, and they make fun of it......all the while having zero idea of what went behind making that vehicle turn left the best and the fastest it can, using incredibly studied factors. Every square inch of anything on those cars are "engineered" to be exactly the best they can possibly be. Try going into a corner at 90 mph... these guys are doing it at 184 mph.
In no way is this a challenge to determine superior racing formats, I just wanted to share that the car racing community really has some extremely brilliant minds behind it.

Cool.... it's funny you mentioned it. I took a long time making that post.
I had to go down to Aurora to pick up my kid.
Road condition are horrible on i225 ,and i225 to i70
junction.
Speaking of auto race.
I was a huge F1 fan during 3.0 v10 era.
I did watch a little during 2.3 v8, but rarely watched after they got rid of refueling policy.
I thought grooved tires (98-08) were bad, but not compare to what they did after.
Taking 1 less variable (fuel capacity+ weight variance ,fuel) made the sports much linear.
On top of that 6 cylinder+ers made the sports really boring.
Screaming turbos made f1 cool.... But my interest in it has declined along with the changes/reasons you detailed
Joey Logano won the NASCAR race in Vegas
I had to go down to Aurora to pick up my kid.
Road condition are horrible on i225 ,and i225 to i70

I was blowing by cars (very few, but out there) on e-470 at 0330-0430 this morning to and from DIA on e-470. Some of these drivers were running scary slow (as I was doing 70+ on hard pack). I did slow for a few while passing, because you never know when one of these idiots will crowd you or come into your lane.
FWIW, I'm running AWD with torsen diffs, Blizzaks and 42+ years driving experience, very much of it in the snow including 3 years in DE running the A-bahn...

should ice be coming out of the vent circled in red?

No, there shouldn't be moisture in the attic. That is the inlet vent so air goes in at the eaves, then out through the box vents or ridge vent, or whatever is on top of the roof.
ok, so time to call the roofing company who did the new roof, then, it sounds like?
I don't think that'd be a bad idea. Take a peak up in the attic now and see if you see icicles hanging off of nails, or any other signs of moisture up there.
Attic is massively filled w/ insulation.
I know, but if there are icicles hanging down from the vent AND you have a moisture issue, you'll have signs on the bottom of the roof sheathing where you can see it above the insulation.
ok, well, I'll likely just call them and let them handle it.
Thank you for the info!
I'm just saying it's worth a peak. If you see frost everywhere, you'll have the proper level of concern in your voice when you call. Don't need to climb around, just open the hatch with a flashlight.
I cannot remember if my inside step stool ladder can get me up there. I'll give it a go if possible. Either way, if there shouldn't be ice there then they need to come out and take a look anyway.

Wives usually do.
So 3m eraser wheels rock! Would highly recommend them for getting the stubborn spots of adhesive off. Weather holds out I should be done with the wrap tomorrow and then I can do some touch up and wax it.
I have a few of those eraser wheels myself. I think the last time I used them was to remove the adhesive left from a large trim/decal thing on the tailgate of my Nissan Frontier.
I wish I would have started with one but at the same time I would have probably went through about 3-4 if I didn't peel. I have about 40% left of the van to peel and a half a wheel left to hopefully get whatever residue is left.
Wives usually do.
Not mine. She can drive around with the low tire light on all day and doesn?t notice a thing. Heck, even after the tire comes apart it takes her a while to figure that out.
Unless those icicles were hanging down from the living room ceiling I doubt she would notice.

Hey, I was gonna say that's all I did today was work with 12 year old cracked, sun beaten reflective striping...yay. Most of the day tomorrow as well. Mazin, I've used those wheels before too, most body shops do. You have to be careful with speed and heat, especially with older oxidized paint. The shit I was telling you about the other day only requires the adhesive cleaner and won't hurt the paint, and it's probably the same time involved in the end.

It's a Chevy cargo van (I think it's a 2500). I'm going in on a startup with a member here (inactive). We should have been live by the 15th but our main piece of equipment keeps getting its build date delayed.

Thanks fellers, it's got some cool features on it that I didn't expect. Strong D rings already welded up at the front, bearing buddies, radials out of the gate, and the ramp storage.
It has a vertical crossbar at the front as well, about 8 inches up, and welded up brick shithouse looks like.
Damn sounds like you made some progress!

I've not made much progress on the truck, and it bothers me. I showed the guy at the trailer place I got the flatbed from (because he asked about it), a pic of the truck with the bed installed, and he really liked it. Commented about it a couple of times.

Try the Marie Callender?s large pot pies. They are big enough for an adult meal. And they taste great.

Bearing buddies on a dry trailer (not a boat) are, IMHO, shit.
Dexter axles with the ez-lube spindles are nice. Otherwise, just repack em by hand once a year or more.
China bomb tires are shit too unless they're Sailuns. If they're G rated or higher, you may be OK. E rated and they're probably junk china tires.
I'm working now. Doing a system cutover (remotely).
Fuck. Our scheduled 3PM start got pushed to almost 7 due to other unrelated issues they were having and the data save took longer than expected.

Got done restoring data around 0100, dinked with a few minor issues. Now we're waiting on their app dev folks to fix their shit cause they decided to roll an upgrade into our migration instead of doing it on the source.

I have these Dexter ez-lube on my new RV.
Boat trailer has bearing buddies but I'm not a big fan of them.
[ETA] I'm tired. Now that I think about it, my boat trailer also has the Dexter axles. it was my jetski trailers that had the bearing buddies.

The trailer I have already is still a good one, and it will be for sale soon. If anyone is interested in a 16 ft tandem axel car trailer, wood deck replaced about 5 years ago now....in good condition. Doesn't have brakes on it, and will be reasonably priced especially for members. I do have ramps for it as well.
I will throw in the LED light kit I already bought for it, before I decided to get a new trailer.

We might buy some chicks next Friday at bigR.
There?s a Big R right by my house.
That would save me from having to go down to Colfax to pay for chicks.

Got my trailer...need a 3" inverted drop to get the ride height correct. Didn't think to ask what the tongue ball size was the other day, 2 5/16..but they gave me the ball to put on the 2" drop I had. Bought a spare wheel/tire for it too. Axels are the EZ lube like Brutal was talkin' bout.
It's strange we have "ins" on car parts and accessories because of the volume we buy, including tires and wheels...but for some reason it doesn't apply to the trailer industry. At least in my experience.
Congrats on the new battle trailer!

Thank you. I do have what is in the early stages of a priceless truck (imo anyways) to move to AZ. 900 miles of hard work and love might not make it there without stepping it up a bit. It is time to get serious about getting my stuff down there. I have stuff in four different locations, I'm getting older and hurt all the time, I got an estimate in the works for professional movers to load, drive, and unload. Magic finger type stuff....more reasonable than I originally anticipated. Or I should say less than.

There is another vehicle, lots of bitter family bullshit going on with that. Been told I get the title more than once, no title yet.
I'm about to just say fuck it, and you, at the same time.
It would be nice if everyone had the Ozzie and Harriet family. I figure the greater percentage of us did not.

I went downstairs to do some laundry and when I opened the dryer it was full of stuffed animals.
