Christ-serving curmudgeon with far too many hobbies. Husband of one. Father of two. Blessed far beyond what I deserve. Don't Romans 1 your life away.

Has anyone ever seen the insides of one of these engines and can you identify what kind of engine it is?

Parents of boys: nearly every reading list out there telling you which novels your child will need to have read by which grade is produced by women. The "best" lists are filled with so-called classics whose primary audience at the time of writing was upperclass middle aged women. Female English teachers, homeschool moms, and teenage girls especially love these novels.
If you are trying to raise men, however, and insist that they be novel readers as well, at least give them books that are written by real men, for real men, about real men. The future will thank you.

Louis L’Amour, the “laureate of the lariat,” was born on this day in 1908. A veteran of World War II, L’Amour worked as an elephant handler, miner, merchant seaman, animal skinner, lumberjack, and professional boxer along his journey. His breakout novel, HONDO, was published in 1953. It was his novelization of the screenplay and film of the same name starring John Wayne based on L’Amour’s 1952 short story THE GIFT OF COCHISE. HONDO was published the day the movie hit screens with a blurb from John Wayne stating that HONDO was the finest Western he had ever read. Louis L’Amour published over 100 works during his lifetime including LAST OF THE BREED, one of the four novels that directly influenced my thriller, SAVAGE SON. The first and last chapters of LAST OF THE BREED are nothing short of brilliant. Louis L’Amour was presented with the National Gold Medal for lifetime literary achievement by Congress in 1983 and the Medal of Freedom by President Ronald Reagan in 1984. His life and work continue to influence today. Get to know the man behind the books through his autobiography, EDUCATION OF A WANDERING MAN. “I think of myself in the oral tradition – as a troubadour, a village taleteller, the man in the shadows of the campfire. That’s the way I’d like to be remembered – as a storyteller. A good storyteller.” – Louis L’Amour

Got to do some technically free charging today. My gun club has solar systems for power on some of our buildings. I was able to go from 60% battery to full in the 4 hours I was out there.

@farmingandJesus We're walking through Jonah. Chapter 3 today. I had the honor of reading the text today.

When my wife and I were dating we were going to the mall (that was still a thing back then) and I lose my mind over some car in the parking lot (Ferrari or Corvette I can't remember) and I hear her mumble behind me "I know how to compete with another woman. I don't know how to compete with a car."
I always remind her she knew what she was getting into way back then by getting involved with a car guy :)

When I was dating my wife, we were eating breakfast over at her apartment one Saturday morning. She is going on about some drama she experienced the previous week and I am listening and nodding along. Then I hear the distant sound of womp, womp, womp. I knew it was one of those dual bladed big military helicopters. I sprung up and immediately ran outside to see it flying low over the complex. Quite the site to behold. My then girlfriend/wife to be, stares bug eyed at me. What was that!? She asks. I excitedly reply, it was a big ole helicopter! wasn't it cool? No. she says, you getting up like that. Do you always do that in the middle of eating? I enthusiastically respond, When I hear a helicopter, Yes! Yes I do!

@AntiLeftMemes I was 7 years old and the Independence Day celebrations were huge.

Just in case I wind up rebuilding the Volt's pack over the Summer. Not sure I'm there yet but my internal resistance is higher than I'd like. Also ironically my cell #10 is also less than ideal.

@Chris_Hohnholz @HwsEleutheroi I've heard it said that all the orange tabbys in the world timeshare a single brain cell. The way our two orange tabs acts sometimes makes me believe that.

When trust is low, transparency needs to be high. you don’t restore trust through lectures and PR. You restore trust through humility, integrity, accountability, and transparency.

@TheJaredPink It's funny how life is a mixed bag sometimes. You have the ongoing mess from the accident but at the same time got to have that wonderful experience at GM with 212.

@TheJaredPink We're working through Jonah at Church and one of my many study Bibles has lots of Charles Spurgeon quotes. Thought you'd appreciate this one that was applied to Jonah 2.

More than 5 months later and still no resolution from the auto accident. I conceded some ACV to close, with the correct loss of use. And now they’ve ghosted me…. So now there’s 13 more days loss of use..

@MichelleDLesley More annoyance than trouble. It's started previewing reels WITH SOUND when my mouse passes over them and it's really annoying.

Anybody else having trouble with the web version of Facebook?

@WatchJRGo1198 @TheJaredPink Yeah my son noted that right away when we brought it back to life and several on the forum have said the same. Maybe I can up that average a bit. Have to be careful how much I pour into fixing the thing since it does have nearly 203k miles.

@ScottJ175 @TheJaredPink Wow lifetime on that is terrible 😳 someone used gas all the time! Lifetime on my 1st Gen was way over 100mpg

@WatchJRGo1198 @TheJaredPink have a successful full system test. Only 1/4 tank when I bought it so I used a drive out to fill up as an excuse to run to battery depletion and ICE cutover which happened seamlessly without issue. Now maybe I trust it to use like a regular car.

There are some balance concerns though. Cell #10 is a bit weak. Some on the Volt forum say a code will throw when there's a 200-300mv variance and I'm close at 153. I saw variance of 48mv fully charged.
