i’ve been working independently for a good portion of the week. I’ve gotten caught up on my to-do list. The things I need to do are waiting for information from my boss or the client. Hes preoccupied with other stuff. I have a feeling this won’t be the last DOTS today as I’ll probably do a lot of staring out the window.

other things :

my grill:

its seem better days. Out side its ok but the internal fire-y bits are hurting. I lit it the other day and the drip/flame shield just kinda crumbed to the ground. The jets aren’ t even any more. I noticed my house has an external natural gas hook up. I want to get a c onversion kit but they dont make it specifically for my grill (basic Home Depot model) Can i get a generic setup and retro fit it to my grill?

my fire pit:

its seem better days. It originated from some concrete blocks I found laying around from the previous owner. there was a bush I wanted to get rid of so I circled the bush with the blocks, added some gas and bye bye. I’ve been working on dismantling a rock wall but the rocks are not exactly great for stacking. some are better than others. any ideas?

2004 R32 in best color.

My dad’s is generic silver, but with 50k miles and garaged/babied since day 1. It’s almost like a time capsule since everything works perfectly 15 years later, including the tape deck.

Some rocks for the counterweight, the rest for the ammunition.

2004 VW “everything works perfectly 15 years later” what do you think this is craigslist?!? I’m a little skeptical of that.  I know how 15 y/o VWs/ Audis are.

Same with almost every VW/Audi they’ve had.

They take perfect care of them, don’t do a daily commute, have no young kids or pets to break stuff, always go to the dealer at the first sign of problems.

Then they say “I have no idea why VW gets such a bad rap!”

“always go to the dealer at the first sign of problems”

Let’s just say these are the types of problems that I consider “normal quirks”

My 2001 VW still has better build quality than our 2015 Honda, if only it didn’t have one foot in the grave. Electrical stuff, almost all of it. Such a PITA.
