In Oct 2008, when we were picking up my boat, diesel was like $4.50 a gallon when we stopped to fill up.
I had just bought a boat with twin big blocks.
Just makes me that much more pissed that the Ministry of Meddling ruined all those cool old cars.

Waste money making sure foreign car manufacturers made big profits due to the generosity of the American Politicians with their tax payer's money?
The government, releasing final data on the car incentives, said Wednesday that dealers submitted 690,114 sales totaling $2.88 billion, bringing the program to a close under its $3 billion budget. Japanese auto manufacturers led American companies in new car sales through the program. Average cost to taxpayers was $24,000 per vehicle sold. The Toyota Corolla was the most popular new vehicle purchased under the program. The Honda Civic, Toyota Camry and Ford Focus held the next three top spots.

I dunno...the exploder is running again. Did my taxes yesterday...why buy a new truck with the return when I can buy a 4.25 crank, with corresponding rods and pistons for the avanti...then all Iwill need are heads, springs and odds and ends... A man has prioritys... Why on earth would I buy a new truck to use everyday when I can spend every last dime making the boat I use on weekend 4 months out of the years 25 miles an hour faster????
Speaking of which, anybody got a decent set of heads?? Not gm cast.. got my eye on edelbrock marines right now... maybe brodix, dart afr..etc...

I am no help. I bought the truck and two sets of AFR heads. I have someone in mind to pay for all this at some point.
They call that person "executor of the estate."

You don't want me. I would be a long length of stay but no GIP. Then, when the OIG finds the fraudulent diagnosis later, things could get ugly.
Meanwhile, I am tying up your music therapist, spiritual caregivers, volunteers, massage therapist, and everybody else on the team because I'm bored. I believe in calling hospice early. But not THIS early.

No, not Alzheimer's.
Try a V91.07XA.
Or a W22.02XA.
But I really don't think I am Hospice appropriate.

Those 2 arent.. but If I take a baseline now, and reeval when you get back from miami, I can show the marked decline needed to get you thru at least the first 90 day cert period. The second 90 will be aa little more difficult, but still doable... Where we run into the problem is after 180 days, you go to 60 day recerts and certification needs to be done by a higher level.....
