I don’t have a lift- yet- so working under the trucks this weekend sort of- well, tenderized me.

You have to get the pinion nut tight. It has a crush spacer in it and you have to make sure you don’t overdo it, but it has to be tight. Someone has to step on the brakes while you gank as hard as you can with your biggest cheater bar tight. Doing this with the head at an awkward angle while pressing against the side of the vehicle has put strain on muscles I haven’t used in a while, sort of like riding a horse for the first time in ten years. So I’m going to rub some Sombra on the affected areas that have no mucous membranes and drag my ass off to bed.

I really, really did. Everything about it looked like it was going to be awesome.

But Jonathan Rhys Meyers looks too damned much like Steve O. I keep expecting him to run through the set with a lobster clamped onto his pecker.

Just hard to take it serious with that mental image.

After the gunshow, Partner, Ed, and I went to Johnnie’s Round the Clock, and we introduced Ed to the Event Horizon of Suck.

Oh, the food is plenty good, and the waitresses (at least one of them) wears a black velvet skirt that draws men’s eyes to it like a magnet, but the music they play is horrible in a way that can’t be described without mutilation. The Chicken Shish-Kebab was amazing, and the lemon rice above par.

Then, that selfsame evening, we ate at Cafe Borgia It’s a little spendy, but Partner and his gf, Mr B, Midwest Chick, the Oglet, the Ogwife, Brigid, and I, ate there for something just under the national debt of Swaziland.

The Osso Bucco was to die for. The Oglet had a steak that was simply incredible. I’m sure Brigid would have taken pictures of the food, for it was picturesque, but by the time the food arrived it was alll “Flying Fists of Furious Forks” and the food got flayed before fotographs could be procured.(I was trying to work “Fondled” in there somewhere but “Procured was the best I could do) Well worth a trip, if you haven’t been there. I know the lunch specials during the week are a bit more reasonable, etc.
