Today we were messing with upper and lower ball joints. Rented a tool (that I now own) to remove them. Needless to say, ("Ball joints - +1, Me -$117.00"). The little BASTIDS. We tried everything from talking nice to the one SOB ball joint that held out, to a 20 ton press. IT FSCKING WON. Dynamite tomorrow.
It's cold here but I'd be freezing my nuts off in Minnesota.

I know the drill. There are instances where my time is worth more than my money. I have found ball joints and other front end work to be one of those instances. By the time you rent the special tools (requires at least two trips to get what you need, and usually several more for the tools you forgot or didn't realize you needed) or buy the specialty tools, and fight with the damn things, I just go to this guy who does superior front end work and especially alignments, (which I have to take to him anyway) and pay him to do it. By the time you total up both scenarios, I have found (for me anyway) that it's been way more cost effective to let Gary do that part while I devote my time and other resources to doing other stuff that needs to be done on the car/truck. Besides, from where I live, it's a pretty far piece to get to any kind of real auto parts store.

Anyone one know about the rock game on Facebook? You paint and hide river rocks in your community. Each county, city, (however your locale is set up) can start a Facebook page dedicated to the group. People interested may join and either paint rocks and post pictures of them and leave clues to hiding places or you can hunt rocks based on clues and you may either keep the rock or hide it yourself.

Don't use Photobucket anymore. They have been ransoming images
http://nypost.com/2017/07/05/how-photobucket-is-now-shaking-down-its-users/
Photobucket, an image and video hosting website founded in 2003, quietly changed its policy late last month to prevent users from hosting their content on third-party websites unless they pay a $400 annual fee.Members who used the previously free service to store their content for use on auction sites, blogs, and internet forums have discovered their images replaced with a message asking them to “update your account.”
No warning was given, but the company posted a brief blog post (http://blog.photobucket.com/update-terms-service/) on June 26 announcing an “update to our terms of service,” with the change buried towards the end of the article.
I use Imgur myself.
