I crawled around under the dash of the Roadie today searching for the issue with that’s preventing all of my windows from rolling down from anywhere other than the drivers door. While digging, I discovered that the interior has been wet for some time. The drivers side carpeting is dry to the touch but the…
Well, I’ve started working on some of the issues that are preventing the Roadmaster from passing the safety and emissions tests. The car has consistently been failing the NOX portion of the emissions testing in our area. I rolled the Roadie out of the garage today to have a look at the EGR valve. I’ve…
Well it was an eventful day. The Mrs. and I headed off this morning to pick up my new Roadmaster wagon. We paid for the car, transferred the ownership and put a temporary plate/sticker onto it so that it could be driven home. I had no problems with the car at all on the way…
Well the seller of the ’94 Roadmaster Estate wagon that I’ve been hoping for has returned my calls at last and we’ve reached a deal. The car is a little over an hour away so the Mrs. and I are headed on a road trip tomorrow morning to pay for the car and bring it…

Having already spent many hours re-reading any Conan the Barbarian comic books that I owned I was pleased to discover that Solomon Kane is another Robert E. Howard character. While the cover art for the first…
I love toys! From simple die-cast cars to nifty electronic gadgets. Toys are just cool. As I’m no longer technically of toy-playing age, I focus more and more on the supercool toys of my youth. Many times I’ve picked up an old toy in a thrift store or a garage sale so that I could…
A bomb threat was reported at the Downtown Guelph Canada Post office this morning. I’m not certain if a suspicious package was noticed or a threat was phoned in. Based upon some eyewitness accounts from Post Office staff it seems likely that a threat was called in. Police gathered around the Canada Post office around…
I think we’re all aware that I’m a little bit behind on current trends. I enjoy things when I enjoy them. Be it books, movies, games, or TV, when I watch them doesn’t do anything to detract from their quality. Right now I’ve (finally) just gotten around to finishing up volume 1 of the comic…
