Project $ 3 K Is Underway

I just opened a nice bottle of Chardonnay I have been saving for a special occasion. Figure, what the hell, might as well drink it while I still can. :eek: :eek: :LOL: :LOL: Couldn't find a corkscrew, had to use a phillips screwdriver.

Don,

Silicosis (potter's rot) is the reason they stoped using sand for sandblasting many, many moons ago. There are other media available that are less dangerous, and cause less damage to the underlying metal.

I use a product called JetMAG. The local suppliers carry it. I just looked up "sandblasting supplies" in the yellow pages.

With the small amount of blasting you have done, I doubt if you'll have any problems - especially if you wore a mask. You DID wear a mask, didn't you? If it's any consolation, I'm sure you'll keel over from all those paint fumes before the sand gets you . . . :LOL:

Let's see, between the cheap chardonnay, the paint fumes and the sand he'll be stewed, pickled, and dessicated! PERFECT!!! :D

Corkscrew?? Why did you need a corkscrew? I thought Ripple had a screw-off cap...:confused: :eek: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

Ah yes, Yellow-Birds where the drink of choice in the dorms (T-Bird & O J)consumed by the pitcher it was great for giant hangovers and no memory of anything is for sure!! Hurts just thinking about it.

Damn denny im shocked you would know about any of those brands, mostly the good ol night train, but i tell you what if you drink enough you will swear you got run over by one.

What the heck was I thinking??? I woke up this morning with my first hangover in a long long time ! :eek: :eek: Since I couldn't find the corkscrew, I drove the cork (YES, IT HAD A CORK :D ) down into the bottle with a phillips screwdriver, so then I couldn't recork it to drink the remainder later. Sooooooooooooooooo, I drank the whole thing. :D Actually, it was a pretty good bottle of wine, given to me by a customer who owns a liquor store, so it went down like water.

As for the dust mask. Well, we BOUGHT a couple, but didn't use them. :o Got busy and forgot. At least we were outside with a good breeze blowing, so maybe that will help. I can't even use young and dumb for an excuse. Maybe old and dumb would fit better. :o

High Potency (18% ABV) citrus flavored fortified wine. A BUM WINE, in a family with Wild Irish Rose, Cisco, Maddog 20/20, and its next of kin Night Train. It is made by the same company that manufactures Night Train. Has a terrible yellowish color and foul odor. Taste terrible. Dirt cheap. Bum wines are the best bang for your buck when trying to get drunk on a budget.

Like its other Bum Wine Relatives.. T-bird seems to have some ingredient in it that makes the drinker go temporarily insane. Possibly liquid crack.

Do you remember some rot gut named Areba? It was worse than T-bird. :eek:

Mr. Twister was another one of that type. I think it was like 99 cents a quart.


Don

Jeeeezzzz, next you'll be mixin' Colt 45 and Slo Gin.............let's see, I guess that would be a "Pink Pistol"...............:rolleyes:

All I remember is that after drinking that cheap stuff, I woke up with some ugly women, Shame the cute ones that went to bed with me didn't stay till morning...............LOL
Brad

Back when I was on active duty in the Navy (20 years worth) we used to call them "wolfers". You'd go to sleep with a beauty and wake up next to something you'd rather gnaw your arm off than to wake her up to remove it from behind her head. :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

Don,
I was wondering, when you poked the cork in with the phillips screw driver if you got it to go inside the bottle the first time? If not and you had to poke it a few times the cork would start breaking up, then when you passed out and your mouth hung open you would have all these embarrassing little pieces of cork caught in between your teeth :LOL:
So, the next time you decide on a binge like that put a 5/16 washer on top of the cork before you push it in with the phillips screw driver.
I'm just trying to help :3dSMILE:
Ken

Sounds like the voice of experience to me Ken ! :LOL: :LOL: I actually got it to go in with one good shove, and it stayed intact with no pieces floating around. I would have strained it through a dishtowel if I had to, we were out of soda, so I was desperate. :LOL: :LOL:

Hey Brad, do you know the difference between an ugly girl and a knockout?

3 beers.:eek:

Don

Oh, on the car front...........I got my fuel lines routed tonight and about 3/4 done. We also shot 3 heavy coats of 2K primer onto Don's frame and it came out pretty good. Plan is to fill a couple of little booboos , sand it a little, and shoot blue on Wednesday night.

There is "Double Coyote Ugly!" You chew your arm off to leave and get home and realize she'll be looking for a one arm man so you chew the other off to through her off the scent!!
