    • * Anyone remember me!? Been almost 2 years since I visited and posted. Life is short and unpredictable; treasure every moment. I logged into social media Saturday afternoon (09.14.2024) for the 1st time in over a year and quickly discovered a few more friends had died. One in particular from my "heart circles", Lorraine, was 1 of the 1st to meet up with me after Dan's death because she knew we'd be laughing hysterically as usual from our conversational topics; laughter was surely needed. Another, Rich, from my automotive and Route 66 circles, had shown me his 1973 Monte Carlo he bought brand new when I visited him the 1st time during my 2009 Route 66 road trip (15 years ago now); at the time, it was in his barn and covered in dust, but he'd recently gotten it out and I never had a chance to see it in person. NEW LAW Read about a new piece of legislation I sparked with inquiries about processes following a death: https://patch.com/illinois/elgin/rep-moeller-sen-edly-allen-work-save-lives-fentanyl-law-nodx BACK ON WRMN I am sssoooo excited to announce I have returned to the airwaves, LIVE every Saturday night, 7p-9p US central, on my hometown radio station, Elgin's 1410 AM. You can hear me ANYWHERE online or via mobile app. Check out the details, along with the playlist from the 1st broadcast last Saturday, 09.14.2024: https://www.cdshowcase.com/2024-cd-showcase/   PEACE | Cort, pig and cow valves with pacemaker 2003 MGM LS + 1981 cmc SC; need 1975 Chrysler Cordoba "I ain't ready for the junkyard yet" | George Jones | 'I Don't Need Your Rocking Chair'
    • How it started: How it's going: Funny story - apparently those spark plug covers with the "4 Valve" silver lettering have been out of production for years and you can only get reproductions with no lettering or black lettering.  I knew I needed a set way back when I first bought them and grabbed them on an e-bay auction randomly only because I thought they looked better than the plain ones. I didn't realize I was grabbing something made of unobtanium. 
    • This is very cool and exciting technology Solid-state battery with 1,070 Wh/L energy to be game-changer for EVs (interestingengineering.com)  
    • I'm not much a fan of casinos either. Buuuuuut, I do enjoy sports betting.
