Made it through the TSA and waiting at the gate. The security guy gave me a thorough pat-down including tracing his hands completely around my waistband. Neither mrs datlas nor daughter got that. Daughter says it’s because I look “ethnic.” Pot calling kettle black imo.

Anyway, took it back in to the shop and they say that it was a pinched oil filter housing gasket and that it should be all good, now.

Yeah, I'm not going to comfortable embarking on a 3k mile road trip with just that assurance, so Imma get under there and clean up the gunk, so that any new leaks will be a little more obvious, and then I'm going to keep some paper under the engine when it's in the garage, to make any drips obvious. *le sigh*

Same, and Mrs. Ksryder employed a similar strategy.

Now that I'm older I've had several moments where I suddenly recall some situation from my young and single days and realize "oh she was coming on to you" or even worse "oh that was a booty call". Feels bad, man.

Wrong forum.

I should make "Road Boss" videos where I show how I avoid getting crushed by tanker trucks on the Middlebrook Pike expressway.
