I like my boss too.

I'm self-employed.

Really though, EVERYONE that calls me is my boss!

24 HOURS?...Not really. I can't answer the phone if I don't hear it ringing.

"What's that you say? You called at 11PM and only got voice-mail?! I'm going to have to have a talk with my after-hours guy."

Talking Its 9:30PM and I'm back from work, again.

OK. I'm back.

Another day's pay, but its 9:30PM.

"Making hay while the sun shines," so to speak.

Thursday will be another busy day, God willing and the creeks don't rise again.

But we did have a major gasoline spill here in Murrysville, Pa. It closed down route 22 and a few stores are still closed because of the gas odor.

Bummer for ALL the EMPLOYEES at Atria's Restaurant. They had to cancel around 800 reservations because of it!

The Man upstairs is good to us. After nearly twenty years at this business, its finally taking-off like a VTEC, er, I mean rocket.

Later,

A cold day at work! Sleepy.

Man, I don't know my hp right now at 10psi. I should schedule a day for a dyno, but man, this weather is just too cold. I run more lean the colder it gets.

~Running lean~

Would that be simply corrected at the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, or did your TB mod do away with the IAT sensor?

The IAT is still there. I was at I think 37 degrees outside, my IAT was at 48 degrees. Ran very lean at 13.4. Turned down my boost so I don't kill my engine in the cold.

This morning, when I started my car, my IAT read 31 degrees. When I was on the freeway, it went up to around 42 degrees and stayed there until after I exited.

Wishin' I could leave already. Plan on doing shopping after work.

We'll be having our department Christmas party next monday. It'll be after work hours, so we can drink if we want to.

We'll also be doing the white elephant thing as well.
