This is probably a dumb question but if I only lower my car 3/4in or so would I need an alignment immediately. Obviously it's better to have an alignment but how bad would it be to go without one for a little while since I am not planning on dropping it that much?

For once, good news from the insurance company. :tup:

Full coverage on Z, liability only on DD: $34 for the month of May(about $100 off) :eek:

And about $20 taken off of this period's premium due to 'miscalculation of Kansas Premium" sometime between November 2013 to Jan 2020 :shakes head:

Well this post-Corona re-start is moving forward here in the retirement capital of the world.

The Golden Corral is going to open up today. Just saw this on the news....

I ate at a Golden Corral once.... and I'll never do it again. Good Lord, it looked like redneck heaven....:icon14: Unwashed, smelly kids and parents everywhere, mountainous piles of food on plates that was just left and nobody using utensils to pick up food from the serving trays. :barf:

Leingod 05-13-2020 09:22 AM

All the Ponderosa's closed around my area years ago. A golden Coral just opened about 45 minutes away. I have been tempted to try it out just to see how much disappointment it can compare to Ponderosa's.

Dont do it. Golden Coral is really bad. A few steps below Hometown buffet.

They vary pretty widely from location to location. I've been in several, most were good, one was truly bad. I will say after a week of hiking, or a couple days skiing, they are amazing. Garbage food always tastes amazing after too much physical activity.

This is a universal truth. It does cater to a certain clientele. I've never been in a golden corral where good looking well-dressed mannerly persons were the norm.

I know what you mean. When I was a kid, went fishing with my dad on a boat out in the SF Bay. We had a can of sardines and a loaf of bread. I was starving, put some sardines between some bread. OMG that was delicious..lol

I've eaten in settings that would make most people choke, dirt and dust everywhere, we hadn't seen showers in a week or more and the food was green (literally). But at GC, OMG..... Some of those people hadn't seen a shower in a month, the smell as I walked in the door was awful. Supervision of children was non-existent, it's like the parents just turned their kids loose to do whatever they wanted. We couldn't find a clean table anywhere, most were covered in trash and plates that were overflowing with food and no one in sight. :icon14:

We had to clear a table, I found a clean(?) towel and a bottle of something that said 'disinfectant', and sprayed and dried the table before I would even put a tray on it. Then I had some person come up and tell me that I needed to do their table. I laughed, handed them the towel & spray and said "Have at it"...:bowrofl:

You are bringing back memories from my time in Somalia. You would wear your uniform for as long as you could stand yourself. When I got home, I pulled my cloths out to wash them and I just about knocked my roommate out of his chair. Those cloths walked to the washer machine all by themselves.

I'd have to strip right inside the door of my apartment and head straight to the shower. Most times, it took 2 trips through the washer to get them clean. I did scare the hell out of a couple of Jehovah's Witnesses.. they knocked on the door as I was half dressed, still had my cartridge belt with 45 on, along with cammie trousers & boots. I grabbed a beat-up Bible I took to the field, flung open the door and bellowed "HAVE YOU HEARD THE STORY ABOUT JEEEEEESUS?' They ran....:rofl2::rofl2:

this is worse than people saying "dont post old senior pics because it's not fair to current seniors"

that makes total sense because every pic people post of previous zdayz makes me want to nuke china for this virus and ruining zdayz.

:shakes head:

:iagree: with you on the "nuke China" deal. We have had to cancel two vacations due to this virus, one being a trip to Vegas and our Vegas trip in August is not looking good!! :shakes head::shakes head:

I swear I saw a thread from Zingston about a US general toolbox... Dont see it now though. In any case, they are not too bad of a box. I think there is a large thread on garagejournal about modifications to their boxes and carts. :tup:

Ha ha... you're not losing your mind. :ugh2: I did post the question, and then watched a couple youtube video reviews. Decided it would work just fine for me.

Thanks for the follow-up on the question. I'll check out garagejournal too.

Leingod 05-13-2020 03:02 PM

Ordered a small little Weber Smoky Joe charcoal grill for myself because why not. Got Susan a nice pair of earrings fashioned out of old Bombay gin glasses since that's her favorite drink. And going to take next Friday off because work is starting to get to me.

Rusty 05-13-2020 03:23 PM

I'm a live. :icon14: Took the day off. I'm miserable. Passing a kidney stone. :shakes head: Started about 4am last night. It's slowly working it's way down. It's been a while since I passed a stone. I would never make it to ZDayZ with this. :shakes head:

It is because of all the stress you are under. Seen it cause them many times via co-workers and wife. You'll be good once the RV dealings is over with. Go watch some Queen, it will help calm the savage beast
inside you.

Feel better soon, man. Hopefully after the kidney stone, you'll be through with your bout of bad luck and ready to fertilize the money tree again.

Leingod 05-13-2020 04:29 PM

Jesus Rusty. Will you stop having bad luck? You're turning me into an alcoholic needing to have a drink for you every evening at this rate.

I hope you feel better buddy...
