Found pictures! I'm so incredibly bored, I'm looking through my laptop and found some pictures from Juneau, Alaska I had never uploaded. Out on the Queen Mary 2 again for a video project for Electrolux. Going to try and win a new kitchen full of appliances - they're having a drawing. Hey, you never know.

The new pictures are in the photo gallery under 'travel pictures'. I was going to add a link here, but as it turns out, I'm an idiot. Can't remember how to get links to work right from the blog anymore. Oh well, looks like entertainment for tomorrow, then, doesn't it?

Okay, big day today. Took the entire front end back off of the truck, to replace the cab mounts. The front bumper hasn't lined up since I rebuilt the truck after the accident, and I noticed while working on the mirrors that the cab wasn't level relative to the bed. It seemed to me that if the driver's rear of the cab was low, it would make the passenger front fender high because it ultimately lines up off of the cab. So, off we go with the cab mounts. It turned out that the cab is actually damaged at the driver's rear, near the cab mount, so I shimmed it with a 3/16 plate and that leveled out the cab. Bolted everything else back up and aligned the hell out of it, and sure enough, the damn bumper still doesn't fit. There was a question about the radiator support mounts when I did that, and I used the later style ones, which are a little taller, so that may account for some of it, but the passenger side is definitely still screwy, which leads me to believe that the frame is tweaked. Oh well, when I get that far, the body shop will deal with it. I'm very close to having my bed cover lift working the way I want it to - took the weekend off of that to do the cab mounts, and I think I know how to build the hinges for the front hood after checking it out the other day. Got the milling machine set up and have been making some small parts, and just got though building a DRO for the mill. Have to buy scales to hook up to it, and then the mill should be pretty spiffy. Other than that, it's the usual circus around here.... Enjoy some pictures in the gallery - had the laptop doing a time-lapse style automatic photo thingy while I wasted my time today.

&. That's the answer. For nearly 3 weeks, my web page has been screwed because of a missing '&'. Good thing I'm not in this to make money, huh? I'd certainly have starved to death by now. Oh well, that being the case, we now return you to your regularly scheduled boredom. I should have some pictures from Hong Kong up in a few days, so at least you'll have that to look forward to.

Well, if you made it this far, you've figured out that I really screwed up somehow with the web page. I recently 'upgraded' some of the software that runs the page, and made some other changes, but it's gotten worse. It's not the absolute highest thing on my priority list right now, but I am waiting for assistance from the software guys to fix it. In the meantime, we'll all just have to click on the 'home' link in the main menu to get in. Frustrating? Yep.
