(1-15-2008) - The Great White Lump

The current project in the shop is Flash's new toy. Something that I'm calling the Great White Lump - until it becomes a real car. It's a 1998 Beetle with a thrashed motor, broken glass and a smell that is either pee or puke, or maybe both. He's started pulling it apart to reconstruct it into a running car. The engine block has a fist sized hole in the side of it, and the plans are to try and braise the block (non-compression area) and get it back on the road as a driver. Only time will tell if this works out.

Sigue Sigue Sputnik, cars, IT, Flash.... this has GOT to be the Don I know from "Easy" in Hollister, Mo.

I'm hesitant to leave an e-mail (spammers-- burn in hell) but my latest "on the side" domains/web projects are www.gamersigs.net, www.websystemsadministration.com, and www.stupideststuff.com. (network solutions should be able to get you current contact information) Shoot me an e-mail, I'd love to catch up.
