Could not get on NOTHING for a little bit this morning. But NOTHING wrong now. Wish those US Olympic Mixed Pair Curlers were doing better. They are doing almost NOTHING right.

Tal, I'm glad you posted this. At first, I thought it was just my phone acting up when I was checking in earlier today. But it seemed like it was just NOTHING and not the rest of TOTV. Wonder what was UP with that?!? Anyway, good to see you back on here.

Wonder if W has been under his car all day again today? Maybe he will do NOTHING but post the closing statement this evening.

Well, good night all my NOTHING friends. I have to get up early to go to work tomorrow and try my hardest to do NOTHING there as well.

The Thread About NOTHING
 
Sorry NOTHINGS but today I decided to disassemble my engine. Hell, I have NOTHING else to do. Today, my progress photo.

I’ll drop the exhaust tomorrow then pull the heads.

Here’s a pic of the crud on my intake valves. Hence the reason to pull the heads. There should be NOTHING on them.

If given the chance to live my life over, I would choose not to work for a living. This stuff is way too much fun. In my next reincarnation I summon the Great NOTHING to give me parents with great wealth and a willingness to share it with their only child, a son.

Never could get into car engines. Not for NOTHING.

The Thread About NOTHING
 
This was my first
project car, circa 1975.

Check out the Mercury Capri parked across the street. NOTHING was niftier than a Mercury Capri.

I sold this car when I bought my first house, family comes first ! Despite my warnings concerning it’s enormous power but lack of adequate brakes to the new owner, it was found 6 weeks later by my friend who ran a tow company. Apparently the new owner didn’t heed my warning. He smacked it into a concrete overpass doing an estimated
135 mph. He didn’t make it. His
girlfriend didn’t make it. I don’t think better brakes would have made a difference. The teenage mind is devoid of common sense. I’ll take a NOTHING VIOLATION, just thinking about those two kids tonight.

I’ve been smitten since 1965. NOTHING better than a 426 Hemi.

I did a lot of car models back in the day. None survived the various moves nor often the desire to stick a firecracker in a plastic model and see it explode. Almost NOTHING could survive when I got a batch of firecrackers.

Real metal would. But few model cars were all metal.

Then why are you working on a Corvette instead of a Charger? Either way it's NOTHING but blissful horsepower..

Every July 4th, or thereabouts, I would blow up the models I had built over the winter. I clearly remember the aircraft carrier. That sucker just wouldn’t blow up ! I wasn’t using ash cans or cherry bombs, just the little crackers. So, I took my dads 5 lb. lump hammer and smashed
the living crap out of it. NOTHING better than taking out childhood frustrations on the U.S.S. Enterprise.
