    Covid has reared it's ugly head in the Whistler clan. Number one daughter, her daughter and step daughters and their daughters.
    Suspect Thanksgiving gatherings however to date no males are positive. The youngest are doing very well, wouldn't know except for the tests. The moms all seem to be manageable (if miserable ) at present.

    Fair question. Don't bother with the CDC. They don't know their @ss from a hole in their head.
    I'm pretty sure I know what the answer is since before 2019, covid and sometimes sars were often associated with the cold. Now we tend to think everything covid is associated with covid-19. Strange how language can be easily manipulated.

    Didn't they say that Drs. were having trouble telling the difference between the new variant of covid and a common cold? I saw that on the internet, so it has to be true...

    Well, no global conquest, no forging...and the damn oil change turned into an ordeal that ate the entire afternoon, left Pickles bleeding, and put me in pain from having to crawl under the car to try to force the stupid special oil filter tool Toyota requires to overcome the 10,000 foot pounds of torque the jackasses at Henderson Automotive in Seven Points, TX put on every damn moving part underneath the car last time I foolishly trusted them to change my oil.

    Quick lunch and a trip to O'Reilly for oil and a filter (and, as it turned out, a special tool required to do the freaky-ass and unnecessarily different oil filter change): 1-1/2 hours. It was a good lunch, and it's a bit of a drive.

    Jacking the car up and getting it on jack stands: 10 minutes.

    Pulling the oil pan drain bolt: 15 minutes, and our first sign of trouble as Pickles had a hell of a time budging it.

    Unscrewing the drain plug in the cap of the stupid oil filter compartment: 20 minutes of solid effort with a ratchet wrench.

    Using the special tool to unscrew the cap of the stupid oil filter compartment to access the squishy, oil-filled filter core that's the part you replace by using brute force from both Pickles and me (and let me tell you how fun it is getting down on the ground with my knees...) trying to use a rubber mallet on the ratchet to force it to unscrew, and then finally finding a long enough steel tube that would fit over the handle of a ratchet so enough leverage could be brought to bear to unscrew the damn thing: Well over 2 hours, possibly 3.

    Replacing the filter and the o-rings, screwing everything together, and filling the car with fresh oil: 15 minutes.

    But I did just make some tacos, and they were tasty.

    Make sure they watch out for follow-on pneumonia. When I had Covid last year, the covid itself wasn't so bad. I felt like shit for 3 days and then was ready to go on with my life...and then suddenly I was coughing, wheezing, exhausted, and feeling like death warmed over. Turns out I had viral pneumonia that took advantage of my slightly weakened state. I managed to stay out of the hospital, but damn it was rough for a couple of weeks. And it seems that most current "covid" deaths...are from the damn pneumonia that will sometimes follow it.

    And...on the next episode of COYOTE FALLS/FORGE!

    We will see a toYoTa vs ANVIL! :weights:

    You will love putting a heater core in a modern FOMOCO (or any other vehicle)....About 11hrs if.......you have done that model before...

    But look at all the money you saved and you didn't have to sit in a waiting room at the dealership.
