Looks like I won't get much done this week. Parents-in-law dropped off their completely untrained and brainless springer spaniel to watch for a week. This obsessive-compulsive water drinking maniac has a bladder the size of a walnut and is a real pest. My blinds are destroyed, 3 power cords chewwed up, carpet has lost a year of its life, have to get abusive just to get a bite to eat, house stinks of dog crap and I am now looking up dog-cooking recipies on the net. That was day one. Have 3 more days and a blizzard to go.

I hope I can get my test bench set up soon, because this is irksome. My salvation depends upon it.

Holy crap. Who hones without a torque plate?!?!? Time to fire a machine shop, jeez.
