Snow Summit say Chair 7 and Log Chute are open, which makes a return visit worthwhile. Tomorrow???!!! Bear Mountain is working on Chair 4's slopes, which would make a visit worthwhile when open. Mammoth hasn't opened anything since I was up there two weeks ago. Not here, Heavenly, [realistically,] has two lifts, three runs, Dipper, Orion, Comet, and 4th, if you count the California Trail, and 5th, if you like the long traverse/glide, Crossover, and with Ante-up terrain park open, it'd be hand-full for you flatlanders already. What we really need is "snow!" I do my part of snow dancing, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dutAMWNG3GE IS |

Today Chair 9 (who cares?) and some new trails are listed as open. Gotta go tomorrow. *My son says he want to go Friday. *We can do both. Now if Bear Mountain could just catch up. Damn truck wouldn't start -click- *-click- At least it happened in my driveway. Auto Club towed it to the dealer and it started first try. Good news - Bear Mountain opened Chair 4 today - so now it's worth going there. |

Dealer couldn't diagnose, but I eventually figured it out with the help of others with the same problem (had to meet them individually broken down along the road - no intratubes yet) Idiot Nissan engineers used a mechanical fuel pump mounted next to the exhaust manifold and the pump would vapor lock just like those wonderful old cars we all imagine we'd like back. Added a wrecking yard electric pump in lead position tandem with the existing pump and no more problems. I can't to this day believe any automotive engineer would do such a thing. I still won't look at Nissans when I shop for cars - given the Japanese corporate group-loyalty crap, the guy probably runs their quality control now. Idiot. |

The dealer found that oil is leaking slowly from the valve cover gaskets and dripping onto the starter motor. Starter motor is crap now. New starter = $100. New gaskets = $20. Installing new gaskets = $1200. |

That's how I now feel about Gubmint Motor Corp. I'm in the market for a 3/4 ton diesel pu. And would love to get the GMC. But as long as they are obama motors I will buy something else. |

I don't know how much GM stock Obama owns, but the federal government is down to about 33% ownership and may yet break even on the bailout with GM. |

As long as you're reading your buddy Baghdad Bob, any comment on his comparing me to Saddam Hussein? Saying I should be tried and hanged for the crime against rsa humanity of exposing both of you as pathologically lying cowards? Happy to discuss this with SPD. Contact info? Maybe that cop has a GMC pickup, you never know. |
