      Laura and I were driving to work today and there was traffic. A cop car drove by and she said in the most monotone voice "There's been an incident". I couldn't stop laughing at how matter of fact she was about it. It's the little moments where I'm reminded of how great she really is.

        Gut the interior, install roll cage, race seats + 6.0L LS engine + manual transmission. Just the right amount of sheer stupidity, danger and fun I want.

        So you want to drop a GM drivetrain in it? Smart!

          Was kinda looking up Nolan Ryan and I saw something interesting:

          On May 11th, 1973 against the White Sox he got lit up. Gave up 5ER in 0.1 inning before getting pulled.
          Comes back THE NEXT DAY and gets a 2 inning save with 4Ks
          3 days later, throws a no-hitter with 12Ks.

          He was a bad ass!!

            The irony is that I could not actually install a motor in it with MORE displacement than it has now lol

            460ci / 7.54L is a freaking monstrous dinosaur and it only made I think ~300hp brand spanking new on leaded gasoline (super high octane)

                              🍿 -- Start talking.

                              Same vendor has called me 6 times in the past 3 days. Each time I ask questions as to who they are to which they reply:
                              Greeting: Hi i'm Hank from ______. We need to get in contact with your VoIP manager.
                              Me: Do we have a contract with you?
                              Vendor: No.
                              Me: We would like to be removed from your call list please.
                              Vendor: We don't have a call list.
                              Me: Where are you getting our phone number from?
                              Vendor: My computer.
                              Me: And where is your computer getting our information?
                              Vendor: Our Client.
                              Me: And who is your client?
                              Vendor: The telecommunications industry as a whole.
                              Me: I'm assuming there are multiple phone numbers for multiple companies in your computer?
                              Vendor: Yes
                              Me: That's a call list. I want to be removed from that list.
                              Vendor hangs up.

                              This has happened 5 other times this week where they just hang up. I keep blocking their number but they have called from a different number every time.

                                    This is why I don't answer phone calls unless I am expecting a call from the out side, or I know the person calling from the inside.

                                      Well, time to purchase a mannequin on ebay to dress up like your stereotypical vendor and then beat it with a large pipe to quell my rage

                                      🍿 -- Start talking.

                                      Same vendor has called me 6 times in the past 3 days. Each time I ask questions as to who they are to which they reply:
                                      Greeting: Hi i'm Hank from ______. We need to get in contact with your VoIP manager.
                                      Me: Do we have a contract with you?
                                      Vendor: No.
                                      Me: We would like to be removed from your call list please.
                                      Vendor: We don't have a call list.
                                      Me: Where are you getting our phone number from?
                                      Vendor: My computer.
                                      Me: And where is your computer getting our information?
                                      Vendor: Our Client.
                                      Me: And who is your client?
                                      Vendor: The telecommunications industry as a whole.
                                      Me: I'm assuming there are multiple phone numbers for multiple companies in your computer?
                                      Vendor: Yes
                                      Me: That's a call list. I want to be removed from that list.
                                      Vendor hangs up.

                                      This has happened 5 other times this week where they just hang up. I keep blocking their number but they have called from a different number every time.

                                      The same employee each time?

                                      No, different. The guys name wasn't hank but his identity is irrelevant. They all just hang up on me eventually.

                                      This is why I don't answer phone calls unless I am expecting a call from the out side, or I know the person calling from the inside.

                                      Problem is I get random numbers all the time that are legit. Sucks

                                        Only other thing I can think of is to call that company directly and keep moving it up the food chain until you get somebody to take care of it.
