Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

We warned you - the Gearhead Consultancy is all about paying attention (because geek!), and this uberule applies to home, self, car, property and Sanctum Garagium. If you don't want your goods to get grabbed, watch your back when you park the Aston (or whatever you roll) in the car hole, because with all the crime exploding across America, someone might be watching you. The market is there for thieves - don't be their meat.

There's more: lost D-rings, lost hitches and lost F-35s, hacked ships and hacked warplanes (yikes?), pawn shops and battery slop, Teslas running over junk and unions running over members, JF Summit, illegal Canadia, the thumb on the scale, plus Fu Manchu, High on Fire, Sleep, Matt Pike and Dragonaut, Herbalizer, Alice in Chains and Die Krupps.

Holy carp - too much to do (and apologies for the tardy transmission). The Gearhead Consultantcy is always on the job, we're just busy. Hostus Maximus Justin Fort and the Walkin' Dude got back together out in BFE (Black Forest Excellence) for some trail tales - Red Cone, Imogene, Webster Pass, Mt. Herman, Gold Camp, Mt. Baldy - and thoughts on truck bags (gear for a day), mine access, universal keys, lost D-rings, and not 'froading alone.

As always, there's a lot more: bags on roofs and tents on trucks, too much pressure washing and oil consumption, not enough Eddyline and Coors Banquest, Fred and Rudy (dogs), Cujo (dog name), Capt. Surly and Dani (people), and The Toadies and Presidents of the United States of America (bands).

Drive over the lawn, bust down the fence, toss the barricade in the ditch, 'froad the road less travelled, or just go the "wrong" way - it's not the climate that's going to ruin your day, it's the fire started by bad behavior (intentional or incompetent) storming around the corner of your neighbor's bungalow that you need to flee. Lots of bad stuff happened in the Maui firestorm, but good lessons are never too early to be learned, and the Gearhead Consultancy is here to help - turns out your natural distrust of government, bureaucrats, elected libtards and watermelon environmentalists is well placed.

Yes, you're correct - it's a little soon for this chat - but it's never too soon to be prepared for the next one, and not knowing when that is, let's take this opportunity to toughen up and avoid a repeat. Because, in the end, your survival is your business.

...Got a lot of respect for Darwin's capability to wipe out bad batches of genes from the people stew that is humanity, but let's stop making kids in hot cars take the brunt of it. Meanwhile, back at the garage, how about some gearhead civil disobedience? You're no pepperoni-armed hipster antifa weenie, so keep it non-destrictive like MLK Jr. said we should. Plate cams, robot cars and bad bureaucracy are a great place to start: unplug something; cover something; aim something at a wall; drop a traffic cone in front of something - show how bad or stupid or insidious something is without destroying it.

More goodness: Funyons versus coffee, Hillary's SoCal fail (less rain than January), IRS agents with guns, new homes on old mines (wicked ultra KAPOW, folks), Bud versus Busch, Maui's firebug problem, electric busses go bankrupt because they only do politics, and another electric F-150 function flop.

Join the Garage Hour goons and say "Hail No!" to your cars and trucks looking like you left them parked at the receiving end of a driving range. Jus because it's summer and you live in a town that's prone to the big icy agony-inducing airborne projectiles known as HAIL doesn't mean you have to live with dents and dings and the sneering sideways glances from your dentless neighbors. We've got ideas and solutions: homemade, inexpensive, effective, available, inflatable, hand-me-down and hard to assemble. Also, this episode's got OE recalls (F-150 e-brakes engaging when they feel like it), Porsche insulting Christianity but pretending days of editing was an "error", the E.P.A. approving additives for gas that cause cancer in EVERYTHING (government isn't on your side), and why Ohio and Indiana letting HAL 9000 drive their semis.

...And sorry about the delayed upload - too much to-doing in Earning a Livingland.

More: Rev. Heat versus Liberace, barn haters, baloney sandwiches, and gambling with music (like Horton Heat, A.F.I., Ministry, Wellwater Conspiracy, Metallica, Sugar Ray, Living Colour, Luscious Jackson and 16-Volt).
