In his book "No More Mondays," author Dan Miller says something like 'when you love what you do, it isn't work'.

Congrats Jimmy on NOT finding 'work'.

Glad to see you doing well. One of the coolest things is to be able to get paid for doing something you already enjoy. Stay well!!

Congratz Jimmy!!! Just changed the oil in my C5Z and put in some RP. That's all I've ever used in any car I actually cared about lol! The job sounds very fun and exciting!

I recently got a pretty good job offer myself after battling a work injury so I halfway know how you feel! Granted my struggle wasn't as hard as yours, stay strong and keep fighting brother!!!! :rockon:

Thank you, it should be a fun and very interesting adventure.

Congrats Jimmy!

Thank you very much!

Thanks! No problem on the friction modifier, it won't hurt anything, you just doubled up on the dose, and spent more money than you needed to, and probably noticed the SMELL! HA HA!

The Max Gear already has the correct dose of F/M in it. :beer:

Thanks! It was scariest for my wife, it was "lights out" for me while I was being kept alive on all the machines.:sleeping: I remember stuff before and after that but not during that period.

I can't imagine how scary for the wife for sure.,. Glad she didn't flip the switch to the off position :eek: cause then you would have been Jimmysixfeetunderr :(

Congrats on the new job, and more importantly, welcome to bonus time. I've been on the bonus time for almost a year now myself (heart attack last May 21). I'll keep you in my prayers.

Congrats on the recovery.

Confucius say "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."

Good luck and I hope things continue to go your way.

I am very happy to announce that the fit came in the form of "Jr. Technical Support Engineer". I hope the engineer thing doesn't get too many of our real engineers(I know there are a lot of you) here pissed off since I'm not actually degreed, but it appears that lots of corporations tag many of their positions with the engineer tag if the job is fairly technical in nature.

I'm a degreed engineer and I'm PISSED. :fm:


Congrats! :beer:

So when do I get free Royal Purple stuff? :beer:

BTW, Congrats again. :thumbsup:

Way to go, Jimmy! Good things do happen to good people.

Jim Snover

Jimmy, you have been through a couple of lifetimes of suck. Now it's time to enjoy life. Nothing better than getting paid for doing for something you like.

And none of us really expect tons of free Royal Purple.

Just a discount;-)

Do i smell a new sponsor in the mix here at SVTP?
I'll have to ask Jared and see if that fits into his plans.

I can't imagine how scary for the wife for sure.,. Glad she didn't flip the switch to the off position :eek: cause then you would have been Jimmysixfeetunderr :(

:beer:
HA HA! From what she has told me, there were so many machines it would have taken her an hour just trying to turn them all off, even if she had wanted to. LOL!

Thats awesome man, good luck with everything!! Always like reading Cobra stuff your informing some of us about when we ask!!
Thank you very much! It's fun for me.:beer:

Thank you very much! I like that, "Bonus Time", it pretty much sums it up. Thank you for the prayers also, there is no doubt in my mind, that many prayers assisted the multiple death dodges that took place prior to the transplant. I have not gone into the specifics very much but the survival rate for What Are Bleeding Varices? is not very good, and I survived three of them.

Congrats on the recovery.

Thank you! I like that, HOW TRUE!!:rockon:

HA HA!! Thanks! It's a lot of work getting there, I have a lot of respect for you guys!

Thanks Drew! Monday can't come soon enough!
We should get together and actually patent a Ford specific oil pump/piston oiler/ retrofit kit for Ford Modular engines! Slightly wider billet oil pump gears & housing and a jetted tube system package that could fit all models would be marketable, effective and prolong modular engine viability from that time period in endurance racing apps for a good while.:rockon::beer:

I'd buy several.
