Well, if you want, I have a colleague who is a Ph.D. Tribologist and expert in such matters that I can introduce you to.

I often try to imagine things on a molecular level.
I think of hot water when I am washing dishes and i imagine all the oxygen atoms having covalent bonds and quickly separating and establishing multiple other covalent bonds per second and going faster as the temperature rises.
Then I think of the water droplets broken down by soap and entering the pores of the dish and then rushing back out with foreign particles being pushed off.
It's fun to have an imagination during chores

My daughter and a couple of her friends went to the High School Christmas Dance together tonight and landed back here for Pizza, conversation and laughs.
Oh, to be 15 again...
Oh, to be 15 again...
Wow, that sounds like something D Daddy would say. LOL

I used to have thoughts like those but they usually involved the consumption of a controlled substance . A job with mandatory drug tests after an accident or injury brought those musings to a quick end

Tell me I am not the only one who thinks about internal engine parts moving, while you're driving.
I drive and imagine the oil slinging on the moving parts and the fuel igniting and going through the intake and the whole way through

I wouldn't want to be 15 again, when I was 15, I wasnt into cars yet.
I was just an average kid with no direction and had no idea what I was going to do.
Life seemed scary and overwhelming, and scary
It wasn't till I started my love affair with cars that I started living. Cars can teach science, life lessons, physics, and are a credit to great human thinking.
Cars are the best creation by man kind and a credit to opposable thumbs.

You would enjoy getting a full understanding of Chemistry and learning that detergency and surface chemistry is all about non-covalent bonds driven instead by hydrogen bonding. Interfacial tension modification, hydrogen bonding and film formation are all principles of it that may astound you.

Your 15 years of age memories and mine are quite different...as are the ones my daughter is creating. My point being that it is a time of awakening, and the genesis of creation of self that will influence a lifetime of being.
Still snowing. neighbour across road is pushing snow in ditch next to my driveway,grader goes by and blocks my driveway. So now i push it across road and it in turn grader deposits it back onto his driveway. Fun fun fun.
i hope to catch it right after grader passes my place,just so it works out that i can leave enough to block him and his neighbours.

Sounds like snow berm wars!
Did exactly as I would.
Its not any different than someone going up on a porch here or around back of the house 'just looking' for trash. Sorry pal. When its out on the sidewalk with a 'free' sign on it, its all yours. When someone is looking around the property, they are acting like a potential thief. The last thing they ought to be doing is opening doors or the hood. Knock on the door is OK, but he shouldn't be surprised by your response. He would have done a lot better if he showed some interest in the situation rather than that his main interest was taking it. Some people think everything and everyone can be bought.
Uh, actually, only when I suspect something is wrong. But that's cool. its good to have a vivid imagination. Just keep yours eyes on the road, your hands on the wheel...

Yep and Yep. LOL
Come knock on the door and not act like an ahole...I will be out to talk and show you every inch of the Duster. Open a door without checking in at the office and we won't have much to talk about other than how fast you were leaving.
Can you drill the hole for the dipstick larger diameter for the replacement ones to fit????
Drill baby, drill....

He should have knocked on the door and asked you before opening the hood...
Taking it upon himself to open it without asking is very rude, especially on an old car...
Only when you are in a junk yard/pick-and-pull is it ok for you to open hoods to see what's under there without asking....
No apology needed, he shouldn't have opened the hood without asking...
If the did that on an original Hemi car, he might meet the business end of a shot gun....
How about how fast the pistons are moving up and down and how fast the rocker arms are opening the valves????
For as fast as it all works, it's really a miracle that it can operate like that so reliably and for years.How about how fast the pistons are moving up and down and how fast the rocker arms are opening the valves????
