That would require putting some screws in the wall, which would require a request to have the university union carpenters come do that, which would require a work order request, which would require approval from my dean. If I request it today, it might be done before I die, but mostly likely it would be a posthumous installation.

Two days later, Amazon Prime shipping delivered a monster portable two-hose AC unit to my office, self-funded of course. I had to disassemble the window, and install a piece of custom-cut plywood into the frame in place of one of the glass panes as inlet/outlet vents for the two AC hoses that needed to go outside. A few months later, the head of facilities was in my office for a meeting, saw the whole thing, and didn't say a word! I don't know if it was because he felt guilty that they couldn't fix the central AC for years, or maybe he thought that his own workers did the job. Believe me, it looked much nicer than his workers could have ever done from the inside, and nobody could even see it from outside the building because I camouflaged it so well.....

While they were out at lunch, a co-worker and I took a loose scaffold bar they left on the floor and used it to remove all of the sheetrock all over the bare concrete floor. Then, we used the scaffold bar as a lever to pop all of the studs out and piled them on the floor. When they came back from lunch, they were peeved! It was like I slaughtered their sacred cow so they couldn't milk it for days! Their supervisor came in to check on their work a minute or so later, telling him that he was impressed with their work and gave the crew an hour to haul all of the debris to the dumpster and sweep up.....

The Countach is in the shop for some repairs.
The Diablo lost clutch yesterday so needs repairs. The Ferrari is in the shop getting serviced. The 83 Lotus is in pieces in the middle of a rebuild. The 79 Lotus is at my detailers getting detailed. I have nothing to drive but the M3 |

LOL, no doubt dinonz takes the cake.
I was simply going to say my first world problem is that I have to wait 10 days until I can get a tint for my new M340. |

I just found a source for the bumper shocks for the 77 Beetle. Currently, the ones on there are in varying degrees of compression, so the bumpers have never been even. Those of you with even mild OCD will understand how much of a joy this is.
Problem is, I don't recall if they are un/threaded holes onto the body, so can't order until I get home and check. |

I used to buy Vanity Fair pre-folded dinner napkins. I haven't been able to find them since last year. Now I've got to fold them myself. I hate folding napkins
