An Open Letter to an anonymous Ford Motor Company engine designer:
I find it hard to believe that one of you sorry fuckers would design an engine with aluminum cylinder heads that is so pathetically designed that spark plugs can be blown completely out of the head. Yes, where there was once a double platinum tipped spark plug and a coil pack there's now a cleanly stripped hole without even a trace of threads. I never did find the spark plug but I did find a nice indentation on the underside of the hood where the fucker tried to take off like a rocket and the hood prevented it from reaching orbit.
I know for a fact and have dyno reports to back it up that it is possible to run 6 cylinder engines with aluminum heads that confidently handle approximately 183 HP per cylinder without fuss. When your piss poor Triton V-8 design can't even handle 40 HP per cylinder.....
I love Ford products, especially trucks but this particular Triton V-8 has a date with the scrappers where I will personally pull the handle and melt this fucking piece of shit into a pool of molten metal....and enjoy every fucking second of it. Built Ford Tough? Yeah, you better not have a Triton V-8 under the hood. And to every engineer that fucked the public with this shitty engine design? May you experience the joys of spark plugs launching out of your heads at 2 am in the middle of a blizzard leaving you stranded in the middle of BFE while your kids are asleep in the back seat.
And for the engineer that designed the Coil over Plug system? There's a special place in hell reserved just for you.
Sincerely:
A 7th generation Ford customer who will be parking a Toyota in the driveway in about 4 more weeks.
Fuck!

dick--state board of equalization. Or whatever you want to call it. At least get some back raise out of the guy... Or maybe the warehouse manager's shenanigins can show up on a fucking audit.

Thanks Fishy, I wish I could...I would get the backpays from previous similar fucking excuses,
but he has two people above him, we be corporate and they are in fucking Oregon with the HQ.
He made the call in front of me and supposedly left a message on the dudes machine that I am to get the raise, but I suspect he shined me and left a message on his home phone or something.
I informed him that I was gonna go talk to his superior monday when I was to be in Portland and that is when he lost it. fucking liar !!!!
The truth is something he has a hard time with, unless it comes from Rush Limbaugh.
Fuck him. I will miss his dog but that is about it.
In the end ...there is a huge weight off of my shoulders.
9+ months of unemployment will pay my bills in the long run
and actually make the move easier and definately give me more time to get ready for this years camping trip to the desert.
This also gives me a huge window to find a new place to work in Reno after moving.
I woke up this morning with a huge sense of piece of mind, and that was before it got smokey in the garage.
This is something I haven't really felt since I started feeling trapped in this job around 3 years ago.
Fuck him and his hairy back. He wears hawaiin shirts and the hair climbs up out the back of the collar so far it makes his balding head look like a pigs ass caugh in a huge Venus Flytrap.
He has a poster of chuck norris in his office too...what a fucking loser.
...........Fuck, I need a nap............

Put in for vacation time for BM in August & September (have two weeks/80 hours paid). Checked last night: it's all been approved/finalized! 
Those sorry corporate fuckers are going to pay me for a couple days to get ready, )'( a w e e k dissappearing )'(, and 5 days after to decom...
(CLARK dressed in a long tail tuxedo weaves the rythem stick, conducting the 60 piece Symphonic orchrestra and choir harmonics to the sweeping tune of:
' ' "OH Glory! Can I get a FUCK-yeah?
NO Worries to say FUCK the man!
The nameless suits FILLED with greed-
You can keep it cause' NOW I'm freed" ' '
(Repeat chorus x indefinitly until Monday, August 25th...)

)'( 2023 // 7:30 & "G" Plaza :.Fuch Yeah ! Love those post-yardsale Mondays. Scored a free 3-man raft with oars and footpump. Last month a sewing machine in cabinet. Craigslist got me 60 lbs of concrete mix, a nearnew futon-w-mattress I can use on Playa, another queen size 3 in. foam mattress with cover. I went to a Cinco Festival Sat. and won a case of bottled water. Stuff seems to be flying at me. At Goodwill I found a large two room tent for $15.00, a large tent with screen room for$10.00, a phoneograph for my 78's for $25.00. A local church gave me 3 sets of clothes (t-shirts, longsleave shirts, and jeans. At the Wally Store I got a 12x20 silver tarp and 16 in. spikes. I'm putting it out to the Universe for a vehicle with a trailer hitch. I found my stolen traiter behind a local store this Spring, the guy plead down with a D.A. deal but hey I got my trailer back. After 3 years I thought it was gone forever. It was well used to haul firewood, I quess his need was greater than mine.... really. My Mom gave me an old 1 KW genny that I got tuned up at an equipment rental shop. It gave the guys a kick to refit an old Montgomery Wards Antique instead of track vehicles. Now I need to build a 2 foot square sound box. I think I'll cook with 110 V portable appliances instead of battery toys. It won't hurt to have back up stuff like my solar oven and strike-a-light flint and steel. This will be my fifth year, is it common to get this much stuff and get this preoccupied ? Fuck, my enthusiasim is starting to worry me. Fuck.
