I tried to find Harold’s deli today but couldn’t find it. We drove by a massive Amazon Warehouse and it was close but My gps never told me to turn when I should have and then I hit a massive intersection and it got too complicated to turn around. It seemed to be like hidden in some shopping center or something. Oh well, at least getting back on to the Parkway was easy. I love NJ highway systems. They all have some wierd memory attached to them for me. The cemetery’s are soooo creepy as well , Nj is great for spooky Halloween shit and the Metal station out of Seton Hall University still kicks ass. I haven’t listen to so much death metal in a while. Very nice.Last time I was down there was February 2020 so a visit is due. I just pm'd you

Yeah, lots of old cemetery’s. I found some in the woods growing up.....lots of headstones in the 1800's nothing newer. And a local name......but this was deep in the woods. Check out that weird new jersey link I sent you. Lots of fun things to do
It's a shame so much has been lost to development. Not really bad but I miss it.

I saved a nice old lady that my lady works with over $1000. The power steering on her car was having issues. She took it into a shop and they gave her an insane estimate to fix. Over $1000. They wanted to replace the power steering pump and some other parts in the steering assembly. Told her it needed to be done ASAP. She declined and since she knew I work on cars she asked my lady if I could take a look at it.
It took me a couple seconds to figure out what was wrong. The damn belt to the power steering pump was so loose that I could spin it over the pulleys so it wasn't turning the power steering pump and if it was it was just barely doing it. I was surprised it hadn't flown off.
Went down to Autozone and grabbed a $12 belt. Took 30 minutes to put on. I had to loosen the alternator so I could remove that belt which was in the way but it was an easy job except for the tight quarters getting tools in to loosen the bolts that I needed to.
Anyway, the power steering works fine. I examined the rest of the steering and it was all good. Just goes to show how so many auto repair shops are in the business of ripping people off. Makes me want to go down there with the estimate and ask them how they came up with it. I'm not going to bother though. They know what they're doing and they're complete jerks for doing it.
The offending $12 belt that fixed the problem.

Speaking of people ripping people off.. I'm watching my neighbor ladies yard be mown in a pouring rain, the yard hasn't grown at all for the last few months yet every Monday like clockwork this guy comes and mows it anyways. So freaking dishonest!

3.5 hours logged talking to Verizon, Spectrum and Optimum. Returned Spectrum equipment and set up new service with Optimum. My new apartment building doesn’t have Spectrum services so had to drop them. Its so exciting to be using Optimum for the first time. The have super fast internet and no binding contracts like Verizon!

made a pair of handles .
My wife had rotator cuff surgery 8 weeks ago and is in the middle of therapy now. So she needs a rope pulley do hickey, I went to a couple of sports stores but they didn’t have anything I could use. Two scrap pieces of wood and a razor knife, bam , instant handles…… ok not actually instant but I’m on the clock so it’s all good.
Went to LA today. It drizzled down here so everyone lost their minds, brutal drive.
That's so sweet. I hope she's feeling better soon.
