one bad HD, one bad Carburetor and one bad eye

Did my usual Saturday routine... be woken up by someone at work then slowly drag my ass to the computer to see why I was yet again bothered on a weekend... and I noticed that the web server was totally fubar'd. Turning the monitor on I saw thousands of DMA errors. So I wasted almost all day trying to get the thing to function normally.

While that was happening, instead of surfing for pr0n like a good nerd should, I decided to get that damn snow mobile working. I spent ALL day getting the damn thing to start. Having to bypass the fuel filter and modifing the hoses to do whatever I could to get the air out of the fuel line.

IT FINALLY STARTED then stalled 10 seconds later and wouldn't start again no matter what I did. It has to be the carburetor because there are so few parts to this engine that it can't be anything but a 27 year non-serviced carb causing the problem.

Then (just prior to writing this blog) I perform some self diagnosis and conclude that I have a weak right eye. Even up close the right eye isn't as good as the left. I had been to the Dr. the other day and could read the 20/20 vision chart beyond 20ft, but only with the left eye. The right eye could only read about half of that.

Could that be the reason why my head goes all funky on me and I get these strange perception issues.... who knows?? Sounds quite likely since one eye is so much better than the other.

Optometrist, here I come!!
