Sup Denver Jeepers...

Anyone's company out there looking to hire? I'm wanting to make a move to Denver but need a job first. I have a bachelors in Economics, so if anyone knows of anything PM me and I can forward a resume. I'm tired of having to travel from Kansas City to go skiing every winter, I'd rather just be there haha.

Yeah i don't think you wanna move to Denver. Aurora maybe, I'd get even further from Denver than that though. I see a few houses for sale in my Neighbourhood lol.

Prices. And Traffic.

I definitely want to live there. I know it's pricier but employers also pay more in markets like that. Traffic I can deal with. I love it out there... been coming out there since I was a kid. Our family has a place in Breck and Steamboat, so I'm pretty familiar with the area. I just need to live there, my lifestyle depends on it, haha.

My ****ing drive shaft just fell off.

Was backing outta the driveway and CLUNK. Bolts on the diff end were loose apparently, managed to find them all. I think someone loosened them but there weren't any tool marks.... Skinned my arm getting it back on.

Anyone got any tips on getting the t-case fluid off the driveway?

Hmm, i got neither. Time to go shopping! Gotta get more fluid anyways....

Anyways,one of the clamps was bent, so i suspect the bolts wiggled themselves loose and got twisted off. Or my original theory of the local jack*** kids ****ing with local cars again. I'll keep an eye on the other cars and make sure they don't get towed off soon. And check my Ranger for damage.

Cops caught em, some 15 YO punks were going around putting sugar in tanks, slashing tires, all kinda of ****. I think I only got the shaft dropped because I have a locking gas cap, and they only slashed cars with low profile tires. Put it did let me look at the forward U-joint i think I found the squeaking! Grease zork broke off so it hasn’t been getting grease. So it's probably worn out.

Lol. Need to talk to Dustin and see his chop/cage after talking to Seth today. I think want to seal it up with the rear door so will have heat in winter.
