Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris destroyed the periodic table, because the only element he knows is the element of surprise.

Oil Change

I changed my oil a week ago.  It would have cost me 60 bucks to have it done at a shop.  I think I ended up spending $50 (torque wrench) + $4 (20mm socket) + $12 (4 quarts of oil) + $15 (oil filter) = $81 to do it on my own, + 1 hour of my time.  Next time it should only cost be $27 bucks for the oil and oil filter.

Mechanical

I was bored today.  So bored in fact, that I decided to clean & lubricate my motorcycle chain and re-adjust the drive shaft.  The thing about a motorcycle is that after riding it for awhile, the chain gets stretched out, so it'll hang loose.  You have to move the back wheel further from the engine in order to get rid of the extra slack in the chain.  This is the first time I tried this.  There was actually not much to it, but the test ride afterward was a little scary because I was afraid I might have done something wrong and the wheel would fall off while I was riding.  It didn't fall off.

I think I'll try changing my oil tomorrow.
