I ran another parkrun back home today. then kayaked down some small rapids, up some more and then back again. i think my body is going on strike tomorrow.

Here I am standing next to the biggest piston I've ever met.

**Posted by griff** 7/03/2022 11:55 am

That's a serious piston! What's it out of?

**Posted by BigV** 7/03/2022 12:24 pm

out of.. place?
I'm not sure. It's been in front of this building in Ballard as long as I've known. Ballard being the sleepy fishing community it used to be, has a major maritime presence and tradition. My guess it is out of a monster marine diesel of some gargantuan variety.

RF a couple hours ago, Benny leading the "new" tractor back to the barn after brush hogging.

I made it swim a mile. I rock. My shoulders called me bad names.

I want a Kubota So. Hard.

Griff, the tractor is running 2500 RPM and the PTO says 500. Is that 5:1 a set ratio or variable?

RF-a couple of weeks ago. Outdoor festival, I was really laying into those cymbals.. check out the cave-man grip on my right hand, must have been squeezing out the last bit of grip strength here. The stage manager said the whole drum riser was wobbling to the point of maybe collapsing. I don't get to play with full force very often, but this was a big sound system with loud stage monitors, so I went for it.

Cool! Is this a regular band you play with these days, or was it a piecemeal gig?

**Posted by griff** 10/01/2022 7:16 am

Awesome man!

**Posted by xoxoxoBruce** 10/01/2022 9:12 am

Looks like Chained Melody.

**Posted by TheNeverWas** 10/01/2022 3:36 pm

Reminds me...

Unrelated random fact:

Unchained Melody was written for a prison movie.

Kinda changes the feel of that one, don't it?

**Posted by Limey** 10/02/2022 3:25 pm

That looks awesome, Flint!

**Posted by fargon** 10/02/2022 5:55 pm

I wanna know, though, were you scamplt or sopt at the time?

**Posted by monster** 10/03/2022 5:07 pm

scompt, I'd say

**Posted by Flint** 10/03/2022 6:16 pm

Thanks, everybody.

Clod, it's a cool local band that I've been doing gigs with for a few years and the only band I've really kept up with, because we connect so well musically and personality-wise.

For the record, I was fully sopt, and-- I'm not a giant. That's a tiny drum kit that was set up and mic'd so each act wouldn't have to load in drums.

Scamplt? Sopt?
