Today I learned the daughter of another officer in my department will likely be hired. It's the same daughter the officer has been trying to hook me up with. I've already got a girlfriend though.

Today I learned that putting a $ before the row letter or column number in an excel formula makes it explicit.


Today I learned WSB doesn't use Excel much.

Today I learned I have to have an emission inspection done on my Chevy before renewing the registration.
Today you have learned the Chevy passed the inspection with flying colors.

Yes they did and on a dyno. They put the drive wheels on rollers, but the car in gear and ran the engine to 2,000 RPM to take the test. Too bad they can't give me horsepower numbers, not that I expect a whole lot.

That's right. Pin you back the seat torque which peaks at 4,800 RPM. Not at 7k plus. There's no replacement for displacement.
