Time for a tuneup
About the only thing I've done to this poor old Lazy Daze tuneup wise is change the spark plugs years ago. Salvador is going to change the plugs, install new plug wires, distributer cap and rotor. And change the transmission fluid, also long overdue. Things are so hard to reach on this big V8 in a van chassis this is a two day job so I get the dubious distinction of sleeping here again with my head 10 feet from busy US 380.

Mix With the World
I am convinced our own happiness requires that we should continue to mix with the world, and to keep pace with it. . . . I can speak from experience on the subject. From 1793 to 1797, I remained closely at home, saw none but those who came there, and at length became very sensible of the ill effect it had upon my mind, and of its direct and irresistible tendency to render me unfit for society, and uneasy when necessarily engaged in it. I felt enough of the effect of withdrawing from the world then to see that it led to an anti-social and misanthropic state of mind, which severely punishes him who gives in to it; and it will be a lesson I never shall forget as to myself.
