Oh! You haven't been a member long enough to see the "Pentaxian Lounge". I apologize.

Here, I'll recreate it for you in this thread.

Monstro has been feeling a bit under the weather the past few days. I finally got him into the Truck Doctor, and they quickly found out why.

He had come down with a serious case of Black Lung.

It should look like this.

It lives here, along with the Pre Catalyst and SCR.

After about 4 hours in the DPF Sauna every thing was as "good as new" again, and my employer was $1,400 poorer. Of course it ate up most of a day, so I didn't get very far, but now Monstro is breathing freely once again.

But it was a pleasant spring day in Des Moines today!

How's that?

The funny thing is, the Pentaxian Lounge is supposed to be what this thread turned into.

In the US, as well.

Very saddened to learn about Bruce, though. A fine gentleman and friend to PentaxFolk everywhere.

Well, I am just hanging around until the OP comes back into this thread/lounge ... I want to buy him a drink!

Any suggestions or let him pick his poison?! J

Much better. Now next question: what is that? Doesn't look like any air cleaner I've seen. Monstro a Volvo? That's what my work uses for their fleet.

MD 20/20? Night Train? Maybe Colt 45?

I know... BOOOOOoooone's!

For you Frenchies, maybe some Ricard (shudder)?

Joel B · 04-20-2014, 01:15 PM

Hawkeye vodka? Comes from the same place that makes ethanol for cars!!

The secnd worst hangover I've ever had was precipitated by Boone's Farm apple. That was nearly 40 years ago, but it hasn't faded from my memory.

The OP is certainly welcome to join in the fun any time he wishes. He is somewhat of a celebrity, actually. How many people can say they started an 8,000+ reply thread?

He is scared... Most likely does not like Bacon, Cheese, Pickled Herring, Blood pancakes, Buttermilk, etc.

edit: and most likely is for the destruction of Tokyo

Hmpf. You probably call caviar "Russian stuff", too. And Champagne "sparkling wine". Again I say, "humpf".
