So is it considered vegetarian?
So if they could grow human meat would you try it?

Finally got serious about troubleshooting the ill-behaved fuel-pump relay on the e34.
Kind of an inside joke... it's "executive" because it's a 5-series, aka "executive car". So there's "executive shifting" (with your arm on the arm-rest), "executive lifter tick", and the...
The indicator light shows when the relay is getting a signal from the DME, and the switch allows me to bypass the relay, which is nice for when it's cold outside and I don't want to open the hood to shove a paper clip in the relay socket. The whole thing has a 7 foot cord and plugs into the relay socket. The cord runs out from under the hood, through the passenger door, and the panel resides next to the shifter.
Initial test results showed that the relay is not getting a consistent ground from the DME. After a week of driving using the bypass switch, the car has not thrown any tantrums, or shown any other signs of ill temperament. I've remembered to turn off the fuel pump when exiting the car nearly 85% of the time, so life is good.
Actually, that's not entirely true. I fixed the low-hanging cover under the dash which was dragging on my toe when I went to shift, and I did an oil change. When you fix something, something else has to break in order to keep an equilibrium, so the cable that actuates the drivers door latch release mechanism had to give way. For the past week I've been having to reach back and open the rear door so that I can reach behind the B-pillar to grab the outside door handle so that I can get out of the car. Removing the drivers-side door card now allows me to actuate the mechanism without rolling down the window or opening the rear door.
Such is the life...

Beautiful day today. I got up early and did bike stuff. My first time at Quarry Ridge. It's only about a 125 foot climb to the top, but I did it at least 10 time and my body loves me for it. I only stopped here to get my revenge on a small tree branch that bitch whipped me in the face the first time through.

It's a pretty small place, but they manage to pack a lot of trails into it and there's a great variety of different trail types. "Bottoms Up" was my favorite. Rough and rocky at the top, but fast and flowy the whole way. "Drop Zone" is pretty intense. They have a "skill filter" at the top where you have to drop off a 2-foot rock to get on the trail, which gives you a pretty good idea what you're in store for. There's a couple jump-lines which I was able to ride, but had no real desire to try and clear any of the jumps aside from a few table tops. There's also a nice cross-contry loop, and a sandy, rocky area in the middle where I wasn't really able to follow the trail. Considering it's only a 25-minute drive for me, it's a pretty nice place to bomb around and have some fun.
