cylinder index

In the Twin Cities we have a radio talk show that the host has a running count of how many motorized toys his callers have. This includes cars, trucks, chain saws; you get the picture? They count the cylinders and mention to him when they call in. I will start by saying my cylinder index is 25.

Lol. At first this looked like blatant consumerism or I've got more than you. Then I began to count what I have been given to do my work. Surely NOT bragging, all are used for work or needs. Lol Well most, not the Merck SLK or the bike.

Vehicles=30

Machines=10

Equipment=3

Total=43

Looks like HE really does bless me.......43
 
36...

Of course, 16 of 'em are in RC model airplane/helicopter engines from the days my son and I built and flew them. Still have 'em all even though we've not flown in some years.

Vehicles: 12
Lawn & Farm care equip: 9

Net fun index = (car + MC) cylinders - (truck + Lawn/farm care) cylinders = 8 - 13 = -5

Game over, I lose...............

I like this formula except the car belongs on the other side of the equation.
Fun stuff (MC + ATV's) - (cages + tools + work) =?
In my case I'm at 0
MC=12-Cage=12 =0

I never thought about vehicles that are driven for work should not count and become a negative to the number of pleasure cylinders
 
Current household count is 39 that are used for internal combustion of which all but three are for driving pleasure (with three turbos thrown in to help boost the fun factor), plus 7 more that make pressurized air for a total of 46.
 
I sense a dieselyoda moment is about to occur.......

Beer? Now that is the most awesome pleasure cylinder I can think of that I can share here without getting banned. I will share my other thoughts with one of the porn sites I frequent.
