not me, i made the cover of Mack monthly magazine sometime in 85 or 86. i was in a two month old red DM 800 playing in the mud, and they picked the shot where you could clearly see me looking out the window down towards the ground. that picture may very still be hanging on the owners office wall. the whole family was very proud of it..

actually we do still have dirt roads here in New Jersey, but no where near as many as 50-60 years ago. these days they are out in areas where few people travel. i remember dirt main roads. now i would have to travel at least 60 miles to find one other than two in town through the woods on a farm.

you are not the only one my friend!!!! all any of us can do is hope the crazy people get removed from office and replaced with sane people. but i think we would have a better chance of finding unicorn teets.

same here in the states Paul. the big difference here is the farms are all being replaced with housing or warehouses, so there is little open ground for it to be a problem. i remember a few times back on the farm when i was very young where workers would get very sick after direct contact with soil removed from the fields for use in the hot beds before we switched to the large greenhouses. at the hospital, they would determine anthrax exposure.

same here Bob. 56 years driving trucks (and cars) and never had a chargeable accident. i have been hit many many times, but was never at fault.

had a dipstick do close to the same thing today. except i was in the kenworth, and dipstick was in a mercedes. made a left turn from right lane, about 150 foot from the left turn. dipsticks excuse was "but i had my blinker on" i showed the police the video. no blinker, in my blind spot, just turned the wheel........rite into the passenger side front tire. then put the blinker on once pulled over in front of my. i know she got an improper lane change, failure to use blinker, and filing a false police report tickets. not sure if any more were issued, the cop was still deciding if he was going to write more or just tow the car away when he cut me loose. took out driver fender and door.

yea bob, but i was 335 18 months ago . 69 now, and 6 foot tall

since i do not eat much any more, i had a BLT and a bottle of water around 2pm. and that will be it until tomorrow morning. by the way, i weighed 213.7 this am.

Mr Sikorski offered my father a job for life and starting salary of 10 times he was making as a pilot in the navy after a bearing failure almost killed him. he also offered and gave the co pilots wife life benefits and salary after he was killed in the crash. back in 1952, they were the first pilots killed/almost killed in one of his birds crashing. he also paid for dads hospital stay and all reconstructive surgeries. when dad finally was released from the hospital 2 years later, he declined the offer telling Mr Sikorski he could not be held responsible for an accident that was caused by a bearing failure. they remained friends for 20 years until Mr Sikorsky passed away.

i had a guy tailgating me for close to 2 miles yesterday. like less than 5 foot away tailgating and flashing his light at me. i had the cruise control set at 35 mph, the posted speed limit. there ws finally a break in oncoming traffic, and he whipped left while standing on the gas in his durnago. by the time he passed the stealth ford explorer in front of me he had to be doing at least 60. needless to say, the cop was not happy with him.

i just hope i dont live long enough to see the United States turn into a form of USSR.

whenever my daughter starts complaining about her kids, i remind her: "kids are gods way of paying you back for all the crap you did to YOUR parents" which shuts her rite up.

about $900 each for a road tire Bob

mine was the same way Dave!!!!!

Paul, here in the USA most states and insurance companies require at least one plug in powered smoke detector interconnected with battery powered units. plus a CO2 detector. at least one on each floor, plus either in bedrooms, or outside the bedroom door. also, in most states if you do an addition of more than 10% on a old building you must update to current smoke detector laws.
