  1. Hello Sir. I am looking at a B 53 over here in S.W. and noticed you had one. By chance was this one of the trucks that came out of the large Roanoke, Va fleet sold off about 20 years ago? Wherever yours came from, it is great to see it has survived with its original equipment. My prospect became a spreader truck many years ago.

      yes, probably. It came from a company called "Concrete Ready Mix" and they had a bunch of B models. They sold out to another company and the new owners got rid of them, thinking they couldn't get anybody to drive equipment that old, and they were probably right.

      I sold it several years ago- too cheap- to a man in Kentucky, and the first thing he did was take the mixer off. People had told me that's what I should do, and I always said "then it would just be another B model, everybody has one of them- but nobody has a B model mixer".

      Merry Christmas to you and yours! I've been wanting a beer for over a week now, they call out to me every time I open the refrigerator.  But when I went to the Dr's. office for that gout over a week ago the first thing the nurse said was " you know, red meat, seafood-especially shellfish- and beer are the worst things for gout". I thought "great, 3 of my favorite things ".

  3. OD,GPS can be misleading! I followed a set of directions to a customer once,Got 300yds from his facility, and it's on the other side of a railroad  track without a crossing!! The roadbeds 3 foot high! Had to drive miles  to get to the place!

      Yeah, I heard that- I don't even use GPS, just a Rand McNally and a phone. The phone is the thing now, I used to carry a brief case full of city maps! I think I still have most of them.

  6. More damn snow here today! Oh Boy! i'm so damn sick and tired of snow it ain;t funny!

  7. This sucks, to the highest level of sucktivity. The road over here was so slick when I got home yesterday that I almost slid into the mailbox trying to turn into the driveway. Solid hard-packed snow. This morning it snowed more, making it that much slicker, then it started sleeting, making it that much more slickerer. And nary a salt truck, sand truck, or state truck of any kind has been seen...none. I pay my taxes just like everybody else!

  8. Picked up a six pack of new-to-me beer at the store a while ago- Waterfront Blonde Ale. It was on sale and it had a pretty picture of a boat on it- nice, eh? No, it also has a horrible bitter aftertaste- kinda reminds me of a soy sauce, bleach, diesel fuel, and green persimmon mixture. I'm sticking with Anheuser-Busch from now on.

      Beats me, I have no idea what it means either. I copied and pasted it on my facebook page because it seemed like the thing to do.I think if somebody becomes a gazillionaire because of any of my pictures posted I can get a cut.

  11. "where's it at?"..."is it for sale?"..."somebody save it!"..."that's sad"..."the owner's probably an asshole!"

    Makes you not want to post pictures of anything you've seen. I don't know if it's for sale, who cares where it's at-you're not going to go there anyway-you can't "save" everything, it's not sad,and the owner is not an asshole.He's nice enough to let people look and take pictures, the owner is the owner and he could have scrapped everything or cut it up with a torch and left it laying...

      I put that on facebook, not referring to anyone on BMT. One guy even asked me if I could get him the bumper off an Emeryville...I guess he wanted me to sneak in there and steal it for him.
