other dog

here's one you haven't seen. Taken when I met Rob in Illinois.

i think iv seen that pic

I think I have too- and didn't Mark say he drove that KW to Canada one time?..or is my clutch slipping a little?

just do like I do-

Something a little different came to mind.

I have a friend who's a mechanic at a shop in jersey,he HATES to see a waste management or BFI truck come in,he says its the leaking "gravy" that gets him everytime! gotta' love the garbage trucks!...................Mark

reminds me of working in a garage in the '70's. We had to service the Holly Farms equipment. BIG poultry outfit in the south, bought by Tyson Foods in 1989. They kept 2 busses in Cumberland, with seats in the front half, and ramps on the back to haul a forklift. The chicken catchers rode the busses to the chicken houses where they caught the chickens and put them in crates and they used the fork lifts to load the crates onto flatbed trailers. Rainy days were the worst...chicken poop, feathers, all sorts of chicken house filth dripping on you...

The truck is nice but I meant the gal in the blue jeans, wooohooo!!!!

I'm with you on that one!

...way better'n the woodpile...

I've been getting "Double Clutch" regularly, but I could ask the same question of "Shifting Gears" magazine. I subscribed to that a couple of years ago and only got a couple of magazines. That's the one the Bighorn Dodge was on the cover of.

Still get "Wheels of Time" and "Old Time Trucks", which is the best antique truck magazine. They will talk to you on the phone like regular folks. I've sent truck show pictures to the ATHS site and they put them online at their site but they don't give the sender any credit for the pictures. No big deal, I guess they're too big for that.

It consisted of farm animals of all varieties and humans, pretty nasty, and raunchy.

Rob

oh...must not be the 1917 movie then...but it could involve bluegrass music.

Sick, twisted, demented, and obscure bunch of individuals on this board. Guess that's why I fit in so well.

Think that's sick? Look up "Barnyard Frolics" on the internet. It was banned on the ship when I was in the Navy with an automatic "Captain's Mast" hearing if caught with it.

Rob

Just some 1917 movie about bluegrass music is all I saw

Yea I kinda caught that spelling also. He needs to use his spell chick or check. You be the first to try it and let us know how good it smells or tastes.

Hope ya come out smiling!

yeah, it'd be a good idea to give it the sniff test before you eat there i'd say.

Yep...used to be called "Jack's Place". Now it's called "Kuntry Kitchen". If I were trying to be cute and spell "country" with a "k" i'd probably have just left the "o" in there, but that's just me.

Paul is shunning us again.

I made the mistake of looking up '2 girls, one cup' when someone told me about it a couple years ago, don't get much better (or worse) than that...

Hmmmm...I must investigate all these things...

Mark, Which man are you talking about........Milk Man or Post man?

mike

hope it ain't the UPS man-

milk man jr.

I must be off now, so i'll leave you with this-

It would certainly seem so however the main for the main batteries to be large was further distance effectiveness. If I remember correctly the 18" guns of the "Yamato" class of Japanese battleships had an effective range of over 33,000 yards where the 15", and 16" guns of the British, and American battleships were 25,-27,000 yards.

Size really doesn't matter if you don't hit what you're aiming at.

Rob

that's what I like to think- size doesn't matter.

I have a 1999 CH with 470 Etec engine. I was on this site a little while ago and had some suggestions to help with my problem but no luck yet.The problem is every time I use the accelorator the fan engauges and when I take my foot off the accelorator most times the fan will disengauge.If I use the cruise control to increase revs the fan stays disengauged .This problem happens weather you are moving or stationary .The dealer has replaced the vechile ECU and all senders that supply ECU. There readouts give no listed faults and the copilot is not showing any faults.Every thing else works perfect. have had auto elecs look and they say every thing tests okay. Some times it will have a good day and the problem is not so bad.This happens weather the engine is hot or cold. thanks for any suggestions....

Mine got to where it would not disengage after it came on (C15 Cat). At first it would stop if you cut the engine off and restart it, then you had to cut it off and let it sit a few minutes, then finally it just ran constantly.

Not only noisy, but i've heard the fan running robs you of 50 horsepower! They replaced the switches but that didn't change anything, had to get a new fan hub-works fine now.

Also looks like you got your exhaust system back on the truck.

yeah, had a time finding 3 1/2" pipe and getting it bent, but got it all together. "Next" time, think i'll go with flex pipe!

I even found a recipe for you that you might want to try-

Oh great overlord of pancake syrup, oh master of masters, enlighten me of the differences of the sweet bourgelis syrups of the lourdes district of southern france to the bitter tartness of the pescalino syrups of western spain, master, i am but a lowly grasshopper and long for the great knowledge of the syrups,,,,randy

How did I stumble on this? Just happened to be brousing BMT an saw " Yellow R-Model" at the bottom of the page. Happens to be the very truck I drive. An '81, 300 and a 9sp.

Yep, looks like Long Island Lumber in your picture all right! I drive for F.L.M.

Anybody remember "King" syrup? Came in a red metal can with a picture of a lion on it and you had to pry the top off like a can of paint. It was really thick, and you had to dip it out with a spoon...and get yelled at for leaving a trail of it across the table. You never moved your pancakes close to the can, had to drip that trail...only kind of syrup I remember having when I was a youngster.

Thats what they told me as well,i'm in a trailer load of furniture just about everyday! doctor said the area where i was bitten may never heal completely,may even require a skin graft at some point! not much fun thats for sure!........Mark

That's very serious. You were fortunate that they diagnosed it quickly! I worked with a driver at H.H.Moore trucking who was bitten in the heel by one. He didn't go to the doctor right away,thinking it was no big deal. He didn't even know what it was. By the time he did go and they figured out what it was-because the bite just wouldn't heal and kept getting worse- it was too late. He actually had to have his leg taken off just below the knee. Absolutely true.

This is a good subject! i know there have been many advances in technology regarding cars and trucks over the last century,but i long for the days when people who worked on cars and trucks for a living were mechanics,not "technicians" and would actually try and diagnose a mechanical problem before starting to throw parts and money at it! my maternal grandfather was one of these guys,he could barely read or write,but could machine,repair,weld,build,re-build damn near ANYTHING that was put in front of him! if a job or part was not to his liking,he would re-build or re-do the part to his satisfaction,before making out his "bill" he repaired a cracked block on an old 8-N ford tractor we had on the farm 46 years ago,and i know for a fact its still running,and still used almost daily! just kinda' bothers me that no one seems to take this kind of pride in their work anymore,seems to be a "let somebody else worry about it now" not my job type world............Mark

One of the first things I learned was how to rebuild starters-pretty easy putting new bushings,brushes,and a bendix in.But nobody does it now-like honing and rebuilding a wheel cylinder,you just go buy a rebuilt unit and slap it on.

Except as written in Isaiah 45:23, Romans 14:11, and Philippians 2:10.
