  1. Yep, what they said, and good luck to you.
  2. I have a tool for that-
  3. .
  4. I ran across these on Facebook a while ago, I think they're from Columbia, but anyway some super sharp looking older trucks, and still working- Check out the bulldogs on this International-
  5. I bought a 2002 Ranger in '05 or '06, 4 cyl, 5spd, had 40-some thousand miles on it then, has a hundred thousand more on it now and it's been one of the best vehicles i've ever had.
  6. .
  7. Or, you could get your aunt to start a compost pile for you and put the potato peelings, coffee grounds, etc. in it- it's good for your garden. I don't even peel my potatoes most of the time, I just scrub then good with a vegetable brush under running water, and cut out any bad places I see. And I don't chew my fingernails.
  8. The infield- l. to r.- 3rd. basewimman, shortstop, 2nd.basewimman, 1st. basewimman.
  9. heavy duty industrial grade pencil sharpener.
  10. Neat stuff there, I liked this comment too- "Only an American could have an arse this big."
  11. He said he made the run across there all the time and he had stopped in that same spot many times because of slick roads. He was a local driver, in a daycab with super singles so he might have had ditch experience before, those super singles suck on a slick road. After I was spinning coming up that hill I didn't want to go down the big one before you get to 219. It's not marked what per-cent the grade is, but that sucker is steep!
  12. Wow nice cars! I'd miss the Monte Carlo the most too, that's one fine looking ride!
  13. It was actually super-clean, you can sort of tell in the mirror picture. My windshield was dirty and the sun was shining in in the second picture. My appointment was for 2pm, so it was about that time.
  14. Stopped in Winfall on the way home to congratulate the Winfall Wimmens softball team. They went 0-19 this season but they looked good doing it. l. to r. - left fielder, center fielder,right fielder.
  15. A little closer look. This was parked a long ways away from me so I couldn't get a better picture.
  16. Holt hamburgers! Where is this at? I hit snow on the way in from Sharon,Pa. Thursday night. I went across 422 to 22 to 99 and 422 was shut down for a while between Belsano and Ebensburg until they could get a salt truck out there. I spun all the way up the hill from Belsano with 2 23,000+lb. coils on and when I saw a Smith truck pulled over in front of an old business in a good size lot I pulled in beside him. I hadn't had any trouble until I got to there, but there was one more hill that is really steep before you get to 219. I walked out onto the road while I was there and it was too slick to go for it. Then the state police and local firemen showed up and stopped everything until the salt truck got there, about 2 hours later.
  17. I'm gonna liquify some hot peppers and bottle it.
  18. I went to Chester, Va. to unload a load of steel Monday morning. Saw these two big rigs heading west on 460 in Appomattox. I was wandering around while I was waiting to get unloaded and spotted this GMC and a couple of Dodge pickups across the fence. I saw something green in an old shed back there too and I first thought it was a stationary GMC engine, but it was too far away to tell for sure. I zoomed the camera in to the max, and now on the big screen I can tell that it's a machine of some sort, but not a Detroit Diesel engine. Then I went to the steel mill in Petersburg to load for Savannah, Ga. I was waiting to get on the scales when I saw Green Dash in the mirror. He bypassed the scales and went straight in to get his load of beams. He's always there for you. Wait to get in...wait to get out. I was wandering around while they were unloading one beam at a time in Savannah and saw this around behind a stack of beams- two stationary Detroit Diesels! I must have conjured them up in Chester. It was hot sitting there too, but everybody was dressed like this- Meanwhile, I was sweating in a T shirt. Then I went to Allendale S.C. and picked up this tremendous load of boards. Saw this big Mack truck at the lumber getting place. Later, that same day, I saw a cotton field. Looking north on rt. 321, that's Columbia,S.C. ahead. When I got home I found I'd gotten a delivery myself- a big box full of packing peanuts. I took these two smaller boxes out of the big box, and it's still full of packing peanuts! There was a dozen new 12 oz. bottles in each box- nice! Then I went to Akron with a dropdeck trailer to this job site where they're building a substation. I saw a dump truck there. I saw a cement mixer truck there. Sat here in the road about an hour before I could back in to get unloaded. Had to blindside in off the road, between the two piles of rock, an air compressor behind the pickup, around the bend, the other bend, and the truck to get back to the crane. I pulled up twice coming off the road to get lined up between the gravel piles, and then no more all the way back to the crane. Didn't take any video though. It was a little chilly in Akron... This used to be the home of Summit Racing Equipment This is the home of Summit Racing Equipment now. Saw three bears on the way home today.
  19. Happy birthday!..geez, only 41?..i'd have thought- I meant, wow, how can someone be so wise to be only 41 years old?
  20. Sorry to hear the sad news Mark, glad you're OK. That was indeed a great friend, and you to him for doing what you did.
  21. No, you can't do that- you can't walk outside down there without seeing killer spiders and snakes...and maybe man-eating crocodiles.
  22. Good luck with the new job, I hope everything works out well for you.
  23. His was good, mine's better of course...my uncle Buck used to say "there's no such thing as a bad stew, some is just better than others". I was doing the same thing in every picture-
  24. That's the way snakes look just before they get pulverized by a Superliner,eh?
