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.

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.

I noticed that immediately.

heh heh,,yeah, thas what im talking bout hatcity. We still got one place in nother town bout 20 miles away, 3 men , all in their seventies run it, its a starter, generator, electical rebuild shop. They work on air conditoners too. These 3 guys know their business inside out, when they work on something,,its fixed! They all 3 wear leather aprons, got parts and stuff scattered everywhere, store smells oily, and they dont put you off, they work on it right when you come in the door, even let you stand by and watch them tear into something. I needed a starter solenoid for 69 galion motorgrader bout a month ago, took it off, stopped in local chain parts store in town cause i was in a hurry. They wanted to order it, take 3 days to get it, and cost $88.00. I told them I would find it, drove twenty miles to starter shop, walked in door, showed them, old guy reached up on shelf over his head, gave it to me and charged me $22.00, the exact solenoid! Now thats service you got to just appreciate! Dont care what anybody says, those were the good ole days,,randy

I remember the old parts book. It just burns me up now to go to a parts store for a generic type item like a wheel stud or headlight and they want to know the make and model of the vehicle so they can look it up. Advance Auto Parts is the worst. I stopped at the one in Dillwyn one time to get a low beam headlight for the truck- a 2A1 I think it is, you can get them anywhere and they're all the same. First thing the guy wanted to know was the make and model of the vehicle. I didn't figure they listed Peterbilt parts anyway so I said "i'm building a spaceship in the backyard and I want to put headlights on it". He just stood there looking stupid and speechless. Then I started to leave and the woman in there went and got one off the shelf and put it on the counter. I paid for it and as I was leaving she said "good luck with your spaceship".

From an e-mail I recieved-

Subject:* Obama Classmates View of the Big Plan for America

Even if this cannot be documented; this is actually

what's happening in the USA! This is what it is all about; total economic

system/infrastructure failure in our Nation is fast approaching

irreversibility!

------------------------------

One person's analysis.

Obama's Agenda: Overwhelm The System

Rahm Emanuel cynically said, "You never want a crisis to go to

waste." It is now becoming clear that the crisis he was referring to

is Barack Obama's presidency.

Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is

brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely

overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic

crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our

country from within.

Barack Obama is my college classmate ( Columbia University , class of

'83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is

following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia

University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming

the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up

the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming. Taken as a

whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United

States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that

desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on

to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no

responsibility to pay for it.

-- Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do

with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions

of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to

20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions).

Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million

Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care

about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to

Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would

pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do

with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global

warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income,

government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to

Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions

and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then

be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back

hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the

Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new

taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps

Obama "spread the wealth around."

-- Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state?

Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and

government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression?

Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan

all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five

Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are

dependent on big government.

-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. Just giving these 12

million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm

the system and bankrupt America . But it adds 12 million reliable new

Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government.

Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent

children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the

poor, and eventually Social Security.

-- Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to

Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including

billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees

across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their

employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that

Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1

million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers

(thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will

vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions

that are bankrupting America . The country goes broke, future

generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party,

government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the

means.

-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job

creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of

taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those

who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted

to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama

wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.

With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a

vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big

government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for

big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism

and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the

system.

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all

devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama.

there WAS a cow in the back yard-got pictures to prove it. And i'm sure i'm not the only one to confuse a bb gun with a .460 Weatherby magnum, probably happens all the time.

Careful there OD, it might be EL CHUPACABRA.

http://buzz.yahoo.com/buzzlog/93844?fp=1

that's why I went with the .460 instead of the .300 magnum- better to have too much firepower than not enough.
