other dog

just tell her you've had that latest project for years, and you're surprised she'd never noticed it 'til now

don't forget the crackers

hey, it wasn't my idea! Paul started it!

possibly- I saw that same warning sign, now I don't leave home without my bells, pepper spray, and 700 Remington 30-06.

I've seen this before, but never a close-up. This is a Canadian built Hayes truck, with a grizzly about to eat the bulldog.At least I think he's about to eat him, kinda hard to tell...maybe he has something else in mind

I don't know about the warning part- he's probably filling sand bags like mad and piling them around his house now! Probably can't find any pork and beans, bottled water, or ammo anywhere in Lafollette now, so he can withstand a long siege.

I talked to Old Bill this morning on windows live messenger. Well, not really talked, we typed back and forth. The audio still works on skype (as far as I know) but he said his big unit (pc) blew up and it was at the computer doctor. He was on a linux unit he has and live messenger was the only windows program he could get on at all. Anyway, he told me to try a program called Reg Cure. It had a free download, and it's supposed to fix pretty near any problem you might have with your pc, and make it way faster-bigger,better, stronger I guess. So I downloaded the free version and it found 1,167 errors on my pc. The free version fixed 2 of them. The not-free version to fix the rest of the issues was $29.95. I went ahead and installed it, and uninstalled and installed the quickcam again, but it still doesn't work. Bill said it sounded like a DLL problem-I don't know what a DLL is, and didn't know I had one. Now I just hope the camera starts working again on it's own, like by magic or something. But that's not likely to happen.

...guess i'll never get to drive the orange Sterling with blue fenders I always wanted...

I went to LaCrosse and unloaded Monday morning and when I called in empty Todd said to go home and pick up a van load Tuesday evening in Lynchburg at 4:00pm going to Port St. Lucie, FL. So I did, except they called Tuesday evening and said it would be ready at 6:00 instead of 4:00. Had to be in Florida with it Thursday morning, so I had plenty of time to get there. I dropped the trailer at a power plant Thursday morning, and bobtailed all the way back. Good paying load too. Now i've got a load of treated lumber at the shop going to Fairview or Fairfield, Pa. Jeff said it was near Erie, and it was Fair-something or other...went in one ear and out the other. This computer has about driven me crazy since nocluejoe broke my webcam . I tried to uninstall and reinstall it, but it still wouldn't work...tried a different usb port-nothing. So I figured it must be the camera itself and bought another one, but it still wouldn't work. Re-uninstalled it and tried downloading the latest updated driver direct from Logitech-nothing. What gets me is the little icon at the bottom of the monitor says "your device is ready to use" but QuickCam says ""your camera is not plugged in, or is not working properly" . Well, duh! It's connected to a usb port, and obviously the %$&* thing ain't working properly ! I fooled with it half a day, control panel, device manager, programs and features, windows trouble shooting- i've been to 'em all...but it still wouldn't work ...wonder if Barry knows anything about computers?

cain't help it about that ugly punkin'- I took a picture of myself, blew it up to full screen size, printed it and taped it on the pumpkin. Then I just carved it by tracing the picture...

looks like Obama's sportin' a new haircut

about all I know is they have a lock nut and set screw on them to adjust the tone, otherwise if the diaphram is good and they don't have dirt dauber nests in them, I have no idea either.Glad I could help

just saw on the Roanoke tv station this morning that the U.S. Army had placed an order for 150 new big Mack trucks at the Mack/Volvo plant in Dublin,Va.

congratulations!..he doesn't seem too interested in that "Wheels of Time" though- it was one of my favorite issues! I like them old 860 GMC's.

Glad to have you.

it does look nice!

well..ok then, if that's what you really want to do. The b-model cab is very small. Amazing how Old Bill drove one for so long, and slept in it, being well over 6' tall.

you know, Daddyslilgurl is another one that's been missing for some time now. Hope she didn't get sent to her room again.

I picked everything that was left in the garden yesterday, lots of peppers and a few green tomatoes. They said it might frost last night, and it's 30 degrees here this morning. Old Bill, the Diesel Gypsy, sent me a picture of a jack-o-lantern, and Jobyna had to have one just like it. I must be off to LaCrosse now.

I ran over an unknown object right before that exit ramp i'm on near Ellerbe,N.C. and by the time I got on the ramp and pulled over the tire was destroyed. There was a hole right in the center of the tread almost big enough to stick your finger through. Or maybe it was a sniper attack...

this is the new government logo

'at's a good one!
