  1. I hear them Virginia Polar Bears and Dingos are good eatin......especially with hot sauce!
  2. Bizarro Bandit?
  3. donald.schumaker@consultant.macktrucks.com Send an email to Don. Be advised that there is a 6-8 week backlog, for several reasons- the museum is staffed mainly by volunteers, including the archivists, and their time is limited (not to mention the large amount of requests that they receive.) Also, when you do get a package in the mail- make sure you send a nice donation to the Museum. Yes they are sponsored by Mack Corporate, however their budget is limited and they rely on donations to fill the gap in between.
  4. I have a bunch of Aussie firefighter friends and I know we have a few aussies on here, I can't remember everyone specifically with the exception of mackpaul..... . I have been listening to the Sampson Flat wildfire near Adelaide in SA on broadcastify.com and it is absolutely incredible- 25+ years as a career and volunteer firefighter and I have never heard anything like it before. Your fireys are getting their asses kicked but they are not giving up.....I know theres another big one in Ararat, Victoria about 2 hours south of Melbourne- a buddy of mine who is a career firey, City of Melbourne deployed on a Strike Team down there yesterday. My prayers to you all.
  5. Angelo now you have plenty of time to sniff detroit exhaust the roses.
  6. The forgotten box has been dispatched by the United States Postal Authorities. Predicted delivery is Monday 1/5. All I ask for is the price to ship them to you- $11.70. If it turns out you don't use them, I just ask that you get them to someone who can use them. Regards, The FWD Corporation/Freightliner Handles Division/Hellertown Pa. Field Office
  7. Considering what we paid for that hunk of prime rib, it'll be chicken and pork for a little while.
  8. NO. This is NOT always the case. There are some exceptions, I cannot recall exactly what they were, but there are cases where gold bulldogs are installed on Mutts. My father's Hayward F-Model had a 300 with a 5 speed and an original Rockwell 2-speed rear and had a gold dog. I will email Harvey Eckert and see what exactly the story is and post it here.
  9. By the way, here's the finished product. Only the second time I have ever done a prime rib, the first time was new years eve last year. Both times they came out dead on balls accurately done to perfection. Sometimes I am so good I amaze even myself.
  10. Call me paranoid, but methinks OD is making mockery of another member of BMT who just happened to make a perfect prime rib last night for New Year's Eve Dinner........And posted pix of it on Facebook........then had his pics on FB hijacked and photochopped.......I can neither confirm or deny that this may or may not have been left on my FB with a postmark of Gladys, Va.... Quote: "In all my years, i've never had prime rib before. If you want to mail me a slice, here's a serving suggestion."
  11. He's from the Gubmint, and he's there to help.
  12. Morgan Smith Goodwin
  13. That's the Pony Express Donkey delivering Hatcity's hot sauce from Gladys, Va.
  14. Remember when McDonalds had the slogan "We do it all for you?" The bitch behind the counter wouldn't do anything for me, so I had to go to Burger King and "Get it my way."
  15. Congrats Angelo my buddy!!! All my best to you!!!
  16. Was that the carton from Gladys, Va? Did it have my name on it?
  17. I'm with ya, but also saying they may have the parts or could point you in the right direction......
  18. http://www.stengelbros.com/ I see you are in Berks County. Try Stengel Brothers in Allentown. Very reputable. I send my firetrucks there whenever we have any kind of suspension/spring concerns.
  19. "I had that."- Yardo, 1999
  20. Over in Philly, but especially in the 5 counties immediately surrounding Philly you have the Haines and Kibblehouse conglomerate of companies. John Haines IV is also a big antique truck enthusiast, and hosts an annual show at his house that several of us on here take our rigs to every year.
  21. How can he RAISE the taxes when there aren't any on fracking or extraction to begin with?? LOL.......And it it eases off of that RINO Corbett's .32 per gallon gas tax, and puts some money into the education coffers- tax them I say. The oil industry can afford it, it's not going to break their backs. And they're not going anywhere- the oil reserves in Pa are estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of barrels.
  22. details...details......
  23. ......and you wouldnt have to slam your fingers in the door to keep your mind off the sound.......
  24. Oh, good. That's two Macungies, one Trucktoberfest, three visits to the Tilted Kilt and one visit to Winfall.
  25. I concur.....Since your old one is 2006.....Bite the bullet and get a new one. I bought a new unit from www.tigerdirect.com You can get them to build you a tower according to your wishes. Had them build me a custom unit a few years back when I was into digital photography big time. Was pretty reasonable too. Please make sure you do not lose the photochoppage program. That would make me have a sad.
