  1. And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land Called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their Will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that Person known as "The One." He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He Hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack Of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my Association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you With Hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the Land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation, And that all he has built must be destroyed. And the people rejoiced, For even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised That it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said " We live in The greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!" And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!" Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the People said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And The people said, "Show us the money!" And the he said, " Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody.." And Joe the plumber asked, " Are you kidding me? You're going to Steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One" Ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized. One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was Banished from the Kingdom's press corps ". Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and Having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with Radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with Them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they Will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people Said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons Into free cars for the people!" Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one, lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One" said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!" And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!" Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market collapsed. And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!" Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas." And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?" Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, Not to worry. If your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out. Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!" Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king! And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like a rock dropped from a cliff. The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support. Then "The One" said, "I am the "the Chosen One"- The Messiah - and I'm here to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have to pay more... And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is not fair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!" And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that consumed all that they had built. And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish, "give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too late, and their homeland was no more. You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not. It's happening RIGHT NOW The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom. GOD BLESS AMERICA
  2. Like Rob said LOL. The only other dedicated sites are for International Harvester, Marmon and CF/Freighliner. Paul
  3. Those people are nuts. My thoughts with the drum is after I have it lifted off is to quarter it, empty it and re weld it. It will never be functional just look the part. Paul
  4. It's a runner, I'm interested. My AC chassis is a project I hope to live long enought to finish and my mixer has a full drum of concrete ,so thats a project too.
  5. My AC and B were both built in N.J. I don't have a scanner but in John Montvilles book "BULLDOG" there are a few photos of the early part of the Plainfield plant with AB and AC chassis coming out if this door. Paul
  6. We got a live person only taking messages while her boss was out working. I still got a week left of forced vacation, so I'll try a few more times and send over my cousin. Paul
  7. Apparently not very interested in selling it. I called friday afternoon and evening, saturday a couple of times and sunday before we left Hunter to come home. We were only 40 miles or so from it and just kept getting told to call back in a few hours. Paul
  8. $11,500 was in an older ad, really not to bad for the condition it's in. IMO Paul
  9. We've flushed the gear bxes by removing the PTO covers and drain plug(s) and liberal internal spray down with Brakeklean, it won't attack the seals. Others may have an easier or better method than this. You can also get a synthetic and petrolium based oil too. Paul
  10. My uncle was killed on the USS OKLAHOMA at Pearl Harbor, The Missouri is berthed at that spot, across from the entrance is/ was a souviner kyosk ......most of them were made in Japan. The USS Oklahoma family association protested that a were asked what the problem was,so a taco bell or goat head sandwich stand would not surprise me at all at any Veterens Cemetary or Memorial. Most people have no idea of our history or respect for it. Sadly a different world than I grew up in,luckly my kids and grand kids have that respect in them. Paul
  11. Yep forgot to mention give it a GOOD FLUSH.
  12. I agree leave it whole, it looks too nice to part out. FYI in N.Y. any pre title (I think 1973 and older) yo need a bill of sale and a tracing off the VIN. The DMV will than issue a 1 year non transferable registration. After the year if nothing bad shows up in the system they'll issue a standard tranferable registation. I did this with my B and my AC even though they were non runners just to get it over with. Paul
  13. Ive used synthetic in older rears and trannies. The main different I was told by Dutchman Diesel who does our rears and trannies, that synthetic does not break down or degrade over time and the lubrication qualities are more consistant. What I have found is easier shifting and quieter. IMO. Paul
  14. Did you see the link on the e bay add for the U tube video of it? I sure wish I had more room for it! Paul
  15. Tried to cut and paste but new forum would not let me do it, so here is the item number ebay # 270790306424 1939 Mack BM. Looks good!!
  16. Some legends with Camp Hero are: active HAARP units, our involvement in time travel ,the "Philadelphia" experiment, Reptile men and a UFO base. People sure have wild imaginations. Everything of value was removed in the 1980's including the array motors and such. Some vandals hit the housing area in the 90's but it is at the end of the island (less than 500 yds from the Atlantic ocean) and only 1 road in for 25 miles
  17. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/08/04/16-countries-including-mexico-file-briefs-against-new-alabama-immigration-law/#content Since when do other countries have this much say in our laws? If Mexico is so interested in " protecting" its citizens, they should start dealing with their domestic internal mess! And, of course, they conveniently leave out the fact that Mexico has much tougher laws against illegals in their own country than Alabama does! How about the fact that Mexican immigration law stipulates that" Mexico can DEPORT FOREIGNERS who are deemed detrimental to “economic or national interests,” violate Mexican law, are not “physically or mentally healthy” or lack the “necessary funds for their sustenance” and for their dependents ( Washington Times)". Always pointing fingers at the United States, but people need to wake up and realize that illegals have no rights in this country; we are a country that governs and functions by the rule of law and order; there is no place for ILLEGAL immigration.
  18. The pipe and duct insulation, ceiling tiles, floor tiles and the concrete /asbestos shingles on the base buildings. Media blasting all the concrete and sealing it to encapsulate the asbestos fibers added to increase the strength. Surprised no ones mentioned the lead based solder in the remaining equipment or plumbing We worry about that and then fill up on smokes and micky dees.........go figure.
  19. It was the other way cuz the radar dogs were in a tall row not a flat row. those are the frikazee moniters
  20. I took 1/2 as vacation so only lost 1 weeks pay..... Most of the pieces from the the cabinets was used in the Nike Ajax or Nike Hercules sites that were all over Long Island or scrapped as being obsolete. Paul
  21. I never even thought to see if the Jersey plant was still there, I think that 1325 is the part of the original SAUER trucks building with the stone International Motors logos, that's what is on the ABs, ACs and AKs. The Manhattan plant was torn down in 1946 and the Astoria plant was / is Swingline Staplers by the el. The LI City plant is part of the NYC FD truck garage on the western service road of the LIE. Paul
  22. The original plant was at 1325 West Front and opened in 1911, 1355 West Front (building b ) opened just before WWII and closed in 1961 when the Hagerstown plant opened. Got this from the Plainfield N.J library site. Paul
  23. Since I got a forced 2 weeks off becuase of the economy , we went back to Camp Hero to see more of "Robs Radar". Got a tour of the inside of the tower and the array (it's steel!). I definatly need one to grill on..... Heres some pics the last 2 are photos of photos, I took over 60 more. I joined the volenteer group to help set it up as a museum, mainly so I can crawl all over it. Paul
