BAH!! HUMBUG!!!

When I was a young un I remember using oil filters that used a roll of toilet paper in them. They seemed to work OK but I wonder how they would be in modern engines.

Local pick a part has them for $65. Regular salvage yard gets $125.

I just get a piece of 2X4,2X6 or 2X8 channel, or box, and make one. The different sizes depending what it;s going on.

When I was a young'un I wanted to join the Navy. When I turned 18 I realized I couldn't swim,,,,so I joined the Air Force instead. :hmm:

Your daughters sound like a couple of winners. Wonder if their upbringing may have had something to do with it.

Grandma and grandpa were watching a religious healing program on TV. The evangelist called to all who wanted to be healed, to put one hand on the TV and the other on the body part they wanted healed. Grandpa hobbled to the TV and put one hand on the TV and the other on his crotch. Grandma looked at him with disgust.... "You just don't understand do you, you old coot.. The purpose of this program is to heal the sick, not raise the dead!!"

I believe this subject is getting a little political and touchy. I suggest we drop it.

Their three kids, all successful, agreed to a Sunday dinner in their honor. "Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad," gushed Son No. 1. 'Sorry I'm running late. I had an emergency at the hospital with a patient, you know how it is, and I didn't have time to get you a gift." "Not to worry," said the father. "Important thing is we're all together today." Son No. 2 arrived. "You and Mom look great, Dad. I just flew in from LA between depositions and didn't have time to shop for you." "It's nothing," said the father. "We're glad you were able to come." Just then the daughter arrived. "Hello and happy anniversary! Sorry, but my boss is sending me out of town and I was really busy packing so I didn't have time to get you anything." After they had finished dessert, the father said, "There's something your mother and I have wanted to tell you for a long time. "You see, we were really poor, but we managed to send each of you to college. Through the years your mother and I knew we loved each other very much, but we just never found the time to get married." The three children gasped and said, "WHAT? You mean we're bastards?" "Yep", said the father, "Cheap ones too..."

Got a couple I'll give ya. Send me a SASE.

Got a couple. What do you need?

OhKay. Let's play Top This. First liar doesn't have a chance but somebody has to start. When I was in Korea my .50 machine gun quit working because the bullet froze in the barrel. Next...

Anytime Jim-san. But N. Alabama where I am isn't much warmer than your neighborhood. And yes, I'm sick of winter already too. Seems to get worse every year................ Worse? I am wearing shorts with a polo shirt today and it was 60ºF outside. Wants to see a pic of Alexia in shorts, with a MJ in the background of course. DOM :brows:

Tnx Don. Keep yer offer in mind. Fact of the matter is I don't care to live anyplace else except Colorado. It's the mountains. Pretty much been around the world several times and I keep coming back here. Again, it's the mountains. Ive seen -62 in Thule Greenland. I've seen 127 above in Algeria. So no matter how hot or cold it gets here, I can say Ive seen worse. Not saying I like it. Just saying Ive seen it.

HMMMMPH!!!

Not even winter yet and already I',m tired of the cold. Was out feeding the animals and the horses gathered around me for warmth. Wonder if I showed up on Don's doorstep if he would have a bunk for me for the winter. Or some body in Fla. :yes:

Well Damn Don. Thanks for clearing THAT up. Here all this time I was thinking it was because they didn't like me. :rotf:

Don't have no Datsun stuff but do have the trip carb set up from a 1962 Austin Healy 3000. One of the few cars, trucks, I purchased new off the dealers show room.

You want to see a collection of worthless parts, drop by my place sometime. I'm the original pack rat and never, but never throw anything away that MIGHT be useable some day. Still have the spark plugs I swapped out of a '38 Buick back in 1950. As well as the hood ornament and grill. Hey....Who knows. They might start making '38 Buicks again and and when they do I'll have a head start. :brows: Got a nice collection of 1934-41 Chevy hood ornaments. Hey. They might be good for someting, someday.

:rotfl2:

If you get stuck in a mud hole you can remove the carpeting and place it under your tires.

Take a look at the corners of the blade. Any plow that's been used a couple times will have the corners rounded off. Not nice and square like those are.It's been a pavement queen.

The straps on mine were so worn when I got it I didn't trust them. Replaced them with a set from Auto Zone that's 15 inches longer. Should take a 35 with no problem.

Send him around. I got a couple with 2.8's he can have.

Don't know how many times I've been told that. It's sitting in my yard with valid plate on it and I've got the title. Anytime anybody wants to take a look at them.
