They were not forthcoming and when I looked down at him he was sound asleep!

The 's cousin has narcolepsy. He fell asleep one day while riding his Norton Commando

I dig the red rims on that Patrol...

I once saw a Pig in NM that was green with a purple grill and purple rims, it was the most beautiful truck ever!

Oh no, not Paige. She focuses on the WAY THE FUCK OUT THERE, hence the drifting...


"Look Dad, cranes..." and the Tercel drifts towards the cranes that are way out to the left.

My X has that Range Rover classic. Two light switches in one year. Without me around to work on it, it has not been able to go out after dark for two years now

Repairs can make it feel like a brand new truck!

He said TRIM!

Man, I accomplished a ton yesterday. I really kicked ass on homework and projects. Two big ones left for the week. Then I will be clear to prepare for my math test that falls on Thursday

I just read something on that the other day and if I can remember where it was on line or in the magazine I will refer you or forward... but Yoop and grrl can most likely give you the straight scoop in a lot fewer words than I can.

They are actually orange rims, must be the red dust making them look red in that pic.

BTW Hey Stinky

Yeah, I had to be super focused, this is the biggest load I have had since coming back, just found myself with tons to do. So I decided to use all day yesterday to complete what I could, and then today I will finish off the two bigger pieces. I will do my paper on a psyc article today, and prepare my presentation for Education.

it really was the exct same header design, except for a half inch where the collector meets the tail part of the exhaust - we janked the exhaust forward a bit

I also got a custom frame hanger for the exhaust to reduce vibrations thanks to Kevin

They have made many improvements since I was riding dinosaurs. I have always liked them. Not once in all of my years ordering from them have I ever got a defective or shoddy part. Instructions are always clear and they stand behind their stuff. I bought some parts for the 62 before it got crushed by a tree and never put them on... They were laying around the shop for about a year or more. I called them and there was no problem returning anything for full credit. Did not even charge me a restocking fee.

You having fun with the girls this AM or are they still in bed?

They are still in bed, but Paige is stirring. She hears me doing laundry and making tea, and jamming Zep, so she is waking up. Little shit. She gets up all early with me on the weekdays. Total morning person. Before 5:30 she is in here with me on my lap hanging out.

the next packing will have me hack everything into a spreadsheet that I can print out and tells me which box has what inventory

High Tech Wheelin'

If I did that I would have to leave myself a note stuck to the dash to tell me where I put the spreadsheet.

Yes, kids are all different... Both BIL's kids can sleep until the afternoon without any problem whatsoever.

That is almost the orange I would love to paint my whole 60.

I used to run black wheels on my rigs, and then all of a sudden it became a fad with the selling of the NASCAR style wheel as a "Rock Crawler". So on my 60 I switched to the old skool white wagon wheels...

FWIW I reckon the best set up is a snorkel with a Donaldson™ pre-cleaner on top. We use this set up on the farm I used to work on with the tractors and the pre-cleaners removed 95% of the dirt before it got to the air cleaner itself.

This is just some of the weird shit we used to do when riding the beaches... when we were still allowed to do it around here. We took a big rubber band of broccoli and put a doubled piece of panty hose over the snout of the air filter intake... we also put the big girl end over the air filter... never over the carb part because of fear of a back fire getting everything started.

Used to work pretty good. We would always take an air compressor and blow all the sand and dust outta everything one step at a time making sure nothing got down into the throttle body.

Then every inch of the car would get rinsed and washed. You would be amazed to see the amount of sand in the driveway under and downstream from the vehicle. I never had any rust problem either.

I haven't bought a CD in over a year, so I don't know about the newer ones, but all the ones I had, I had no problem ripping them.

Just stick it in yer puter, use the music ripping / burning software of your choice - like iTunes or Toast. Follow the prompts.

When they'er done, drag and drop from your computer onto your iPod.

[grrlscout89FJ62]

Watched No Country for Old Men last night. It was pretty gud. A bit bizarre, and a high body count, but gud.
