Yeah Chrome was real popular until the EPA got involved with the chemicals it takes to make it.

Just because those lab rats in Cali are wusses. They should use some rats from Nyc or Detroit

Just found out one of my sons friends who I have known since she was born, and I am friends with her parents was killed today in a car accident. The poor girl overcame drug addiction, alcohol addiction to go away in her late twenties. Such a waste.

Good Monday morning folks.



We have lift-off!

My wife's car was out of the garage so I took a picture. I had to stand behind the 911 to get it all in. You might notice I do have some light in the work bay. I actually want to add another 8 ft pair of tubes.

Now I just need to get the pit for the lift done so I can get rid of the boards.

He was a bit surprised as I got on at my favorite on ramp. It has a fun curve and long ramp. He was very quiet. No screaming but he did get pale. .
hahahahahahaha

love it

well had a dose of food poisoning on the weekend so that blew (sic) away half of Saturday and most of Sunday, just starting to feel normal today, and have managed to get away from the bucket and the dunny.

Life sucks when you have food poisoning.

So, it would be inconsiderate of me if I talked about Lu and I eating raw oysters this past weekend. I'll spare you that story.







i've had food poisoning five times..

Had a couple of drugs during my foot ordeal that came right back up. Really surprising as my stomach hadn't rejected anything for decades.

Hi Jeff, have a good, uneventful drive back to Alice.

Azzy, I don't think the "food poisoning + heave ho" diet will ever catch on.
