  1. Yesterday was a very difficult and sad day for us. Thank you to everyone for your prayers, your thoughts and everything you have done. Ursola was living with us while she was working on her recovery. Her passing was very unexpected as she was working hard and progressing quickly. Below is the one of the last videos we had taken of her recovery process.
  2. There was a TV series on the History Channel called the 'Kings of Pain'. Two guys, one a biologist and the other an animal handler, doing this type of stuff to modify the current 'pain/damage/danger' lists that are used. It was actually an interesting show.
  3. Wish I have more property here in TX, I'd offer it up here.
  4. You may have given in too soon. Any Pics?
  5. I was right there with ya brother.
  6. Comes from being an IT guy from northern Ohio, living in Texas with a bunch of Mexican friends and having a 'Happy Hour' via Zoom. To be 100% Honest one of the guys probably saw it on the interweb somewhere before we came up with it. We're not that creative.
  7. I used the Barnett set in my '06. I did not see the reference marks either but everything worked very well when I was done. Like I've said in previous posts, I am no mechanic or gearhead.
  8. I 'm surprised nobody mentioned that Cinco de Mayo falls on Taco Tuesday this year and it's basically being kept down by a bug named after a Mexican beer.
  9. C'mon Puc, Google is your Friend. Besides, I am not that versed. Want to do this with PC history and I can go that route.
  10. Hey Sailor, Is this what you were referring to?
  11. Here is that Episode of Counting Cars
  12. This sounds like something I saw on a show. It was a custom rig for a guy in a wheel chair.
  13. That's pretty cool. I wonder how many vehicles they left in the jungle though. that would be very telling.
  14. That was actually a fun search. Saw a ton of unique photos I would not have seen otherwise. Maybe this needs to become a monthly forum challenge.
  15. This is the closest I could find. Something like this mod?
  16. Happy belated Birthday sir.
  17. Seriously though I've seen a modified small dirt bike that looked like this, basically the old 3 wheeler ATV look. And I found this pic online:
  18. This is what they say in Mexico
  19. Here is that vid you were looking for. Saw it some time ago.
  20. I have the Reda and I've used it once when riding in a group, not even in my bike (Darn Harleys with peanut tanks). It fit in my '06 without issue but it does not fit well in the SVTC I have now. I now carry it all the time though empty most of the time. See my comment above for the reason. All of my gas cans with the exception of the Reda have normal spouts so I was not familiar with the locking setup. Took a few seconds to see it wasn't flowing. You can just imagine the language at first. I do like the idea and have kept the original spout with it. I've got a mechanic buddy I ride with and he has just a generic can. He replaced his spout because he didn't like the locking spout.
  21. BTW What's that saying? It didn't happen if there ain't no pictures.
  22. My wife went to Medjugorje, Bosnia about 20 or so years ago for a religious trip. At that point she commented on the devastation she had seen. I also had a regular cabbie I would use in New Orleans when there on business and they were from Bosnia. The Son had shrapnel wounds and the stories described awful situations. They also went back pretty much every year at that point. The dad would go back and stay the summer. Great people. He and I talked often about my wife's trip, he even brought her holy water from Medjugorje. I think for the most part she avoided those areas although in several of the rides you could see a lot of abandoned homes and locations. The scenery was just amazing and even in the cities for me. I don't care for cities but these are areas that I will not get to see unless I hit the lotto. Alas, you gotta play to win so I doubt that will happen since I pick up a ticket or 2 only a few times a year.
  23. I'm hooked also but I chose to start from the beginning. Finished S1 yesterday. I've been seeing the titles of the latest vids and been chomping to get to them. Just need to maintain the discipline a little while longer.
