  2. "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just" Thomas Jefferson.
  3. Thanks for taking the time to create this site, and now, to maintain and update. I dunno how you find the time. Thanks again.
  4. I'd rather entrust the government of the United States to the first 400 people listed in the Boston telephone directory than to the faculty of Harvard University. William F Buckley Jr .
  5. "Cogito ergo spud"..... Translated: "I think, therefore I yam"
  6. [h=1]“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”[/h]
  7. Dunno...never rode either, but back in 86 when I didn't have a pot to pee in or a window to throw it out of...that FJ1200 was on my dream wish list.
  8. Oh Please.....I had to Google that guy to see who he was and what he looked like. I've been told David Coverdale, Mark Singer, Sammy Hagar, and my favorite was Dirk Bentley.....Lisa and I were at a Bob Evans enjoying breakfast and the waiter came over and said "Those people over there said you're Dirk Bentley....are you him????......I said no...and at the time didn't even know who he was....a few minutes later he came back and said "They're sure you ARE him.....ARE you him?????"....I laughed and said no...I'm not whoever Dirk Bentley is... Went home and Googled him as well... It's just the hair. People see it and associate me with whomever else they've seen with a similar style.
  9. Not my best pic, but here it is. I jumped in the shower to wash all the blood out of my hair, then had Lisa comb it away from the cuts and put a washcloth on it, and the stretchy headband thing to hold it in place. Kept it there there until I went to bed.
  10. Wife says it scabbed over nicely...(gotta trust her as I can't see it)....Gonna go back at it today. Took the week off to get this done and the weeks comin' to an end quickly.....Seems like I used to get this stuff done faster when I was a young fella.
  11. Been re-siding the garage and replacing the small porch that gets my brother up to his apartment..... Went to move the ladder and forgot the hammer on top. Frickin' claw end hit me right on top of the melon.... Rubbed my head, and came back with a bloody hand....then it started dripping down my face and got in my eye....lol....I'm not happy, but at this point I'm trying not to laugh at myself....It was raining a bit so I had to throw the tools in the garage,,,drove the van back up to the house and kept the bad side away from the wife and told her I'm ok.....don't freak....and she pretty much didn't.....Washed my hair....combed it away from the two gashes where the claw hit...put a washcloth on it with my wifes stretchy headband to keep pressure...now just gotta sit here and make sure I didn't crack my skull....If I don't start seeing spots or getting nauseated, I think I'll be ok....I have a really hard head.... I'm done working for today...lol.....
  12. Here's a timely one: "Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it."
  13. "We're all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid." Ben Franklin.
  14. "'America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we lose our freedoms it will be because we have destroyed ourselves from within.' — Abraham Lincoln"
  15. What can one say.....My deepest sympathy goes out to the family.....I've personally experienced such a death by someone close to me and know the pain that it causes to loved ones. No one knows what goes on in someones mind that would cause them to take such drastic action, but it's also true that no one knows what happens between a person and God either. It may be small comfort, but Gods will be done. Rest in peace Dale....see ya on the other side.
  16. I think it was Mark Twain who said: "It's much easier to fool people than to get them to realize they've been fooled."
  17. "Change oil soon" indicator came on in my work van, so I stopped at the local NAPA to get what I needed for a change. I asked if they had any oil change deals going on and he said they had a sale on NAPA brand synthetic blend oil and a oil filter.....I didn't ask the price, but told him to go for it. 6 quarts of 5w 30 oil and a oil filter. Out the door it was $18.19. I told him he must have made a mistake as it was too cheap. He said "nope"...that's the deal. Oil is $2.19 a quart....can't remember how much the filter was....do the math.... Anyhoo, he says the sale goes on all week, so I'm going to go back and stock up. Been a while since I was able to change oil for under $20....let alone using a synthetic blend.
  18. ​Confucius say: Man who stand on toilet is high on pot. He also said......Man who keep hand in pocket feel cocky all day. I got tons of 'em ....I'll stop for a while.
  19. It's easier to fool people than to make them realize they've been fooled.
  20. Youth is such a wonderful thing.....It's a shame it's wasted on the young
  21. You can tune a piano, but ya can't tuna fish.
  22. I'd take a bottle infronta me over a frontal labotamy any day.
  23. Personally, I'm not too keen on the idea of driving into Mexico, but I would like to see it. My niece, Tabi has been splitting her time between San Miguel, Mexico and Central Ohio for 15 years now. A couple of times a year she's been driving there and back on her own. She says she doesn't stop in Mexico until she's a few hours from the border. She also says the police are corrupt, but it's really not a big deal...If you get a speeding ticket, you pay them directly instead of the government....cost is about the same and is negotiable. She's 5'4 and of a gentle nature, so I guess if she can do it, others can too.
  24. I'd think a decent machine shop should be able to clean them up without removing much material.
