Great gun to have if you ever find a T-Rex running around in your back yard.

Form now on I will get put my reading glasses on BEFORE I enlarge any posted picture, just to make sure I really do want to enlarge it. Now I'm afraid of having nightmares tonight.

TEBOW TEBOW TEBOW, if the Lions can't advance the next best thing is the Steelers get booted by TEBOW. Even the refs couldn't save the Steelers this year.

Made my reservations at the Oberlin Inn today. Glad to see Ventureriders get a discount.

I can't tell my Daughter about this. Took her to her first Waffle House when we rode to the International Rally in Arkansas. Every morning had to go to Waffle House, She loves their waffles and grits. Someday I'll have to learn how to make grits, restaurants up here use instant grits and she will have no part of them. LOL Grits is one of the reasons she wants to move south. OH and don't leave an unguarded plate of cornbread and beans near her either, she had them in Tennessee.

Just before we all went to Ludington I needed brake pads for the 83VR and not having much money to spend I went to Rocky's in Burton (Flint) and bought some that they had for $10 a pair. They stop the bike better then any pad I have ever used. I don't care if they only last 1/2 the miles of the expensive ones I used because the braking is so much better. If you want to know the brand I saved the package so I know to buy the same ones next time, I just have to go to the old house because a lot of my motorcycle parts are still there locked up in the shed.

In Abigails math class they let them use calculators even during a test, but at home doing her homework I won't let her. At first she wasn't to fond of my rule and got a lot of the problems wrong when I checked her work, then made her do the problem over again in front of me so I could see what she did wrong. Now she hardy ever asks for help and usually gets them all correct. It's funny when a clerk makes a mistake giving change Abigail will speak right up and correct them. Now at the grocery store when they get the total and I hand them money to pay it Abigail will blurt out what change I should get beck. The clerks will look at what the register says and say "you're right" like shes some math wizard. Seems like common sense isn't very common anymore.

So thats why I get nothing done all day and feel like I worked all day. Now I know I was going to do something else when I set down to the computer.

83 Venture...help!!!!
KarlS replied to Brianb's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
If you have not done the fuse box upgrade yet it may well be the fuse box itself. -
How does a person possibly find the words to properly thank so many people who helped us today. I don't think I've cried so much in my life, I can hardy see the screen to type this. I told Abigail what you wonderful people have done and she says thanks and hopes you all have a Merry Christmas. Abigail has been so great during all this, never complains, and never giving me any grief because of having to go to Goodwill and Salvation Army for things. I didn't know she didn't have a winter coat anymore until I noticed her wearing 3 hoodies. I've never had a problem helping others but have a hard time excepting help and wouldn't of this time if Freebird wouldn't of called me. For the first time in a very long time I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I cannot express how I feel towards all of you. Thank You all so very very much and may everyone have a Merry Christmas and may God Bless you all........Karl

Setting here day after day after day staring at the same four walls day in and day out something has to snap. Tonight it snapped, and I cut loose. No food, no money I said to hell with it and went shopping, I have check protection with my credit union so every bad check I write only costs me $20 more. I went to the grocery store and bought $174 worth of food so we didn't have to live on roman noodles for the rest of the month. I went 11 days being so sick I could barely get out of bed before I broke down and went to the Doctor that I could not afford and found out I have a lung and sinus infection which is the reason I could hardly breathe and had such god awful headaches and then had to pay him and then pay for prescriptions. Then today if it could go bad it went bad, I came home after writing a bad check for food to have my Daughter waiting for me crying that her knee hurt. Why did her knee hurt? She used the small step latter we have to try and get something off the top shelve in her bedroom at the bigger mobile home we just moved into and evidently she didn't lock the latter into place because it folded up on her and she fell (she is OK thankfully because as of Oct 1st the state of Michigan felt she no longer qualified for health insurance ) and put her knee threw the wall in her room and fell across the cable hook up for her TV and ripped it out the back of the TV. So I go and escape tonight to the local bar and spend $40 drinking jack and coke and talking with friends and strangers over 13 years old just to get away from it all. So now I will beat myself to death for the rest of the month because I spent $40 on myself and wrote a bad check for food that will set me back at the first of the month when I get my next disability check. You all need to take a careful look at how you are prepared for life, I thought I had everything taking care of, but one fall down the basement stairs changed my life forever, insurance and the government will make sure you loose everything you saved and have before they lift a finger in your behave. No Christmas tree this year because there is no presents to put under it. I have to keep the internet going because the schools don't supply books anymore and my Daughter has to go on line for homework, have to pay rent to keep a roof over our heads, got to pay consumers to have heat and power, have to pay for water and sewer and garbage pickup, need to pay insurance to drive, need to pay medicade for insurance and silverstone for prescriptions just like any one of you do. So now I will spend the rest of the month hating myself for spending $40 stinking dollars on myself instead of setting at home going nuts. Lot of people do not understand (like I didn't) what it means to be broke, not the broke that you used up you allotted money for the month and you can just get more out of the bank or the credit card, but the kind of broke that there is just no more money to get. How do you decide what to write a bad check for, for food or for a winter coat, boots and gloves. She just will have to be cold going and coming to and from school but she will have food to eat. Guess I have ranted enough even though it's only a fraction of what I want to be able to say, but it sucks when you realize that you used to go to bed praying that things will be better or not worse tomorrow to going to bed wishing you don't wake up the next morning. Thanks for being there to let me rant.....Karl.

1959 is my favorite, love the fins and the dash especially. Almost had one once but stupid me got married instead. (car/truck would of lasted longer and would of been a lot cheaper)

Line was to long, they would of been out of money by my turn.

No it just looks like it's already been dropped. The looting and killings have already started. Kroger 1/2 mile from me was robbed this morning.
