    Thanks all, it has been grand.

    In most cases, next of kin is not responsible for debts of the deceased. The estate of the deceased is. If the estate does not have the money, then your Dad's credit rating is really going to drop, but I'm pretty sure he could care less at this point. I guess my point is this: They're...

    Frick ME!

    I'm with Rooster. Enough to get the boots oily. Not to actually drip or leak. CERTAINLY not enough to make a golf-ball sized puddle on the ground. There is another, root cause problem here. A CCV mod won't fix it. Two things to check in my mind are the same things that Rooster...

    Swapping manual into auto truck?

    As has been discussed here a bunch of times, the best way to convert from an auto to a manual in a ford pickup is to sell your truck and buy one with a manual. It would proabably be cheaper, too. The 1989 through 2000 chevies were super easy to convert, but pretty much any model year Ford is...

    Bills aim to clean up older diesel engines

    Did anyone else catch the part about $2 per gallon damage done by diesel exhaust? We use 40 billion gallons of diesel a year JUST FOR ON-ROAD APPLICATIONS. That's $80 billion a year in "damage". Anybody else's BS-o-meter pegged? Don't you think we would have noticed that? How did they...

    Bills aim to clean up older diesel engines

    YOu want to talk about a waste of taxpayer money. Jeez. BUT, it pretty much proves my point that i've been saying all along. It was only a matter of time before all the black smoke people love to make caught up with us all and caused a real SOB of a problem. You've got websites...

    Contents of OLD Safe

    I hope you're kidding... The safe was last opened in the 1930's. The US did not join WWII until 1942.

    Contents of OLD Safe

    Man, if there is even one 1930's era buffalo head nickel or something in there you may have made your money back already. But what I'm really hoping for is a 1920's era charles daly side by side 12 gauge in mint condition with engraving and gold inlays. Then you could give it to me...

    Got my MRI Results Back...

    I typed a reply, but it did not post for some reason, so I am typing it over again. A bit of history on my condition: January 2006 - Back porch collapses out from under me, I fall. Back hurts like wildfire for 3 weeks. But I get better, no real trouble until... april 2006 - Not...

    Got my MRI Results Back...

    And it was not good news. Two ruptured disks in my back, L4 and L5. I go in to the neurosurgeon today at 10:45 PT and find out when the surgery will be, and what my options are. I'm scared witless. I am too active to give up at 27, I am not ready to be a cripple. I don't even know...

    Virginia Tech Shooting............

    What do you guys think about bringing back the old idea of state militias in a new context? Here's my idea. Train a bunch of volunteers, whoever is willing, in whatever situation that this type of thing may happen. County courthouse workers, students at universities, teachers and principals at...

    Say what you mean, mean what you say

    I wonder if it has a "naggigation" device on it. I kind of want to buy it just because of the ad :roflmao

    Virginia Tech Shooting............

    The greatest tragedy is that we are going to commit the same, horrific crime we did at Colombine, and in every other instance of a school shooting. Paste the killer's face on every TV screen. Tell his entire life's history, all the bad things that ever happened to him. Make him a dark...

    Sway

    Don't have them. Never did... Got 'em already... That's what everybody else told me, too. It only has the one up front. Not the rear.

    Sway

    I would like to try and reduce the sway that I experience with my 94 Lance 480 9.5 foot camper on my F-350 SRW. The truck does not have progressive overloads (which would probably help a lot), nor does it have a rear sway bar (which would probably help a lot). I have developed a couple of...

    Need your advice/help/whatever

    Some more info came to light today. Turns out that my boss feels like crap about the whole thing. It was his mistake, and his earlier attitude was a horrible attempt at making light of the situation because he felt bad and didn't want to make a big deal out of it. A people person he has never...

    Need your advice/help/whatever

    There isn't anything I can do legally. Employment at will, fire for no cause whatsoever. Understand that the promotion DID come with a small pay raise that was presented to me as a "trial offer" of sorts to make sure I could do the job. It was supposed to go up. Hence, my *****ing for the...

    Need your advice/help/whatever

    Hey guys, you all might remember back this summer when I was having some troubles with my boss. Never mentioned anything more about it since, mainly because I didn’t really want to put my dirty laundry out for all to see. He’s done it again, and I really don’t know what to do about it now...

    Got me some new artillery

    Picked up a Ruger M77 MKII all weather stainless steel in 300 winchester magnum the other day. The stated purpose is to replace my Winchester M70 .30-06 that I’ve had since I was 11 (I’ll get tot hat in a minute). This new rifle is very sweet. I wanted the sport model, which is stainless...

    Yeah, but I just got her moved out, which was another drain on my time and sanity. She bought a nice place not far from where we live, she's great to have around to look after the kids (the youngest of which is in my aavatar :roflmao ) while I'm out and about. She likes to come over and cook...

    I'm all teary eyed. Thanks for caring, and for missing me while I've been gone!. :thanks It is kind of odd that it was just yesterday that you guys missed me, and it was this morning that i finally got a chance to come back on and say hey to make sure everyone was doing good. It's like...

    Disgruntled Employee's final words(Photos)

    A guy did that much damage with an excavator in one NIGHT??? I mean, THAT'S PRODUCTION!!! Why did they fire him again??? The guy was OBVIOUSLY a WIZARD with the stick!!! Just kidding. But really, that did take a lot of work on his part to do so much damage, which just makes the...

    Only in Texas I've seen this!!!!!!!!!!

    Not to be sour grapes, but has it occured to anybody that that truck is, for all intents and purposes, worthless? Gooseneck? NOPE! 5th wheel? NOPE! Haul stuff in the bed? ONLY IF YOU'RE SEVEN FEET TALL AND REALLY STRONG! Add the obvious parking issues, the crappy ride, the horrific...

    Why do you get so much more out of a diesel?

    Let the record show that he has given us permission. I simply want it one record. :roflmao For a lot of reasons. Here are the big ones... 1.) Adding power in a diesel (up to a point, obviously, I'll explain that later) is just a function of dumping in more fuel. There is no air...

    Daily P.S.A.

    Maybe. Or maybe if it were 70 inside the house, that spot would have stayed warm enough to not freeze? I think that is where everyone is going with this. The pipes never froze while they were home, so my guess is that two things played a role here. They were gone, so the temps were turned...
