Trying to figure out what I am going to do with my truck. Want to take it back east this summer and a cam, t/c, 366 spring, timing spacer, and all that would be nice. But I am thinking a new t/c is probably going to be the best money spent as far as durability and fuel mileage is concerned.
Hoping my tax return will pay for it and leave a little left over.
See what the IRS keeps for not paying my taxes to a private company (i.e, obamacare).

Good morning on this fine Monday Morning. Weeellll, it's Monday anyway, just not sure about the 'fine' part yet. It is still too dark outside to see anything. Yesterday we had some sun. Never seen it so cloudy and cool for so long here in Mexico and I have lived here for going on 14 years. Yesterday I had to wear jeans instead of my usual shorts to go out. This will never do! Today is forecast to be warmer, but cloudy. Hope it does warm up because I need to find a fix a problem I have just discovered on my truck. Yesterday noticed that the fuel gauge was going down unusually fast and now see that the front pumpkin and steering mechanism is all oily, plus a few drips on the driveway. You think that I have a fuel leak?

Being the early bird I cleaned up the messy breakroom, made a nice fresh pot of Mexican coffee (did not scrub the scaly pot, just rinsed it), have some hot water in a thermos (a good Stanley green) some ph00 for the ph00'ees and best of all a few plates of hot, fresh, delicious Mexican munchies. Hope y'all like napolitos, chopped up tomato and onion in your corn tacos. There is other stuff there too to discover.

Why am I up so early? This is nuts!

Almost time to say goodbye to 2013. How many of you are afraid for what 2014 could likely bring?

My wife did not know that I installed a seat warmer on the passenger seat, so when we were out on Saturday I quietly switched it on and waited for the reaction. It soon came and she was delighted.

These work well if you can afford them. They're on my wish list.

I have a cheap thing that's worked 'ok' for quite a few years, but most of them, like mine, work on temperature as well as motion, so in the cold weather, if the vehicle is the same temp as the ambient temp, it might not detect enough motion and won't alert.

Yep, we have a gate and a key pad that also works off of a wireless remote. Mine is wired to power tho as I'm only 500 feet or so from a power source. Regardless of the power source tho, solar or hard wired, they all operate off the battery. The power source just charges it. I can get about 3 weeks of opening and closing before my battery finally dies. I love it tho. If I see a strange vehicle on the property I don't have to be all that concerned because if they didn't have a code, they couldn't have got in. I got mine from here: http://www.gatecrafters.com/product_..._875_4989.aspx

Either that or someone switched out your Cummins for a Detroit!

Today's thought:
The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed.

Thanks for RINSING and not washing the coffee pot Stan! It looses all its' character when it gets soaped.

TOB&F today please!

I did.


How do I get multiple answers like above to show separately? I can do it with multiple quote for multiple postings, but can't do it for a single posting like above?

chaikwa

Cut and paste the QUOTE headers and footers for each section of text you want to show separately. OR, if you don't want the members name in the quote and just want the text, just use the '[' and ']' brackets with the word 'quote' between them. The brackets at the end of the quote have a forward slash after the first bracket, thusly, '[/ Q U O T E ]', but leave no spaces between words and/or brackets. Clear as mud?

Hurry up and get in on the ground floor of this amazing investment opportunity!

A good security system with cameras available is from simply security the components work off cel tech and are good for about 400 ft. It's all wireless and if a hillbilly from WV can install it anybody can.

slevhansen

Yup, it´s almost impossible... naaa I got myself a little thing not unlike this one

Just have to be sure the seeds aren´t too wet or too dry, 7 to 9% Water and it´ll run just fine.
Gonna go get some fireworks, it´s that time off the year, and then I´ll get me one of those from chaikwas video, not sure what it does, but it sure sounds like fun

Morning yall. Weird it is Monday. Overcast day.

TG, claymores and punji sticks? Love your DW On the driveway security, you said what I was thinking, solar powered gate. From that power you ought to be able to get eyes and alarm. But just to ask, you sure 500ft of trench and burying a cable/communications tube all the way over there is out of the question??? I understand being burglarized. Once was enough and it still bothers me. I have my concerns about our houses, like how I can't ever see out front. The way they're building houses in the last 10-15 years you can ever see out to the front driveway, or street or even front yard. I don't like poor lines of sight and blind spots. Our current house is wired up for CCTV at the panel, and cameras are all over the exterior but no idea what we need as far as a receiver box or monitor to make it all work.

Slev, have fun with the fireworks, don't burn your fingers off, or eyebrows. Don't think we can shoot any of this year being smac dab in the middle of a gated community. Well, maybe I can. Just buy some mortar shells, set up a launch pad slightly angled so it fires the projectile over the lake (which is only about 30-50ft caddycorner from our yard) and BOOM! Launch one randomly throughout the evening hehehehe

Oh hey, what is everyone cooking up for NY's Eve?

Put a sign down there with a target drawn on it and then put 3 bullet holes in it...below that write "If you can read this YOU are in range!"

FiverBob

I like the one sign I saw - - - "Our security system is very noisy - - but don't worry, you will never hear it."...................

My favorite, "Trespassers Will Be Composted".
You could also set up self deploying traps. As long as you don't do any "serious injury" the cops won't bust you. It scares them off.
Stan, find it a little strange speaking Spanish again?

I was driving up a little dirt road in the backwoods of WV in my Jeep when I came across a sign that simply said "Danger Mines".....I backed down the hill and found another road to explore

Tallguy67

Lary - the scariest part about your story is that Scotty tells me it was your own yard. What did you do to tick off your wife so badly?

I woke up that day
