I hate Credit cards, the only thing I hate more is being in debt. I only use one CC and its the one I use for gas. We pay that off each month, it actually saves me money. I carry very little cash so I don't spend it, and I only use the gas card for gas. Dave Ramsey was here in TN the last I heard an...

Ah yes the old stuff. I am more into redoing tools than trucks. I probably won't redo another truck but I do get tools to redo from time ot time. I have them from the 1800s to today. The old stuff from the 40s to late 50s just can't be beat. The last one I rebuilt was a Delta scroll saw from th 50s ...

One thing that may make it easier if a Ranger owner here would post a straight in shot of the emblem. Then you could stretch the photo to the size of the original plastic emblem. After you get it to the right size you could print it out on a plastic transperency film. Then you could get a new piece ...

Are the plastic pieces still in good shape? If so does it still have the silver ranger label in it? If so you may can reuse it. I used a silver model car paint to touch up once.I used a small model car paint brush to touch it up. You may want to try it out on a scrap piece of plexiglass then let it ...

Currently they build a Chevy crossover vehicle but not for long, it will be heading for Michigan soon. Senator Bob Corker cut the throuts of the workers at Spring Hill when he p...

I hate to see it go out. I live a little over an hour from there. Its also probably less than 45 minutes from nissan in Smyrna and maybe 1 1/2 hours from the new Volkswagon factory here as well. Like everywhere else that factory leaving will probably cause ripples in the local comunities here. I do ...

The green one at the top and the yellow one at the bottom are they Holden? The yellow looks to be around 53 maybe? The green one looks to be around 64 maybe? I wish these us auto companies would make something like these.

Mine was missing and all I had to fit the hole was a door switch for the light. It fit but you had to press in to not spray. I looked through a catalog and saw a starter switch for I think a 56 ford truck looked like it. So I ordered one locally and it fit perfect and made like the original, I bet t...

Drunk drivers

By no means am I encouraging driving drunk but I got a chuckle, the ending wasn't what I expected. A man stumbles out of a bar one night obviously drunk. He makes his way down the street knocking into everything in his path. A police officer watches him from a cruiser across the street. The man come...

In memoriam

With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week. Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully at age 93. The most traumatic part for his family ...

Flu Shot

Can this be moved to jokes? I forgot about that section. To avoid flu shots. Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruit and veggies. Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C. Get plenty of exercise because it builds your immune system. Walk for at least an hour a day, go for a swim, ...

For future reference on hummingbirds here is how to get them out. Take a straw broom and hold it up to where they can land on the straw. Then just walk outside slowly with it and let them go.

Re: Craigslist story

I tend to believe the Craigslist ad about the mugger is urban legend. Too detailed and well thought out and just too "much". On the the other hand a few years ago in Shreveport a guy tried to rob a beauty school. The ladies beat him up and held him for the cops. You know he is the "g...
