Just got in from the fireworks at the lake. Darn mosquitoes were horrible and since the kid is allergic to them we sat in the truck. I was at 18.1 mpg with a half tank left, after 2 hours idling with AC on and a hour in traffic it is now 13.6 mpg. It was still 99 degrees at 930. 105 when we left at 730

Pisses me off seeing all these lost dog post's of FB groups from last nights fireworks. If you can't bring your dog in for 1 night then you shouldn't have one.

Yea we had a real nice German Sheppard just walk in the front door the other morning, The wife opened the door and the dog walked right in like she owned the place, she had a ball playing with our other 3 dogs. Then someone lit off some fireworks and it was a totally different story.

We took a picture and put it on the light pole at the end of the street and posted on the FB lost dogs and the owner claimed the dog in about 3-4 hours. I don't think putting that dog inside would have made much difference, she opened the sliding glass door when the booms started. Just glad we found the owner.

I gave my dog some of his meds last night in prepartion for the fireworks. They didn't do any good, he jumped in my recliner with me and wouldn't let me get up. Normally that wouldn't be a problem but I needed another beer. I may have to get another dog to train to fetch me a beer for such occasions. Preferably from the neighbors house

Went for a drive out into the valley last night to pick up a stereo trim piece. That way I can mess one up Hydro-dipping it and still have the original if I don't like the look.

Your doesn't look to have many hours and miles on it since they are the original tires that came on it.

Hey, that one looks familiar! Yeah I love this thing already. I was actually looking for a 750 because I'm a big guy, but I couldn't pass this one up because it was already set up how I wanted it, and I bought it from someone I trust. After I test drove it I was sold. It's quite torquey, so the 500 is plenty!

Yesterday I spent the whole day in the garage with it. Took the whole thing apart and went through it top to bottom. It's in remarkably good condition, especially since it's definitely been put to use in some mud. The only thing I had to do was tighten a few bolts that had vibrated loose, replace the battery, and change the rear diff fluid because it looked like chocolate milk I already strapped the yeti to the back, so it's ready to roll!

I've had a customer for the last 10 years that seems like a nice guy just a little strange. He would come in every couple months for a new hard drive and reprogram. The computer never had the hard drive in it when I got it. Anyone that knows about computers knows a hard drive and reprogram is sort of expensive especially every couple months. Anyway saw the customer on front page news today. Umm yea, most probably know why.

Is it a automatic or foot shift? If Auto may want to change fluid also. Oh and a little tip if the engine is covered in mud stains use some of the Wesley's Bleach white tire cleaner with a scrub brush. It'll come out looking new.

500cc should be plenty for most. I wouldn't go under that for sure. I have a 300cc Honda *gutless but tough* then the others are 500, 700 and 800cc. I do have a 400cc Kawasaki Quad that'll rip pretty good with me on it. Still like my 500 Polaris quad, that thing will raise the tires in 3rd gear with my fat butt on it

Didn't specify yet, just got arrested today. I'm sure there will be more in a few days on the news site, all they said was preteen and sexual assault of a minor under 14 x3.

That makes me sick to hear about people like that. I have some excellent punishments in mind..........but I shouldn't post them here! Let's just say it would slow and painful.

If the track down that he was a customer of yours, you may get a visit. They can be pretty aggressive investigating those guys, as they should be.

Totally agree with you and sort of hope they do come for a visit. I have already pulled 5 years worth of reciepts with everything i did including serial numbers of the computer that he bought along with the hard drives etc.
If i had known that's what he was doing i wouldn't have done the work for him and would've called the police myself. There is no excuse for that nasty crap.

I honestly thought he was one of the many people downloading new movies from underground sites and selling them before they hit the shelves.

Either way i hope they keep his butt in jail and then to prison, with the DA here no one ever knows what they will do, Many people in for the same thing get a slap on the wrist, few years of probation and they are free. We have been the center of several national news stories because of the way the District attorney lets people off the hook








Then i have the regulars that come in for the virus removals because of the xxx websites.
