"I'm now the proud owner of a brand new $1 machete. Needs some TLC and sharpening to get it up to speed"


i am going to see a video on this, i don't believe you. Sounds to good to be true

 

Just got back from a week of vacation up in Minnesota - the weather was picture perfect and was a welcome respite from the heat and humidity of Houston in August! Went to a couple of classic car shows, spent a day at the local amusement park, visited lots of my old haunts from when I was growing up back in the Midwest! Have plenty of work waiting for me now that I am back - pretty much booked out into mid-September looking at various jobs around the country.

 

happy Birthday Jim



​​​​​​

 

He’s still alive - I thought he keeled over a couple of years ago.....???

 

Hey! This ghost thing is pretty neat!

 

I tried to ban him from this life and he keeps resisting somehow

 

Wait till you use it to walk into the women’s locker room.....

 

What makes you think I haven’t already?

 

All you can do is look!! Like a dog chasing a car...if he catches it he can't drive it!!! Happy Birthday Jim.

Truck is ready just in case the candles get out of control!!!

My younger brother also has his birthday today...he's a spry 70.

 

Thanks guys. Never thought I would make this long.

 

Got the oil changed and a state inspection on the 2000 Expedition today. The lady at the lube place wants to buy it. It had 10,398 miles on it when I put it back in the garage. Had my 2014 150 inspected last week. It has just over 90,000 on it.

 

I’m going to have to check that thing out one of these days - very unusual for sure since most full-size SUV’s are purchased for heavy duty “family truckster” use! Probably won’t ever be worth a ton of money - but of course that’s what they used to say about station wagons and those have now become their own little niche in the collector car world!

 

When you come to check it out, bring money!

 

And a permission slip from my wife......
