Correction. The vehicle was not stolen, the wheels were stolen off of it. don't know what I was thinking. However, walking outside to see my car up on blocks and its wheels missing was bad enough, can't even imagine walking outside to see the whole vehicle gone.

Yea , we live in-between two major theft city's Stockton and Methdesto, we get Our fair shair of riff raff punks .Due to the cost of Ammo a warning shot will NOT happen Oh and the BIG Dog love's it when People run Woof

 

They may be two major theft cities, but Fresno still holds the number one spot for vehicle thefts per capita in the US, even though Miami is number 1 nationwide, they have a lot more people in their city. One reason I will not buy a Mustang here is because it seems to rank right up there with the Honda Accord as far preferred cars to take. Especially the late 80's early 90's Mustangs. (and interestingly enough, the car I owned that had the wheels stolen from was an 85 Mustang).

Happy thirsty Thursday Nor Cal and friends. Hope everyone has a safe and dry one.

Jim

 

TGIF Nor Cal FTE and friends. Hope everyone has a great day and a wet tomorrow. We need the rain!

Jim

 

Came home yesterday now sitting here reading FTE with a lil Irish coffee. Rain sounds good outside. Check this, driving away from jobsite I hear a dink and thud, look back and see my spare tire sitting on road. Got lucky as can`t imagine that falling off on fwy and killing someone.
Have a nice wet weekend,,,

 

Still wet here, although the rain has slowed down to a drizzle. Still good to look outside and see everything wet.

Went to Americas Tire to actually get a receipt for rebate and mentioned to dude that tire falling off and he offered to pay half for parts and install. Probaly about 250 when all said and done. What do you guys think? I wasnt looking for anything

 

Sounds like a good deal to me.

Jim

 

Yea you were , I like Americas Tire , they treated me good over the years. I just wished they still carried the Uniroyal tiger paw those tires are just now coming off the 92 chevy ( oops) since 04 well Mostly rotting off but hey

 

Actually Scott no I wasnt

 

Good afternoon to all...hope your weekend is restful.

 

Kidden Bud, Most tire shops will take care of any Issues , One time had a shop get there socket stuck in my chevy rim the guy beat the hell out of my rim trying to retrieve his socket, Nothing like 32 oz hammer marks on a nice blade wheel they replaced it . Just got done Chasing Cows again, Grandson went out to ride the Horses and left the gate open , My Doctor said I need more exercise I was thinking a the tread mill side and not the sprint cow chasing Cardio. Have a great week gents

 

Well, I had a lousy day today. On the way to church this morning as I was getting ready to exit the bus, something on the back of the chair caught something on the bus, and rendered my chair unusable. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the plugs in the back to no avail, and had to resort to pushing the chair off the bus (the bus driver did most the pushing), and calling a friend with a pickup truck to come get me and take me back to the apartment. My roommate tried to fix it, but was unable to, and now it is in pieces in my room.

So, I will be making some calls tomorrow to see if I can get some money from Westcare or the VA to either fix this one, or get me another one. In the meantime I am stranded since I cannot walk the distance to the nearest bus stop. And to top it off, tomorrow we have to be out of the apartments for a minimum of 4 hours while the complex is sprayed for roaches. When it rains it pours eh?

Sucks Jim, hopefully it turns around for you
