Hey Pat, They do make some pretty cute kid movies anymore, this may carbon date me a little but I remember when Chitty Chitty Bang Bang came out unfortunately we didn't have the money to go see it at the theater so I figured some where along the line I would and sure enough 2 years ago I got to see it for the first time. It was still nice as far as the Tonka's go Jeff has those and need his permission before I break them out.........I know he wouldn't mind but they are his and he is supposed to back today as well. He is eagerly looking forward to seeing the grandson. Hope he feels the same in a week but for now we are doing great and know for sure my house is not set up for 3 year olds but so far I have been a half step behind scooping stuff up like majic markers and such.

 

I remember seeing Chitty Chitty bang bang on tv when I was little!

 

I really enjoy the Pixar movies and Wall-E is one of my favorites. Took the motor to Ft. Collins today. Looks like $255 for rings, bearings, gaskets, honing and one cam bearing. He also will assemble it for $200 so I think I will let them do it. I really don't have the time this weekend to assemble it, and it needs to be done this weekend.

 

jabber jabber jibber jabber.....

how is everyone is the great state of WHY-oming??????


I still want a three year old............

 

That was before my time...

Sounds reasonable, Miles... hope you get it going again soon!

 

Morning Wyoming...Happy Hump Day...Rise and Shine!!!

 

Good Morning Wyoming! Miles, hopefully that will get you set up to race!

 

Morning Ken. Morning Pat. It better get us set up to race. We definitely did not plan for this.

 

Morning Miles. Yeah, that sucks. It's not bad when you know you have to spend the money.

 

I guess we will spend the money fixing it instead of going to the first two races. Sort of a wash in the end.

 

I just realized it's been over a month since I kicked the cigarettes and chew... 5 weeks to be exact! One more reason to have another beer...

I am getting ready to do some minor mods to the V10... got a Banks Ram Air coming in, and a high-flow backyard cat converter this weekend. Also planning a catback exhaust, headers, custom tuning, and gear swap. All in chunks as I can afford it, of course. I need to get a pic posted of my rig pulling my toy hauler up South Pass one of these days...

 

Good Morning Wyoming!! Hey Scott, congrats on going 5 weeks man, you got it licked now! That V10 should rock after all those mods! Looking forward to the pic.

 

Good morning guys. That is great news Scott. I am still hanging in there, but the last couple have really sucked. Marching on for 12 weeks today.

 

Morning Miles. Don't give in man, it's not worth it!!

 

Good morning Miles, Pat, Scott, and the all others that come this way today. I understand that a major acomplishment has been made in staying away from nicotine for Scott and Miles....congrats to you both and anyone else that is making an effort to emprove themselves. I can understand where a person can weaken when things get tough but if one can resist and overcome it that will be a button that cannot be pushed again when the going gets tough.

It is said that one has to remain vigilent towards tobacco for a long time after they quit to get away from it but after just a 1-3\4 year away I have very little if no drive to pick up a can of Copenhagen. I had a little spell that realy wasn't much here a while back for a few moments when I wanted to chew again but in the next frame of mind I remembered how poor I felt at times and how much better I feel now just in health but also in mind as I know I' am not being controlled by a chemical.

I hang by the original thought I had a few years back that there would come a day when there will be no longer a legal way to get ahold of tobacco as well just judging by the way things are getting shut down in public. I thought I would like to have the choice to quit rather than have that choice made for me.

On a lighter note it is day 3 with my house being taken over by and alien that quickly become my 3 year old grandson. We are having fun and he is enjoying being here as do I. We are off today to go get some work done while it is not raining and will be challenged with how to keep him intertained and safe while I try to get things done but I will bet we will be fine. I feel like I understand my grandfather a little more now as well seeing as how this has come all the way to here. Who would have thought so many years ago when I followed my grandad that I would one day be that guy....it is neat.
