Septembers BS

Well here it is Sept. 7th already. Just got 2 bush cords of wood dumped in the driveway, the guy was even nice enough to stack it in the garage for me LMAO. Went for a job interview yesterday, they were offering $100,000 a year to start. Didn't get it tho, said i was too smart for the position. That's all I got for today. John

So I guess it pays better to be dumb?!
Then again, a dumb guy would have stacked his own wood

Well this post is NO BS. Took the old girl to work in Fergus this morning and on the way back at about Listowel the tranny wouldn't shift out of low gear. Pulled over, checked tranny fluid, it's OK. got back in drove everything fine, right? WRONG!!! Got to the 4way stop in Cranbrook NO go. I think the tranny went for a walk and it ain't coming back!!! There goes $3500 down the street. Geez the old girl and I just can't catch a break these days. She's at work cryin' her eyes out. That's the worst case senerio. Bustard Chrysler in Listowel is going to look at it late today or Monday. Guess what we got for a rental??? nope not a Ford nor a dodge. Well that's my cry for the rest of the month. John

Good morning! Well I went up to Burles creek yesterday for the big auto flee market, there were a couple dents for sale. One of which was a 79 350 with big lift and 44" swampers, was a little rough though. Anyways I found a ton of lights and lenses, ended up scoring a visor for $20 a performer 400 intake for $35 and a radio delete plate for a toonie not sur what year it's for but it says Ford on it, so whatever...
