Good morning guys!!

Looks like it has been busy in here the last couple of days. I will have to go back and catch up.

Well I got the truck out and covered it in salt going to Sioux Falls and back but still no snow here so I might as well wash it and stick it back in the shed. Haha Not much planned here for the day other than washing the truck and maybe do a little work in the basement.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Did brakes on my escort wagon last week. Around $300 for new drums, disks, pads, front calipers and rear drum hardware kit. Metal on metal doesn't sound very good but all better now.

Its good and bad. Helps with words not sure of spelling and saves typing whole words but sucks with doing slang or not paying attention to what word it is guessing you want. This phone will even guess what words you want next based off previous sentences. So that is kind of cool.

Its a Motorola bionic. I had a first generation Motorola DROID for almost two years before upgrading to this one. My biggest complaint with that one was internal memory was way too small. But tough little bugger

Hello Minn. Stopped to visit y'all with a request for a buddy. He's an auto transporter & collects lic. plates. Last year he decided to try to get a neighbor boy (special needs/autistic) a collection of his own. Boy has always liked my buddy's collection. List at the bottom is what he needs to finish the collection. Hope y'all can help with this. ANY & ALL plates are welcome, he says the boy likes getting any plates regardless of where they come from. He will gladly reimburse postage if you need. Just drop a note in with the plates & include your name & address. P.M. me for his address & thanks to



The states I need are : AK, CT, DC, ID, IA, KS, KY, LA, MT, NC, ND, OR, SC, SD, VT, WI, & WY. Canadian plates (and other countries) plates are welcome, too.
