Yeah, Alltec is on south Campbell next to Harbor Freight. They're good guys to deal with. We got Tiff's laptop for $350 (ish) and it's not a cheapy, it's pretty fast and has a lot of features.

Hey RC! I just learned something interesting about that engine we pulled. If it's original to the truck, it's a 360, not a 390. Look for the vin stamp, if it's 88424, it's a 360. It has the wrong vin for a 390.

 

I've carried one a total of two years...if I got caught sneaking out without it. I hate carrying a cell phone. Wife has one, that's enough for me. Alan, that stimulant prolly won't calm you down much.

 

Actually Chip, the LACK of stimulant is what makes me angry. SO, ...the presence of stimulant makes me happier.

....Back me up here, Bob!

 

I havent heard anything about a new super-virus at all. And I'm an IT guy for a living!!

 

Good news, it aint that serious.

I can kind of understand since my wife requires caffeine to get over her intial cranky early in the morning. I just need it to motivate my tired self initially in the Am.

I have never been a coffee drinker even when I was in the Army, and still do not to this day drink the stuff. But Penny on the other hand needs a cup and a smoke before I 'll even dare talk to her. She is NOT a morning person without here coffee.

I can hit the ground running at 0400 or 0500 and go all day with a maybe lite lunch and promise of a big dinner. Since I quit Copenhagen cold turkey Sept 29, 2011 I have been tobacco free, but have really fought the urge to start back up over here working with these jackwagons.

But I do get a 8 oz "Rip it" energy drink out of the chow hall every once in a while, thats liquid go go fuel, I am like roger rabbit/taz on crack after 2 of them.

 

Scored a set of new tires for the 92 F250 for 400$. Thats the tire shop's cost, he said I can have em if I just pay for mount/balance. So i'll have a new set for around 450$!

 

Score!

Rich, I remember the Rip its. Never tried them. I have a phobia about energy drinks. Taurine is the main ingredient and it's also a darn good kidney inhibitor. If you're one of the select few with a reaction to it, it can instantly shut your kidneys down completely. I've talked to a few people that's happened to. I guess I never had the guts to see if I was one of the ones that would have a reaction.

On a side note, I bet that's not doing your stones any good.

 

Not me, I love some energy drinks. The Mtn Dew Amp's were my favorite until their latest change. Now I just go for monsters or rock stars, no more than a few a week as I drink a cup of coffee at work each morning.

 

Well I have been drinking them since Jan with no side affects....that I know of.

Not like 5 or 6 a day, just once in a while.....usually sweet tea for lunch and dinner.

I know I am for sure going to the doc as soon as I am home, these things are painful, real painful.

 

I'm going to say Chuck Norris needs to be worried about you. Real painful is an understatement.
