George, I quess I was a little confused as well but sort of felt resolved that I wasn't going to get the parts. As I already said, I am a master of confusion at times!

Shaun, I was thinking about some pics of you working on your truck on the side of the road.

Good evening NY, George, Steve, and Shaun!

I hope you weren't in the road again working on your truck Shaun?

That's just not a healthy place to be working on a vehicle.

It is not as bad as it used to be. Got a tiny bit better after the county shut the bar down that was at the end of the street. When that was open use to get at least 3 fences taken out on my street every week by a drunk.

Not to mention cars at the curb. Being you have a cell phone law, that should cut down on the unattentive drivers. Illinois gets that no cell phone law in February. It's about time.

We have it here but it is not enforced too heavily!

It is hard to enforce Rick. For us it was initially just text messaging and driving that was a secondary offense. Then that became a primary offense. Then the talking became a secondary and finally a primary. The one house on my street has had their fence replaced 9 or 10 times because of people hitting it.

I would much rather take my chances with a drunk than a woman with a cell phone. LOL

I get cut off by so many people on hands free devices or just flat out talking on the phone while holding it to their ear it isnt funny Rick. Makes me want to put air horns on the truck even more so I can pull up next to them at the next light while they are still on their phone and just lay on the horns.
