February BS Thread

Welcome visitors to the monthly Mississippi Chapter BS Thread... where we mostly discuss the vagaries of our weather.
If you are a MS Ford truck (any year, vintage) owner, please say hello & especially if you are interested in having the coveted chapter membership added to your FTE status.
If you're in a neighboring state/region or just like us, please feel free to join in & post.

We love projects. We love pictures of projects. If you know of a automotive event close by that may have slipped our notice, please tell us about it.
If you're out & about in the state, say where & when & we can do IRL for a cup of coffee or cool beverage. If you need advice/info/helping hand, speak up & we'll give it a shot.

This is my most unfavored month, no apologies.

Glad it's short cause' I can't get done with it quick enough.

Don't give a crap about ground hogs since we don't have them & weather changes like a certain folk's mind.

Be safe, stay warm & keep your head down when the wind spins in circles.

Wife tells me of meme with buck-toothed animal looking seriously at camera:

"Dammit Jim I'm a rodent, not a meteorologist"

Howdy David, seems like the guys have left you on your own...lol
Not into football but kind of hoping the Eagles win then Taylor can write a song...lol
Welded up my exhaust system this morning and will soon head back out there and bolt it back in place and figure out the hanger placement.
Waiting for a length of straight pipe to arrive to finish towards the back..

Hi John. If it weren't for you my good man...

Wound up watching the the game I guess out of morbid fascination.

Kinda' like watching my college teams' year.

Our false spring will be ending soon & I made no use of it while here.

A good week to all.

Good evening David, mounted the radiator in the truck today and will have to do a major modification to the fan shroud but have it all cut up and figured out. The one piece will be converted to a two piece plus some slicing and dicing...lol

Sounds good John. Glad you can make progress.

With my poor eyesight, your new avatar looks like Benedict Cumberbatch.

Morning David, I didn't get his name but wanted to show where I stand regarding the hostile language coming from your new chief. He's been drumming up a lot of hatred around the world..

Can't say what I think.

Don't want to hurt feelings.

Don't want to get thrown off site.

Welcome to the sunny south on a late may day.

For the next few hours at least.

Hope none of us get blown away.

Hey John, you do rodeo?

We just had the Dixie National & wondered if the Calgary Stampede was a thing for you.

Watching rodeo was a thing for me when younger.

Didn't ride/rope but had friends who did & enjoyed watching them. Haven't been in years.

We're bouncing back into the teens this week.

Hope everybody stays warm

I went once to the Morris Stampede in Manitoba . The Calgary Stampede would be a bigger show . I've never been that far west. I'd rather shoot the bull than ride one...lol

We've gone back to winter.

Waiting for another brief spring interlude.
