I always did used to wish there was a way to display the number of chapter members instead of the post count or whatever in the regional chapter display.

I guess be happy your members show this much activety.

-Now, if they all built four by fours and hot rod trucks with the same level of energy- you would surely have something....

That ain't a dumb question though. Sometimes drumming up interest can take peculiar forms.

And it is cold everywhere! I skipped working on my ranger the last two weekends because I hate it when my fingers stick to anything metal.

In Memphis Tennessee tonight it is going down into the 'teens, but next week it will be up into the sixties again... Wierd weather, I know.

In the immortal words of my late mother in law: "I HATE THAT!"
(She hated most things anyway though - she lived in Frayser and worked for SEARS)

Well, George briefed most of it, but his daugters scared me for life, so I picked up smoking, well, I had to quit that, so to no pick up drinking, I'm doing this.

What about "MEANINGFUL THREADS"

That is a count also.

Spurious posts are useless, and take up bandwidth - it was what I worried about from the beginning.

KP came down on it once already, and POST WHORING really isn't the answer.

Even if it IS fun.....

Get busy getting into things that matter.

Funny is fun, what about truck questions and stuff?

I know - I too spin off into all kinds of BS, but too much BS is a bad thing.

Truck builds, where to get stuff, and all sorts of things like that. That is the heart and guts....

This is the off season, where can I pirate stuff at? For a freaking SONG!!!!

Let's face it - this is the slow season for wrecking yards. Anything you want is CHEAP now - to keep them busy! Isn't it?

Think about modifications you want to do. NOW is the time to get the parts.

NOBODY works on their wheels when it is this cold. The scrapyards haven't got much business.

IT'S DEAL TIME!

Want a nine inch rear?

A Sterling ten and a quarter?

The yards are hungry for bucks now.
