waiting for the race to come on the tube.. i seen a cool pic of marty robbins and his plymouth 4door he drove. at a local race track he drove at. he also drove 35 races in NASCAR. he drove a mercury cyclone. and changed the color scheme. the car is still purple and yellow. nascar never used a floater 3/4 ton rear diff and a safety hub on the rf of the car. back east thats all we ran. even back in the 70's. the middle 70 is when nascar mandated the window nets and the 5 link seat belts. before that we were using just a stock lap belt. as you see in my avatar there are no window nets.

okay, okay, enough, between the whining you guys are doing about the weather and then the braggin about sitting on patios - jeeze! I used to see my lawn, now it's burried under about 3 1/2 feet of snow, and the wind is blowing at 25 kms, making for good white out conditions. Tried to walk the dog this afternoon and landed on my *** 3x in the middle of the road! Actually had to hire a bobcat to clear out my drive so I could get in and out. I have had to continuosly shovel the deck/walkway, so it doesn't get too far ahead of me, and we are still getting snow! More for tomorrow too.

Oh no you wouldn't! My arms and shoulders and back are killing me, not to mention my butt now, lol. Also we can't go any where as the roads are in such terrible condition, plow trucks can't keep up with the snow and it's heavy wet stuff, not like what we usually get. travel advisory is to stay home! And you say I get all the fun!
