You all talking about the snow...some of you get some serious snow! We got 15"-18" overnight last year and that was huge for us. The whole town pretty much shut down. I took the truck out to take my neighbor across town for his work, and there were only a few vehicles out on the road. We also got a lot of ice last year. Ice sucks.

I've not heard of it, but from the sounds of it, I don't think it's something I'll go out and try to find. LOL

I saw that too. Also found it odd that he closed an already closed thread. I think he was just making the point about no political talk here.

Oh, and Mark, your photo is completely gone. Link in Dan's quote as well as completely from your Photobucket account. My guess is that the photo was stored in your browser's cache (temporary files stored during browsing), so it was still showing up. Clearing the cache should make it go away for you.

Agreed. I like our little 7.3 family. Very close knit.

There are a lot of the 7.3 owners who don't venture into our OT threads at all. It's here if they want to participate.

I just got done watching Ironman for the first time- I guess I'm a bit behind the times LOL

Spending night #2 in the rental apartment while they finish fixing my flooded 1 story. We finally got State Farm to pony up for an actual dwelling because the first week and a half in a hotel with 2 adults, 2 kids a fighting, and a dumb dog (in a pear tree) was rubbin' us all pretty raw, at least now we got some breathing room. Damn I'm tired .... mongo goin 10-7 for the evening. Now ya'll don't stay up writing all night so it's easier to catch up on this thread!!

Here's are a few examples: YouTube - Jamey Johnson - In Color: Video

That truck could be a Ford..my dad had so many trucks. Come to think of it I know he had a Chevy during that time period but I think it was orange. He also had an International pickup truck that he converted into a log splitter...wish I had that truck. That green truck, yeah it might be a Ford.. I'm don't know the 70's trucks well enough to be able to tell you.
Can't wait. Sounds like good road trip music and I've been feeling like it's time for a road trip. Maybe make a run to Shreveport to gamble and party or on to Memphis to go and see Graceland. Your CD sounds like it would be perfect to take along...

This song always makes me wanna hit the road:

That's one of my favorites too, Travis. You can't go wrong with The Outlaw...


On a greyhound bus, Lord I'm traveling this morning
I'm going to Shreveport and on down to New Orleans
Been driving these highways, been doing things my way
It's been making me lonesome, on'ry and mean

You must be like me in regards to music. I don't listen to a whole lot of mainstream stuff. I like finding artists that are independents, doing their own thing. They're doing it because they love music, and not because of greed. Also, most of the indy's write their own music unlike most mainstreamers who are told what to record and how. I like music with soul...feel.

Sitting here watching videos and getting pumped for today's activity.

We are heading into Houston today to see the USAF Thunderbirds perform at Wings Over Houston.

I love being an American, and on days like this it's even better to be AMERICAN.

Check this out:
