Good afternoon everyone!

Has anyone seen Mark on, he hasn't been in here yet and that worries me......

Jay- don't have any advice for ya, good luck with it though!

Ray- let us know how your pup does tomorrow.

Lisa- big red will be Troy's when I get another 7.3. He likes what I have done to the truck so far minus the sticker on the back window that Jim sent me and that I wont put a muffler on it. I had to take the writing off of the sticker though so he could drive it to work. He said something about it being okay if people think I took his truck but its not as cool if people think he took my truck. lol. I don't think anyone has ever sped up to see the chick driving the truck when I drive it, it must just be him or that I don't pay attention.

Brent- I hope you get some sleep soon, you are going to fall flat on your face if you don't.

i used to love the old 2 stroke detroit diesels. it was very easy to get them running backwards., then start grabbing gears
Sounds unanimous. Thanks for the confirmation.

I swear some of these *** clown do nothing but smoke weed in mom's basement 'cause they flunked outta the local liberal community college, and spend all day on line haitng those they could never be....

OK, just venting a bit, I'll be better in a few breaths....

Tom, how hard would it be to rebuild an old Jimmy 6-71 or similar? I've always thought it would be badass to have a built 2 stroke roaring under an old Ranger, with twin 6" stack throwin' flame!
I was not in the military but I have a great respect for all those that are/were. Thank you!

I have not seen Mark on either now that you mention it. Anyone know how to reach him by phone maybe?

Thanks Cris!

Hey George!

I am looking for Markadeck.

Edit: I just checked his profile and he was on this morning. At least he has been on lately even if he isn't coming in here.

I don't get all goffy on them, just get all warm and fuzzy feeling I am taking them for my headaches. Its been 9 weeks and 3 days........ I hope to hear back from the doc soon about all of my test results.

I don't usually eat in the morning so that is nothing new. I have been pretty bad the last 4 days or so, I don't think it has anything to do with the chocolates.....

When I broke my collar bone they gave me percocet or percodans... can't remember. I had 20 of them, and took 1/2 a pill twice, just to knock me out. Guess I'm too much the control freak to like being doped up! But when you have to sleep sitting up in an armchair, you've got to do something!!

Ugh! That would suck. I do not like to lose control either. Doesn't mean I never do, I just don't like it! lol
