I just really love the sound of the old 2 cylinders. That old A we had just wouldn't die.

I'd give it a fair split.

Even better is when you do open a door and the woman walks through with no "thank you" - think I want to stick around and be treated like your doorman? ummmm... NO.

I can fix a vehicle, bring home an 8pt buck with my recurve, pull a salmon out of the lake, and hide a .380 while wearing a dress... When a man respects me for doing that, AND still opens the door, pulls out my chair, and stands when I enter or leave a room... then he's worthy of me. Because even tho I can do just about anything, it's those little things that make me feel like a lady... and I respect those kind of men.
So depressing that you live so far away...

That is exactly my point. That is why I said it is mostly women's fault. Because that type of biotch is going to do it over and over and eventually the guys gonna give up, or be too afraid to do it for the next woman.

Even better is when you do open a door and the woman walks through with no "thank you" - think I want to stick around and be treated like your doorman? ummmm... NO.
Mutual respect. There is no excuse for no manners. 'Thank you' never killed anyone, that I know of.

awww, come visit...

True. true. because then there would be no 'spice'

You'd have to teach me to hunt if I come visit. My dad wasn't in to that, so I never had the opportunity. I'm not squeamish at all though, so no worries there! Have your leaves started to turn yet up there? Here in MD it's still green.

Absolutely. Turkey is in a couple weeks. It's goose season now. Duck and fox are coming up in Oct. and deer the first of Nov (unless you want to hunt with a bow, in which it starts any day now). c'mon up...

The leaves have started to turn. Its my favorite time of year.

I'd be up for all that you listed except for the fox. Turkey, deer, duck... no problem. Those populations (especially deer) are nuts, but that's because their natural predators were killed off. Mother Nature had a pretty decent balance for something like several million years.... ah well. I get in to this with my buddy John often enough, sorry for starting here..

We have a few weeks yet before things start turning, but then... gorgeous!! Hopefully my interview this Wednesday will go well and I'll start working again! Then I can start buying toys again!! I know it'll take a bit, but I can't wait to see your '42 all fixed up!
