There will never be another "Monroe" Glad to see it going again though, Monroe would want to see the legacy continue I know

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

I'm still not so sure he was kidnapped. He has a wild streak in him, as seen when he was with me. I'm not so sure he didn't use the "little girlie" visit as way to divert suspicion of the fact that he just plain ran off! He's a full grow cock when it comes to gals. He was acting up every time one walked past, and when the stopped in he'd do all he could to hold them there. I overheard him talking about a chick he met down in NC. I dunno, but that's my gut feeling on this whole thing. I'd like tto think those girls wouldn't do such a thing. Could be wrong for a second time in my life, though

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Ok thought about it this weekend. I talked to my honey about this and we decided it would be great if I took care of some things IRL that I have been putting off, which will have me spending a lot less time here and on the HAMB.

So this is what Ill do. I will call in Monroe's identical twin brother with the same name. I will ship him and all the current paper work to whoever wants to take over. I will also give that person access to Monroe's Gmail account. And I will emancipate Monroe so he will be his own free chicken to do as he wishes (as long as whoever steps up says its ok lol).

I can think of a couple of fellas that are up to the task. I will take the responsibility of picking a person if multi people step up.

This is actually a pretty fun thing as long as there is plenty of participation, not just a bunch of lurkers. It really does take some time and ingenuity for the folks that have visit. And if people just lurk and enjoy, it does take the wind out of the people that are working hard to post great pictures. So if we get going again remember to post your comments for the people that are posting up all the great pics. Especially for the kids that play along ... They love the recognition even more!

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Awe hell, I guess I've been caught. I'm a Lurker, I s'pose. I could take Monroe for a few days sometime, hell I work @ a parts store so I'm sure he could get into all sorts of stuff. I know my daughter would get a kick out of it too, as she is learning to drive. Maybe he could give her so.e pointers.

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Got your PM 68 Crackerbox. I just got home from my third trip to the dump in two days. Did a quick check and tracking says Monday. Box is ready to go, just gotta pack up Monroe II when he gets here. So probably go out sometime Tuesday.

Again, thanks for taking charge of this. People seem to be more aware of how it works so hopefully it will super smooth for ya.

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Called on this truck and the guy said he's been trying to sell it but some renegade chicken keeps running every one off. Acts like he owns the truck. Maybe Monroe wasn't kidnapped by children but he left us for a older truck in Monroe.

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Just checked to make sure its all good. Supposed to arrive today. They have been putting in new water mains on our road for the last month and a half, big pain for us here, dug up, dirty, and at times we cant even use the road and have to park out back.

But today and tomorrow they are finally going to put the new paving in, I hope that doesn't impeded delivery. Ill have to keep an eye on the back yard to make sure he doesn't just get tossed over the fence lol!

Re: Son of Trucks are for Chickens ... Its on!

Ok our road is all paved, we got a pile of mail due to the road being closed and the mailman couldn't get through, we had to park out back and our neighbors had to use our yard to park too. Things have changed up again, but its a good thing ... really.

Monroe will be heading to his new handlers house tomorrow. Sorry just wont have time to stop at the post office today, but I have tomorrow off.
