I'm blue.

At coffee this morning, a friend (friend has built several nice trucks) told me about a 70 SWB, 6 cyl, TOT. Guys father bought it new, new med. red paint, new seat, pile of LMC parts, needs light assembly. Friend says the truck is super nice and rust free. We called to set up an appointment to look at it, and a guy was loading it up.

Hell of it is, I was bush hogging less than two blocks from it yesterday afternoon, and didn't know it was there.

What is this story worth? Nothing. Just me whining.

The ability to speak several languages is an asset, but the ability to keep your mouth shut in any language is priceless.

We have our own "lingo" here in the hills.


Probably the most discussed if "you'ns". It's our version of "y'all".

The term "brush-hogging" is used here too, but that's understandable, because when "youns'" get tired of the cold and salt, you get on HWY 65 or 71 and head south, and this is where you end up.
