Went up to close the truck windows for the night and Molly Dawg hopped right in thinking we were going somewhere.

My fat bottomed girl. I'm not sure how long it is? 37 feet I think? But it's a bus. I've lived in smaller apartments. The 454 fires right up.

But I'm never going to try and parallel park it. Nope. Not going to happen.

Needs that big block up front to counterweight that rear end. You spin that girl hard from the center turn lane and that rear end is taking out two lanes of same direction traffic.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Picked up a slightly used tractor for my wife . I don’t cut grass lol . Old one had a major malfunction after 23 years stopped running and spun real fast on the starter . Took out the plug and the electrode was flat as a pancake . So she has a new toy . People were moving to Arizona so no mower needed just a tine rake for the rocks .

Why does Mrs. Cooper get such a big name tag? My office doesn’t even have a name tag.

Dodged a bullet on that one. Glad your old timers disease did not affect your sense of smell.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I just snagged this 1947 Snap On toolbox with a Craftsman top. The name Snap On has always cracked me up. It sounds like some sort of lesbian sexual device. But this is just a toolbox. Bummer.

Needs a paint job. What is up with all these people and the black primer???

Now I've got something else that needs a paint job.

And your knuckles went right into some engine sheet metal (which ain't funny) when a tool broke. I'm glad that I got most of my tools still made in the US.
