    Schwan's Ice Cream man getting closed down

    Not sure how many people are familiar with this company. In rural WI, this was basically the ice cream man, drivers had routes through the country roads and had a truck full of ice creams, pizzas, chicken, whatever. Quality was generally high. Price was fair for quality, but not equally fair on...

    Television Shows

    I don't watch TV. I mean, there can be a program on specifically I might sit down for, but generally speaking I can't stand modern TV writing and the pace and topics are unimaginative and at this point repetitive between shows even. Thing is, I used to watch TV. I used to like some shows...

    Magnum engine and timing

    Recently I decided based on observation that like most old V8's, my 318 Magnum in the Dakota prefers not to consume ethanol. The exhaust is smoother, it responds better, runs better period. I can only basically get 91 or 93 octane with no ethanol in WI. probably because there are only two...

    When the tuner crowd meets Mopar

    Not mine Saw this as I was browsing. I couldn't look away. I know people rebuild cars but I think this guy is a bit crazy putting this money into(and trying to sell for) a salvage car. In WI that brand on the title never goes away. Would you do this...

    1990's

    I had to take my daughter in to work today. I gave her a ride in the 5 speed Dakota. I left the driveway and we noticed my wife in the big window waving. So I stopped and we waved. Then I left with a righteous 5800rpm burnout, which my daughter found amusing. (well, me too of course) On the...

    Finding the Other Guy's "repairs"
