    They say opposites attract but I don't agree!!! JJW song.....

    Was attracted to an opposite once and was dumb enough to marry her! That was my first marriage and well, it didn't last too many years. The next one was a major control freak and even though that one lasted a LOT of years, it shouldn't have but now I have one that's more like me! Not just like...

    Older movies you watched lately.....?

    Scarface.....won't watch it again, that's for sure. Glad it was DVR'ed so it didn't take 4 hours to watch it at least and that's all I have to say good about it. Thought I had seen it years ago but don't remember seeing that mess years ago.

    Human remains found today in car at pipeline blowout about 2 miles miles from me with flame at least 300 feet high.

    Easy to see the flame from the front of my home. Heard the blowout and my lights went off for a few seconds. Odd thing is, there's a car parked right next to the rupture. Service vehicle that a worker was using to check on things? Usually a service tech would be in a truck. ABC13 Houston news...

    Tied the 'knot' on the 7th!

    Pics at 11!! :D There's a really good feeling about this girl and we make each other laugh. Both of us have too much experience in life with control freak spouses etc and know what to do to make things work. She's pretty easy going and so am I these days and doesn't display the usual phycology...

    Finally went to Tractor Supply a couple of days ago or so in search of a decent pouring gas can....

    and found a 2 gallon can for 25 bucks!! The wife said she didn't like that price so I'm fixing up one of mine for her to use. Looks like it's going to be garbage sale hunting real soon....but did find this at TS and she loves it! It's actually a chew toy for....whatever that wants to chew on...

    Gas can pour spouts?

    Anyone have a good remedy for these present pieces of crap?? I found what's called the Garage Boss that advertise a better spout but haven't seen or used one. https://www.tpgplastics.com/products And no, I'm not advertising for them but looking for something that doesn't require 3 arms and a leg...

    Hurricane Hype?

    Geez the local news is really tagging Beryl as a big ole nasty storm. It's not even 25% of what Ike was and I sure don't recall that one being hyped as bad as this little thing is. It does seem to have a bit more rain than Ike as Ike was a fairly dry storm but Ike filled up the whole Gulf of...

    Electrical issues on house current baffles me at times.....

    The latest is a metal chop saw that was working fine but 'hides' on the floor under a work bench. Got it out a few days ago and it wouldn't work after working fine a few months ago. After getting it out and on a work table it wouldn't turn on so started taking the handle apart to check for...

    Engagement ring from a pawnshop??? Pic now included....

    My GF and I had been out looking for a ring and well, nothing caught our eye so we laid off for a bit and a few weeks ago I mentioned going to the pawn shop down the road and just see what they had. I've bought a couple of guns and odds and ends from them in the past and they always treated me...

    Guess there really is a first time for everything......Chevy engine on my 'Mopar' engine stand in my shop!!! Got a question or two....

    Never thought it would happen and for sure not this late in life! At least it's one of the good ones....I think. It's a 327 with .030 over pop up pistons but so far I can't find a brand marking but haven't looked real hard yet. Anyways, are there any identifying numbers or markings on these...

    .22 caps....anyone use them?

    When my divorce started I sold my .22 bolt action rifle and all my .22's including a couple of nearly full boxes of caps and now I can't find any....locally or on line. I now have another bolt action .22 rifle and would like to find a source for the caps. Anyone else use them and know of a store...

    Anyone with experience in doing a bonded title in Texas?

    Time to move forward with my 'new' Dart. Have the original title to it and the guy that used to own it is long since leaving the earth and a bonded title is new ground for me.

    A pic (meme?) for the machinists on the board.....

    A co-worker sent this to me today......well, a retired co-worker that now builds guitars. Maybe I should have started doing something similar as I wouldn't have a shop full (a shop that's too small) of cars and big machines! LOL

    Air compressor will run with help but won't start by itself.......capacitor bad?

    Here's a pic of the motor....I'm guessing this is the start capacitor under the cover? There is a smaller cover and I'm guessing it's a run capacitor? The pic he sent shows two....one larger cover and the other is smaller but looks like the pic is too big to get it all in here This off of a...

    Watched Blazing Saddles for about the 8th time last night....

    And laughed even more than ever and especially so after my squeeze laughed her *** off after seeing it for the first time! It took us at least 3 and a half hours to watch it since she couldn't get it together and well, she had to go to the bathroom a couple of times because she couldn't hold it...

    Lowe's treated me well imo.....way better than HD ever did!

    A little over 20 years ago I let HD do some contract work here at my place and the contractor was a total ***. Moron from the start but HD 'protected' their contractor and pushed me aside as a 'chronic' complainer. I've been in that store very few times since and only when I couldn't find what I...

    50 and under members....who is y'all!?

    Lots of us here are 'older' but I know there are several here that are 50 and younger. Just wondering who all are in that age group and what brought you to Mopars.....? Hopefully there are many youngins that will keep the torch burning.

    Trimming chest hair by fire??

    Never heard of anyone doing this until recently. A buddy of mine that was a very hairy......well, have to call him an ahole because he was lol. Knew him for a long time and didn't know he was that hairy. Anyways, when the time came to get rid of the crop, he would take a bath with a good bit of...
