Making this old fart smile... Tucked away in the back of my shop..... '74 850 Dunstall Norton Commando, just add fuel, a battery, kick and go. Not as ready, but there is also a '75 T160 Triumph Trident. So yup, I am familiar with the sounds of which you speak!

Seems tonight I fit right in with the tone of this thread... In spite of the fact that we still have snow up to "here" today was sunny, 1st day above freezing since early Dec. The temp actually almost touched 50! So, pushing the seasons as I do, shorts and short sleeve shirt today, starting my tan for our California trip for Easter. After supper Stormy and Rosemarie decided we needed to head out for ice cream. You guys woulda been proud: pulled on my snowmobile boots to drive them. They said my hairy legs made for a poor Daisy Duke! BTW... not all but most of what we drive has a pentastar on the grill, even our GMC Topkick motor home is pushed by a Cummins out of a Ram pickup! Thankfully Croc (or is he officially Dundee now?) and his cams were nowhere to be seen....

Shane Be sure to give us some notice so we can have popcorn ready for the screening. One of life's little ironies that here we are trying to make the class clown smile! Just in case you missed it I posted a joke for you that someone said suited your teenage life.....

My First Condom I recall my first time with a condom. I was 14. I went in to buy a packet of condoms at nearby pharmacy. In those days it took a lot of guts to go in a store and ask for that kind of item because everyone in town knew me and there was no doubt the young lady (I think her name was Nola) knew what they were for. She was working as an assistant behind the counter, and she could see that I was really embarrassed by the whole procedure. She handed me the package and asked if I knew how to wear one. I honestly answered, 'No, not really.' So she unwrapped the package, took one out and slipped it over her thumb. She cautioned me to make sure it was on tight and secure I apparently still looked confused. So, she looked all around the store to see if it were empty. It was. 'Just a minute,' she said, and walked me into the back room, unbuttoned her blouse and removed it. She unhooked her bra and laid it aside. 'Do these excite you?' She asked. Well, I was so dumb-struck that all I could do was stand there with my mouth open and nod my head. She then said it was time to slip the condom on. As I was slipping it on, she dropped her skirt, removed her panties and lay down on a desk. 'Well, come on', she said, 'We don't have much time.' So I climbed on her. It was so wonderful that, unfortunately, I could no longer hold back and KAPOW, I was done within a few moments. She looked at me with a bit of a frown. 'Did you put that condom on?' she asked. I said, 'sure did,' and held up my thumb to show her. Then she beat the shit out of me....

Skip Bet ya scared the crap out a the guy in the Porta-Potti!

It's amazing, the anonymity of these forums hides the realities of the individuals. So true confession here....me thinks I fit this bunch at age 62, am almost average. Rosemarie on the other hand is mid 40s (can't be too exact can we? Ladies and age, scales...) And at this point in the winter who cares???

Not all days are gems Shane.... Perhaps the gods are showing their displeasure at your announcement of not joining in at NJMP?

Be careful Shane...seems someone is a little touchy about age references!

Decided to be a professional roadracer did you? Such is there lot...just like being married: a LOT of begging for the slim chance of a little fun on the weekend....

Ah, so the NY ladies are advertising online now.. 'bout time, must have been a rough winter with skimpy outfits in such winter weather!

Coffee is getting cold Croc....

Not personally but mother always had a big stash of 'em in the freezer. And we had one of the old round top small bottle Coke machines, the Cokes came in wooden cases.

No pics but I can recall shooting at each other with 4' bows and arrows with suction cups... as if that was a good idea of safety. This time of year we (primary school grades 1-8) would latch onto a bumper and slide home for lunch dragging our boots on the snow-covered roads. Poor kids today miss out on that with all the road salt used now!

You wouldn't notice Croc, you and Dundee have too much of the outback adventure streak in your blood! Nerves of steel and all that... BTW... SWMBO that is accompanying me to Jersey usually responds to Rosemarie...no garantee though. She's into tea, diet Pepsi and water as opposed to my coffee a day root beer. Just so ya know!

When you're checking Croc's termite home be sure to scroll down... Some very nice English candidates for membership here!

Why not you? Have to blame someone...I was 800 miles away when our car caught fire.

Sadly, that was true even before it was a holiday. And just for the record, it's no different here where we have more than 2 parties to choose from!

Seems we'll be spending Easter weekend in the LA area. Was looking for "must do" things... We are flying into Frisco early Thursday, touring down the coast for a surfing lesson for our almost 17 yr old daughter early Friday. Hopi ng to be in Thousand Oaks area later Friday, then open til Monday morning. The main purpose of the trip is to pick up a new f/g body from Meyers in Valley Centre Tuesday or Wednesday, then haul it over to meet up with some friends in Quartzsite who will haul it back to Canada for us. Will likely have to rent a pickup or small U-haul type truck for a one way rental, unless someone has a bright idea here.... So..looking for fun things. We made a similar trip previously, have seen Hearst Castle, but open to a wide range of touristy or car things. The Peterson was on our list but seems it is closed for reno. Anyone?

Oh...not sure which one but one of the silly Mayors leaned a little too close and got his ear bitten!

Croc... Seems nobody wants to put you out of your misery.... As I recall only 1 of the 6 noted furballs saw his shadow. However... seems the best accuracy of the bunch is less than 40%. Meanwhile the snow is falling, ice rain mixed in for good measure. We're expecting 10-15" by Tuesday.

I have a spare nose, just not sure of lineage. Any obvious identifiers? Where are you located?

Ya Mike/Croc...I bet it gives you goosebumps when those nice tsa folks snap their rubber gloves!

Seems everyone has had better results with uship than I did... I had an ad posted for 6 weeks for open or closed truck from Reno NV to Binghamton NY. If price were no object... 3 offers upwards of $3500...then I guess it was successful. Seemed a bit much to me... Went with a private broker, got an open car transport for $1000. OK til the trailer brakes caught fire just east of Chicago...6 vehicles and the trailer written off....our f/g dune buggy was right over the trailer axles, lower level, so was completely destroyed. The only good news was how quickly the truck's ins carrier was settling, had our check in hand in a week, plus kept the salvage.

Croc/Mike Did they have pneumatic tires when you were that young and knew it all???

Where's that toe tapping impatient emoticon? Seems Croc kidnapped him this morning too.....
