  1. Well I don't have wife or a old lady. So now what do I do. If I was a betting man. A std wont get me. A heart attack wont get me. I wont go out like Elvis. I don't do drugs. I see a track day some were killing me. Were I am on my warm up laps doing HWY speeds. Then a fuel or oil line will burst. Thus spraying oil or gas on the block. Sending the car up in flames. That is what will get me. Not a crash at 130 plus mph.
  2. I am way to busy to drink any more. Evey thing I do requires me to be sober any more. As for the Packers. I have seen them lose there first 4 games. The Brewers are choke artiest. I have only seen them make the playoffs twice in my life. So I am use to that. More then likely I will die in a car.
  3. The jokes on you. I don't drink that horrible swill. I also don't drink any other beer they make. I would rather deal with a hang over. Then deal with what bud causes to me. This would be me though. Right down to the Irish part.
  4. Redline you always seem to know what to say. If I die suddenly. I want you to tell my family how I died.
  5. That would be a total mess. I am not going to lie about that. Between dyslexia. ADD, and my spelling. He would be better off having a monkey edit it for him. No I am not kidding. Now if he would need some thing machined out of metal. That would be right up my alley.
  6. What good would that do. It will break down again in a few weeks. I kid man. I grew up with Harleys in my family. I don't have one yet. But I do intend to buy one one day. Harleys get a bad rap from mostly the AMF days. Today's EFI ones are just as good as the Jap bikes They might cost a bit more. But hold there value better. You or me will also be able to find parts for bikes in 40 years. Good luck finding parts for a 40 year old jap bike.
  7. If you want some thing that will take care of the Itch. Why not a kit car? Race car replicas has about 6-8 cars. They have some old style Porsche. Ferrari, GT40, a open wheel car, and what they call the SLC. That is what I would love to build in a few years. The SLC has been fitted with small 3 rotors all the way up to v-12 motors. Also Factory five has some good kit cars. They mostly have cobras, Daytonas, and a GTM super car. They even have a old 30 something ford coupe. RCR's cars are pretty munch a giant lego set. You don't need to source any thing other then a engine, transaxel, and wheels. The wheels are only if you don't want the factory ones. They use corvette lug pattern. So it is easy to find wheels. The bodies from RCR are gel coat also. So you don't have to paint them if you don't want to. The bodies come in like 12 different colors. While factory Five you have to source every thing. Most of there cars use ford parts. The GTM uses vette parts. They now have a car that uses a Subaru for a donor. I have heard many people spend over 100 hours on the Factory five bodies alone. Vs just a sand and buff job on the RCR bodies. RCR slc Rcr Razor Factory Five Gtm
  8. Raider I got one of the Flowers painted and welded up. I will post a pic of what it looks like welded and painted later today. So if you don't like the way I welded it. I will see if I can weld it a different way.
  9. I do think the man could make millions. If he wrote a autobiography. I like the Idea of a TV show better though.
  10. People are really crying about not getting a invite to a wedding. I try my hardest to get out of going to them.
  11. I think I have had his stuff. The packaging looks like jerky they had at my local Gander.
  12. Ok I will get it cut out this week or next week. Then I will weld and clean them up for you. I will also primer them for you. So all you will have to do is paint them what ever color you want. Just pm me your address.
  13. I am not munch in to the AR class of guns. But that is one ugly gun.
  14. Well I can give you a rough idea of what they look like. http:// I made them out of 1/8 in steel with a laser. A kid in my laser class liked them so munch. He had me cut one out for his mom. I know I should go over to his place on mothers day. Then ask how she likes my gift. If you want one or two Raider. We could figure out some thing. So I could ship you down one. They are about 20 inches when welded together. Then about 3 1/2 wide from the tip of the leaf to the middle of the flower.
  15. Thanks for the names of them. I can eliminate the c-141 and c5. The C-141 is to long and narrow in the cargo area. The C5 is way to big. That is from looking at pictures on Google and what I recall. It could have been a Glboemaster also. According to Google. The Gen 3 Globemaster came out in 95. In 95 I was 10 July of that year. I know I was 11 because it was the summer between 5th and 6th grade. It was also around the time of the EAA Air show in Oshkosh WI. That happens every year. Well the Air show was about 2 hours SE of me. Like I said I watched it in till it headed south. The EAA show is were a lot of military plans. Get there Official public release. Like I said I don't recall munch. I also know the local airport could not support a plane of C130 or Globmaster size. I only know of like 5 air ports in the whole state that can handle planes of that size. One is in Oshkosh. What ever it was? I will say it was cool. My 11 year old pre teen mind was loving it. I bet a naked woman could not have distracted me. Even though it woke me up at like 7am.
  16. It could have been. It woke my 11 year old butt up. I watched it for like 10 minutes. Before it headed south. All I recall is the noise, the od color, and black U.S. Army painted on the side.
  17. That reminds me. I have to weld and paint my gifts this week. I made some roses out of steel for my grandmas. My mother will just get a call.
  18. When I was a kid. We had some big 2 or 4 jet engine Army cargo plane circle my neighbor hood. It could not have been munch above 1000 feet. Don't know why it was doing it. It never happened before or ever again.
  19. I don't know how quality they are. They are on the cheaper side. I could spend up to 100 bucks for just one. I am hoping they hold up for a while though. I also know about time savings. I borrowed a carbide end mill from a buddy. It took me 40 minutes to mill a pocket 1x5x.436 deep. Compared to high speed steel. High speed steel would have been a 2-4 hour process.
  20. I don't think that's a knee.
  21. This is what my next items to buy will be. http:// Yes that is over a 100 bucks. For what looks like some drills. They are far from drills. I won't go in to that. At the end of the day. They will save me around 8-10 hours of machining over high speed steel.
  22. I grabbed my muskie rig for my dog. A 95lb lb rot lab mix. I should have been using deep sea gear. He never ran with it though. He would always bring his toy back.
  23. They might not be new. I bet he could find a truck and trailer some were for 85k.
  24. I always like things like this. Then I see how munch he spent. For 85k he could own a real tuck and trailer.
  25. Cubs and Brewers are out if it come June. Other then that. I have nothing.
