other dog

Speaking of snapping turtles, I once ran a trotline across a small pond and caught these 2, and these eels. All I caught, but the one eel was the biggest i've ever seen. Put the ax there for size comparison, and it's a full size ax, not a hatchet. Date on the pictures was 1986.

I was seeing bone- that's some well done ribs!

dammit,I like this model even better-i'd better come in and browse around your lot.

So that's what that is-and I thought it was a finger!

How much do you want for her? Can I get anything for Jo if I trade her in?

He was. He was a hired gun. Dressed in fine clothes,sipped the fine wine,stayed in the fine hotel in San Francisco. His card read "have gun will travel-wire Paladin,San Francisco". But when someone hired him he dressed in all black and was bad-ass!

Chuck Norris doesn't do pushups-he pushes the earth away from him.

I don't know who it is,i've had it saved for a while.probably got it from onequickbeer.com

Oh, that's right- sorry, I was thinking Peterbilt thoughts. I had to get some of those big bass speakers and a 15,000 watt amplifier after the radio no longer got loud enough.

helmet

No. Put a straight pipe on it and turn the radio up real loud and you'll be fine.

Oh yes,she looks familiar-I like her!

never heard of Marie Breska-however,i'll google Marie and get back to you shortly.

good deal! (not the real Spot the wonder dog. This is a buffessional actor dog hired to portray Spot the wonder dog)

hmmmm...I can help you-when you reply just click on the smiley face at the top That shows all the emoticons,then just click on whichever one you want.

Oh yeah,The Rifleman, Lucas McCain- forgot about that,it's a good one-liked it when I was a kid and still like it! I used to like "Palidin-Have Gun Will Travel" too,wish they'd rerun that.

Wonder what's up with all these dead snapping turtles i've seen in the road? I've seen a few over the years, but just this year I must have seen a dozen! I don't mean terrapins, but big snapping turtles that live in the water-saw 2 this week, one was probably the biggest i've ever seen, dead on the shoulder of the interstate and far from any water. Finally got a good drive by of this B-model on rt.422 in Pa,somewhere between Butler and Kittanning. This is also on rt. 422-the picture doesn't reflect nearly how steep this hill is! This is a 45,000+ lb. single coil I loaded in Sharon,Pa. Friday. It's going to Emporia,Va. Wide load I saw on I-76 in Ohio,between Akron and Youngstown Friday. Took up pretty much both lanes of the interstate. Cooking stuff can be very dangerous! I hit my thumb with the ax while chopping a piece of oak wood to smoke some ribs last weekend-barely managed to hit the ax brakes before I chopped my thumb off. Speaking of cooking stuff,i'm cooking these ribs now-been slow cooking them over charcoal and wood, then I wrapped them and smothered them with Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce and put them over direct heat. When the bones pull loose easily they're done, so as you can see it won't be long now! Back of my trailer Tom loading a steerable dolly on a PGT truck at the shop Loaded! Token hot babe,for no particular reason except hot babes are always good-

don't worry,i'll chek yer spelling fer ya,i'm alsmost like Rob,borderline genious, except he's not borderline....hmmmm-yer fine,evrythings right!

Yeah, people can do most anything with a phone now that you can do on a computer. Fortunately (?) for me, all I know how to do is call people, which some people probably wish I didn't know how to do, and answer it when it rings. My ring tone is the "Peter Gunn" theme by Emerson,Lake,and Palmer though so that's pretty cool! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUcU2ip3nF8&feature=fvwrel

I didn't know that-I still watch Gunsmoke and Bonanza reruns.

That might be Shawna, I don't know. The only name I remember is a Charlie Baker,I think anyway-I know it was a Baker, whether he was kin to Buck and Buddy I have no idea. I also remember they had a terrible time trying to keep steer tires from blowing out, and the series didn't last very long at all. Ther's several youtube videos of big truck races-

Found this old picture in my race album. This was taken at Rockingham, N.C. sometime in the '80s. They used to have "big rig races" then, but they decided the trucks tore the tracks up too bad and they stopped. I remember a lot of truck racers ran old Sterling trucks when they could find them. This was not taken at a truck race, it just ran an exhibition lap before a regular NASCAR race.

You and Rowdy might be on to something. I drove those Transtars and F-models for years and never had AC and it didn't bother me. But I could stay in the hayfield all day too, once upon a time. Now I can't stand the heat, and being in air conditioned comfort probably makes it worse when I do have to be out in the heat. I told Jeff before "if the AC quits, tha' motor might as well be blowed up, cuz I cain't drive it".

Great pictures Randy, reminds me of my younger days- I cut a little pulpwood myself when I was still in high school, with a borrowed Ford F-600. That's hard work! Seemed like everybody and their brother had an old 2 ton truck, or a 1 ton if they were a 1 or 2 man operation, and cut pulpwood then. That's when the woodyards bought 5' billets and you could cut and load it by hand, all the equipment you really needed was a truck and a Homelite XL-12.
