  1. Check this out. Jason Riley is a black commentator that frequently is featured on WSJ Opinion Page. Guy makes a lot of sense riley wsj 6_17_20 2nd 3.pdf
  2. NICE! I guess the challenge now is to make sure all areas of your floor are solid. was at a friends shop the other day an d he put a new outdoor post lift in. so I was asking him about what he had for footings and he rattled off what he did then says.."follow me". we go in shop and he starts banging concrete floor with a heavy bar around an existing lift and it has a very hollow sound. "Rats" he said. tunneling!
  3. thx Kevin

  5. Here you go..Candace Owens says what few are willing to say-or face up to the reality of what is going on. You would think Floyd George was Martin Luther King if you watched any of the "theater" today. And when you watch this, note how many times she concedes the cop that started this deserves everything he gets thrown at him. But she bores in on the bullshit we have had shoved down our throats-in particular by all the political hacks. I feel sorry for all the responsible blacks who have to sit back and listen to the Al Sharptons of the world.
  6. Wow- now I totally understand. 🤪
  7. How true. I recall a tag line they used...."GMC-the truck people from General Motors". So now what have they done as they get back into class 4-6? They kick the GMC dealers aside and give the franchise to Chevy dealers! If I were a GMC dealer I think I would be organizing a suit against GM.
  8. Jim did you read the stats I posted? Says it all in terms of black on black violence as well as the percentage of crimes committed by 13% of the population. But no one wants to talk about that.
  9. I don't think "layers of management" create oppressive culture. Too many layers just makes everything slower to "trickle down"-but eventually it gets to the lower levels. Do you think the black chief in Minneapolis was "oppressive"? Seemed like a well spoken guy to me but he obviously did not get the message to his troops. Or he was totally intimidated by the union. This dumb ass cop had almost 20 yrs and his share of complaints filed against him- and he survived. No doubt, what you could get away with 20 years ago is one thing, but in this age of dash cams, everyone in the public armed with a camera, how can anyone today think they can get away with crap like what took place. The guy was cuffed! Do you really think certain departments should be disbanded? Or maybe they just need better training as to just what is acceptable and what is out of bounds? Now we have the bullshit going on in Buffalo. As the PD line advanced, this guy gets in front of them and yes the cop gives him a bit of a push to keep the line moving. Unfortunately the guy is a senior and he trips over his own feet. So here we go. An unfortunate incident but now the politicians are jumping all over this starting with the governor.
  10. As we listen to the bullshit tonight about eliminating police departments all over the country read this from WSJ. We hear all the time about ...."conservatives don't believe in science"! Think the liberals believe is statistics???? Please readmyth police racisim 2 (1) (1).pdf
  11. Nice Jim-another one that has disappeared..then again 21 years ago!
  12. I believe it was NBC national news led off with a statement I think it was Sunday night..."nation reacts to years of racisim" ..or words to that effect. No doubt this cop was an idiot who should have been either kicked out or corrected years ago. The arrogant look on his face says it all IMO as he held this cuffed guy down. But having said that, we are back to "black lives matter". And what event started that? Ferguson Mo. and Mike Brown- an absolute POS who intimidated a little Asian shop owner about half his weight and then refused to pay for the goods he took. Amazing how this dirt bag gets glorified. I've been waiting for someone to come up with the most appropriate phrase...."Black FATHERS matter". But none of the pundits have the guts to say that. Read an interesting stat the other day. In 1950, 19.7% of black births were illegitimate. Fifty years later...73%! Saw a cartoon yesterday..."How to break up a Black lives matter protest". Bunch of dudes scattering like hell and a little boy is saying.."Are you my Dad?" Yes maybe an unfair statement but we know what the reality is. I look at all the attention my grandkids get and I say.."no wonder so many kids turn out to be worthless -applies to some white kids too, just a far lesser percentage- when there are no positive role models what do you expect.
  13. Thx Jim
  14. Bet you wish you had it now! But you were like me probably-got the bulldog bug!
  15. '65- When I bought it, the mechanical pump had been replaced with a little electric attached to frame rail. It finally crapped out and I was in process of hooking up a new one -about a 1-1/2" square cube by Purolator.- and that was last time I drove it-20 years ago. That new pump by the way must have crapped out in storage because ended up replacing it with a much bigger one. You are not first person to ask that- creature of habit I guess.😃
  16. Well guys, finally got fuel system cleaned out, new electric fuel pump, new carb and oh yes new air cleaner . F-ing mice had taken up residence in the old one and mouse piss is very corrosive. When it fired up today on old plugs/wires blew all kinds of crap out exhaust-mostly acorns. Mine has a 2" lift. My son's has a 3" lift plus a 1" body lift. Can't believe how good that 289 sounds after all these years.
  17. MT-Thx- makes sense-I imagine also helps with the fire danger if a lot of the highly combustible stuff gets some cover.
  18. Ok I give up...The Orange W'Star that is pulling that big skidder-what are those road "wheels" on the end of the skidder?
  19. JP Noonan has a few up here in NE
  20. Well I too was thinking some sort of heavy haul tractor and it was set up to pull the jeep (right term DW?) then again doesn't look heavy enough to be a heavy haul tractor.
  21. Wow-wonder where that 6 x 6 is going.
  22. HX's good looking but when they first came out I saw pix where they had an "egg crate" or "mesh" type grill. IMO thought it was much better looking than the vertical bars-kinda like old school when shutters alone were the "grill". No longer available?
  23. Like I said- I'm giving him 6 mos. We have no better choice. But if he doesn't stop alienating every independent-and a lot of Republicans we are screwed. My circle of pals? They are like most of the people on this site and its amazing as I see it-everyone likes the results and can put up with his bullshit and arrogance but fear he is throwing the election away.
  24. Do you think maybe we should start a petition to get Trump to STFU.....? Or maybe Hannity his no 1. booster should wake up to the fact we are going to end up with a left wing senile Biden in office for 6 mos before he ends up in the home and we have our first female president. Donald Trump picked Memorial Day to attack Rep. Conor Lamb (D-Pa.), a Marine Corps veteran, as an “American fraud” and “puppet for Crazy Nancy Pelosi” as the president endorsed the lawmaker’s rival on Monday. Trump goofed up the attack, referring to Conor Lamb as “Connor Lamm” as he pitched Republican candidate Sean Parnell in the election for Lamb’s Pennsylvania seat. Trump appeared to be unaware that Lamb, far from being Pelosi’s “puppet,” was one of only 15 Democrats in the House who did not vote for her to become speaker in 2017.
  25. Very Nice. I remember when Apgar was pioneering "super single" tires. I haven't seen an Apgar tanker on the road in a long time soI did a search. Looks like the company still exists but now very small..."7 trailers". Anyone have a clue?
