    I posted a "selfie" last week and so far, 3 members here had to go to the hospital, four guys had to wash their eyeballs with bleach, and 19 have filed for temporary restraining orders against me preventing me from posting any more "selfies."

    Hey DCR- Tell Mrs. DCR that "Extra Small" will most likely be available by Macungie for her to be able to hold for a while!!!! LOL!!!!! He/She should be making his/her appearance late May/early June.

    This may be heresy considering the fine foods that many of the mentioned establishments turn out, but has anyone ever been to the biggest McDonalds in the world- the one on I44 in Oklahoma that is built over the interstate??? I remember being in there when I was about 9 or 10 with my father.

    YES!!!! Plenty of room for campers as well, I think there may be a fee, I will check or Doug Maney can chime in. If you can, try to get to the dinner on Friday night, it is a lot of fun, good food and a great family atmosphere!!!

    ECD if you have a tent, there is a camping area at the show, and there are bathroom facilities- but no showers. There are plenty of reasonably-priced restaurants in the area, and Friday Night's "Family Dinner" is an offering of ATCA to all those in attendance with an RSVP. You are asked to bring some kind of side dish or dessert. I live about 20 miles from Macungie- if you need any info don't hesitate to hit me up.

    There's only one problem- the FWD never had one on it to begin with!!!!!!!

    Many of us in the (modern) fire service call them "wastes of money."

    Hey I have a buddy who has a 1946 Dodge firetruck. He's on the job FDNY, lives in Hicksville. He's had cancer on and off ever since 9-11. He's doing pretty good now though, is on light duty driving a staff chief. He wants to put an automatic into his toy. Truck has a 216. Any ideas off the top of your head of what kind of automatics he might be able to use? Would they mate to the bell housing or would he have to buy some kind of conversion plate or have one fabricated???? Is there anyone out on the Island that could do this work for him that will do quality work? Any other thoughts appreciated!!!!

    That was revenge for all you out there who dare to cast jokes of my beloved FWD being re-powered with a 2-stroke! My work here is done!

    The ONLY thing that is keeping me and the wife here in Pa. is my parents- who will not move. Believe me when I say (respectfully) that whoever kicks the bucket last (mom or dad....) the second we lower the casket into the ground, my wife will be on the real estate pages looking at properties in the Fayetteville/Wilmington NC areas.......!!!!!!!!

    Thank you for your family's supreme sacrifice to our country. And well done for taking on raising your grandson as if he were your own, although I doubt there is a soul here that would ever think otherwise of you.

    This is why approx. 1.5 million folks in the Philadelphia suburbs and southeastern Pa. lost power on Wednesday. Some are still not back online and may not see any juice until late tomorrow or Monday. Many power crews from as far away as Chicago, Canada, Alabama and Mississippi are in the area helping out..

    Are you sure it was a 671-T and not a natural??? Many of the drivelines in earlier Maxims were set up for 817G Waukeshas running at 3200 RPM's and when swapped out were done so with 617-N's.

    Carl I climbed an old wooden aerial one time just to be able to say "I did it." And the flex of that didn't come close to that of a Pirsch riveted/huck bolted aluminum stick.

    I've been a Firefighter for 25 years and have climbed many an aerial ladder- but there is not enough money on this planet to get me to climb a Pirsch ladder, especially one THAT old!!!! EFF THAT!!!! They need to be melted down and made into beer cans.
