1958 F.W.D.

Deadwood was on the same channel- only ran two seasons and then got cancelled. Guess it wasnt all that great. LOL

Ahhhhhh Rowdy- finally someone else besides me who likes JUSTIFIED. As for the super bowl, the only reason I will have it on will be for Medium and Large who have been talking it up all week and really want to watch it. But I predict they'll last half of the first quarter and then walk away- which is when I fire up all of the DVR'd shows I have been saving precisely for tonight. Rowdy- did you like "DEADWOOD?" I think that was Timothy Olyphant's breakout roll. I really like him as an actor- I think he's way underrated.

Welcome to BMT. Here is your life preserver, your safety glasses, and a free rubber chicken.

Shuttle valve may have stuck. Give it a few smacks with a dead blow hammer. Might free it up enough to get it home, then I would exchange it for a reman unit.

Warn us next time, dammit!

Two PTO's on that MH????? One next to the seat and one at the right knee.....????????

Did not know this gentleman but sounds like I should have. RIP.

kscarbel- May I copy and post all of the images here in my FWD Facebook page??? And here is a picture of my toy.......

No one bit on my challenge........"WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH" Puckerbrush is also known as "Mill City", Nevada, MM151 on I-80. POPULATION 28; way out there in the middle of no where. To get there, you drive to the end of the planet earth, make a left and drive another thousand miles.The whole town runs, lives and works at the Burns Bros. Truck Stop there. WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH is the popular t-shirt that they sell....LOL....... Slpwlkr doesn't count- he was just there this past summer and tagged himself on Facebook....When I saw it I called him in a panic to tell him to grab me a t-shirt but he had just gotten back onto 80 and dropped the hammer.

For a small fee I can have a sudden onset of amnesia if I am questioned about it................

He's got that axe-murderer Ed Ackell appearance..............

You forgot Bird-In-Hand!!!!

The Wagon Wheel on 30 in Paradise burned down to the foundation about 2-3 years ago- took my boys out to the steam train with the intention of going there for lunch but had to make alternate plans...... And let's see if anyone knows what this means: "WHERE IN THE HELL IS PUCKERBRUSH?"

All older (and non-rebuilt) gasoline engines usually call for straight 30W non detergent.

Anyone remember The Wagon Wheel on 30 in Paradise Pa? When it was a real truckstop it was the WW, then it became the Rt 30 Family Restaurant and then a tourist trap called the Garden Gate Diner. Back when it was the WW I ate many a meal there when riding with my pop in his Mercedes or one of the two F-Model Tractors.

Ha. We were just talking about that the other night. We wound up putting $100 into each of the three boys bank accounts, used $100 for bills, and used the last $100 to go out to a nice dinner, just the two of us.

I forgot to add that since my battle axe lovely mother in law will be arriving in late May from Vegas and staying with us, I will most likely be borrowing a buddy's RV trailer and camping out at Macungie for two reasons- 1. I have always wanted to do it and 2. My battle axe lovely mother in law is such a bitch so lovely that I will probably need a break from her bitchiness loveliness for a few days.

Hahahahahahaha Thanks Mike!!! My wife and I enjoy helping out visitors, domestic and foreign- 90% of which are through my various fire service oriented clubs and other affiliations. Living 20 miles from Macungie makes it a no-brainer to help out others when needed. We were even pondering having a cookout at our house on Weds night this year for early arrivals, however as "EXTRA SMALL" is due on June 6 (most likely will arrive before that though) that idea got tossed out the window. Everyone has pretty much covered it with the exception of major forms of transportation if you are not driving in- If you are flying in, the Lehigh Valley Intnl Airport is the closest and easiest to use, I highly recommend it (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH QUEEN CITY AIRPORT IN ALLENTOWN.) Also remember that you are within easy driving distance from Philadelphia International and Newark NJ International Airports- they are about equal distance from Macungie. One is just as much of a pain in the ass as the other. If anyone needs transportation from any of the airports, please reach out to me and I will see what I can do to help, however with the impending birth spasm of the latest conehead, understand I offer no guarantees. And my wife always demands that I offer the folllowing: Plenty to do in the Lehigh Valley area for the ladies. She also says for this year if anyone wants to come to the house and help her babysit or clean, the invite is open. EXTRA SMALL will most likely make his/her first appearance at Macungie 2014. I also plan life around Macungie- I usually take at least Friday off from work if not Thursday too. The wife knows that NOTHING interferes with Macungie and that its "my weekend" to let my hair down. Heck she's even getting into it- she came out to the Friday cookout last year and had a blast and plans on coming this year. She also makes it a point to bring the men to the show on Saturday for a few hours because she knows its important to me and my father because it's a Fathers Day Weekend Tradition.I will be sure to loosen your drain plug when you are not watching.

That Borough of Steelton rig is part of the (MASSIVE!) Gary Mahon Family Collection. I might have some pix of it, lemme take a look........

No that wouldn't work very well, people would notice it as it rains oil down on them..........

I would have shown the kids and said "Hey guys, look- Chewbacca's a truck driver! He delivered our rock truck today!"

YES. THIS. Though the museum does get grants and support from Mack Trucks, I have been told that they do not receive any kind of monetary support for reproduction or shipping costs associated with archive requests. Please be sure to send them a check, it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Howd you do by the way without that nose out in front of you???? LOL

Some of the best Firefighters I have ever worked with are women! There is one in fact that I have been friends with since I was 16 years old, and would pull a line through the gates of hell with her any day of the week and twice on a Sunday. ECD as my esteemed colleague Mr. Mack says- don't let the simpleton backwoods hillbillies knock you down. Just ignore them and then show them who's boss.

Hey!!! Look!!! It warmed up!!!!
