This guy!!!!!! Right HERE!!!!!!

No, he is thinking "Pillow." Taken at Macungie 2015, Saturday 6/20/2015 at 2:45pm.

FYI: you misspelled "Pterodactyl."

I asked him today if it was the 118th anniversary of his 18th bday.......He wasn't too amused but his Missus and daughter both got a kick out of it........ Happy Bday Mini-Mack Ron!!! I hope you had a great day surrounded by all of us morons your friends and family!!!

Last time I got one of these I strung the poor schmuck along for about 6 or 8 days asking him all kinds of questions. Just when I suspected that he thought he may have reeled me in, I asked him if he liked anal sex......When he replied no, I said "Thats too bad because I was just getting ready to tell your scamming ass to go f*ck yourself.

You dumbass. What happens at the Nunnery, STAYS at the Nunnery.

6/19/15: The body has been dropped onto the cab.

I'll be out Friday night around 5:30 or 6pm.......Staying overnight in mack69mikemannowak's command post.

I keep telling my neighbor kid this same thing every time he's out in the garage screwing off with his rice burner

GENTLEMEN, AND DOUG MANEY: I will not be able to make it to ogle at the boobs support the nuns in training on Thursday night. My Aunt, who I have not seen in 2+ years will be in town, and I will more than likely not see her again for another 2 years, unfortunately Thursday night is the only night I could make it happen. Please squeeze a butt say hello to the ladies for me. Tell them "Uncle Yardo" sends his love.

I concur. I wanted to go for the ISX instead of the ISL but the upcharge would have put us way over budget.

Early speculation had this tropical storm parking itself over the mid-atlantic region on Friday/Sat and dumping a whole lotta rain. Now I don't think they quite know whats happening. Meh.

See post #8. Roll-Ups.

Ken, the verbiage that Pa uses is something along the lines of "The vehicle may not be used for commerce in any way, shape or form."

OH MY YOU HAVE PICTURES OF THE ALLMIGHTY GLENSIDE WITH A DIRTY TRUCK!!!! OH THE HORROR!!!! Now the FBI, CIA and the MEN IN BLACK will be along shortly to waterboard you and then neuralize you.......

UPDATE 6/16/2015: The majority of the chassis is complete. Some of the valves and fittings have been installed onto the pump. The chassis has been moved over into the body plant. The framework of the body has been assembled, and will be dropped onto the chassis very soon. Final Inspection is tentatively scheduled for July 22/23. Delivery early August.

One Pennsylvanian to another: The truck and trailer MUST be licensed, registered and insured** as antiques, and they may NOT be used in commerce/for profit in any way. If properly licensed, registered and insured** as antiques, they are exempt from commercial vehicle regulations including the driver needing to possess a CDL. Many of the DOT Men, bears, local yokels and even private Tag Bureaus are not familiar with the legislation and Pa MV Codes regarding these regulations. I would first check with PENNDOT to see about tagging the trailer. If they are confused or unfamiliar, I would then check with a REPUTABLE private tag bureau. Then if all else fails, you may have to get your State Representative involved as I had to when I was trying to tag my firetruck as an antique truck (long fucking story but they wanted to first tag it as an emergency vehicle because it was a firetruck, could not understand the fact that it was a privately owned vehicle and no longer a municipal firetruck- then when they got that through their thick skulls, I was told it had to have a "Truck" plates and registration because it's GVWR was in excess of 26,001 lbs- true, if it were being used in commerce, which of course it is not. Additionally when it comes to DOT Checkpoints, scales and even being pulled over for a traffic violation, not having inspection stickers or god forbid being involved in an accident, many cops don't know or understand the Pa MVC regarding antiques. I carry copies of the pertinent sections in my glove box, attached to my registration, insurance certificate and a recent CAT Scale certificate. ** Your insurance may have specific requirements or limitations, you must read and understand your individual policy.

what was it......3? 4 years ago? I dragged out 4 or 5 guys......That guy with the Walter airplane thing yanked out a few guys and the guy with the GMC Astro wrecker was busy too.

Bring chains, I know a guy with an F.W.D. I can hook you up. Get it? Hook you up?? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!!

Pay attention to the upcoming weather, Lads. It seems that preliminary forecasts are showing this tropical depression that is coming northbound out of the Gulf of Mexico and across Texas, to be making a right hand turn and heading eastbound......And holding over the mid-Atlantic region just in time for the weekend. "Several Inches" of rain are forecast. This has been a public service message brought to you by F.W.D., Walter, Oshkosh, Marmon-Herrington, Kinedyne Towing Straps, Tulsa Chain and Towing Supply, Century Wreckers, and Jerr-Dan Wreckers.

Now there is discussion of this tropical depression in the Gulf of Mexico coming north up across Texas and then turning eastbound and affecting the mid-atlantic region just in time for the weekend....with "upwards of several inches of rain." "Mudcungie 2015?"

PRELIMINARY FORECAST FOR MACUNGIE: "scattered showers" on Thursday. Friday and Saturday, Sunny and temps in the mid to upper 80's and high humidity as usual.
