A Soldiers Christmas T’was the night Before Christmas, he lived all alone, In a one bedroom house made of plaster and stone, I had come down the chimney with presents to give And to see just who in this home did live, I looked all about, a strange site did I see, No tinsel, no presents, not even a tree, No stockings by the mantle, Just boots filled with sand, On the wall hung pictures of far distance lands. With Medals and badges, Awards of all kinds, A sober thought came through my mind. For this house was different, it was dark and dreary, I had found the home of a soldier once I could see clearly I heard stories about them, I had to see more So I walked down the hall and pushed open the door. The solider lay sleeping, silent, alone, Curled up in this, His one bedroom home. The face was so gentle,, the room in such disorder Not how I pictured a United States Solider. Was this the War Hero of whom I’d just read? Curled up on a poncho, the floor for a bed? His head was clean shaven, his weathered face tan, I soon understood this was more than a man. I realized the families that I saw this night Owed they’re lives to these soldiers who were willing to fight. Soon round the world the children would play And grownups celebrate a bright Christmas day. They enjoyed freedom each month of the year, Because of these soldiers like the one lying here. I couldn’t help wonder how many lay alone On a cold Christmas Eve, in a land far from home. The very thought brought a tear to my eye Dropped to my knees and started to cry. The Soldier awakened and I hear a rough voice, “Santa don’t cry, this is my life my choice: I fight for freedom, I don’t ask for more My life is my god, my country my Corps.” The Solider rolled over and soon drifted to sleep I couldn’t control it I started to weep. I kept watch for hours. So silent and still And we both shivered from the cold nights chill. I took off my jacket, the one made of red, And I covered this Soldier from his toes to his head. And I put on his T-shirt of gray and black, With an eagle and an Army patch embroidered on back. And although it barely fit me, I began to swell with pride, And for a shining moment, I was United States Army deep inside. I didn’t want to leave on that cold dark night, This guardian of honor, so willing to fight. Then the Solider rolled over with a voice soft and pure, Whispered, "Carry on Santa, Christmas Day is Secure" One look at my watch and I knew he was right Merry Christmas my friend and to all a good night.

Good job, Freight! You look like a professional jammin those gears! Nice job on the video too!!

To the best of my knowledge, there were no 237's with tip turbines...300's and 300 plus's had them, but not the 237. BTW, welcome to the site! Glad to have ya aboard!

I used to have conversion kits available for the R Mod's, but the company closed and I haven't been able to find another source! If anyone knows where to get a copnversion kit, let me know! I can buy a bunch and help lower the cost!

A man calls his boss one morning and tells him that he is staying home because he is not feeling well. "What's the matter?" the Boss asks. "I have a bad case of anal glaucoma," he says in a weak voice. "What the hell is anal glaucoma?" "I can't see my ass coming into work."

They usually need cut down to fit a B hood, So I think it would be ok for an E hood, but you will need to trim it down...

Here are some pics from a masive crash we responded to yesterday! Glad to say that the driver is OK! The International isn't so lucky, though! The driver lost it on a sharp curve and flopped over head first into a reinforced embankment...his load of 7500 gallons of fresh milk spilled into a local creek...

Send it to me...I'll get it posted! wmsi@alltel.net

Good question, Rick...I have a customer doing the same thing here...I will be curious to see the answer! I can't find anything to match up...maybe it needs to be hand made!

December is already booked, but we are ready for 2006 entries! Email high quality digital pics to me at: wmsi@alltel.net Also include a brief story about you and your truck that we can post with the photos! Thanks and enjoy...

Looks great! I like the idea of putting an E6 in a B-Mod! I get calls almost every week about doing just that...maybe I can get you to write a How-To Article when your done! We could post it here on the forum!

From what I can gather, the truck sheared off the pole and rolled over...then the pole came down on the passenger side of the cab. The truck is at New Stanton Mack right now, but we may be getting it back here soon.

Here is a heck of a crash! 2004 Granite vs. telephone pole! The pole won...but the driver did walk away with only minor injuries...

Lookin Good! Can't wait to see her all finished up and no white stuff on the ground!

You can also click "Gallery" at the bottom of any users post to see his album...

Thanks for the number...you should add it to the member added links area so it doesn't get lost!

I just got my copy at the dealership...anyway for non-dealers to get a copy? It is a good catalog! Lottsa goddies!! I agree, Aus has an entire line of Macks that would probally sell like crazy here in the states! Including the Titan and the Superliner!

Happy Turkey Day! Right about now, I hope I never see another turkey dinner! [Ate toooo much!]

We actually ran out of them and the original vendor no longer wants to make them. I am working on new stainless steel reproductions from the same company that made the front name plates for us, but they said it is a difficult project because of the tapered, sloped ends...but I think we will have some in a few months! I tried a few other sources and no one has them...
