Popular Post Joey Mack Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2021 no sir. im here 15 years, in the center part of the county, they knock down large lots and build low income housing. it's becoming a slum,, im out in the county, but it's making its way to my house. there is a wealthy drug dealer that buys all the rundown houses near me and in Spencer, and houses his drug mules and girls... It's sad.. I hate not haveing any thing good to say. there is so much u.s. history that is being replaced with rainbow flags and BLM signs. They have removed all of the monuments, and are pushing all forms of reperations and sensitivity training... too bad they dont teach, work ethic and fatherhood... im sorry 3 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/65985-just-a-few-things/page/4/#findComment-469878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Faith and Granite Quarry are still quaint to a point. G.C. is growing but, more country than city..

Rob Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Salisbury NC? I upgraded some runway landing lights at the approach end of runway 20 there several years ago. From the north end looking south the flashers or strobe lights and strobes at each side of the pavement. I upgraded the antiquated equipment to a more modern style with radio remote control functions.

fjh Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 15 hours ago, Licensed to kill said: If it helps, I have no intention of getting the vaccine so I for one will certainly not be ahead of you. I get the age thing but who is the government to decide which works are "essential" which aren't?. It should start with the oldest that want it and work it's way down the the chronological ladder IMO PERIOD!!! Just another in the LONG list of things this government is doing to fracture the population into "us" and "them" by treating some people as more important that others based on their occupation. We have the most divisive and racist government I have ever seen in my 59 years. For you Americans, "welcome to my nightmare". Yup agree Not a big fan of these guys either TOTALLY agree with the fracture statement! however no middle ground to put in charge!! That Said ! It does make some sense for the people that interact with those whom are vulnerable to get it first as they could spread it to other old folks that don't! Guess that's the point ! and the fact the shit is in short supply don't help much! That being said My bitch is them coddling the fentanyl OD issue These people use this crap and now they want us to pay to keep them to! They should have let this be! Leave IT ALONE! Been going on for 10 years or more ! it would have solved itself by now! You USE you Loose ! People who Got Covid didn't have the choice . these fentanyl people do! Yet another opinion! 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/65985-just-a-few-things/page/4/#findComment-469889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Well another thought about the China virus... So as some know I am home sick with it. I have had some really bad days this week. My wife is lucky enough to work for a company that is paying here to stay home with me and get paid as well.. We are greatful, however, They are focusing so much on who is worthy of the vaccine, whether or not my wife takes it, she has not been offered an emercency dose because I am a carrier and I'm sick.... So what happens if she carries it to work in her system??? I dont know what else think... Just on my mind..

Rob Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) You know the old saying "When the cat's away"? Well carburetors get rebuilt on the kitchen counter around my place. This is a Zenith updraft from my portable air compressor with Continental B-427 engine and it had clogged jets and a stuck float. I should have snapped photos but after an all day soak in a methylene chloride bath, (I'm old school) it is sparking clean inside and I just rinsed it clean with hot water and put it back together: Now as far as the "Mice will play" part of that story, This guy didn't fare too well as I got his ass with poisoned peanut butter last evening: The Rotgut bastard is just about nine inches long too!
