    I started building something similar once, in the late eighties. Used a bike that had front end damage and attached it to the front suspension of a small car, so two wheels in front and the bike wheel in back. It would burn the tire off easily without ever moving. Never finished it though. Some guy came along and had to have it, and had something I wanted in trade. I can't even remember what the trade was.

    Goodmorning. Taking the neighbor's cat to the vet this morning. Her husband is in the hospital and she is a basket case at this point. At 10 I have an eye doctor's appointment for a laser correction to one eye. Going to try and fit in a rack of ribs for dinner today. Yesterdays meal was delicious.

    Started reading your first sentence and part of the pic was showing. Was a bit concerned EXACTLY what had happened to the neighbor's cat.....That does look good though!

    Good morning all!

    My home town today. If anyone was in the Air Force you might have had a chance to be stationed in Minot, ND. I remember going to the airport a couple times as a 9-10 yr old to get my brother when he came back on leave. Some of the guys getting off the plane walking down the back ramp wondering if the plane landed in Siberia. Some had never seen snow.

    Yep, they call Chicago the windy city but as wind goes ND is the windy state. Last year our interstate road closure was a record because the wind blew what snow we got and blocked the underpasses they have to open them with those huge truck mounted snow blowers, while checking for stranded vehicles before.

    I’m kinda a weather geek, saw one time, Minot North Dakota, -41*, with 70 mph winds. Makes Michigan look like Florida.

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: We are not in Vietnam any longer chuck. ;)

    Pulle3d pork is really better for your health than some other meat choices. The rubs I use do not contain sugar and the BBQ sauce I make has no sugar. I do use salt, pepper and apple cider vinegar when pulling the pork.

    Had a few minutes before heading to the eye doctor so I thought I would pop in real quick.
