60+ year old thread.

You must keep your focus on the task at hand. For us old retirees would appreciate it if you would post pictures of said hotties so we can judge the degree of distraction you are experiencing.

 

yes, I have some seat time being a scrutineer, and I am willing to render my services, for free, but just this once, amirite @Sprig ??

 

Evening all:

Just saw where a bill is being introduced in Pa. that if passed would require front license plates. We have done just fine with the one rear plate for years, looks like someone just came up with another brilliant idea.

Finished up hedge trimming today, got 2 done yesterday and 3 today, the sweat was running both days! Also cut back a bunch of small branches with the hedge trimmer so I could see down the road further when I go to pull out of my driveway, I only need to do that on occasion.

 

Us older folk like a cold beverage sitting around on the porch. The "cooler" is just part of sitting on the "porch" enjoying life. So fill the cooler, grab a rocker and enjoy life on the porch

 

My state just stopped using a front plate.

Several decades ago my wife and I were traveling from Arkansas, which only issued one plate, through Utah, which required two plates. A local cop in Utah pulled us over because we had no front plate. Of course I told him that Arkansas didn't issue two plates... and he said, "You're in Utah now ,Son.", and he handed me a ticket. We ignored the ticket and had a nice trip, but we've always wondered if there is some kind of legality waiting for us if anyone looks up ancient infractions.

 

Hi Jack,
Based on your avatar can I assume you were in ASW in the distant past?

 

Well that was in 1977. So bell bottom jeans and poofy hair and of course bubble gum snap. And that was just the guys!!

 

We’re not proud, we’ll take 50 year old chic pics

 

Cop was way out of line, if the state where the vehicle is registered is legal, it’s legal, period. What are you supposed to do, buy a front plate at the border, asshat cop!

 

Ok...this is a useless rant...
But I just have to vent...

A friend told me of an app that let's you use your library card and check out digital versions of a book or magizine.
Great, d/l the app and found an interesting shooting magazine. There's only 1 prob, it's too small to read.
So I decide to upgrade my 10 year old tablet. I get the new tablet home and charge it up. Turn it on and start to set it up.
Wait...ya have to "sign in". It wants an email account...ok....now it wants a second device specific account and phone number. And it wants my birthdate and then it wants my precise location.

Well, that aint gonna happen. I just want to read a book or magazine or two, not marry your daughter...so I packed it back up and first thing tomorrow morning it goes back.
I think too many folks would just keep offering up personal info without thinking about just who the hell needs all that personal info, just to read a book?

I think most don't consider, once you give that info out, there's no getting it back.
