60+ year old thread.

The old old are killing me, My mom in law shoots skeet with a dam 410. Never shot a gun till she was 90, now at 95 do not bet on her missing. Will cost you some $ ask me how i know!!!! Jim

 

My CEO is the same, she always comes up with do you just want it or do you really need it.. One of the Ga. boys we know is trying to put a 37 chev pick up body on a 82 chev pick up frame with a 454 in it. ... Im looking for a 50 - 57 chev wagon for a woody build. So far the ones I have seen are too much $ or more TLC then I want to put out...Its out there somewhere just have to keep looking...Jim

 

I hear ya Jim. You would be suprised at the number of times she says yes when I tell her I just want it.

 

yea, pretty amazing, and he still drives. I do realize that we're walking on pretty thin ice on this one.

maby we could hook him up with jims mother in law, that is if she's not already accounted for. she could help drink his homemade wine. that's also amazing that she shoots a shotgun, and is good at it. GO GIRL

wonder what sue will be doing when she's over 90 ?

 

afternoon gents... hope everyone had a good day.

Shooting skeet at 95 - well good for her!!!! and 98 shooting - good for him, too.

 

Morning All, Cold down here this morning 58, had to put on a jacketJim

 

Let the begin. It is 30 degrees here this morning.

 

that's a great morning temp.... It was frosty this am... had to scrape frost off my windows - although the sun helped melt some, too

Was maybe a degree or two warmer here.

Either of you guys know....I think my washer sprayed some grease on the last load of clothes I washed. It was just spots on a few items. Would that be an easy fix? Any ideas?

 

Did you wash any items with grease on them?

I would suggest a load of rags with a double dose of tide. If you still have grease then you will need to replace a shaft seal.

 

thanks Tom. No, no grease on the clothes. Was kind on thinking it was a seal Is that hard to do?

 

Never had to on any washers I have owned. Now days it is harder to find the part than to repair.

 

Well, guess I will start searching... although there MIGHT be some good deals on washing machines next weekend

 

That is true. Do your shopping on line and avoid the long lines. It is a lot easier to make the purchase at 12:00am in your PJ's in front of the computer than going to the store.

Well I am off to the food bank. I promised them 10 turkeys and delivered 6 on Wednesday. Taking the other 4 over this morning.

 

This is a really old thread I had no idea that tacomaworld.com was such an established website as to have such ancient, no wait, such superannuated discussions. Lets keep this antiquity alive!

 

OH OH another . they just can't wait their turn. hopefully they will get to where we're at. you know, been there-done that, and lived to tell about it.

maby we could nickname them "heva hovas" (a pa.dutch term)

cabelas is opening at 5am on the 25th. gifts to first 800 customers. think I'll stay in bed.

 

Get off the dam lawn hippie or pick up a rake and rake the leaves.

 

You can stay in the yard if you mow it..

I feel your pain Jim. I redid the kitchen about 20 years ago and will need to do it again in 5 years. Last time it was at 21K, good lord knows how much it will cost this time.

I hope you follow the wifes lead on what products to purchase.
