    No fuck chop... but clearly we don't have any other ladies on here that wrench other than the 1 who did post below me.

    In fact I highly doubt you wrench yourself.

    The whole idea is to get enough pictures of ladies who wrench or SO's of the guys on here where they are wrenching on their guys truck to make a calendar for 2010.

    Kinda like this:

    You can preview the calendar I put together for YT here...

    Yeah...because I wrench on bikes everyday, and have a college education from MMI.

    Don't take it personal...I just don't get the point of this thread.

    Hmmmm.......Fuck Chop?, I do declare. A wrench and a potty mouth. Cupid has done his job and that arrow has found it's mark. (blush)

    Sucks you have to explain things to some who claim to be college educated. He is often bitter. If he is offended by the likes of the ladies getting all "durrrrrrrrty" (rhymes with purrrrrrty), he can find pictures to his liking here too. I think Chris even has a video he can dim the lights to.

    I've said before in a previous thread. I was a Crew Chief on F-15s in the Air Force and a saying that is used in most of maintenance is "It takes a college education to break it, but a high school diploma to fix it."

    I don't think I ever heard Peter Brady spout out, "Fuck Chops and Applesauce."

    That's cool. The point of this thread is to get more ladies involved in a great sport, and then make a really cool calendar. A lot of women would be more interested in wheeling if they weren't so afraid of feeling stupid about the mechanics of all of it. And the only way to do that is not necessarily in a classroom (I have a college degree in Geomorphology and satellite imagery BTW) and that never taught me a thing about working on a truck. I just had to get out there and ask a lot of questions, and sometimes feel silly for the questions I asked. But after awhile I did get it. And Now I find as I moderate on other sites as well as post up on sites where I don't moderate that if I show other ladies I can do it, they feel more comfortable asking me how they can learn too. Hell I find that a lot of guys will PM me questions that they feel to silly to ask in front of a lot of other guys.

    For the record I call my friends Fuck Chop too ;)

    That hot Blond is named Mary. She was in a severe accident in December. Was out checking under the hood of her mazda at 3am on the side of a road when another driver fell asleep at the wheel and hit the back of her car at like 60 mph.

    A cop going the other way saw it happen and was able to turn around and with super human strength lift her car off of her which saved her life as she was suffocating.

    She suffered severe injuries, all cracked ribs, pelvis, femur, punctured lungs, ruptured spleen and pancreas and head trauma. She was in an induced coma for many weeks. She is finally getting ready to leave the hospital and has a long road of recovery ahead. But a lot of folks on different sites banded together and sent her a good chunk of change to cover expenses that insurance didn't cover.

    Mary will go on to keep on wrenching! HOW COOL IS THAT?

    Just playing devils advocate here...

    You accused him of not being able to work on his truck....
    He said he has a mechanics degree here:
    thereby proving he wrenches himself...

    that's all.. just some mis-communication... :D

    No calender for me......

    I'm not worthy of calender material. :p

    You'd be better off giving the Hooters girls some beer and having them pose underneath a truck with grease on their faces. :D

    I would hardly classify a certificate from MMI as a college degree. What you paid for most can get from a library and a $1500 craigslist find.

    If you do not get the point of the thread then don't post.

    Personally I think women that have the ability, confidence and desire to wrench are cool.
