Vacation time then Larry?

My sister just called to tell me her boyfriend? I guess thats what he is just bought a new car. He had some Volvo 2 door funny looking thing that he got in 09 and had less than 6000 miles on it, but thought he needed a newer one, so they went shopping and came home with a new a Mustang Shelby GT500 coupe,6 speed, lower gears, car cover the works I guess, blue with red stripes

she said it was only $53,000 :shock:

after the trade in :5SHOTS:

For that amount I would of been calling up AEV with a big order.
Oh well some live rent free others pay

I hear ya Tom. My coworker drive a 2010 RS/SS Camaro, she said only option it didn't come with was a sunroof.... oh the horror!!! :dizzy:

Granted she makes probably $70K per year and her husband is a VP of NCR so they have the mulla, can't knock her for it. They also own a 69 Convt Vette and 70 Convt Mustang.

Got new rubber and rear shocks on Firebird, man, rides soooo much better. Miss the lower/wider profile tires, but man those things rode harsh. I'll suck up the lack of looks for a better ride on a daily driver.

I can never own a fast car...(Mustang, Camero, Corvette etc...)

That's why I have the Jeep :lol:

It's slow and keeps me out of trouble.

I have an interview Monday :BANANA:

It's looking very promising too! :mrgreen:

Spent my morning working on the stupid pool pump :banghead:

Tore it apart because it would only hum and not pump :shock:

Found the shaft for the armature broken, they used PLASTIC :banghead:

! Glad I have the old pump, now I just have to spend my tomorrow morning going to the pool store for some adapter pieces for different size hoses :roll:

Funny ya all mention hot rods, this morning on my way home I was cruising at about 70 when I was passed by a blurr of a VIPER! Man I bet he was doing at least 100 when he almost peeled my doors off :twisted:

Funny thing was when I got off the freeway at my exit, there he sat at the light :ROTFL:

I gave him a :goink:

Then he must of been mad or just a mid life crisis fellow that took off with wheels a smokin and almost lost it in the turn :ROTFL:

When all that man hood wore off he realized he got the attention of the local boys sitting at the gas station and they stopped him with their lights :-)r

Gave him another :goink:

as I drove by and waved :-)r

We adopted a new doggie from the local rescue centre!

And she is true to the brand that made her famous :mrgreen:

HI ALL

I know that brand

Let me open that for ya, boss

And ofcourse she had something wrong (can't a guy get a break sometimes? :evil:

) with her hind knee and needed surgery..(auch..$$$$)
Purple haze....al in my brains..

She's getting better now, but the Vet said she needs to stay calm for 2 weeks to let it heal properly...yeah...ok..had her on drugs for a few days, but that's bad Mkay?

When I turned 40...I was driving my Renny...hell, it's only been a couple of weeks!

Tony...maybe it's not the dogs. Perhaps it is you! Maybe you should have your water checked...there could be something in it that causes dog maladies! :SOMBRERO:

So we went from rain rain every day to temps so hot I could fry an egg on my hood. Perhaps I'll be able to work on the jeep again someday...how long until fall?

KJWildman · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 4:34 am

JUST LOST MY JOB!!!!!!!!!!! :evil:

Only worked 24 hours this week anyway, but still ....... :furious:

4:30 in the morning! what a time to tell me! could've at least waited til the end of the shift at 7! :evil:

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 7:09 am

Man thats Su**s
How does one get fired in the middle of the night?
Isn't everyone ( higher ups) sleeping?

TAHOE · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 8:12 am

That bites the big one Larry. Seemed to be a honey of a job when you started. My best friend's son just lost his yesterday too, no work and he had only be on it for about 3 months.

They do stuff like that at my place. When they had big layoff 2 yrs ago, they shut the plant down, then sent everyone a next day FedEx letter to their house telling them they were terminated....pretty crappy!!! Once they were going to fire a guy, let him work his entire 12 hr shift, got some good production out, then took him to the office as he was heading tot he showers. Granted he desercved to be fired in this instance, but they want to make sure they got a final days work out of him.

When I turned 40, I was driving.....nope, nothing has changed in last 2 years.

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 11:49 am

well it seems gas prices are back up some,
so I think I'll have to go out and support the gas industries and drive about 800 miles or so this weekend! Should be fun!
Going to also do an educational class on installing a Frankenlift on the way possibly :wink:

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 1:03 pm

Dangit Larry, not again.

That truly does stink Larry but now you can forget about that place and concentrate on getting another job without worry about if your going to be working or not and having your sleep messed with. Good luck my friend and let me know if there is anything I can do for ya. :JEEPIN:

METCRD · **Posted:** Fri Jun 03, 2011 10:23 pm

Tony, my wife would approve of your new addition to the family. We have a miniature bully and she is white with the black nose as well. Is yours a full size or mini? Ours was a rescue as well.

I want a canoe........

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Sun Jun 05, 2011 7:31 am

I should bug Tom today. :lol:

... nah. I'll leave him alone.

Or maybe not...

Hey Tom!!!!!!!!

I'm getting a new amplifier today, one that should power my subwoofers to their full potential. Still got the keys to that house? :lol:

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Jun 05, 2011 9:36 pm

Back in Northwest Ohio again
Little run down to the southeast part of the state, up to Pittsburgh, then back across the top part of Ohio. Youngstown to Toledo ran 75mph and averaged 22.3 MPGs :BANANA:

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Sun Jun 05, 2011 9:45 pm

Got my subwoofers installed in the KK...finally. Had to change out a flat tire on the KJ too and decided what the heck, let's go ahead and put my old KK shocks on there. The stock shocks were dead with 83k on them. The wheel was already off. Why not?

Huge improvement. The axle doesn't bottom out anymore! No more thumping noise! Smooth ride!

And of course, work on multiple Jeeps just wouldn't be right without SEVERAL MOSQUITO BITES!!!!!!
