Hey it's
National Potato Chip Day is March 14th
Only in the USA can we have a day for everything :ROTFL:

Summary of Holiday...
National Potato Chip Day is the day we celebrate the thin and crispy snack, the
Potato Chip. The day occurs every March 14th.
Miscellaneous Info:
It is hard to believe that the world's most famous snack food began as a joke. Potato Chips were first made in 1853 while Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt was on vacation in New York. At one restaurant, he kept sending his fried potatoes back to the kitchen because he said they were "too thick". The chef, George Crum, decided that he would cut them into paper-thin slices, boil them in oil, fry them, and salt them as a joke to the Commodore. It backfired. They became an instant success and the restaurant was well known for them.

So is it true that these are great potato chips
Nothing is Better than Detroit's own Better Made Potato Chips and Snacks??
I don't buy chips so never heard of them

Not necessarily "big brick" most were pretty much the same size as we have today since it became a standard size many years ago. You can tell the older bricks though just from the look and feel. The way they were made back then also

Dishwasher? Don't need one for one person come on now :wink:

I use mine couple of times a month just to keep it running so when I sell it'll be working. Takes forever to get enough dishes to fill it up
Looks like you may have to run some more circuits to the rooms for more outlets etc
Whats the Electrical panel look like ?

But I hate washing dishes.

Regarding the electrical panel... um, lets just say it needed to go bye bye in 1987...

OK then,

you can get a dishwasher :wink:

Best thing on the electrical is to start from the outside, new meter base and everything to the inside. Throw up a new panel, and run everything new through it as you go , can also run the old panel through it and then as you upgrade each room do away with the old. I assume you can do that in your area. Thats how I always did it.
Hows the bricks and joints? Any spalling, cracked, or missing that you'll have to go in and re-tuck/replace ?

Wow utter bliss has warmed my soul :jester:

Yeppers had my house for a month to the day, running like a chicken with my head cut off not really being able to take a moment to really understand it's mine! Have the Jeep in the garage for the first time, changing oil and getting it ready for a short trip up to Michigan Sunday. I swear the Jeep is smiling :ROTFL:

First time ever in MY garage, nice and dry letting her blood drain over night. So nice to be able to bring it inside, tinker and tinker some more :pepper:

Also spent some time cleaning up my fathers chain saw my brother or one of his friends put the spankin to :evil:

Took it apart, cleaned it all out, dumped the old fuel, added fresh and a few tugs later it's running ok. Not sure if the neighbors love me anymore :ROTFL:

Still need to do some carb work and clean it out real good but Dad is smiling now that I gave it some love. Took the flat file to the bar to rid it of ridges and the burned/burred section from no bar oil :banghead:

Might be able to save the chain also, I have it soaking in trans fluid and worked most of it free from it's rusty death. Well today will be a fun day, finish the Jeep, super duper clean the chainsaw and getting it running like it should, do some trim work on closet project and maybe plant a tree depending on weather :pepper:

Love the spring time
Been out to some Yard Sales and grabbed some resale goodies
Home Depot, Menards and Lowes getting supplies
Talked to Turbo down in C-bus and now ready to head back out and see what else I can grab :pepper:

Loved having daylight till 7:15 or so this week - Spring isn't far behind!

Tom, what kind of goodies do you scavenge for? Jeep stuff? House stuff? I've never been very good at finding deals that I can turn into decent cash. Guess I missed out on that gene... :shock:

Hart, great story about you and the house. I'm really happy for you - a garage/man cave is a great bonus, eh? :BANANA:

Bob,
went looking for tools etc but ended up with a bunch of Fenton Hob Nob glassware all in white. One candy dish I picked up for $1.75, worth about 50-55 bucks. All together bought 19 pieces so pretty good haul. Not what I went after but hey its what it is. All going on Ebay and if not sold there will take down home and sell to some collectors I know. Fenton was made down near where I grew up.
Need to get back into this a little more, getting rusty on some things :wink:

Spring has sprung in my mind :ROTFL:

Sound good to me but Tom is the real craftsman, he just happens to like to hang with old ladies on the weekend searchin for deals :pepper:

Chris has been diggin for old stuff lately all right, they're called nose nuggets :goink:

AND to think another man had his grubby paws all over and under your gal for 6 straight days :shock:

On a different note :jester:

The Jeep and Suzi spent all night together for the first time in the same room, I think they got along very nicely without one single fight, they may even be friends now :shock:

Suzi sat and watched as I worked on Jeep without one complaint this morning but I do think they started to get jealous when I broke out buzz and started to work on him, which I got running like a brand new saw :pepper:

Went out and picked him up some new teeth and ran him through some logs for the first time in many many years. Ran like a champ, cut like hot butter and made papa proud! :pepper:

After all that excitement I got going back on trim work and having to custom make my own since it is no longer made, turned out perfect and now it's time to sand and stain. I still need to make the base boards which is also no longer made but after some thought and tinkering with some scrap I came up with the perfect match! Just need to go grab some more wood and make it happen :pepper:

Tomorrow is going to be a loss of a day though, driving then sitting around doing nothing but pretending like I am interested in what some one else is saying. Man I need a stiff drink already :banghead:

KJWildman · **Posted:** Sun Mar 17, 2013 1:14 am

Gotta admit, them older ladies know how to design :SOMBRERO:

Holy crap, he didn't even put her "underwear" back on the way he found it?!?!?!?! :banghead:

Good to hear his finger it out of his nose and back onto a shovel :jester:

I hate being forced to take a break :banghead:

I even offered the KJ for her to drive up and still no dice, family and I must go :banghead:

I might just torture them with a stop at Lumber Liquidators while I am there :twisted:
