    Yippie. I got a new job.

    I didnt even learn how to tie a tie until I was 27. From that day forward I started making more and more money. Always worked in the sun before that. But I live in Florida. If you keep working in the sun you will die young. Cancer kills. Ties dont. Well some times.

    Yippie. I got a new job.

    I didnt realy need one just yet, but another financial institution scouted me out. I will be able to say I am truly a upper to middle class worker now. Let me just say to all the young people working in factories or slave driving blue collar jobs for 10 to 12 bucks an hour. Cut your hair and...

    258 Upgrade

    RE: Re: Career Change 2: Radiologic Technology go for it. I was not after horsepower. I wanted low end torque. If you read the parts list it was not all motor. I will still have more torque than your 4.0 will ever have unless you pay more cash.

    258 Upgrade

    1985 CJ7 Automatic 6 cy for $1,500 I just got off the phone with my machine shop. My first cylinder on the block( I think the no 1 piston) was wider than the rest. He said that is very common for the 258. They are going to bore it to .40 over. The total for the shortblock rebuild will be $800...

    Can a YJ body fit atop a 2003-2005 Rubicon body???? HELP!!

    I think you have this backwards. The square lights where so far advanced than the roundies they decided the world was not ready for them. Except for the few worthy like myself. Hence the return of the roundies.

    Daytona 500!

    RE: toughest bumpers for $$ I got to watch the race up close and personal. In the Tiny Lund Section Row 19 seat 1 one coming out of turn 2. What a redneck convention. Before the race I spent my time at BIGGINS across the street from my hotel room. Anyone else get to go?

    No hostility. Just tired of all the whimpering about the weather on the sport shows and the fools who dont now how to pull over and read a map or ask for directions. Damn tourist. Maybe they will enjoy the freezing cold in Detroit next year better than the 60's we hosted for them this year...

    the eagles are going to jacksonville

    Definatly hard to find a good bar around here. The darn Baptist have had and still have a strangle hold on this city. We could not even get NYPD Blues when it was on tv. It was to violent and graphic to be aired in our city. Maybe this event sucking will rattle some feathers and help loosen the...
