  1. Plus, the bus needed washing anyway!
  2. Don't feel bad, the very first high-powered rifle that I had to fire was the M-1 Garand!
  3. So am I. Ever dropped anything down in the bowl? There used to be a termite treatment product (named chlordane) that, after injecting into the ground at the foundation was good for thirty-plus years. It was banned in 1988 as harmful to health; whatever has replaced it for termite control barely lasts about five years.
  4. The two above posts reminded me of an event that a friend and I would attend (with our respective buses) called "Bus Bash". It was held in various parts of the the NE U. S. once or twice a year. There was no real organization, just an announcement of a day and location. No one knew who or what buses would show up until they got there. It was always an interesting event. I remember one that I (TDH5301-0157 ex Cleveland "Fishbowl"#679 seen on here somewhere above) and George (TDH-5105 ex-Baltimore #1912 now owned by WMATA and used in a couple of US Presidential Inauguration parades!!) drove our buses up to (in northeastern Pennsylvania somewhere) and as we were driving along the state highway, I happened to look to the left and there were the other buses! This was long before Google streetview or the internet; paper maps only! We found a safe place to loop our buses and returned to the site. I later heard about the facial expressions on some folks faces as we went roaring by! Fun times were had by all. As the old crooner said: "Thanks for the memories.".
  5. I guess that my SP SD40T-2 would not work there?
  6. Polecats (skunks) can make decent pets and will have the scent glands removed along with neutering.
  7. My gosh, that "thing" is sooo uuugly!! (The train, not the Union Jack) Hey, at least it has a stiff upper lip!
  8. Due to some temporary bandwidth limitations, Night Owl from the Piedmont.
  9. No, I am not. To me, the "Fab Four" is The Ventures!
  10. AUSTERITY is in at least two books; in the one that I have, they is bound into one volume.
  11. Those were exceptionally BAD!! But still funny!!
  12. I am currently reading a good book about that: AUSTERITY BRITAIN 1945-1951 by David Kynaston He wrote a second volume FAMILY BRITAIN 1951-1957 by David Kynaston I have it and will read it immediately following AUSTERITY .
