The *NEW* Good Morning Thread!
Yep, also correct on ketchup in the cup, I like a few tots with my ketchup. I'm a ketchupoholic! However, all the food on that plate is my dinner alone. My wife and kids regularly call me "the bottomless pit". I'm definitely gonna have to find a way to change my eating habits when the day comes when I can no longer continue the workout regimen I adhere to now.
Chris - Ah - the cup of ketchup is for the tator tots, now that makes sense. I don't put ketchup on tator tots but that makes sense. That's a mountain of food, but if that's what it takes chow down big dog! I still haven't purchased a Razzleberry pie but it's on my list.
Mike, I think that I would try someone else for the A/C. I can't see throwing more money at the same guy to try and get it right. Kenneth....Ketchup on brats!!! WTH!.

Mike, No not the 7 sister, There would be a few killings with that crowd. This is cousin crowd It's growing from 12 to 18
I left the dishwasher door open, to see how many people would trip over it before taking the hint that it needs to be unloaded
Chris, Ya need too add sum Varsity chili to them dogs

James - I'm sure you've already figured out I just love food, period! I do love a good chili dog and we have them regularly, but I don't really care for chili on bratwurst, which are what those are in my post above. I've never seen "Varsity" canned chili, I see it's an Atlanta product on the can, I don't know if any stores out here carry that or not. Wife and I like "Chili Man" that we buy in the six-packs from Sam's Club.

Chris, I always make my own chili [with beans] so I don't have anything to compare it to. I only use the expensive Varsity chili on hot dogs so I don't buy a great deal of it. Atlanta folks were weened at the Varsity so we tend to go a little crazy over their food
I've been trying to drag Mike there for 10 years, Maybe one day,
BTW It werked, the dishes jumped out of the dishwasher and into the cabinets I love it when a plan comes together

Hi guys,
My wife just finished her latest masterpiece. She wouldn't let me near her shop while she was working on it because she wanted to surprise me. Man, I was blown away! Not for everyone, but I love patriotic themes and I absolutely love it, especially because she did it all by freehand, no stenciling or pattern to go by. I want to find some place to keep it. It's a very old Lane cedar chest with the folding tray for jewelry, watches, etc. in the lid.

Chris,
Love your bride's work
I like Frito pie chili
Basically Fritos on the bottom, then home made chili with beans then topped off with cheese [and onion if you want] Yep it "stands alone"

Hi everyone.
Pretty evening out. Pretty hot.
Jamesbo I've been to the Varsity a couple times. But I've never had a signature item, like a peach pie or an FO. Although I did eat in the Lunching Pad one of those times. After we meet at Chris's for his brakes we can all meet at the Varsity. Not on the same day.
Don't think I've ever eaten chili out of a can. Nor would I. My Mom makes her own chili and I bring it home with me from Florida. She says it's very easy and I could make it myself. I'm not about to. I like grape jelly on Ritz crackers with my chili.
Chris the cedar chest is very nice. Did she make it for you or are you claiming it? What are you going to put in it? Car parts.
Work was okay today, a little slow, got out a little before 2. I'll go in early tomorrow as well. Hopefully we aren't there all day. I'm not going in Saturday.
Well I'm gonna hit the sack. I've already eaten, watched Starsky and Hutch, and the dog has been out. And I'm beat. Hope everyone has a good evening. One more to go.

No she didn't make the chest for me, but I wanted it. I offered her $200 for it and she turned me down, now isn't that a fine state of affairs! She wants to see what she can get on the open market and is initially going to ask $300 for it. I don't think she'll get that out of it. I was going to use it to put my hunting clothing and gear in, Cedar Chests are good for that because the cedar smell masks human scent.
Hey, don't drag me into a ketchup debate. I was the one who pointed out the lack of beer with the brats.
Hi everyone.
Good day at work. I went in early, we spun 130 wheels, and I left around 11. Went to the Awful house. Stayed about an hour, hoping Billy or Bob would show up but neither did, so I left. About an hour and a half later, I called another guy and he said he was headed to the Awful house. So I went back up there to see him.
Hot out. Let me see if I get this right. Looks like there come up a cloud. I want to finish the mowing but I don't know if it's going to rain. The weather report is inconclusive.
I'm off until Tuesday. Had two separate plans and neither worked out, but I'm not in the habit of giving back time off, so I've got plenty to keep me busy. I had thought about going in tomorrow, knowing I'll be done around 10, but hell I don't want to get up at 2 on a Saturday. I think I've got too many OT hours anyway. After I think 20 I get taxed at an enormous rate and I actually make less. Can't have that. I could work for POAD, but that's a ripoff. Only paid straight. Awful house sounds like the better deal.
Okay off to attempt mowing. Happy Friday everyone.

Good afternoon guys,
I think I'm gonna go to a cruise-in this evening, even though it's hotter than hell, 91 with RealFeel of 105. I'm going mainly because it's the only event within reasonable driving distance this weekend. It's the one I went to 2-weeks ago and posted that it was kind of lame, but it was their 1st one, and I'm hoping the word has got out more and will be better attended tonight. It's a nice drive for me and a good location at an Elks Lodge with a ton of parking, and they sell food and beverages for reasonable prices.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

James - Good looking clan there pardner! Really nice pic!
I did go to the cruise-in this evening and it was better attended than the last one! I took pictures early and didn't get around to take more, as more cars continued to trickle in during the 2&1/2-hours I was there. It was warm, but I found some shade and there was a little breeze blowing so it was bearable. Warmest part was the ride there with no A/C leaving the house at 4:30, pretty damn toasty! There was only one other 0ld's there, I believe it's a '63 98 Vert. Here's the pics:
Going on about a 3-hour ride with a couple of neighbors at 0700 tomorrow before it gets too warm, supposed to be blistering tomorrow afternoon. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Nice pics Chris. I was planning on going to a car show next weekend, one that I have gone to for about a dozen years. it was always on the last Saturday in July, well, suprise they moved it, and it was held in June. No notification from them (I usually get an email for the show as a reminder). I have a co worker who lives up there (Hart, MI.) and he had no idea that it moved. So, my next event will be the Red Barns Spectacular at the Gilmore. Chris, ya need to visit your sister so you can check it out. I may go to a cruise this coming Friday, the 30th, and take pics of cars there. They usually have a couple hundred there. Jamesbo, is that the cast of Sparticus? A good looking crew.

Only part of the cast of Spartacus. 2 army ranger Iraq/ Afghanistan war vets, with kids ( I came back fully loaded and had triplets) the old farts are in the shade on the screen porch at the house
James, what a great picture! Looks like a great time!
Chris, that Gremlin looks like the one my sister had back in 1980 or so, what a great basic car it was. She had this plastic/stuffed monkey that she used to hang from the rear view mirror. It had nostrils that the fingers would stick in and stay. Guess what we always did to her monkey when she left the car alone!! Oh memories, and what brings them back.. hadn't thought about that in years... Also Chris, I was watching the news and they were saying one of the big shortages now are new furniture. People are being told they will have 6 mos to a year to get a new piece of furniture. So that may help your wife's profitable hobby, Why wait when you can by like new used?
Dan, I haven't been to Hickory Corners in a long time, course now we live in Harrison it's a long drive. Hope you have a good time there.

Good morning everyone.
And it's been a long morning. Got up early and took Tiger to the vet. He's had trouble with his ears for awhile and they needed to be looked at. The place opens at 8, we got there after 7 and the lot was packed. So I called and got my space in line, almost two hours later it was our turn. Got a bunch of medicine for him, one of which is an ear wash so I can flush his ears out twice a day. It didn't work too well in the office so it should be real fun at home with just me. Well, we'll do our best.
Nice pictures Chris. I see your car snuck in there as well. My favorite this time around is the black gangster looking convertible.
Jamesbo that's a good looking bunch. How many more to sink that dock? Koda have a good time with your company.
Okay this afternoon I'm going over to clean up a little at the shop. Later I'm taking the big truck over to a friend of mine's and we're going to pull tree stumps.
Have a good Saturday everyone. Nice here, clouds and then sun. I'm chanting in the back of my mind no rain no rain.

Good afternoon everyone,
Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I've been busy so far this morning. Went for a motorcycle ride with two neighbors between 0700 and 1000. We rode south to Ste. Genevieve, MO which is a very historic town right on the Mississippi. I won't swear to this, but it may be the oldest town west of the Mississippi. Several historic buildings there to see. It was a nice ride and we got home before it got too warm.
When I got home I got right to mowing and got done around 1200. Whew, the heat and humidity kicked my ****! It's 94 right now with about 65% humidity.
James - I hope you survive the cast of Spartacus without a rebellion!
Mike - Good luck with Tiger and the ear wash! Been there, done that, ain't no fun for the dog or the owner, and I would imagine damn near impossible for one person if Tiger puts up a fight anything like mine!
Everyone have a great evening!

Chris, the Gilmore car museum is in Hickory Corners. The Red Barns Spectacular is Aug. 7th. and is thier biggest show. Something going on there every weekend, with a cruise in on Wednesday's. Last weeks cruise in had 600 cars. There is also a fall musclecar show in Sept. I don't have the date handy. It sits on 90 acres, so, plenty of room. https://gilmorecarmuseum.org/
