I needed that more than I knew. Thank you to everyone that contributed to an out-freaking-standing gathering. I do not remember laughing so hard in a long time. The food as always was on point. From the oysters, jambalaya, Brunswick Stew, to the pulled pork, pizza, and pirogues. Not a bad meal...

dang it

Happy Birthday Jim. I hope you had a great day! Here’s to another one.

9.5% on most items. 6.5% on food. Nice thing is everyone pays it though. Unlike property taxes and income taxes. Vehicle registration isn’t bad here either. $60 bucks a year for our daily drivers. $50 one time registration for the El Camino since it is historic plates. No registration required...

Property taxes in TN are a fraction of what they are in Ohio. TN has zero state, local, or school district income taxes. They seem to be able to do it. Now I understand that it is not a true apples to apples comparison but is an example.

Another good short to check out is tecvasen. Have a couple pair. Very good product. Wont be able to speak to the fit for you giants. They come down to top of knee on us midgets. 🤣

Hell yeah! You have been busy buddy. Lots of great memories being made. The SS Jackalope looks great. Can’t wait to see it in person.

I am not too familiar with the 2.7 TurboTax motor. I am not a fan of any motor that has the fuel management system that deactivates cylinders. Many people have never had issues with them. Others have washed cylinders out. If I could delete the auto stop/start BS I would as well. They say it has...

After 30 straight days of 90°+ temps and dew points in the 70s, High of 79° today. Feels awesome. I love the hot weather but I am enjoying the break.

Operations Manager for a Cell Phone company. Spend the majority of my time putting out fires. Been in the cell phone world for 27 years. Gonna try to make it 5 more years before I swap it out for a new career as First Mate of the SS Jackalope. He doesn’t know it yet but it’s my plan. 🤣

Welcome aboard ! Great intro. Look forward to following along on your adventures. Good luck this year and stay safe.

Thanks for the thoughts. This site has been phenomenal for me. Took the weed eater over to his cross and cleaned up the area a little. Someone put a red and a blue ballon on his cross sometime today.

Another year. Apologize for the rambling. Today still hits. It has become a little more of a time of reflection than really grieving though. I guess. Hell I don’t know what it is. When T and I were down in Aruba a few weeks ago we had the chance to talk to a lot of people at the resort. Saw...

I do like my GMC 1500 AT4. Matter of fact we have decided that when we replace my wife’s vehicle she is going to take it and I will buy a 2500 version. Have a little less than 80k on the clock. Only issue I have had has been with the tail gate radio. Ended up not being the truck causing the...

Like you guys up north we have been pretty soggy. The last couple days we have seen a couple months worth of water. Been a crazy year for sure. Going to need to rework some drainage as the driveway keeps getting washed out during the heaviest of rains. I think I am going to add an asphalt curb...
