Because we don't hang them and we answer them anyway.

You're on my paypal monthly allowance thingie. You should be getting it here in a couple-three days. I'm going to give you a raise as soon as I decipher how to do that.


I can ship you some dried goods if need be.

I can see the restomod thing, kinda, especially on a rust-bucket that was headed to the crusher otherwise.


These, on the other hand, are some royal pieces of $#!t if ever I saw one.

Which reminds me, Wat was s'posed to remove and measure a smaller '6-'47 tank so we could compare it to the larger one and the reproduction one.


Wat's excuse: he got busy and didn't do it.


Perhaps on the Labor Day run to Fred's House.

Logic like that is why Wat digs him some logic.


Wat likes taller gears, too, for lotsa reasons.

Earlier this week, Fred's mother discovered that she, Fred, has a wound which has gotten infected. It's nothing life-threatening, but Fred has been removed to the house for observation. A course of treatment became apparent and it be administered and monitored, and a full recovery is expected.


That's the good news. The bad news is, Fred may become an Indoor Kitty, and that will put the kibosh on Packard Fred pictures. I'll miss those, but Fred is guaranteed to stay out of the road if she's in the house, and she will still be in control of my brain.


Now, I can strip the blue '41 and junk the rest and not feel guilty about trashing Fred's sunroom.

Thinking about it.


Bought a farm and a new S&W model 19 this month, so I've spent my allowance for the month.

Okay, I want one!!!


I have more projects than time, damn it.

Handsome cat!!! I see that he found a box . . . .

I was advised that if the lines look halfway decent and if the car didn't come from Salted Roads country, that all I would have to do is to disconnect them, flush them with isopropyl, replace whatever cylinder and rubber parts, refill them with Dot5, bleed and drive. Shoes, too, I suppose. And maybe the odd turned drum.


Going is optional, but stopping is mandatory.
