Hey H1, after your post been trying to figure out some of your Lineage ? Looks like you may have some Tribal influence in it.

"lets not be running down North Dakota.....they are not part of Canada they really are a State.... I mean why not Minot? ya.... you betcha"

That could be the North Dakota Sioux as they were in the Dakotas, N&S and also Montana and NB.
The Minots,? that would probable be the Me-Not from Canada group??


"I have driven across N Dak several times but can't remember anything aboot it"
That would definitely be a connection to the Fugarewe tribe, as in where the Fugarewe!

"although some of my forbears are buried in Rolla..... migrated to Montana in the early 1900's."
Buried in Rolla and then migrated to Montana, now that must indicate One Hell of a Medicine Man at some point!
Hope this clears up some things for YA....

What's up Ruxxy? you still upset one of your favorite guys isn't on TV any more, or did the LSDHL take your evening entertainment Ruxxy Bucks away? Maybe this will help?

Here is something I did not know, and that is they had a Hurst addition 300 of which only 485 were made...... I have never ever seen one. 375 hp 440 with the Gold on white paint scheme....... amazing....

We had a guy in the town where I grew up that bought one of these. Freakin cool car. Not really a car, more like a land yacht. But as I remember, the fiberglass hood didn’t fit real well. But the gold trimmed interior was nice.

Im surprised he got away with a lot of his come backs. Today they would be considered pretty mild, but back then those answers were pretty risqué. As I was watching this, I was laughing so hard my wife asked if I was having fun and what I was watching. Thanks for posting Seeme.

We went to Meadowbrook Theater last night for a Classic Car night and to see a musical play titled Route 66.

They usually have 6 different plays/events through the year, as they run 3 - 4 weeks each as shows are always only a couple days per week.
Music was from the 50's and 60's, and some of the songs played and sung reminded me of more than a few here.
Will post videos of those later.

Here are some pictures, and a link to 20 total for those who want to view them.

...speaking of Route 66 I am watching the original series now on Prime..... it has commercials..... but back then you got 52 minutes out of an hour of story time.... now its like 42 minutes...... the rest is ads...... its the first season and they are in 60 C1 vert....... the acting was stiff and lets just say TV has come a long way since 1960...... I was just there for the car anyway.......

So Doc is grumpy since she got picked up for running a red light out by the Interstate...... as she tells it she is innocent but aren't they all? She was coming out of Wal Mart at the light on highway 81 when she let a pickup truck and a trailer with a motorcycle on it get in front of her. She just followed him on through the intersection not paying attention to the light.... City cop was behind her in a flash with all lights going..... she should have turned in a McDonalds but couldn't figure out what she had done.... so went across the I80 on the bridge before she found a spot to pull over that was wide enough...... Barney wanted all the usual stuff.... although she did not give him her Concealed Carry card...... I said why not? and she said everyone in Nebraska can carry now without a permit..... I said.... are you sure? I think so...... oh well..... so when the cop asked her why she didn't pull over right away..... she said, I wanted a place safe enough so you don't get run over..... Brilliant.... remember that one if you need it...... so after his time in his cruiser which she says he must have ate his lunch..... he came up and gave her a ticket for failure to yield which is only a $25 dollar fine...... and wid court costs will be like $75 bucks......... running a red light is a lot more expensive I guess........ she was thinking a warning...... but now her name will be in the paper and everyone will know what a desperado she really is....... somewhere in this is a lesson....... I'm thinking it's a good deed never goes unpunished........ don't ever let anyone in line and then blindly follow them........

building a sand box today and got some oil for da Super Stock Dodge...... 10-30 Lucas Hot Rod Oil........... I asked on the MoPar forum what is the best oil for a roller cam and roller rockers........ and I swear every post was a different answer.... no Zinc to yes Zinc.... run Diesel 15-40....... no synthetic to yes synthetic...... on and on........ finally after combing through many forums it came down to a conventional oil in a 10-30 will work just fine....... especially if its is changed every year with low miles...... Mobil 1 was often mentioned..... so I'm using Lucas in the 56 might as well put it in the Dodge......

gotta go mow....... keep the shiny side up Hammers.................

How bout this...maybe the answer for H1 to get back in a corvette! Growing family to cart around, maybe even a Business expense to get out in the fields in Style
Maybe he'll surprise us..yes um or the little Doc to get around town with the Grand-KidS for groceries too...

Maybe answers the Question...

Yuppers...to hear the LSDHL tell it she has never had a ticket. Ever. Kinda sorta. Well, 'cept the time she was doin 40 in a school zone and the camera got her. But that's not really a ticket. Same when she was nabbed for an illegal left turn. Camera. Does Not Count. Or, when coming home from Wazzu ON MOTHERS DAY (yup, sumbitch nailed her) doin 75 in a 60. But she did online traffic court so that one doesn't count. Or, the time she was doin 85 in a 75. But that was just a warning so it doesn't count, either.
But, then I haven't had a tickets either...for a little while now...

..well if the SUVette..... does happen...... I don't trust the designers to come up with a nice looking vehicle........ it will need to be very cool..... and I don't think Chevy can do very cool looking cars these days.....
