Yuk it up, my topless wide-bodied brother. You will find out soon enough that H1 and I have decided to impose some Trump-like tariffs:
Alcohol: there will not be a tariff imposed on alcohol, or alcoholic beverages (Lord knows we charge all we can now). There WILL be a tariff imposed on cups, mugs, glasses (yes, the same cheesy stuff we always use) or anything one can pour alcohol into for consumption. Please, that was not a cue to relate a story about your Uncle Fred who died of consumption, God rest his soul.
Paper: There will be a tariff imposed on paper products. Read that as napkins, tissues, and toilet paper, to name a few. MrsH1 and the LSDHL got involved here and said we should allow some paper products. They suggested sand paper. H1 and I quickly concurred.
The meeting was adjourned with a return to regular programming.

Hey, that's my Shirley Muldowney shirt. Given to me by Shirley don't call me Cha Cha Muldowney herself.

Have your eyes checked for macular degeneration. The lines look straight to me.


There must be a wavy wood, or a woody wave, joke but it's late.

Good catch...and I got "the business" when I got home. But, we both agree, it was worth it. It's always nice to make new friends. As long as he has a GS...

A 24 year old and his mother walk into a national-chain car dealership. The son buys a car (his money) but, because he doesn't have a driver license, the dealership hands the keys to mom and she drives the car off the lot. Perfect. The dealership acted properly, right? A year later...one fricken year later...the son, still without a driver license, hits a pedestrian in a crosswalk and the pedestrian suffers catastrophic brain damage.
Question, boys and girls: who is a fault or, more the American way, who should pay (and someone should...must.)?
A. The son driving the car? Bzzzt! Wrong, the kid has no money.
B. The mom? Bzzzt! Wrong, mom doesn't have enough money.
C. The dealership? Bingo, we have a winner (and deep pockets).
Even though the dealership acted completely within the boundaries of the law, and the accident happened a year after purchase, the dealership pays $5.5 million.
The pedestrians family was devastated. I get that. They will have a huge financial burden going forward. I get that.
But the dealership??? I don't get that.
OK, I'm done.
Come on Ruxy that's easy...the stupid people elected the legislators, the legislators have the lawyers write the laws, the judge is just a lawyer couldn't make it as a lawyer so just there till retirement, and the Jury is the stupid ones elected the legislators in the first place. Kind of like the Montana farmer story. Wolves were getting into his livestock so he put out a salt block with razor blades in it. The wolves licked it until they hit the razor blades, then the blood tasted so good they ate themselves to death...H1 should know that one even...just saying.

WTH, these pictures have to go around the world before they get here. Guess that says something about the GS'ers tech savy, let a baser do it for 'em.
Well now lets see...how did a good looking lady get hooked up with a couple of GS'ers like that.

Ruxy, I don't worry now about how my legs have to be redacted a little by now Glad to see your not a short guy anyway like Wayne the car man. White looks good on you too.

Where the hell did all H1's pretty hair go from when he was a Biker... If he let it grow longer he could pass for Jesus in a flower child shirt by way of Hawaii.
Well that's probably enough, really enjoy the pictures, good to see we all have aged Gracefully. Enjoy the trip and more pictures is good. I would really like a pic of H1 with the kids and a weed down in people park in Seattle. They'd probably arrest him for contributing to minors there...that's all folks.

If H1 goes East on I-5 here's a couple pics so he won't have to send any...just saying



Going up the Pass headed East. Nice highway going west on other side.


Looking back a Seattle from the brush MT Rainier in the middle very faint...


Some truckers for H1 to talk to top of Vantage Hill


Vantage bridge


Columbia River at Vantage


Lost horses across the bridge



Coming into Vantage other side of Ellensburg, not much there.


Coming in to Spokane on the edge of Coug Country...

Big R............... any good news updates on the health situation??????????

Even if we could make a joint venture trip to KY if your health and situation allows??????

Will send an email later this week, or you could shoot me one if you have time with any updates............ would also like to get the baser from TX involved too

Get notified of new replies

Surgery scheduled for August 1st....so, we'll see how things are going afterward.

Seeing I'll have to take a couple of unplanned weeks off for that, a venture to KY (or anywhere) is off the table for me. So, maybe a MN meet if you come through this way.

That may end up being the route I end up................... back on I - 90 headed west..........

we can make plans after your August 1st date and recovery process..................

I wasn't too keen on taking my 427 to KY in the mid October time period.................

weather may be OK heading south, just coming back north afterwards could have been too "iffy"
