[E.G.C.]

((HUGS))Good morning, GodBlessUSA. How’s it going?

[GodBlessUSA]

Very good, thanks! How are you today?

[E.G.C.]

It’s going OK. Been doing lots of stuff on the computer this morning.

[RightField]

Golly ... this is too easy. A Mazda rotary engine station wagon. What was I thinking back then?

[neal1960]

I couldn’t agree more. I bought one new in ‘79. Had it for 12 months. It was in the garage 13 times.

What was I thinking back then?

Kinda the same thing we sometimes say when we think back to who we had a crush on or the clothes we wore back years ago and ..... LOL

[beachn4fun]

Good morning, dear

((HUGS))

I’m still waiting for the rain (drumming fingers on the desk)

[Arrowhead1952]

Good morning to you. (((HUGS))) to both of you.

We had over two inches of rain yesterday.

We have been dry for months. Thank God our prayers were answered.

[CapnJack]

Yeah, I had a 5 year loan on the thing and couldn't afford to get another truck any earlier than 9 years.

From: CapnJack in NH.

PS: gotta love your Governor, she is right there is a special kinship between Alaska and NH with the tax structures and the love of the outdoors.

Have a good day.

Renault Alliance. I think Renault is French for "crap with four wheels". Bad memories.

Worst Car was my first car: 1977 VW Rabbit, w/ fuel injection. The floor board had rusted out under both the driver (real bad) and the passenger (just a little hole). I could see the road under my feet as I drove, and would drop "smoke grenades" down the hole at night (teenage years). That was fun until I missed the hole as I drove and the whole car filled with smoke real fast at 3AM and had to pull over and open both doors and the hatchback to let the smoke billow out. I had to explain what I did to the cop when they passed by, he almost fell over from laughter, didn't get a ticket.
Worst motorcycle was my 1979 AMF Harley XLS Sportster -- I carried two saddlebags of spare parts and tools. It truly lived up to the old Harley adage, "It ain't a Harley if it doesn't leak." I've heard they're better now, but I can't afford to take the risk again.

You wouldn’t have had to lead me by much...

If it’s any consolation, it’s much better now in Iraq than ever in the past. I just got back from Southern Baghdad (Rashid District), and it’s getting better. We saw a lot of activity decrease after the “March Madness”, and it’s remained low throughout the summer. The locals are really stepping up (the permanent solution vice the surge - a temporary solution) and taking charge of their own country. May G-d bless you and your husband, and our family will add him to our nightly prayers with my buddies who are still there.

“My parents was a ‘73 green Hornet.”
