Each year about this time I spend a week at the EAA Fly In in Oshkosh. The show was cancelled last year because of Covid, two years ago we welcomed 642,000 guests. We're expecting to surpass that number this year. If it's been on your Bucket List, this might be the year to see it. Thanks to...

And the last group.... I thought the story of this Chevrolet was worthy of sharing. You'll need to zoom in to ready the copy. I can't be sure of the year on this one, I want to say a 1958 Corvette. Lastly, a 1955 Chevrolet. Zoom Zoom!

Continuing from Thread #1... 1970 Plymouth Superbird Autographed by Richard Petty and Dale Jr.

We spent some of our weekend at the Annual Pierce Park Car Show in Appleton. A lot of old iron to see and I captured around a dozen photos of cars and trucks from the past. If memory serves me, this program only allows about four photos per thread so I may have to post twice... Here goes...

Thought I'd offer some common sense for the upcoming holiday. Most dogs don't like fireworks! Use some caution when it's time to touch off the arsenal. Not just for personal safety but for the sake of the pets. If the dog or cat is pacing, panting, hiding, they're probably sensitive to the...

The kids filed into class Monday morning. They were all very excited. Their weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on salesmanship. Little Sally led off. “I sold Girl Scout cookies and I made $30” she said proudly, “my sales approach was to appeal to the customer’s civil...

So a traveling salesman goes into a fairly grungy diner. The waitress comes over and she looks even worse. Deciding not to take any chances, the salesman orders two hamburgers and a hot dog. The waitress comes over a few minutes later with the hamburgers stuck in her arm pits. The...

Thought I'd share an experience I had yesterday with my cellphone. I always carry it in my right hip pocket, took the phone out to check something and noticed it was warm to the touch, not hot but getting there. After looking closer I noticed the case had separated, front from the back, still...

7.3% That's how much the price of used car and truck prices have increased in the last year according to the U.S. Labor Dept. Locally we've had two pre-owned businesses close in recent weeks due to a lack of inventory. I traded mid-size pickups back in April. The dealer offered me above Blue...

A fellow stopped at a rural gas station and, after filling his tank, he paid the bill and bought a soft drink. He stood by his car to drink his soda, and he watched a couple of men working along the roadside. One man would dig a hole two or three feet deep and then move on. The other man came...

I thought I'd freshen up the forum with something new about old stuff. Here's a handful of photos from a car show this weekend in my neck of the woods. The first two are of engines that caught my eye. Sorry for the jumbled array. Something went haywire when I was uploading.

A man appeared before St. Peter at the pearly gates. "Have you ever done anything of particular merit?" St. Peter asked. Well, I can think of one thing," the man offered. " On a trip to the Black Hills out in South Dakota, I came upon a gang of mean-spirited bikers, who were threatening a young...

Thank You!

John, It sounds like you and Nora will be on the road soon. Good "Luck" probably isn't the best we can offer, let's make it Good Medicine and the Best Doctors instead. Luck is for lotteries and card games, you need the best care anywhere and Mayo is just the ticket. You've got a lot of people...

I've always been a big fan of the Gary Larson cartoons. The first one requires you to be of certain age to know who D.B. Cooper was. If the name draws a blank have Google, Alexa, or Wiki bring you up to speed. The second one gets a tip of the hat to a Seinfeld Episode with the link included...

Been gone a couple of days so the computer could be tuned up, faster, better, cleaner, etc. Any word on Big Foot or Jimmy Hoffa? Aaron Rodgers? Cause all three are missing! I see we're still arguing over Facemasks at Menards...a certain someone is still stirring the pot.... and Huck has crossed...

I'll nominate this one for the Darwin Awards Colonial Pipeline restarts after cyberattack that snarled gas supply for days. (WFRV) – One would think it’s common sense, but the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued one warning: ‘Do not fill plastic bags with gasoline.’ You read...

Don't worry, you're not going blind, the files load this way. Hover your cursor over the print and it'll enlarge like magic!! ...and the next day, same teacher different class
