Revenge of the TARDLINGS ....

[Eddies66]

Why don't "We the People" talk about "accountability" of both political parties. We take this gutless stance on term limitations when we already have that ability to do something about it, it's called VOTE. Integrity, don't get me started on this issue in politics.


Enough, it is a beautiful day here in the valley, temps in the 70s. Going to go clean a few leaves out of the pool, take the dog for a walk, already gave my wife a card and flowers. Need to put up a couple shelves in the shop and re-jet the carburetor from 5000 ft to 282 ft.

Eddie, I can agree with everything that you've said here EXCEPT the weather. Snow, sleet and rain in my valley today with temps in the mid 20s getting to the mid 30s...

Billy, I don't have to "practice to be miserable" anymore. We tried rural Nevada, living about an hour from Tahoe. 8 months of bad weather, 45 miles for a loaf of bread. It just got old, Palm Springs area is more to our liking.

I did exactly the opposite. Spent the first 40 years of my life in northern New Jersey not being able to park my racecar in front of my house let alone run it. Now, I live on a farm, in a beautiful valley on a 12 mile long dead-end road in central Pennsylvania. I run race motors whenever I want to and have been known to make a lap-or-two up and down said road and don't have to answer to anybody (but my sweetie). Heaven!

Eddie, when we last lived in Florida, we had to go 50 miles to a good grocery store (Publix, best ever), or my wife to her school and didn't mind it all. Today, I looked at my Suburban in the driveway with the engine heater on, and it was covered with ice like undercoating and you could not walk outside. God, I miss Florida, snakes,gators, and fireants ants & all.

Mark, it was in the 60's here....maybe you should move back south. Lol
I took our Ranger out in the desert for the first time since I got sick, 3 years ago. Had to put a light jacket on. Turned up the power amp and listened to my girl groups. Even had some beers... great to be alive..

Thanks for thinking of me but I've got a nice little shop here in a metal building. If it was in Phoenix, by about April, it would like working out of a toaster oven.. Enjoy the next two months, by all means.

Medical was another reason, we had 8 people die in our neighborhood (5 year span), 3 didn't make it to the hospital and 3 or 4 died of poor doctoring. I live now 2 miles from Eisenhower, have a holistic doctor that doesn't push pills. We are in the right place to live our best life.

Just reading the other day that it takes an average of $120k to live in SoCal.
