    Daylight Savings Time

    I have never even thought about putting smiley faces or other things on my posts. To be honest, until today, I never even paid any attention to those icon do-hickeys below!! I guess I should be ashamed!! Layoutshooter

    Daylight Savings Time

    Geez, that was meant to be tounge in cheek. I actually read something along those lines years ago in the reader write in section in the Miami Herlold. Some bafoone was complaining about his lawn being burned more now that Daylight Saving Time was in effect. I really see no reason to change...

    Winter Returns

    Well, yes we do require more, or at least we should. ALGORE is a dunce, or maybe we are. We keep re-electing that same fools time in and time out. No change, nothing new. Just the same ole "stuff". All we do is change the name of the party that is "deposititng" the "stuff" on us. Layoutshooter

    Daylight Savings Time

    I will stick with Standard time. I see no valid reason to mess with the sun. What effect will this have on global warming? Geez, they can't have it both ways. You better believe that an hour extra daylight everyday will raise the earth's temp. So much for blaming green house gasses. Layoutshooter

    When will the bottom come?

    Are there any chain auto "Repair" shops traded on the stock market? I heard a report on the "boom" in the auto repair business. I guess all those "A" students who got thier multiple degress and made fun of those "lowly stupid" auto shop kids don't look quite at smart as they used to. eh...

    TriState & Caterpillar

    Yea, Detroit is pretty bad right now. I think in the 4 years we have been at this we have delivered or picked up maybe 10 loads total that could be called "Detroit Loads" IF you really streched the area to get them included. Most of the time when we are home we end up getting loads out of...

    Winter Returns

    Well, ALGORE did invent the internet!! In reality he did all he could to stop the internet from being invented. He fought the funding for MILNET and a couple of other project the names of which I can't remember that were the precursers for the internet and were the driving force for it. Of...

    Can't bring the gun, too many anti-gun nuts out there. They don't like me hunting or even fishing for that matter. I can remember when those kooks over at PETA wanted to outlaw fishing on the grounds that it was cruel to worms. They now want to re-name fish to "sea-kittens." They think that...

    Cabela's is not at all what it was like when I started there. It was a great place to work until the Cabela's brothers sold out 49% of the company and turned over day to day opporations over to Chase/Morgan/Stanley. Few of those that were there when I started there, I helped open it, still work...

    Are those "Flatheads" OVM? The biggest flathead I have ever caught was just over 30 pounds on the Maumee River in Ohio. I have a friend who has one out of there that was over 80lbs. He is still trying to get one over 100. He had a 50 pounder in the aquarium at the Cabela's in Dundee MI. What...
