Evolution weeded out the cave men who couldn't tell the difference between a cow and a bull.

I'd have loved to have been there when the first cave man tried cow's milk. "Hey, y'all, watch this!"

Savannah, Ga, where it's Savannah humid.

You called 911 for... directions?

I stopped by the Knoxville Flying J last night to fuel and was gonna grab a quick shower. The place was all tore up in one of the finest examples of a Charlie Foxtrot that I've ever seen. Restaurant being remodeled, restrooms, showers, too. They were installing new fuel pumps everywhere, and...

K9 Rover. Get it? Rover. Oh, well, I guess you hadda be there. Layout shooter. Get it? Layout shooter. Tough crowd.

My first van was a short wheelbase Ford E-350. I paid cash for it. Plenty of room for a couple of skids in the back. Unfortunately, with 2 skids in the back there wasn't room for much else. I cannot tell you how many times I had a Friday pickup for Monday delivery, and no place to sleep for 3...

Dried plums are the perfect substitute for prunes.

Kewl site, good for looking at stuff, but that particular online retailer (and their parent company) has a particularly bad reputation for several reasons, none of which I'll go into here. The Yahoo Sprinter Group contains many horror stories, tho. Places with infinitely better reputations...

I'll take some pics so you can see, but it's basically held up with right angle brackets. If you look closely, you can see some right angle brackets supporting the shelves, 4 for each shelf. The ones for the shelves have one screw hole on each end, the ones for the vertical supports have two...

Sort of. It's just that the plywood is thicker than the E-track. The end result is that the E-track is recessed, 'cause the last thing you want is something other than a smooth deck for sliding pallets loaded with freight. I've seen some people go overboard in complicating the simple, putting...

There are two things you don't mess with, Texas, and a New Orleans chef.

Almost always, yes. I've had a couple or three loads where it made more sense not to, but the SOP is to cross the straps (unlike Ghostbusters, where you never cross the straps, oh, wait, that's streams. Never cross the streams. Never mind). Most 2-skid loads I never have to strap, 'cause...

I saw a sign in a storefront the other day in a small Wisconsin town about a Utah permit.

I dunno. I could go back there and measure, but that would require, uhm, effort. :D I think it's about 41-inches. The narrowest distance between those two side walls down there is about 49 inches, maybe 49½, and the E-track is 5-inches wide, so in between the inner edges of the E-track would...

A lot of us do. I live in a small town, and the County Clerk (the one who does the drivers licenses) is a very good friend of mine. She knows all the rules backwards and forwards and all the little quirks and exceptions to be found within them, most of which I know, too, thanks to her. But like...

Seat belts or not, the most severe injuries are the head injuries. If it was really and truly about our safety, we'd all be required to wear helmets while in the car, passengers and women who don't want their hair messed up included. There's a reason NASCAR drivers wear helmets.

Awesome :D

Don't install it wrong.
