dude, i've done it by hand forever.

DAMMMMM, Man, you thru yourself open, but I'll pass on it.

Except for my copd an arthritis I would be in really good shape for 79yo. But if I shake a bag for 15 mins I would be down for about a week. Can't do repetitive moves like shaking.

I was watching a YouTube video and a Chantix ad played. I immediately grabbed a cigarette and sparked it up. Fuck you Ray Liotta!

like i said, if you like to build shit, build it....i wish i still had the walk in closet full of erector set stuff i had when i was a kid....

i had at least 50 of these sets with the motors, and a load of extra stuff from buying the shit at yard sales and flea markets....
i learned a lot...how to build a trebuchet, exactly how many pieces it took to be strong enough to stand on......built a whole town in the backyard one summer, had roads and bridges.....
the shits so expensive now, i just can't make myself pay 127.00 for what i got for 12.99 when i was a kid.

well, if you had skin like a bad grapefruit, you'd probably wear some foundation, too.....

I cleared out a closet in order to rent out a room and packed away about #50 of lego's and a racetrack I had bought about 15 yrs ago for the kids. Guess Ill save it for the Grand kids.

I had erectors sets and a race track, this one I put away was 229.00 I hate to see what they are now.
It was disassembling the controllers, hooking one end to a lightbulb and the other to the wall outlet that got me in the repair business, that and the fear of parents finding out. :lol:

What up mofos?

DancesWithWeeds · Oct 19, 2018

My dad bought me an Erector Set when I was maybe 9 or 10. I didn't get to keep what I built. When it was finished it was taken apart and all the parts put back in their place. I had to make something new every time. That's why it is so easy to just pick something up and make something with it (with a little thought).

I mentioned it in another thread. Wife got hit by a semi truck on her way home from work. Ran her out if the road and hit a concrete and steel grate type thing.

She got hurt pretty bad. Messed her back up and broke some ribs.

She is just now getting up and walking a bit.

Fuck. I can't like that, but I'm so glad that it wasn't worse. Happy she's got a strong guy like you to take care of her, missed you around here...

I haven't had a lot of time. It's been a rough year.

The worst is the driver stopped and called 911. Police either didn't believe my wife or didn't want to do thier job.

They didn't investigate very much and destroyed what little evidence they had. Refused to give us the driver's name. Refused to put his name and witness statement in the report.

It's a mess.

Don't get me wrong. I'm thankful she didn't die and it wasn't worse. Thing is it's a car we have had for years. 300,000+ miles on it. I just got done putting about $3000 in brand new suspension, steering, bushings, axles, tires and the works. It was brand new underneath. It was the one I showed the pics of the carpet I dyed and center console I painted. I just finished the body work and was fixing to paint it.

Meh. It's just money. I'm glad I didn't lose my best friend. May sound cheesy but she is my soul mate. My true love. It would be hard to continue without her.

What has your insurance carrier said? Is the other side submitting a claim to your carrier for property damage? Weird scenario. Glad she's recovering.

This is all that really matters, the rest is just metal and plastic.

Great to have you back Wbb.

My insurance believes us. Might be able to make a claim against our uninsured/ underinsured coverage.

No claim from the other guy. No info. He is a ghost. I do have the number the guy used to call 911. Goes back to Cingular days and was disconnected the day after the wreck. I searched for days on the webz and even used a couple pay for info sites and still couldn't get the info. Working on getting a subpoena to get records from the carrier.
