Thanks Frank. I'm turnin' the "BIG Double Nickel". Now I can order off the "Senior Menu". Yeah, 55 candles would set off the smoke alarm for sure. I kinda like the RichardCranium 'handle', and it sure is hard to keep him under control around here sometimes. It's just soooo tempting to let him out, but I don't wanna get "Banned" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]. Thanks again, OkieGringo akaBajaGringo aka [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bleh.gif[/img]RichardCranium

Thanks guys. Today I have to set the new mailbox post in concrete, drive the Jeep CJ-5 to Motor Vehicle Dept, and then try a new program in the tranny computer(fine tuning shift points). Such is a "retirement" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]Okie/BajaGringo/RichardCranium
Yes, Bappy B-day, And thanks for all the input, Richard...

I'll join in on this. Happy Birthday, Kid. Now you can join AARP. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] There are all kinds of good benefits.
Don't let all these young guys make fun of us older guys. Stand up and defend us, while I go take a lie-down.

I've been waiting to join the AARP, and I'll probably do it. These young "whipper snappers" around here ain't got nuthin' on us old timers. I can stay up as late as I want, and get outta bed whenever I want. My neighbor just bought a new chebby diesel duallie CC with 6 sp allison trans. He hauls trailers around the country fo a livin'. When he's home he's always mocking me about having to work on my old Ford. I tell him "Yeah, but at least I don't have to drive all over creation just to pay for it." He hates me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img], but we're friends and help each other with 2-man jobs. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]OkieGringo
Howdy Mel, do you mean that e-mail from "The Rabble Rousers Site" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]? Yes, I got it. Thanks. I've joined "that other site" also, but these whipper snappers over here need me and I only have time for one "Internet Mistress" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img], and "Management" is already jealous of the the "Mistress" I have.
