    Dear CR

    I'm shocked that such a PM would be sent. Just kidding.....I don't give a shit.
  2. I'm no Abraham Lincoln but I have stayed at a Holiday inn......express. I go to a site regularly where the vast majority of the boards political views are completely opposite of mine. I figured that out rather early but instead of meaningless arguments with them I just don't post in those threads. I see no point in it....I'm not changing their minds and they're not changing mine.
  3. I've used an oil less Craftsman for ~ 20 years that's still kicking for whatever that's worth. I will say pay extra to get one that's quieter. Mine will wake the dead when it runs in the garage.
  4. Yeah....those blue ones suck but they're great for stuff that you know they're going to get ruined doing. In the fall I use them to cover our wood pile in camp, throw in garage floor when I'm butchering a deer, and stuff like that.
  5. I see the tarp and blanket in the free gallery. When was the last time you guys saw those in a mailer? The only thing I've saw in a long time has been that blue flashlight.
  6. Sandbridge beach just south of VA beach. We go there for 2 weeks every year. Leaving the 12th for this year's trip. It's pretty much exactly what you described. There's really no shops there...just a couple places to buy beach type stuff so not touristy at all. Way less crowded than VA beach especially through the week. It's about 20 minutes to VA beach so my wife and daughter to up there for the day to get their shopping fix. With 3 kids we do alot of stuff and usually hit the beach in the late afternoon....we have vast stretches of it to ourselves or with very few people around during the week. This was last year.
  7. Another thing is if you don't use it very often you start forgetting things. I tuned my car and 3-4 other cars but haven't really messed with it in several years now. My neighbor bought an f body and I started tuning on his....I was amazed at what I had forgotten. It was almost like starting over again. I do think there's enough info out there where you can read online and learn enough to do it yourself without paying $500 for a class if you're just wanting to do your own cars.
  8. Hate to see that and glad everyone is ok. Like you say...the silver lining is you'll end up with a brand new house. Just have to keep mumbling that through all the bullshit that's in front of you guys.
  9. Let me check with him again. Personally I wouldn't run it but he may want to. Has it been covered at all?
  10. My neighbor wants the stall if you still have it. Got a number he can text you at to set up a pick up or I can pm you his...whatever is easier.

    When my brother was at select I would take him in food since he had no restrictions. Subway, burger King, Bob Evans biscuits/gravy, ECT ECT. My son was in charge of picking out candy. He took my brother in couple full sized Snickers. A year later my brother still has a full size snicker addiction haha....he said it was the best thing he'd ever tasted at the time and it's stuck with him awhile haha

    Glad to hear he's progressing so well. PT will whip his ass back into shape. It's a good kind of work though. My brother was sore as hell but didn't really complain too much because he was just glad to be up and moving. He was in the bed quite a bit longer (3 months) and had more work in front of him. Sounds like Anthony will be headed home shortly which is awesome.

    When my brother was coming out of his he did math constantly haha. He would lay there and mumble numbers the whole time like he was doing math in his head.

    Thanks for all the updates. It's a really long slow shitty road. Have they discussed moving him to a longer term care place yet? My brother went to select down on campus after 6-8 weeks or something like that. Place is older and looked like a shit hole but he got good care there. Feel for all you guys. Still really fresh for me so I completely understand what you guys are going through. It's hard but I can only say to keep positive thoughts. It's tough to see someone you love in that position but just know it can also change really quick and he will start coming out of it.

    He's at a great hospital. The fact they're backing his sedation down is a great sign. OSU is aggressive in general in getting the sedation off. My brother was at mt Carmel east and was sedated for almost 3 months when all was said and done. Just take it a day at a time and like I say....I understand what you guys are going through. He's getting great care and things are progressing the right direction so alot to be positive about.

    Glad to hear things are looking better. Went through something very similar with my older brother last summer. It's a tough thing to go through. Wishing all you guys the best

    Hate to hear this. Hope things go well for him. Keep us updated please.
  21. Those look like bulbs or HID's to you? Fleece is a company that makes a ton of stuff for diesels. I forgot for a minute this only used to be a car site. My bad. Monkey see monkey do moment?
  22. Might want to check fuel pressure while you're at it. GM=fuel pump at some point
  23. Be found someone....not sure who yet. Just left me a voicemail letting me know. Thanks for the suggestions
  24. I might actually be off on the year....I'd have to ask him. Could be a 15. He's already bought the headers and exhaust.
