MMMMM .. Tri Tip Goood. Beautiful afternoon for a BBQ. :D


Speaking of BBQ, I went to Menards to get the gallon jugs of Sweet Baby Ray's sauce, and they are discontinuing it... They were sold out, but they looked up what local stores still had some here, and the other one that I go to was supposed to have 4 jugs... I went there and nothing.... :mad:

So I go to another store and they were only 20 blocks off of where they told me that it was... But when I went back to the right one, they had 8 jugs left... :thumbsup:

Then the one in Hodgkins was supposed to have 4 jkugs, and I get there and nada... Nothing... Zip... :BangHead:

Apparently two of the stores have trouble keeping track of their inventory.... :wtf:
 
You need to get a slot car set and go oval track racing in your living room!
Well there's no drag racing until March Meet unless I go To Pomona for the Winternationals. I gotta take my horsepower fixes where I can get'em. Did I mention it was 73* this afternoon?
 
He is doing great, he got married to a very sweet lady , they drag race together and trail ride up in the mountains of Colorado


Thanks, I just saw a old post of his and wondered where he went.


Speaking of that, I got some bad news....

If any of you remember Cliff (Old Tired Rebel), he passed away about a year ago...

His wife just passed away yesterday of a heart attack...

I talked with his middle son for a while today... He was trying to get a hold of me all night while I was at work yesterday and wasn't available to answer the phone when I got off work this morning...

Bill PM'ed Martin and I the news yesterday...

Sorry to hear. Never talked to him, but remember his thread 'Green envy'.
 

Yeah and look at the wind chill for Chicago...

The third shift loading lead asked me if I was going to dump the trash dumpster... I said, "I wasn't planning on it as it's so cold out"...

Besides I'm only supposed to dump it once a week according to my lead... I've already dumped it twice this week....

Somebody else can take care of it... I can't be the guy that they dump all the **** jobs on... If I let them, they will do it...

When I went to visit once, we had a bbq and Mary and I cooked a bunch of food and fed about 12 people and still had some left overs... It was fun cooking with Mary, without her I wouldn't have been able to make all that food... Burgers, hot dogs, ribs... I covered the inside food, and she took care of the grille outside...

Mary didn't allow anybody in her kitchen, but I earned the privilege to cook with her after that... I was allowed in her kitchen...

So, got new tires for my Truck. Bridgstone Durivis, any how, My truck has tire pressure sensors on all 6 wheels. When Discount mounted the tires, two inner rear wheels failed the TPS reset. HMMMM. So they installed aftermarket sensors, which I thought was the end of the issue. NOT. Yesterday back from Santa Maria with trailer, both inside TPS were failing, then coming back on, the whole trip! Go to Ford, those TPS are a wear item, they said! WTF? Anyway the wont warranty them, two new Ford TPS, 86.00 each! HOPE it is fixed now!!!! The question I had for Ford was why only the inside sensors failed? Simple answer...Those wheels are steel, the rest are aluminum and I was very careful to make sure the did not scratch the wheels, they used kid gloves on them. BUT, the steel wheels not so much, and the shock of slamming them on the tire machine caused them to fail! Crazy....

That's one of the reasons I don't care to drive new cars... :steering:

Too much technology to go wrong... :realcrazy:

Give me an old car from 67 - 72 for a daily driver and I'm a happy guy... :steering: :D

I loved driving my 68 fastback to work everyday for 7 years and getting it from 180 k to 500 k miles... :thumbsup:
 
Sounds like U.P. is paying you a little visit.
How low did it get last night or early this AM ?

We've had some cold and good winds... Nothing like single digits and 20 - 30 MPH winds.... :wtf:

We need to get 3 to 4 layers of clothes on to keep warm...

I just bought a cool hat with the ear flaps today... Two people already commented on it while I was running around today... :D

And ya never missed the TPS telling you the right rear only had 32 rather than 34, didja?
 
I get Ray's at Costco. Good stuff.

I cancelled my Costco membership when they stopped carrying the baked wings... I loved those... They kept them in the back near the rotisserie chicken... Nice big wings at a good price... They should have marketed them better... They would be in high demand for a good Super Bowl party etc...

Plus they have had road construction at the one closest to me and traffic getting in and out of there sucks...
