Funny Time -
My neighbor found out her dog could hardly hear so she took it to the
veterinarian. He found that the problem was hair in its ears.
He cleaned both ears and the dog could hear fine.
The vet then proceeded to tell the lady that if she
wanted to keep this from reoccurring she should go to the store and get
some 'Nair' hair remover and rub it in the dog's ears once a month.
The lady goes to the drug store and gets some
'Nair' hair remover.
At the register, the druggist tells her, 'If you're going to use this under your arms don't use deodorant for a few days.'
The lady says: 'I'm not using it under my arms.'
The druggist says: 'If you're using it on your legs don't shave for a couple of days.'
The lady says: 'I'm not using it on my legs either, if you must know, I'm using it on my schnauzer.'
The druggist says: 'Stay off your bicycle for a week.'

ok....NEW HOUSE PROBLEM #1:
I have a large window that is on the east side of the house in my bedroom. I close the curtains every night when we sleep....however....every morning at 7am I get woken up by the BRIGHT *** sun shining through my curtains and in my face! I always think I have over slept because it is so bright outside then I look at my watch to see that it is still early in the morning...I didn't know it got light so early now...my other house's bedroom had one small window and it was always very dark.....It think its time to invest in some thicker curtains!

You might want to think about blinds of some kind. Consider yourself lucky. I don't think I have seen the sun since I left Florida last Saturday.

Nah, between work (60 hours a week), my upcoming Daughter's Wedding (next Saturday) and my latest problem (trying to return my 05 Saturn Ion 1 as its lease is up next Friday) I have been busier than a one legged man in a @ss kicking contest.

Well, I am finally taking the hood plunge. I took the factory hood off for the drive up to Ft. Wayne to get the new hood painted and fitted to the car this week. It will be the like the red 67 style in the picture.
I originally wanted the KR style (like the black one in the pic) but the stripes would have to be painted, which would mean that the entire car would have to have (eventually) the remaining stripes painted. And the more I look at the 67 (Mystery 7) I think it looks more aggressive.
It is going to be a LONG week.

I ordered a pair of radiator cover extensions to cover the area on the sides of the cover, getting those in the same molded black as the stock radiator cover. It will come with a plug to cover up the area where the prop rod would be.

Guy's I can personally vouch for the durability of the CDC chin spoiler. Tonight coming home from Iowa, I was on the Interstate, one exit from the jungle and traveling about 80 mph trapped in traffic and there it was, the mangled torso of a large deer! no where to go but over it ! the impact felt like I tore the front out of the car when I got home the only thing I found was the spoiler pulled down off of the bumper lip and the smell of burning deer guts on the exhaust system. I disconnected one end of spoiler and reattached it, absolutely no signs of getting hit! and headed for the car wash! the bottom of the Stang looks like a slaughter house. Going to put it up on jack stands tomorrow and hit it hard with the power washer and look for any damage!.......Wow! I just noticed topgun is a moderator....man thats like letting the Fox watch the hen house..

MADISON, Wis. - Two children and their mother lived for about two months with the decaying body of a 90-year-old woman on the toilet of their home's only bathroom, on the advice of a religious "superior" who claimed the corpse would come back to life, authorities said Friday.
The children - a 15-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy - cried hysterically Wednesday after a deputy who came to their Necedah home looking for Magdeline Alvina Middlesworth ordered them out because of the stench from her body.
The children were in foster care Friday. Their mother, Tammy Lewis, and self-described "bishop" Alan Bushey remained in custody on felony counts of being a party to causing mental harm to a child.
"It's a sad case, and we'll continue to investigate it and try to ascertain just what occurred up there," Juneau County Sheriff Brent Oleson said. He said he had no further information on Bushey's religious affiliation.
According to the criminal complaint, Middlesworth's sister called sheriff's officials Wednesday and asked them to go to the home about 80 miles north of Madison to check on the woman, who had not been heard from for some time.
When Deputy Leigh Neville-Neil arrived at the house, she encountered Lewis, also known as Sister Mary Bernadett, the complaint said. Lewis, 35, initially refused to allow the deputy to check on Middlesworth, telling her that Middlesworth was on vacation and saying she had to check with her "superior" first.
But she eventually let the deputy in. The house smelled of incense and burned wood, and had religious materials everywhere and hymns playing on the stereo, according to the complaint.
When the deputy opened the last closed door, she smelled "decaying matter" and noticed something piled on what appeared to be a toilet. Lewis told her it was Middlesworth's body, the complaint said.
Lewis told the deputy that Middlesworth had died about two months earlier, but that God told her Middlesworth would come to life if she prayed hard enough.
She said she couldn't say anything more until she spoke with her "superior" - Bushey, 57, also known as Bishop John Peter Bushey.
When Bushey (pronounced "boo-SHAY") arrived, Lewis told the deputy that Middlesworth had appeared to pass out as Lewis helped her into her underwear.
She said she propped Middlesworth on the toilet and left the room to call Bushey, who told her to leave the woman alone and pray for her, the complaint said. He said he had received signs that God would raise her from the dead with a miracle.
Lewis went on to say she thought Middlesworth was still breathing when she put her on the toilet and called Bushey, instead of an ambulance. She later told a detective she put the woman on the toilet on March 4.
An autopsy has been performed, but results won't be available for some time, Oleson said.
"At this time we don't know what the cause of death was," he said. "Quite frankly, it might have been natural causes."
He described the one-story home in the town of Necedah as in decent repair, although the residents had been using "makeshift" toilet facilities because of the situation in the one bathroom.
The boy at the house told a detective he had considered running away because he was uncomfortable with the situation. He said Bushey told him that demons were trying to make it look as if Middlesworth wouldn't come back to life, and that if she were to be discovered he and the girl would have to go to public school and get jobs because Middlesworth paid the bills.
The boy referred to Middlesworth as "grandmother," the complaint said.
Oleson said Middlesworth was unrelated to Bushey.
"She believed in the same faith as self-proclaimed Bishop Bushey, and that was the connection there," he said.
Oleson said that Middlesworth and Lewis lived at the residence with the children since fall of 2004, and that Bushey lived elsewhere.
Bushey and Lewis are scheduled to make an initial court appearance May 19. Aside from the felony counts, Lewis also was charged with obstructing an officer, a misdemeanor.
The sheriff said cash bond was set Friday at $50,000 each, but Lewis was allowed to post 10 percent for her release.
Computerized state court records had no attorney listed for either suspect on Friday.

I used a 5 amp for now since I had that available, but it might actually be a bit high, may need to back that down to a 2 or 3. I'll fiddle with it sometime soon here, maybe tomorrow. I figure it shouldn't draw much more than 1 amp or so anyway if even that much, so a 3 should do the trick.
I ordered a pair of radiator cover extensions to cover the area on the sides of the cover, getting those in the same molded black as the stock radiator cover. It will come with a plug to cover up the area where the prop rod would be.

Hey Justin,
Well finished up my mirror install last night and I used a 2 amp fuse and it works fine so far. Time will tell.

ok....NEW HOUSE PROBLEM #1:
I have a large window that is on the east side of the house in my bedroom. I close the curtains every night when we sleep....however....every morning at 7am I get woken up by the BRIGHT *** sun shining through my curtains and in my face! I always think I have over slept because it is so bright outside then I look at my watch to see that it is still early in the morning...I didn't know it got light so early now...my other house's bedroom had one small window and it was always very dark.....It think its time to invest in some thicker curtains!
