    Vinyl; who's got it and how much?

    I convinced my wife many moons ago that we didn't need to get rid of all the old records, and am now pretty glad. Got a lot of really old stuff, and maybe 250 records. Still sounds great and still have the old Sanyo Direct Drive with the diamond needle, LOL! Wide variety of content, but...

    A brush with disaster...

    I've visited the Outer Banks of NC, specifically Hatteras Island, since my parents and grandparents first took me there in 1967 when I was 4. I took my (then future) wife there for the first time in 1988. We have had a few vehicles for beach use, but my favorite is our 2005 Excursion V10...

    Student loan spam calls?

    3 so far today. I graduated in 1985, LOLOL! And, never took a loan. I've had these for a while now and ordinarily just hang up, but took the time to speak with "Lisa" today and politely request they add me to their no contact list. We'll see how that works out, but not going to hold my...

    PSA - Family first

    I don't often post original threads, but I thought it might be useful to others. It's very personal, but here it goes. ____________________ It's sometimes funny how things coalesce. By the way, if you are a smoker, please consider stopping. Now. I'm still smoking, because I am an idiot...

    Snarling, farting airplanes, LOL!

    Well, not gonna complain about it, because there's nothing I can do to change it, but I am curious. We are under a regular flight path for RIC airport, and that's not a problem. We are also very close to Chesterfield County Airport (Richmond Executive, LOL!) and on weekends, locals take to the...

    Broken lawn tractor - low compression

    Long story short, we inherited a lawn tractor a couple of years ago. 42" Lowes tractor with a 14 hp Briggs OHV. We had tremendous fun, as I've never had anything but a push mower, and we have just over an acre, LOL! Last spring, I was working in the back yard when my wife came to me and said...

    Rolex 24 at Daytona

    Well, I'm not watching anymore. Not by choice; it turns out Comcast doesn't offer FS2 in my area. Pretty pissed off right now, and can't find a stream yet. Any suggestions, other than ditch SUXFinity? Edit: Found one. Xfinity still blows balls.

    Treynor gets it done!

    Probably already posted, but worthy of going again. Ben, we've never met, but I'm pretty sure I love you; no homo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIj9VvbVVMM First couple of runs though; don't haze the tires bro! It's fun but it ain't fast, LOL!

    Affordable health care? Not if you smoke

    Clicky I guess it pays to read the fine print. I haven't read the entire thing myself, but I am surprised that this is "news" only now.

    New Cowboy Boots!

    Hopefully, NOT a repost Bert always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home. Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife, "Notice anything different about me?" Margaret looked him over. "Nope."...

    Surgery?

    A sexually active middle aged woman informed her plastic surgeon that she wanted her vaginal lips reduced in size because, over the years they have become loose and floppy. Out of embarrassment, she insisted that the surgery be kept secret and, of course, the surgeon agreed. Awakening from...

    Holy prostitutes?

    A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway when he notices a sign out of the corner of his eye. It reads: SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION - 10 MILES He thinks this is a figment of his imagination and drives on without a second thought. Soon he sees another sign...

    Blood pressure

    First, I haven't felt the need to see a doctor since early 2009, and am generally healthy as a horse. Yesterday, I went in because of a massive sinus infection; head feels like a balloon, and can't breathe at all through my left sinus. NP spent little time on the sinus and ruled it as viral...

    Dealership shenanigans; say it ain't so

    Thought you all might appreciate this. I just pulled the battery from my Bronco to put it on charge because it's been sitting for several months. My wife saw this and asked me if I could please check her battery. When I asked why, it turns out she was at the dealer for an oil change, and was...
