    That’s the one! Build that truck and drive it. Do a little bodywork and clear coat it the way it is, so that it looks original and unrestored

    He wasn’t a Man. A Man doesn’t shake hands sitting down. A Man doesn’t give limp-wrist handshakes either. If you carry yourself as a Man, a Man WILL give you the respect of a Man. If he cannot, it is because he isn’t a Man. Doesn’t mean that you have to be friends or even like each other, but a Man will still show you respect.

    Lost my dad in 2003, on my daughter’s birthday. So kind of a bitter sweet day. What I wouldn’t give to have one more opportunity to drown a few worms, have some cold ones and just sit there and LISTEN to what words of wisdom he would try to impart on me.

    Lord I miss him each and everyday.

    I know what you mean. So many questions I'd like to ask Dad and Mom ,lost her in 2012. Both my grandfather's died before I was born. All of Dad's and Mom's brothers and sisters are gone also. Thing's I never thought to ask them when they were here , because you just think they'll be around forever.

    I tried it, but I guess I’m to old, set in my ways and jaded — way I see it, we start out thinking we’re bulletproof— then after awhile being bulletproof and invisible is money— and then when the Grandcritters hit the deck we turn into a pile of chocolate mess — add a couple of Griff pups into the mix and nobody recognizes you anymore— that’s what I see as success

    All you need to do is practice what my mother taught me...the art of selective hearing. I use it on my wife all the time. :)
