    Maybe not, but there’s a bunch over the years that have— there’s a graveyard in Arlington and a couple over in France and a ####load in Southeast Asia that don’t have no names and some in Afghanistan and Iraq… never mind

    PM me and we will discuss. Good idea. All my money, and insurance, final stuff has been set with the girls for some time.
    A good thought. Thank you

    Head on with a Cadillac on my bike just outside of Miramar.

    Saw buildings. Saw stars. Saw buildings. Saw stars.

    Hit the pavement. That hurt. No, really, it hurt.

    Crumpled up in a pretzel, wiggled my fingers and toes....... thought," Right on. Not paralyzed. They can fix the rest."

    No— every kid in Filer learn’t how on an 84 Chebby 3/4 ton PU that was purchased for $600 at the canal company auction— they all learn’t how an internal combustion engine works as well—what they do with the knowledge is up to them, but they was learn’t

    I don't need no safety. I don't even drive trucks.
