Feeling kinda funky today... think I may have an irregular heart beat or something. Callin the docs in the morning.......

 

Holy CRAP! Them fellers are EXPENSIVE. Makes me wish I had hung on to my Westphalia...... 10K van now....... I had about 1800 in it......

21st century pricing can be a bit of a shocker. Used to be able to rebuild an engine for about the same price as a gasket set costs today.

Often wondered who they thought was actually collecting those things.

Really? Why? You getting some interesting weather?

 

I'd suspect most of Florida is put in evacuation mode when it rains....

 

Yeah. Fortunately I live on a hill so I'll okay, but I know tomorrow my day will be spent cutting up fallen trees at my parents' house while trying not to drown my truck.

Then there wouldn't be people living in Florida since it rains nearly everyday.
