  1. If you're really using a truck for it's intended use, and I realize about 4% of buyers are, then the more sidewall the better. The look on the sales manager's face when I asked to trade for 2" smaller wheels was unforgettable. But what he did forget was to swap the spare, too. Realized that when I got back home, 850 miles later.
  2. They ware included in the transportation sector.
  3. Probably should've brushed his teeth a bit more.....

    Jimi

    Steven Stills quote - "I was just trying to figure out what to do next (after Buffalo Springfield). I followed Jimi Hendrix around the country for a year learning how to play lead guitar and he taught me some great things'"
  5. The Stones! Their website resale went live yesterday @ noon, I pulled off the freeway and snagged 4 seats in the 24th row. After saying it for the last 10 to 12 yers, I really think this will be their last tour.
  6. Walnut & Oakland....the Arroyo location is stronger, IMO.
  7. I've been recreating outdoors for a long time....in my experience, many hunters and fisherman don't really have much respect for certain laws, ethics, or the environment.
  8. The sparsely populated areas are due to the many geologically unstable areas....four houses slid into a ravine awhile back. The best lobster that I ever had was taken off of the PV peninsula.
  9. PV is a rough commute to anywhere...it's amazing how remote it is from the rest of socal. But once you're home, the remoteness is quite appreciated, as is the climate. I know many people who have lived in socal their whole life and have never been there.
  10. Calling that house "ocean front" is quite the stretch....waters about a 1/2 mile away. It's a big estate in one of the denser developed areas of PV....still nice, though.
  11. Had my 21st birthday party @ his dad's restaurant in San Pedro, Petros was one of the servers....on the way back north on the Harbor freeway, one of the four cars in our party got picked off by the CHP, and nobody noticed until the unlucky driver called my house requesting us to bail him out. Petros voice may be grating, but he certainly knows what he is talking about. Have never heard him make a statement that caused me to say WTF?
  12. Petros!
  13. Actually two really bad calls....the receiver was standing inbounds when he kicked the pylon, refs called no TD on review. Two plays later the RB had two feet in the end zone, still no TD.
  14. Never heard of Neenach, and I lived in Southern California 65 years. But yeah, the Frazier Park folks can be interesting...
  15. Frazier Park is up in the mountains off of I5, aka 'the grapevine'. Many pine trees, often snows. No desert.
  16. Hmmm...wife and I are on a flight to Munich. By the time we're taxing down the runway, we both have itchy throats, by the time we're airborne, our lungs are itchy. The people behind had put two cats underneath our seats . We are quite allergic to cats. Airlines don't serve peanuts anymore, even though people have a choice what they put in their mouths...but they allow animals that people may be allergic to?
  17. The stores up here in the PNW are claiming that the heat has ruined the harvest, and there will be no roasting here....and I just gave away about 10 pounds of frozen to make room in the freezer.
  18. I read that there were 13 firetrucks for Lanai, Molokai & Maui islands....the tiny island that I live on has that many.
  19. Before I moved up here 2.5 years ago from SoCal I researched the 'darkness' issue...turns out there is more annual light here due to the very long summer days. Wife and I totally love it here. Some of the locals have condos on the east side to escape the gloom, but the grayness is fine with us. We live on an island, and the wind/clouds are part of the charm. The wind knocking down trees, and the trees knocking out the power, not so much. Generac and a 500 gallon propane tank solved that issue.
  20. JFC! Can you guys take the discussion/agrument of the merits of past presidents to a different thread. For three days I've opened this thread to find your ongoing pissing match. 'I don't want to derail this thread' put here's a couple of hundred words of derailment....
  21. What's your interest in Whidbey?
