  1. I am not saying they should but from a salary viewpoint it seems easy. I think they would be on the hook for one game of a veteran minimum salary which is less than 100K. cheap
  2. A few thoughts. I learned way to late that he was actually my 6th or 7th cousin. Never met him but wish I could have. My twin brother did meet him in college. He was at a small private college in Alabama eating breakfast and Carter walked up and said he was running for president. No idea why he chose that time and location but it goes to show that you had to cover a lot of bases to run for president. RIP and thanks for showing us what it means to care.
  3. why are you cutting the subframe?
  4. guess what. they came back and took 12 bags last night after dinner. Really puzzled on this. Maybe I can get them to bag the leaves the next time
  5. Had that happen once in a business session with IBM. I lived in Austin but traveled all over as a subject expert. I think it was in Chicago that some clown from the customer heard I was from Austin and started talking crap about Texas immediately. Had to point our that I went to Auburn to shut him up. Never had that happen the first 15 years at IBM when I was meeting with folks from Alabama. We always had a professional meeting
  6. Whats the backstory of Snoopy on the dial?
  7. Did I miss something? What was the need for two new engines?
  8. Gonna need a new left hip from the added weight on that side of the body
  9. Liked them until i saw the open back. Old school so no way
  10. Someone "stole" 7 lawn bags of old leaves from in front of my house. Maybe "stole" isn't correct but i collected the leaves and, after lunch, put 8 bags on the street for pickup tomorrow . Walked out an hour ago and only one is still there. No clue what someone plans to do with them
  11. It' going to be contest to see which is tougher - the meat or the cutting board
  12. Had a friend do this with socks. Except we worked for IBM and it was business suits only. He put on red hunting socks by accident
  13. You sure? He got the touchdown because the goal line is extended past the pylon. Seems logical that a fumble would have the same extended goaline and be a touchback. Not going to try to look this one up. No clue how to create a search question with an extended goal line
  14. To be fair - I thought that was the rule also. Maybe it is in the NFL but who cares now. However I kept wondering how they chose the one yard line. No where close to where it would be if the rule was what I thought. About the 5 inch line
  15. The definition of Behind Enemy Lines
  16. Might want to check on that ... I think with American it is bigger seat but coach meals. But that might be premium economy. They keep changing the name and I quit travelling when I retired
  17. Possession is 9/10 of the law. Congrats on your new car.
  18. Totally avoid number 1. You probably are aware that salvage titles make it difficult to get rid of later on. Also your insurance may not work.
  19. And forgot to add - can't do the carpet until I get the car back. Probably end of year so I get to do this in cold garage
  20. And more fun to come for the MGA. Otherwise known as carpet. And whatever you think you know from American cars - the British have a totally different idea. A two seat roadster has about 18 different pieces - and that is just to get to the back shelf. It doesn't cover it. Some are glued in and some use lift the dots fasteners. Of course Moss Motors sent me the pieces. You have to install the fasteners. As a very knowledgeable person on the MGA forum put it - no one includes instructions any more since you might mess up and demand a new set. The new versions of the carpet do not have sown edges - you get to trim as needed. This is totally different than my first MGA. Carpet took about half a day and a staple gun. The garage warned me that they usually needed about 15 hours to do it right. Grrrr.....
  21. Not that it is really relevant but getting a long term care policy helps a lot. Mom's paid for this.
  22. That is about what I paid Paint jobs are outrageous now. I could have gotten it cheaper back home but I really liked the idea that the body shop was a few blocks from the garage doing the work. I did not want to be in the middle after getting it back home and finding any issues. Kidded that inflation from when Dad painted it in our garage in early 80's really increased the cost. In reality everything associated with paint is different now. I like your color scheme of black and red but still partial to Iris Blue. Looking at your dash - kinda going Rainman here. Below the gas guage - is that the seldom seen washer control?
