Mushrooms

These little claws are great.  sometimes you can’t always see or get the claw exactly where you need it. For situations like these I made an attachment that goes on the end of my shop vac hose.  It’s basically a milk jug lid with a small hole cut in it.  I then attached a decent length of 1/8" diameter semi-rigid…

These are great. I use them at work every day for attaching dial indicators. That little adjustable elbow in the middle is so handy.

Race Drivin’ was the best for exactly that reason. Other games had manual shifting, but from my memory, this was the only game that had a clutch pedal.  I still can’t think of another arcade game that incorporates the third pedal.

I struggle with imagining who would buy this. Private party kbb value on one of these that hasn’t been ruined is under $1000.  Why would I pay 5-1/2 times what a car is worth because it has been made useless?  I might give this person $300 just so I could give this car to my sister-in-law in hopes that she will use it…

I had a convertible Sebring and put a system in it, because I put a system in every car I had regardless of how crappy it was.  With the 12" subs in the trunk, all it did was rattle the trunk. The sound inside was terrible, so I moved the box to the back seat :)  The air from the ports would actually blow your hair…

Love the Viffer.  They are such very good bikes. 

I know you’re not supposed to covet your neighbor’s ass, but I’m jealous AF. What a nice daily. If I had one, you wouldn’t get me out of it except to refuel.

Your dad wins.  It’s not even a contest.  That has to be the most impractical daily driver you could imagine. 

I don’t get the issue either.  My wife had a Fiesta sedan for a couple of years.  Because I’m a big dude, the seat and surrounding area were a bit tight for my liking, but we did not really have issues with packing.  We would fit whole loads of groceries in the trunk.  Also, the wife, kid, and I would go on road trips…

Definitely, for sure, the ‘88 GMC conversion van.  It was great to take camping and tailgating, but it really wasn’t a practical daily driver.  Also, bonus points for taking a driving test in it.  The evaluating officer couldn’t believe I was serious about testing in that thing. 

Probably not much. It would easily blow away in the wind, or someone would walk by and steal it. 

A lot of people still love minivans. I know it’s purely anecdotal, but they almost haven’t dropped in popularity. Just as often as I see a sedan I’ll se a Sienna, Pacifica, or Odyssey. And for good reason too. Plenty of people need to haul a big family and need the cargo space, but loathe the high entry points and low…

No, but a painted steel roof with a little heat under it will do this every time. 

Oh oh, I have another one. I was out of town visiting my cousin in Kokomo. It was cold and snowy. I ended up getting there late and didn’t realize he had National Guard duty the next day. So I went to hang out with his friend we’ll call Paul. I told Paul I brought some fine quality blotter with me, so we both dropped…

I was driving to my cousin’s house in Kokomo, IN, on 465N.  It’s four or five lanes, I don’t remember.  But I was in the second-to-right lane, speeding.  I don’t know where he came from, but a cop in an unmarked maroon Crown Vic pulled up into the left lane adjacent my car.  He flashed the lights hidden behind the…

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. I had a similar issue where I was doing alittle over a hundo down the highway when I saw a city kitty shooting radar. I stood on the brakes as hard as I could, but I was toast. I barely got it under 100 when he clocked me. He wrote it down for 90 though. I had a summons, but had to…

I’ve got a few, but the one of the most nervous was this story: I was riding shotgun in my friend’s car. He was perpetually broke and we were about to go on a route, but were almost out of gas. Neither one of us had a dime to spend. He pulled into a gas station with the car parked at an outside pump, facing the exit.…

Oh, so for the comedy of it all? That's a little more understandable. 

Low T?
