Re: Someone Please talk me down from the ledge....

No Dean, sorry; the only course of treatment is to let the disease run its course. Some of the side effects can be effectively managed with cathartic rants here and on the other forums. Also liberal application of spirits can bring some relief. I am afraid however that once you've been exposed recov...

Another sighting of an M37 in a film

This may have been posted by others in the past, but I never noticed it before. The film is Mr. Roberts and the M37 is on the dock next to the ship when one of the crewmen attempts to bring a goat on board. I always thought those squids were a bit odd.

Re: Laughter is the Best Medicine.....

My dear wife sent me this while I was at the shop, I thought you lot would enjoy it. It certainly made me chuckle. A man was telling his buddy: "You won't believe what happened last night." My daughter walked into the living room and said: "Dad, cancel my allowance, forget my college ...

Re: "Wild Bill" Guarnere dies at 90...

He was one tough old bird. I was privileged to hear him speak at a museum in Maryland along with Studs Terkel. It made for a very entertaining afternoon. He'll certainly be missed.

Re: 230/251 Exhaust Manifold

The 251 block is two inches longer than the 230 and as such is the case, renders the manifolds non-interchangeable.

Re: Laughter is the Best Medicine.....

I heard this one in a pub last night. Silvio, an 80-year-old Italian goes to the doctor for a check-up. The doctor is amazed at what good shape the guy is in and asks, 'How do you stay in such great physical condition?' I'm Italian and I am a golfer and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well...

Re: Complaint Department!!

Boy Tim, I know what you mean. Why just this morning I had to put a sweater over my T-shirt just to get the paper off the lawn. :D Seriously though, we could definitely use some rain. We get a few scattered showers and that's about it. California is in a drought but I still hear from the city if I l...

Tony, I realized my email didn't cover it. Now that I'm at my desk I can do somewhat better.
Her's a link to a photo that shows the underside with the attachments.

Re: MVPA FORUM...

Thanks for the update, Bob-I was wondering about Kurt the other day. I still recall the three of us meeting so many years back and you guys helped me out with so many M37 parts-still much appreciated years later! :) Gary I remember that meeting. It was you and your very tolerant wife as I recall. P...

Re: MVPA FORUM...

I spoke to Kurt a couple months ago. He has divested himself of M37s and PWs and begun hanging about with that unsavory Jeep crowd. He still checks in at Joe's forum every so often. It's kind of an odd feeling you get when someone moves on to something different. It's a bit like running into an old ...
