When I was in college a friend decided to get into snowmobiling. He hit a rock on our first trip together and bent a trailing arm. The next time I saw the sled he brought it over to see what I thought of his repair. he had āmostlyā straightened itā¦ and wrapped it with apposing angle iron attached with hose clamps @ 2-3 inches o.c. I helped him replace itā¦ but I kept his āfixedā one and hung it on my wall. I have moved a couple of times sinceā¦ I am going to try and find it and get it back up on the wall!!
He is building houses in Alaska now.

Is there a way to hide a post from a specific memberā¦ I am worried Jim will see this and realize I have been telling stories about him.

I got myself into trouble with this this morningā¦ My wife is constantly trying to get rid of my scrap metalā¦ I have a bunch of old bed frames she tried to throw away the other day. I found them and put them somewhere elseā¦ anyway itās a constant battle. So, when I saw this last night I thought she would get a laugh out of it. I showed it to her this morningā¦ no laugh, no smile, she looks at me with a stern look and asksā¦ Which one am I? I said, itās a jokeā¦ 
she said I know it is, but which one am Iā¦ Which one am I? She just kept asking ā¦I had just woken up and I didnāt know how to answerā¦ had I had a second or two to think about it I could have said itās the same girlā¦ thatās not what I didā¦ I pointed to the OLD rusty scrap metal girl.

My wife was looking at a new SUV. Well, the fast-talking salesman said she looked good in it. The first thing she said to me was he thinks I look good in this. I said of course he does. Now, if I had told her that, it would have gone in one ear and out the other.
Well, we pick it up this week.
