JohnJ Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Got a question, you're at a Stop sign. The road bisecting the road you're on is a state highway heading out of town. Don't know the speed limit but vehicles are going 45 to 70+ mph on it all day long. Do you look both ways before you turn or cross the hwy? Or possibly look the direction of the closest lane then the other then a quick glance towards the closest lane again? Could have taken pics but when a big 3/4 ton 4 door long bed pickup t-bones another and puts it off the road you understand I'm sure. Almost two years here and I still don't know how these xxxxx have lived this long. At least ten of these wrecks, always the same m o. All directions closed for three hours. Tow trucks waited an hour or so to get to work. Means only one thing. RIP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tell whoever picks up the phone at the shop "It's time for a lap dance." They ALL know it's me and start laffin. "Hey Joy, Dave needs a lap dance." I'll ALWAYS have room on my dance card for her and she knows it. lol 😂 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down here, they can strip a whitetail posthaste. Crafty and intelligent until, get too close to a wolf kill. Heard a pack a couple weeks ago. My wife and I were leaving a business in a small rural town in Minnesota that our business cleans and it was about 7pm. Could hear them in the distance. Then some of the dogs in the area joined in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was young and strong I had a bike that the guys & gals on Main St, Daytona would not heckle me over. 84 V-65 Magna, good machine, fast six speed. So I know about looking up, over, around and all that. Pine needles on a 90 degree turn at 45 mph on a 640lb bike was enough to wake me up when I was learning. The dunlops were no match for that quarter inch of needles all over that intersection where the Rockefeller's House was. Didn't drop it but I know someone out there saw me win that fight! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 slippin' and slidin' boy got his first lesson in driving on snow yesterday. Spun out his truck... well... a 180`.. "I was only driving 30 - 35mph" on a winding road. The speed limit is 35. I wasn't terribly sympathetic. "You know snow is slippery"... He didn't get hurt and his truck is OK.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea man, all us guys have to learn stuff in a tactile fashion! Like "that thing that turns red with the pots and pans on top? It's hot, don't touch it." I learned about that and aloe-vera the same day sometime around kindergarten. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 No donuts here today unless you're into playin in the water. Started about noon and hasn't slowed down. 40-50mph winds coming along with it at some point. Think I"ll blow tonight off and stay home. The guys are playing at a local club and I don't feel like dealing with it. lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 We had tornado warnings and shelter in place at work... Very heavy rain and high wind. By 3:30 it was sunny and the roads were dry. Pretty gusty out, but clear. Will be a little cooler over the weekend but very nice. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
