    A different approach to the C3

    I know what you mean Gordon. You see what I pull. This trailer is 42 foot and 6000 pounds EMPTY!

I went to a Chevy 2500HD 6.5 Turbo Diesel and that was a major improvement...

    Let me back in!

    I am over 50, and the Armed Forces thinks I'm too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 34 to join the military. They've got the whole thing backwards. Instead of sending 18-year-olds off to fight, they ought to take us old guys. You shouldn't even be able to join a military unit...

    Repairing the Country...

    The election is over. It is time to repair friendships with the other party. Governor Sarah Palin is doing her part to do just that. The rest of the world cannot understand how, after bitter election campaigns, American politicians can kiss and make-up. This should serve as an example of...

    Get This!!

    John was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmick - he'd buy anything 'new' or just unusual. His wife Marsha had long ago given up trying to get him to change. One day, John came home with another of his purchases - a robot that John claimed was a lie detector. It was...

    Funny....

    When I was younger I hated going to weddings. It seemed that all of my aunts and the grandmotherly types used to come up to me, poke me in the ribs and cackle, telling me, "YOU'RE NEXT." They stopped that after I started doing the same thing to them...... AT...
