    Just messing with you guys. Neither side is gonna give in or even attempt to see the other persons side. If I were in Arkansas, I take 59 out for a couple of beers after we punched the hell out of each other in the parking lot. :)

    But but, your Voice Mail Message said, you've gone fishing, banjo playing, and hunting Fudgepackers and Razorbacks.

    The VM also stated you wouldn't be home for another 6 months, to supervise the building of your state of the art banjo recording studio. All a front to not confirm current construction of your Ozark Retirement dream home?

    A word of advice: Don't walk those forest trails, without a partner, a couple AR-15s. Short Barrel Mossberg's, a few Bowie Knives, a brush clearing blade, and a dozen grenades.......

    If you need to call an air strike, I can do as much for you....!!!

    Or a model T, with the hand crank.

    Rick sold that Model T, in 1980 for both A Gremlin, and a Pinto, (which has a Vega Body, with Pinto chassis et al). At one time Rick also owned a Rambler with a bumper sticker "God Bless Hillary".

    I prefer the Pacer because of that living in a glass house look.

    ...yup, the Pacer was another odd car by American Motors.

    ...I had a 1970 Javelin AMX. Very light and scary fast. The company was struggling to stay afloat back then and by that time they were using other companies' components. My AMX came from the factory with a Ford 390 engine...and a Chrysler transmission. (pistol grip shifter)(I think it was the same tranny set up as the Barracuda)

    My 1st car was a 1966 Lincoln Continental with the suicide doors. I loved that car. It was a gas eater though, it cost me around $12.00 to fill it up.

    ...I swear I can remember the "gas wars" in Florida when I was a kid....I vividly recall gas being $.22 per gallon.

    I recall .50 cent gas because I remember dad saying one time...down to my last dollar, just enough for a gasllon of gas and a pack of smokes.

    And I've lived to see $5/gallon (premium). Fortunately that is back to $3.29......
