The Home Board

I hope you get it sorted out, Jim! I had ONE episode of that several months ago. Went from slightly dizzy to VERY dizzy to flat on my back on the floor wondering what the hell just happened all in about 10 seconds. The daughter of the friend I was visiting at the time happened to be there and is an ...

Nope, but it could pretty easily be my Dad!

Thanks. Here's a shot of it "planted" on the diorama.

Shotgun for weasels and porkies on the ground, .22 or .22 Mag for porkies in trees.

I have been trying to sell a 2003 BMW K1200RS for Dale the Builder for a couple of seasons now. He decided to have me take care of a couple of issues with the it, hoping to improve the chances of selling it. One was the rear brake lever. It was severely bent and appeared to be cracked. A new one is ...
