Today is the 10th. Another 10 days and I will be out of here. In some cities here in China the visibility is down to 10 meters due only to air pollution. Some schools have been cancelled. Where I live I think that there is a clear sky, but can't see it. I can look directly at the sun and only see a brightish blob. It is not even as bright as a full moon. Today even tho it is supposed to be a clear day, cannot even see one mile. Hate this!!!!

That car I was refering to was definitely a Pontiac. Think it had a 9 bolt rear end too. For sure it was a big block. Do remember that on the air filter that in big letters there was either 427 or 426. I wanted to use it as a donor car for a kit car I intended to build. Moved shortly after that, so never did build it.

Wasn't the Cutlass called a 455 or a 454 or a 445 or something like that?

Not going near that Velcro, pom-poms, body in trunk, cheerleaders stuff that Lary and Scotty are talking about.

uh, umm

Spent the day moving a large boat. Luckily all I had to do was drive the truck with the "wide load" sign on it.
Don't know what they meant but I was told I was perfectly suited for the job.
Only thing that went wrong was I ran out of donuts and candy bars.

1845 - British civil engineer Robert Thompson patented the first pneumatic tires.

1851 - American librarian Melvil Dewey was born. He created the "Dewey Decimal Classification" system.

1869 - Women were granted the right to vote in the Wyoming Territory.

1898 - A treaty was signed in Paris that officially ended the Spanish-American War. Also, Cuba became independent of Spain.

1906 - U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt became the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, for helping mediate an end to the Russo-Japanese War.

1941 - Japan invaded the Philippines.

1941 - The Royal Naval battleships Prince of Wales and Repulse were sunk by Japanese aircraft in the Battle of Malaya.

1953 - Hugh Hefner published the first "Playboy" magazine with an investment of $7,600.

1958 - The first domestic passenger jet flight took place in the U.S. when 111 passengers flew from New York to Miami on a National Airlines Boeing 707.

1964 - In Oslo, Norway, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. received the Nobel Peace Prize. He was the youngest person to receive the award.

1980 - South Carolina Representative John W. Jenretter resigned to avoid being expelled from the U.S. House of Representatives following his conviction on charges to the FBI's Abscam investigation.

1993 - The crew of the space shuttle Endeavor deployed the repaired Hubble Space Telescope into Earth's orbit.

1994 - Advertising executive Thomas Mosser of North Caldwell, NJ, was killed by a mail bomb that was blamed on the Unabomber.

1998 - Six astronauts opened the doors to the new international space station 250 miles above the Earth's surface.

2003 - The U.S. barred firms based in certain countries, opponents of the Iraq war, from bidding on Iraqi reconstruction projects. The ban did not prevent companies from winning subcontracts.

Hey, ph00 is ready....................................

OK, sip sip, now I can relax. whew. Long talk with Seattle son and with wife last night. Things have settled down a bit over the weekend, got something to rub on the gums for the twins with their quest for teeth. Ianna has become a little more like Ianna. BUT, today head in early to the hospital for six days of injections. If blood tests are good, it will be a six hour ordeal for her of chemo drip. Then she comes home for the night and back again tomorrow - - same process. Thankfully she has a port, so it is not a new poke everyday. Hopefully she holds up with the blood count for the whole process so the end of all this is not delayed. There will be one more six day ordeal, then the weaning begins. Hopefully they will be able to keep the end of January projection for all this intensive care to be over. Then it will just be the once a week tests, but they will be in their home on the island for all that to be happening.

OK, refill and I am off to win some wars today. Have a gudurn,

Bob

That was about the best picture regarding the "G" I had seen.

We have had 7 days of heavy overcast and fog, fog with frozen rain, fog with rain on ice, and fog.
Still better than some of the stuff you guys have been getting down south.
Wonder if Heidi is still down in Bobs area. She kind of lucked out.

She is further south in Zombie land. They are all crazy down there. Worship the sundown every night in Mallory square. It is a zoo at sundown.
There are some critters there I know were not on the ark. ............

She didn't luck out if she comes back to a froze up house and will hafta spend the rest of her winter playing plumber! I hate going away in the winter.



Everyone surviving the winter? Actually, it's not even winter yet, it's still autumn! I cringe at the thought of what the rest of the winter will be like.
