Today, you have my respect. It's up to you to keep it.
Like the recurring 22 year sun spot cycle, every generation has all the answers. Yet, here we are.
Altruism. Stoicism. Abstract ideas. Amateur Radio OP since 1962.

Great show.
First truck I drove was a B-20 for Eastern Frt. in NJ in 74. 800K with a milk crate for a passenger seat that belonged in a junk yard. Duplex/triplex trans ruled the day. Then off to Denver and drove a multitude of different trannies. Truck in pic is 400 Cummins/13 speed OD trans.

The short story came out in the April issue of Playboy in 1971. It kept me on the edge of my seat.
The original truck was a 1955 Peterbilt 281 with one drive axle. Another was added for effect.
The license plates on the front bumper meant to imply they were trophies from other victims.

Without question.
My first mortgage(1981-82) was a variable that floated between 13% and 16%, with the added benefit of negative amortization. I owed $5000 more on the house after 12 months.

Good times.

How do magnets work?

Magnets are made of metal, which is mined from the ground.

They are magnetic because the metal still contains pieces of gravity inside it.

My sister lives in NH. She rarely curses, and if she does, it's words like "goshdarnit".
She just lit up my phone with swear words that would make a truck driver or military person proud.
