[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] HE IS A LUCKY YOUNG MAN someone up there is looking out for him once again!!!
He was coming home from work going North on sunnyside when he SAYS he hit some gravel & countersteered/oversteered & BAM it flipped right on it's top & slid for about 25' he came out of it w/ NO injuries, Thank God, but the truck is toasty [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] pushed the roof down & busted the windshield out along w/ some nice road rash down to the sheet metal on the hood,fenders,door ect. Cop said "Mam your son was not doing the speed limit" well NO CHIT DICK TRACY does ANYONE do the limit on our road...........................NO but NO he should NOT HAVE speeding, his bad [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] THANK GOD there was no one coming in the South bound direction or he would of been a sorry young man!! A couple people stopped & let them borrow thier phone to call us, that was a LOVELY phone call let me tell ya!! Ron went up there to check it out, cops weren't even there yet. As I was talking to him they drove by the house so I went up there. DJ was a little shaken but that's about it!! He's REAL bummed his truck is toast & he WON'T be driving for awhile, he didn't get cited there, but they said they would measure the skid marks imbedded in the concrete [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] & see if they are going to cite him???? Kinda wierd, I hope he doesn't loose his licens but if he does he does I guess!! It will suck for us havning to drive him to work but THAT'S LIFE!!

Then I FINALLY get to bed @ 1:30 & get to work @ 9:30 to find out our 2nd manager won't be coming in,I will have the floor all to myself(for the 1st time since my promotion), oh boy, can I stay till 4 which ended up being 5:40 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] ahhhhh & worked w/ some WORTHLESS MF'ERS [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] but I made it thru the day I am now POOPED!!!

WOW [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] thats crazy.. Im glad wonderboy is OK.,. Its a lil scary the first time you roll a car or truck [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] But man are the memories cool when you don't get seriously hurt. Slooooow Motion...

And this just goes to prove my point. Teenagers DO NOT NEED EXPENSIVE CARS.. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Glad to hear he's OK!

How many lives does he have left now?????

 

Glad to hear DJ is ok. I dread Blunderboy driving.

Brian,

I bought every car I've ever owned with my own money and wrecked the first 3.

Took 5 months and a day to total the first one. Ran into a dang billboard and the headlights were facing each other (it was a corvair.)

Took another year and a half of riding a moped and saving my pennies to buy car no. 2. That one, I fell asleep and went off an embankment between Parker and 29 Palms. Followed the trail of car parts back to the road. (there's more, but I won't tell it here [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] ) The tires held air even though the rims were a kind of oval shape!

Third one, I sorta knocked over a gas pump, but it wasn't too serious.....I got away [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Then I realized that my guardian angel might fly the coop so I got more careful. The old burb hit a cupla pot holes, but other than that, no accidents for about 18 years or so [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

for nwcutie a pothole = any small car in her blindspot [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

and.....blunderboy turned 15 yesterday......364 days and counting

 

Dang it! I missed out on "International Talk Like a Pirate Day"

(from another site...)

Most days are like all of the others,
Go to work, come back home, watch TV,
But, brother, if I had me druthers,
I'd chuck it and head out to sea,

For I dream of the skull and the crossbones,
I dream of the great day to come,
When I dump the mundane for the Old Spanish Main
And trade my computer for rum! ARRR!

T' me,
Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho,
It's "Talk Like A Pirate" Day!
When laptops are benches God gave us for wenches,
And a sail ain't a low price to pay!
When timbers are shivered and lillies are livered
And every last buckle is swashed,
We'll abandon our cars for a shipfull of ARRRs
And pound back the grog till we're sloshed. Yo ho ....

- Anyone see my keys?
- Just off the coast o' Florida, matey! ARRR!

Don't pick up yer phone and say "Hello,
Your ten-o-clock meeting's delayed",
Ye scrunch up yer face and ye bellow,
"AVAST! Ye've been bleedin' BELAYED!"

Ye can't keep this fun to yourself, I bet,
So sing "Aye", "ARRR", and "Ayy", every man!
We ain't got much grasp of the alphabet,
But a Daymn good retirement plan! (raucous laughter)

T' me,
Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho,
It's "Talk Like A Pirate" Day!
Whatever's in fashion is in for a thrashin'
And bein' polite is passe!
When it's ev'ry man's duty to grab his proud beauty
And let out a hearty YO HO!
And if this offends you, hold your breath as we sends
you
Ta Davy Jones' Locker ya go!

- Where IS Davy Jones' Locker, anyway?
- Right near Monkee Island! Arr, aye, arr....

We'll tell every banker "Heave to and weigh anchor!"
Buy latte with pieces of eight
We'll fight to be chosen as cap'n or bosun
The loser, o' course, is worst mate!

When we hoist Jolly Roger the landlubbers dodge 'er,
We fill 'em with loathing and fear,
We'll plunder and pillage each city and village,
Or at least clean out Wal-Mart of beer!

- Ahoy, mateys! And Welcome ta "Iron Chef Pirate!"
Let's see the secret ingredient!
<GONNNG It's Barnacles!
- Oh ho! There'll be some cutting-edge cuisine!

- "AWK! AWK!" <bzzzzzz
- Hold still, Polly! I need this for me salad!
- Avast there, me bucko! Ye need CARROT shavings! CARROT!
- But Captain, I be on Atkins!
- Moron...

- And you! WHAT are ye doin' with that salmon?
- I'm grillin' it on a hunk o' cedar, what d'y'think?
- Ye CAN'T do that in a JAPANESE STIR-FRY, ye bilge rat!
- Oh HO! Ye never heard o' "wokkin' the plank"?

There ain't no computin' or morning commutin',
No "Parking Lot Full" signs for me,
No lawns ta be mowin' or bills to be owin',
I'm knowin' the pull of the sea.

The fresh salty brace of the wind on my face
Through hurricane, sunshine or squalls,
I'm keepin' my eyes on the distant horizon,
Verizon can hold all my calls!

To wear a red coat full o' buckles,
To earn a few duelling scars,
Well, at least we can get a few chuckles
By filling the office with ARRRs!

And maybe we'll never get closer,
Than watchin' 'em on the big screen,
So here's to old Errol and Depp as Jack Sparrow,
And every Daymn one in between!

T' me,
Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho,
It's "Talk Like A Pirate" Day!
That time in September when sea dogs remember
That grown-ups still know how ta play!
When wenches are curvy and dogs are all scurvy
And a soft-wear patch covers your eye,
Ta hell with our jobs, for one day we're all swabs
And buccaneers all till we die!

So hoist up the mainsails and shut down your brain cells,
They only would get in the way,
Avast there, me hearty, we're havin' a party,
It's "Talk Like A Pirate" Day!

Yo Ho!

 

TReX400, I forwarded the pics to Randy and here's his response.

"Fred since it has been blued I believe it would be treated as a 39a for value. It looks in good condition so $300-500 depending on the buyer. Be advised if he were to have it professionally restored, re-case colored $$$ an original 39 goes from $1300 for 60% and $3000 at 95%. Not many in great shape due to the fact these rifles were shooters. (My prices come from 27th Edition of Blue Book of Gun Values)hope this of some help.
