Title: Merry Christmas
Post by: desotoman on December 23, 2009, 03:28:22 PM
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I also hope everyone gets a good hug from those they love. I know that always makes me feel good during the Holidays. Well OK if you must you can trade the Hug for a new camshaft or trick blower or a drum of Nitro. LOL I will stick with the Hug, they are priceless.
Merry Christmas,
Tom G.

I concur.
You can't beat hugs from loved ones. Probably be my last time I'll see my baby sister for a while. She's moving to the Costa del Sol in Spain to open an American style Rib Joint with her German immigrant husband. I wish I had that kind of guts.
Merry Christmas, and a safe, healthy, and fast New Year to everyone.

Desotoman.........u are f'ing flat out'a luck.
I couldn't locate any of those items at WalMart and the ones that would Hug..........it would require way too
much fuel to even remember what, or who, you had done.
Revise the list and ask for something like The Phoenix, Art Chrisman's Hustler, Herda's streamliner, Markley's tank, Tom Beatty's tank,
Vesco's bike liner or even Joe Amo's present bike.
Your chances would be better.
Maybe another decal....................for under your pillow.
Merry Christmas to all of this marvelous group of friends that we have developed with this site.
A special Thanx to Jon Amo, Jon W and his constant support, Nancy and Al Gore for developing the Internet.
Thanks to Marlo Treit for the concept and dream, Jim Hume for making it become reality and all the people that support Target550.com and the build site
on Landracing.com, that has given us such an audience.

Life is great. Nancy and I have friends from all over the world -- friends that are in touch with us constantly. And we get to see so many of them at Maxton, at Bonneville, and everywhere we go during our year.
Best wishes to all of you -- and thanks for keeping landracing.com on the screen of your computer, too.
PS: CRUD! I ended up doing the photo in Word so I could easily add the text -- and now the thing wants to be a download. And since it's not a photo format I can't load it into Photobucket. I'll think of something -- but in the meantime, Merry Christmas.

Everyone have a Happy Christmas and a Prosperous and Safe New Year ! I finally got to sit down at this thing after my duties as chief Gofer Guy and Dishwasher for this Italian Woman I'm married to that cooks non stop for about three days because of Christmas Eve (fish) and Christmas Day ( Rib Roast and LaSagna, Natch) . I also would like to recognize the troops overseas, as I remember being stuck far away back in the 60s. I also want to acknowledge all the volunteers in LSR, especially the crew showed up at LTA/2009. We are very fortunate in the USA, That's about enough of a gift for any of us. Bob and Angie Wanner

Merry Christmas to all! :cheers:
There is NOTHING to assemble tonight! :cheers:
At first, I thought HOORAY, but as sit here, I feel like something is missing.
It just doesn't feel like Christmas if I'm not cursing at the Chinese for not being able to write English instructions, count the # of bolts to put in a box, or drill two holes in alignment with each other. It's traditional. I guess next year I'll buy something just to cuss at it.

Pat:
Good thought. My daughter called yesterday to tell how she had thought of me - while staying up late to assemble a big toy for her 1-year-old. Angela cursed and got cranky and all of the stuff that goes with putting toys together, just like she's heard me tell during her childhood. And I dutifully reminded her that in a bunch of years -- she'll likely be able to hear the same story from her kids as they assemble their kids' toys.
Merry Christmas morning to you all. It's about 31F and windier than the dickens here in Skandia, Michigan.

The "hot" toy of the year is the Mind Control gadget. You put a headset on, and by thinking about lifting a ball in a tube, the ball goes up. After practice, you lift the ball to 3 target heights.
Mind Control throttle?
For the pickup racers:
For level one - You think about buying a mobile home. For level two - You think about putting your truck up on cinder blocks in front of the house. For level three - You think about marrying your cousin.
BTW - It appears to work, my daughter is getting it to move, but can't fully control it yet.

Aah the distant memories, too many crew members trying to assemble a doll carridge at 2:30 AM with the assistance of too many barley pops..........
Took quite a few years but much wiser now, going great this year. Hope everybody else's morning went/goes as well as mine. Best wishes to all for a continued great season on into a safe, fast New Year.

OK I'll admit it. I spent all day yesterday helping my 9 year old grandson build a roller coaster kit. 43 pages of instructions plus on line help with color pictures and still took all day. One of the best days I've had when I saw his eyes light up when it worked.

Wow Doug..........now you have a 9 year old driver.
It won't be long until u won't be able to keep up with him.
He's lucky to have you. My patience is at a very low ebb when it comes to assembly of kits.
Maybe it's not a matter of patience. It could be lack of understanding of instructions that are written in China.
