Interesting, maybe the jokes should be limited to Fridays as originally intended. Just a thought not wanting to offend anyone.

Or maybe it was the post for ads for the program. Seems like it slowed down after that.

Just some thoughts on the subject.

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

I'll second the wishes to all the mothers.

It could be that people are starting to leave the comfort of their computers now that more and more of us are fully vaccinated. It will be so nice to enter the world again.

I hope everyone's staying well!

I thought we had an unusual report that there may be moisture on the salt. I'm holding up my entry!  Oh, I don't have one any more . . .

   We took road trip on Friday a week ago.
At lands end, nothing but water as far as one could see.
.05" of rain yielded 5" water.  Folks out wading.

Trust me; it will eventually evaporate.


Lunch at Salt Flats Cafe was excellent!!

Glad to see you're all still here.  My mission of the last 8-3/4 years is over. My Sandy died after 60 years together; 2 weeks ago.  One of the last things she said to me was "go have fun with your cars after I'm gone."  I'm 82 now; but still feel pretty good. About 5 years ago I bought the skin and bones of Doug King's Golddigger lakester from his son, Brian.  Took it apart and let it collect dust in the corner of my shop. About all I did with it since was some planning on how to redo the roll cage and bought a plasma cutter. 
So the project starts.  First get rid of the clutter in the shop. Already a very nice champ quick change with early Ford side bell mounts found me and and handily devoured that check we got from the government last month. 
A lot has happened in the Landspeed racing world while I've been busy with more important things.  So please bear with me if I sound like a newby sometimes.  Ed Weldon, Los Gatos (mountains) CA.
