Thoughts and ideas that hold forever true..........

Always,always,respect the guys of law enforcement.Dont give them a single ounce of lip,and you will be ok..yes sir,yes officer,no officer..And I have always found it is more so when dealing with cops who ware working the 12-8 overnight shift …I know it sucks. -
No problem.I think it’s great how SAE has just enough,I guess in their budget,to put out this issue every few months,or more common,one issue per year.But idk,did SAE go under,?I have not seen it at the book store in a long time.They got rid of a lot of great magazines.There are some nice models in this issue…Pick up a copy.

Sorry,I wasn’t exactly sure where to post this,but Scale Auto Contest Cars issue was out on the stands at Barnes,& Noble.

Yea,so.I had to get a script at CVS.While I was there I noticed all the overflow they had experienced on Halloween candy.So I had to stock up.Too bad,no more candy corn.Im addicted to the stuff..I think.

Wow,I never thought he would retire.Started watching him race back in the 80s as a teenager.Him,and Bernstein were my favorite drivers,them and Bob Glidden(RIP).Anyway,I guess the Mrs.Force might have had something to do with it.🤔I met him at E town,he signed my NHRA banner.And I still have it…The man was never short of words.😁

Ok,WIP,,,I'am going to make an attempt to finish this car,but it might be beyond my current building skills,which are fine,except when it comes to painting,I suck.Anyway the resin is very brittle,that’s why the doors and trunk deck are being repaired,after finding small hairline cracks within the resin.But again,like I said ,the model is most likely to difficult to finish

There’s no more Spring or Fall here on Long Island.Its hot,then it freezing,sucks even more as you get older.Actually that can fall under depressing.🤣 -

So idk how,and I’ll make it short,but I called one member,who got me in touch with a member,and so on.The car was found on the table,where I left it,Closed wheel comp.I thank u Mike and Dom(sorry spelling).He lives five mins and is going to drop the car off on his way home on Wens.Anyone from LIARS,again great show.Wish I could’ve stay till the end,just wasn’t in the legs the other day.🙄😖 Thanks again guys

Congratulations Bob.I took a bunch of photos,I guess I’ll just add them to yours.Sorry if I double up on yours..Oh and I called some number,but the guy wasn’t much help.I actually forgot a model on the table.Not sure I have a picture.It was ,I believe in the Closed wheel area,then again,it could’ve wound up anywhere.It was a Richard Petty blue beat up 71 Plymouth NASCAR model,Obviously number 43..It means a lot to me.Im pretty sure someone might have walked off with it.I feel so stupid.I actually packed up early,had,about 4,5 cars on the table,with only 2 to be judged.One was the 70 Road Runner in the “race shop”🙄,sort of diorama.Also the black and silver 95 Grudge drag car.A Suffolk County police car.The guys NYPD highway patrol car was amazing.He deserved 1st in that class..I threw mostly all my stuff in a couple of bags,when I left,so when I got home,there was a bunch to fix.Anyway,I’m pretty sure we spoke,might have bought a kit off u.Bought three new ones.Thanks to all u guys belonging to LIARS.Maybe one day,I’ll sit it on a meeting.When is the next one,and where? Thanks

I did drive a black 09 Ford. CV unmarked car.The car was just a great strong car,but not strong enough.I apologize if I already wrote about this.Anyway,I’m making a turn,a big ugly brown UPS truck slammed into me.This was the accident scene and what’s left of my beloved Ford.BAAAAMMMMM!!!!🙄😬

Hey seriously,I didn’t mention it,but the rock quarry by my house.Only real trails with in a 20 min ride.It rained like I said,,it was real muddy.This happened Friday.I see the gate is open,so I head in,normally no one’s really outside.I see this almost perfect mud hole.I say I gotta go through it.Well it was deep,really deep,I’m trying like crazy to get out,I’m rocking it back and forth first.then I put it in 4L,took a second and I got out.The Jeep was covered in mud and muddy water.It felt great when I pulled up.Then a worker comes over,I told him I was sorry and I won’t return.he was ok with that.Anyway,I don’t feel like washing it.It rained here today,let it wash off.I think I also made a mistake to by a 2003 Land Rover,but a al🤑t to fix..🤔🙄
