  1. The interior was just as nice. Not original to the car, but all stock, black. He said his wife's been begging him to add some AC.. 🤔 Nope!
  2. While out shopping with the misses we pulled in a few spots away from this very nice '63 Falcon. Turns out it belongs to an old school buddy I hadn't seen in years. I always thought he was crazy, since he raced drag bikes on the 1/4 mile. The rear end has been narrowed, disc brakes at all 4 corners and a healthy 302. He said it was in rough shape and set up with a straight front axle as a gasser when he an another friend bought it to flip. Mike ended up taking ownership after they finished it last year. Very nice!
  3. I know we can get attached to our outside buddies almost as much as our inside buddies. I was a bit saddened when my friendly chipmunk wasn't making an appearance earlier this spring. But that day that he finally did show up, I was giddy as ever. Hopefully you're correct and it is Steve's little one carrying on moms legacy. I did read that the average life expectancy of squirrels can vary. Some breeds living longer than others, varying between 1 to 7 years and possibly up to 12 years under the correct conditions. Chipmunks are usually 2 to 3 years. Enjoy them as much as you can while we have the opportunity to.
  4. I've always treated the isles in a store the same as if I'm on the road. The main isles are like the main drag, you have the right a way. Those coming out of the isles in to the main isles should stop and wait until you pass by, not dart out and take your right of way and give you a dirty look as if you are in the wrong. These people who think they are more important or others are inferior to them in the store isles are probably the same idiots that we all complain about on the roads. The other practice I’ve noticed in the stores is people leaving their cart in an isle while they go look for items then bring it back to the cart. I thought the idea of a cart on wheels was to take it along with you in each isle to make shopping easier.
