I reached out through their website and it says they will contact you within 24 hours.......holy cow they really did! They asked for more info on the type of model and I sent the pic of the shipper, the bar code of models that are shown in the pic. That was over a week ago......

Huge fan of The Simpsons (the older, funny episodes). As I got older, I saw my body morphing into Homer's shape....don't have his hairline, yet

Diecast Models Wholesale has the 1966 Johnny Lightning hearse. Regular version is $8.99 and the Rat Fink version is $12.99.

The Kaiser came from a local die cast toy show. 1/18.....only missing the passenger side mirror The Range Rover is a 1/24 from Rite Aid....once I got through the transaction with the snotty cashier

Local die cast show. All are open/complete. The Skyline was solely to irritate my teenager Already have a Sierra (Merkur) but it's only the second one I've seen

BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. (WAVE) - Taco Bell is set to break ground on a brand-new, innovative concept restaurant in Minnesota opening next year. Called “Taco Bell Defy,” the restaurant will be the first-of-its-kind, with a two-story, 3,000 square-foot location that offers four lanes for drive-thru service. So when (not if!) they get your order wrong, do you have to toss it up to the second floor?

Food truck rally at a local park Lunch Empanada for lunch and a salted caramel bourbon pretzel for dessert (food coma hit hard about an hour later) Dinner My teenager and I are splitting a Bahn Mi sandwich and a Bulgogi bowl

Only wanted the Toronado, but the DeSoto was too nice to pass up! I caved on the Viper. I resisted but I think I have virtually all the other 1/18 releases and the teenager talked me into it

Been a while since I've seen one so had to grab it. Open but complete.

Tower Hobbies has it for $42 AMT Foxy van and the Californian are under $30. Seems way off...

Math is hard...... If you saw the video of the LAPD bomb squad putting a tad too much illegal fireworks into the container and detonated it The explosion of a Los Angeles Police Department bomb-disposal truck that injured 17 people last month was caused by “human error” after officials underestimated the weight of the fireworks that detonated, authorities said Monday. The June 30 blast came when the bomb squad was called to remove about 40 “Coca-Cola can-sized” improvised explosive devices that had been among the 32,000 pounds of fireworks stored illegally by a resident, authorities said. Since some of the fireworks were found to have “leaking material,” officials on the scene decided to detonate the dangerous explosives there. LAPD Chief Michel R. Moore said in a news conference that bomb technicians believed they had stored 16.5 pounds of explosives in the Total Containment Vessel, the bomb squad’s disposal truck, but an ATF National Response Team later found that the technicians had placed more than 42 pounds into the vehicle. None of the injuries to the 10 law enforcement personnel and seven residents from the blast were life-threatening. In addition to the injuries, the blast damaged or destroyed 37 vehicles, 22 residential properties and 13 businesses, police said.

Just gonna put this right here.....

DMV...... Apparently the folks on the People of WalMart website hang out at the local DMV office! With their website being clear as mud, I had several forms of ID with me to renew my drivers license. Of course I didn't have the one they required to get the drivers license to use to be able to fly....birth certificate. The lady behind the counter said the requirement has been postponed until 2023. I said can you be more specific.....January 2023? December 2023?? May 2023. Since the expiration was coming up and I may have flashbacks from the freak show I witnessed yesterday a.m., I said I will just renew the current one and get the upgraded one at a later date/time. Less than a minute later, she said that the state now allows you to renew it good for eight years and did I want to do so. The filter between the brain and mouth tapped out. I said "did we NOT just have this conversation less than a minute ago! Why would you even ask that??" My tax dollars at work!!

Congratulations!! My mom passed six months after their 50th anniversary and I made Dad put that in her obituary as it's a major accomplishment.

I fully agree with you!! Time Warner sent me to collections over $10 because of their billing error. I wrote a nastygram when I sent the notice back to the collection company and a copy to Time Warner....ended up getting a $20 check. Every Saturday when their sales rep interrupted my quiet weekend, I gave them an earful!

Doug's doing it again........August 29th

You can make an ice cream float........

Matchbox has been hit (Plymouth Savoy) or miss (more without an interior) in the recent years. Here's a few interesting ones coming out next year......

44 tables! Doug said he will look at doing again, possibly next month, as the Dayton and Cincinnati shows aren't 'til November this year. Sold of more than I bought....in spite of what the wife thought! It was just great to see people from both area clubs

Couple pics of today's show........

From the Louisville show yesterday...... Pic 1.....builts but using for parts. The van will get restored eventually as is it's complete has the early 70's front end (missing the horizontal taillights) and no sink lines from the gigantic clear top of later versions Pic2....Geo Storm promo, Mercedes SL (Monogram kit), and a die cast Pagani (for my teenager) Pic 3....the Yellow Challenger was the lone one I was missing. Jo-Han Toronado (sealed). P/L Silver pre-painted Ford GT. Revell California Roller......missing tires/glass, may leave unpainted as one of the best 'molded in colors' I've ever seen

When you're a kid, it was exciting to get your favorite players autograph at a sporting event. I'm not sure which is worse now......seeing players knowing you're old enough to be their father OR taking you're kids to the autograph session knowing you watched that player's father play the sport and you have HIS autograph!

They changed the wording on some of the model listings. It used to say: Due to the nature of this item, the style you receive will vary. If you would like to specify a style, please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-888-0321, and press 1 to place your order with a representative. But they changed it to: NOTE: This item comes in assorted styles. While we make every effort to ensure items in stock are represented accurately online, at this time, we are unable to ensure that you will receive this item in the style you see pictured.

As more details are made public, the more heartbreaking this becomes. Turns out the mortar tilted towards the group of people at the party and he stepped in front of it to protect his friend/teammate and his family. A truly selfless act......

My oldest finally got an IT position!! Now that I'm the old fart, I'm shocked at the stuff companies pull and then they wonder why people job hop! One of his interviews, they offered him a position for about 33% less than the one he just accepted. Another one wanted him to sign a non-compete clause...hard no!! If it turns out to be a nightmare, then he cant jump ship to another company for a year!
