  1. If it's a legit cause my parents would have donated to, I send it back marked deceased. If it's an obvious money grab, I put the cemetery's address on the card inside to let them know they've 'moved'
  2. John Hodges....937.276.5246
  3. We've had to post a large sign on the front door to NOT put packages right in front of the door as they have blocked the screen door from opening to retrieve it or gotten stepped on as we didn't know it was there when we stepped out the next morning. Since then, most understood the sign but we've had USPS and UPS take that as put it at the side door so it gets rained on instead. The front porch is 6x10....there's space! You can't fix stupid....
  4. I plan on going. John always puts on a great show! The February show was fairly unproductive as a couple of the vendors I was expecting to have certain die cast stuff didn't have what I was looking for.
  5. The Blue Jackets game was essentially over about six minutes in after Tampa scored three goals on five shots so you didn't miss anything in this game
  6. Something I never thought about..... The Ohio State Highway Patrol has a new tool to help rescue stray animals thanks to generous donations from a humane society. The Ohio chapter of the United States Humane Society donated dozens of leashes to OSP for troopers to keep in their cruisers. It happened after the agency posted about one of its sergeants rescuing a stray dog on the highway. Now troopers all over the state will be able to keep a leash in their vehicles in case they need to make a rescue.
  7. My father suffered from this and it's painful to watch an able body unable to perform the simplest of tasks as the brain deteriorates. It started with taking away his car keys (before he ran into someone or I get a 3a call he had driven hundred of miles away)....then I rehomed his dog as he was no longer able to care for the ten pound furball......eventually it was an assisted care nursing home. Glenn Campbell's song "I'm not going to miss you" really gives an inside look to someone on the outside from the person that has it.
  8. I would suspect is was more of a CYA investigation on Hyundai's part for their first effort on a higher end SUV
  9. Tiger Woods flys his SUV at double the speed limit.....no citation issued......Wow, just Wow!!
  10. Shrimp Etouffee w/ Argentina Red Shrimp (and cook the white rice using coconut oil)
  11. https://www.yahoo.com/news/stray-dog-stole-unicorn-toy-064245523.html They are like kids with their toys. My greyhound had a koala stuffy he loved......wouldn't play with it for weeks if you washed the crusty thing.
  12. Staying focused through comple....SQUIRREL!
  13. Wal Mart parking lot near today's toy show.
  14. Went to a local toy show. It's really a BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH shoot as to what you find here but it virtually doubled from the fall show (in terms of square footage).....sometimes there's great stuff and other times, meh. I know most of the modeler groups went to the Ft Wayne show today. This was my only model find......Sealed inside/complete. I figured with Tom Daniel going over to Atlantis and VW with their license fees, this one wasn't coming back anytime soon!
  15. No it has an engine.....looks like a small V6
  16. Indy swap meet show this past weekend. No shows in over year so went a little overboard......
  17. Great trade with Scott8950!! Excellent communication and fast shipper! Jeff
  18. Yep.....Only 100K on it. Fully optioned base model, including the sunroof and the 11 speaker stereo.....black on black. The wife couldn't believe I made a 200 mile plus round trip when I got it (it had the leather seats with the bun warmers) until she drove it. This was only about 15mph impact but it outweighed the Mazda 3 so much, it spun the other car that the cops had to ask what happened as both cars were facing the same direction.
  19. Replaced with a 2017 Genesis G80 AWD 3.3L (this isnt mine as I dont have the front plate on)
  20. Until last April when a distracted driver (per his citation) failed to yield when the light turned and he turned left...presumably to get to Subway. Took me two years to find a G8 that wasn't beat.
  21. Brakes from the parts box......drilled out the middle to fit the Maisto C7 Gran Sport and painted to match the blue accent
  22. I guess their new pricing structure is raise prices ten percent and put the kits on sale for 40% off. At least pull off the old price sticker or improve your aim when putting the new higher price on. AMT stuff was now $32.99.
  23. Got signed up for the Covid shot. No luck locally so went one county away and two days out at Walgreen's. I kept checking CVS, Rite-Aid and Krogers (their site is a major PITA) to no avail. Already have the second dose scheduled as well. This is the one time it's good to be old and fat....
  24. No wheels in the Milk Truck kit.
