It remains one of the best meals I’ve ever experienced. The gator knows I’m right. It was my first boil. Super enjoyable and definitely a fun time. A little more work than I want to put in when I eat (unless its full lobsters) but tasty and memorable. That gator has no doubts you're right 😎. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a newly licensed driver and we gave him my 1999 Jeep Wrangler TJ that's a 5-speed V6. Pretty sure I'll be replacing the clutch by September, but he's getting better daily. Funny thing, he told me literally ZERO of his friends know how to drive a stick shift, and have ZERO interest in learning either... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LLC Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Many years ago I sold the first new car I had bought for my wife to someone that couldn’t drive a standard for more than I paid for it. It was a 2 year old Mazda 323 and because of exchange fluctuations the prices had gone up quite a bit for new ones since I had bought it. I had to drive her to home after she bought it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure my mom had one of those. We used to have all standard cars as there were good deals to be had on the second hand market. That all ended by the time I started driving though.

99call Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Nobody likes to see bullying in the world of tobacco. An interesting insight into birth of the cigarette, and the negative feeling toward it. Mr cigar wearing a top hat and spats, definitely has a feel of elitism. Mr pipe has the feeling of the "i didn't do anything onlooker". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First car I bought with the help of my parents, I made sure to get a manual. Had a few automatics after but always missed driving a stick. Ended up getting another one in 2014 (which was a feat in itself to try and find what I wanted with a manual transmission) that I loved and got rid of it last year. I now miss driving it everyday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bill Hayes Posted June 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2021 In Melbourne we've been in and out of lockdown. This weekend saw a change with some restrictions lifted which allowed for small group gatherings outside. So, seeing as our annual wine weekend was postponed, I caught up with the same mates in the park in the middle of Melbourne's second best racecourse in Caulfield. Great to get some sun, have a stout, a Monte 2 and mindless jibber jabber with mates again. It was preferable to working from home or enjoying my backyard in the cold with a novelty Russian hat. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chibearsv Posted June 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2021 Had dinner last night with most of the guys I've been playing horses with over the last 25 years or so. One of our guys is moving to Florida which we will miss a lot since he's also one of the top 50 handicappers in the US. We enjoyed the get together immensely and got right back into the verbal sparring that always happens. A great time. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
