    My first world problem of the day was I went to pick up pizzas for supper. Did a drive by of the chip rack, eyes on the Humpty Dumpty BBQ, halfway home looked at a bag of ketchup chips. WTF anyone like ketchup chips cause nobody here does.

    It really isn’t asking too much. And when she thinks you have too much you just tell her that Gas needs more for his three year plan!

    Just returned home from a visit with my younger brother and his wife at the local Elks Club. Great to see them! All good people there. Had a couple cold beers and few Garlic Parmesan crispy chicken wings!:drool:

    This was after a day off with my wife. Been working on reducing my debt to income ratio over the last 3-4 months. So I sold my 2015 Chevrolet 1500 crew....:( I’m going to miss her! But I’ll be alright.:thumbs:

    Then took a road trip today down to Utica-Rome area. Picked up a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 crew beast I bought a few days later. F3AC1B5E-3B23-4B58-B1B1-0B2DCFDCF060.jpeg Just 62,000 miles on it. Was able to reduce my monthly payment by $192/month. :thumbs:

    Only regular chips, no flavors. Chips good with a decent dip.

    I've become fond of regular, no flavor kettle chips, I like the crunch.

    Man that’s a nice clean truck for an ’08, especially given the amount of salt gets spread on the roads in the winters here in NY. Most trucks down this end are rust buckets by that age. I think you did very well on that purchase.

    Written by a friend of mine.

    He is Always There -- written by DeeDee Cooper
    When life gets you down
    And you're on your own
    Look into your heart
    You are never alone.
    Lift up your voice
    And say a prayer
    Know that Jesus
    Is always there.
    He'll never forsake you
    He's right by your side
    He gives you forgiveness
    For you He died.
    When life gets to hard
    For you to be on your own
    Ask Him for comfort
    You are never alone.
    He is your savior
    On Him you can depend
    He will be there for you
    His love has no end.
    When life has worries
    You are afraid to face
    Know that He is always
    In your life and space
    Call on His name
    Ask Him to be there
    He will answer
    Each one of your prayers.
    When His life ended
    The way we all know
    Peace was then waiting
    If love we did show
    Love for our Savior
    He's been there from the start
    His life on earth over
    He lives on in our hearts.

    Thanks guys. It has a few minor issues, but I don’t expect a perfect truck when it’s twelve years old. So a little at a time I’ll fix it up. Should make a good work horse. Luckily I don’t have to drive much because it would drink more gas than will711 his beer.:whistle::D:salute:

    It is amazing how long it takes to get work done. Almost a week to cut down a couple dead birch trees, get them dragged out of the woods, block them, split them, and stack them. I am taking the weekend off from working with wood. Going to be too hot next week to do much hard labor. Lets just say that my hair color isn't what it was back in HS:BrianK::BrianK:

    We'll I was going to go out on the boat today, but the starboard fender pad's plywood disintegrated. It only lasted 20 yrs. We were on the lake yesterday afternoon, so it's not like it's a huge deal.

    I thought you said nice pics of the TerraPro...I'm like wait a minute, I didn't see any TerraPro pics! Went back and looked, nope, none there...then I re-read your post...:picard:
    They sure are unique machines...the shop owner I worked for kept the demo unit for years and years.
    Surprisingly, you see used ones pop up for sale once in a while...not sure how many Yamaha sold, but I don't think they set the world on fire with them...we only ever sold 3-4 as I recall

    Yep. First World Problems... I like chips, but the first time I saw ketchup chips is was like "oh hell no!". That flavor doesn't sound good at all. Now the crunchers sweet Hawaiian onion chips are unbelievably good. krunchers-sweet-hawaiian-onion.jpeg

    Agreed on the onion chips! :yes:
