Not So Pro 3

*s-wordt, I’m tired…yardwork sucked this afternoon/evening. Workout on the tennis court earlier was something I wasn’t expecting today. I can hold my own on the court, but the guy I was playing with today had my ass running every square inch. Had him running it as well, but he’s 20 years my junior. He got the best of my ol’ ass. I’m getting back into the tennis thing, but it’s a slow process til I get used to it again going balls to the wall and not get winded so damn quick.

Guy Balls and Ass in one post? Jason, Jason, Jason.....

Neighbor lady idiot has two hay eating dogs. One has that sleeping disorder and just falls over. 1200 vet bill last week fir a fist sized gash in it back leg when it went all fainting goat on her. She has NEVER riden either one. Just big pets that she couldn't afford without people propping her up financially.

Jannies horse rescue is a good idea but it lacks people power. One step from the glue factory and they never have enough heat for their firewood. People mean well but that ain't the way. Horses are fat but the ground is not well kept and the out buildings are open. My horses had oats, straw, hay, blankets or three when needed and a closed barn at night in winter. Plus my time, everyday. Shoe shines ain't free but I traded for mechanical work.

Its what actually matters when we say "fugg it's humid out". Its actually the dew point that make it feel that way. You can have high humidity with a low dew point and not be miserable with yer sack stuck to your leg. If the dew point gets to far past the 50's its uncomfortable. 60 and higher, miserable.

78 dew point here last week. Temps mid 90's
I kick you in your stuck sack and it won't move, troofs.

Buddy of mine grew up in an old school Church community in Alaska and used draft horses for skidding logs.

Now that would be a decent reason to have some.

When I was taking interferon for Hepatitis C, a native healer had me soaking my feet in some stuff she sent me a couple of times a week. It really made me feel better.

When I took Harvony about two minutes later I felt sick, nauseous sick, for the next six *f-wording months and had the chits for four years. Not sure what one could be worse interferon or the new chits they got. Sure beats being dead or dying from liver cancer soon. I'm still dying just much slow now.

i had a 74 that was green and white
it was a cheyenne super 10
thats the old style decal also

Gone by 75' mid year on half tons and one ton old emblem was gone like that in 77'. I had a 78' 2500K Silverado and still own it. Rotten but still there. Short headlight doors made it look better imo than a 79'. No love for 80 or 81 fronts. They is ugly.

lol the 74 i had came with original bill of sale i think it was about 3500 bucks then
i was the third owner

I was third owner of the 78' I have. It was traded in at a car lot I did cams, motor swaps, built diffs and stuff for in the eighties. It needed a clutch and front springs. Under 100K so I bought it and dropped in a nasty SBC for the summer and busted up the rears, twice. Built them up and swapped out the 33's for new 35" General radials. They were new chit back then on fifteen twelves dog in cast aluminum wagon wheels. Then I pulled the crazy 327 motor that winter for a 350 400hp with flat tops. That cut down on broken carriers, polished broken yokes and snapped axles. Top loader NP 4sp, NP205 case with 2.61 low range, 12" clutch, 427 truck flywheel, 4" HD shafts plus 650 horse don't mix or run for chit on pump gas sporting near 12-1 ratio in the holes. 101LL with booster was ok. 105 anything allowed you a cushion to turn it up near 700. Big pia running a roller cam back then with rev kits under the heads. The 350 was able to tow plenty.

Almost forgot the 3.73 ratio gears. Good combo on a hydraulic cam with some head work and a dual plane I take.

A guy in VA and a few in PA plus one in VT are still using them that I know of. One guy on here in, I forget maybe Idaho?... uses them to skid logs on management and private lands.
