well this seems to point too, were getting some recognition


Believe it or not, YOU are well known far and wide not just in the Corvette field of purview, but in all Automotive fields as being thorough and precise in diagnostics and repair and engine building. A life time that has you full of wisdom and knowledge, and you have never asked much in return.

What the hell were you thinking, as this is the kind of work that drives INSTRUCTORS insane!!!

All kidding aside, you would have made a top notch engine builder for any Pro Mod or Top Fuel Dragster team ever. Grumpy Jenkins sure could have used you on his team.
 
thank you! , I doubt bill Jenins or smokey Y would have been in need of help,
but I did put in decades of time trying to learn all I could and had a bunch of hands on experience

Everyone needs help rather they know it or not and would be wise to accept it. When you think you know it all about a certain subject, a kid might just ask you the simple question of why. And you will scratch your head to find an answer that might surprise you. Why not------------------but at what cost -----------------------financially, physically, and mentally.

I use to pride myself on being ASE certified and being good at what I did. Now I am paying for all the pain and toil put into a profession that will never be repeated by the X&Y generations. To soon will the days come when all performance cars will be outlawed and everything run the Govt. regulators for your transportation needs.

Off box now before tumble down.
 
yes I'm rather amazed and depressed to find the vast majority of the younger generation seems to be total adverse to any physical labor or learning new skills and most have no clue as to the country's history, the U.S. constitution, or the value in planing or saving.
when I was younger almost every male I knew wanted to hunt, fish, camp, work on cars and learn as much as they could about basic tool use, electricity and building trade related skills. and of course find a very friendly girl to play boy/girl games with ...but we also had a great deal of respect for the consequences of getting caught doing anything illegal, so a great effort was put into not doing anything seriously wrong

I don't know where you are living but the car scene is well and alive. Let me ask you are you out at the late night meets that you were in your 20's. I am not but they still go on I know some younger guys. I could get into a hour long rant on government and freedoms.

Probably capable of being done, but I'd like to see a robot design and build a simple 2 br.house without any human help from planning/design to passing inspections for move in.

I'm old/schooled. Early to bed/early to rise, makes a man healthy/wealth/wise. Junk words as many have died at an early age do to working themselves to the bones. If I had known I would live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself.

They are shutting down all trade curriculum's at the High School levels for lack of interest/funding for they think that EVERYONE should be college educated.

Be prepared for the fall of the U.S. [coming soon] from within, as Abe Lincoln [I Think] said . Too much power to the few who make laws for the many, and won't enforce them for fear of being kicked out of office where they write laws to protect and benefit themselves and no one else can get those benefits. If you don't believe, just Google benefit laws for members of Congressmen/Senators/House of representatives.

I say more lead and powder to clean up the vast majority of protestors who for some reason think their thoughts and ways are what is best for you and me. I have never seen a Confederate statue hurt any person, black or white, and there are NO slaves in the U.S. today being sold. Hell, I'm Scotch/Irish and don't wear anything that says my life matters more than yours.They will replace them all with anyone that is black and try to wipe out History of the War Between The States and what it was truly fought over, and slavery had nothing to do with it at the beginning of the War. Even Abe was willing to let the Southerners keep the slaves if they would just abide by the Yankee Imperialists rules. Look at what happened to the Indians of the U.S. who were native to this land well before any came to establish themselves as settlers and to establish a Democracy.

They don't even teach U.S history in the U.S. at many schools today, for fear of offending someone of color/race/religious beliefs.


Maybe Grumpy won't kick me off here for these words of not hate, but words of wisdom from those that have persevered . No Democracy has lasted more than 200 years, with the exception of the U.S All fell from within.
Roman Empire was the last to fall in this manner, if I remember my World History correctly.
 
Id have to agree with a good deal of that unfortunately
yes its obvious, that way too many of the law makers and judges sure are very short sighted and greedy,
many are more concerned with maintaining their position of power than following the U/S.constitution,
or being bothered or effected by the welfare of the country.
