Hope all have a SAFE and happy 2010.......

I've seen the thread for what vehicles you own, but how many, or what type Mopars have you owned? A Plymouth was my 1st car, but I started tinkering at 14 and knew at that age that Dodge was an innovator and the first to use torsion bars up front. I just never understood the logic of counter-clockwise lugs on the left side:confused2:. Here's my list: [*]'71 Plymouth Valiant, 198 slant 6 [*]'68 Plymouth GTX, 440/375 hp [*]'73 Dodge Dart Sport, 340 [*]'50 Plymouth Deluxe Business Coupe, flat 6 [*]'04 Dodge 2500 4x quad cab, dsl [*]'06 Dodge 3500 4x quad cab srw, dsl Shaun

Thought some of you might like these pics. This was on Hi Way 22 in N. Oregon about 40 mi from the ocean. The herd was just grazing and right by the road. The herd was about 50 strong. The one picture with them looking at the camera was caused by my son's 06 Dodge that is straight piped. He reved the engine and the whole herd looked up at us. Never seen a herd that big in numbers.

Gotta love that job! 2 weeks ago they said we were going to have this monster storm. We got sunny and warm! Yesterday they say 1/2" snow and rain, we got about 5" of snow.. No one here knows how to drive in snow, had to go to the airport a normal 1 hour ride, took 4 hours!

How long can our once great Republic take a licking and keep on ticking? http://forum.mopar1973man.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=135&stc=1&d=1262197956 ORIGINAL CAPTION: The Postal Services created a stamp with a picture of President Obama on it and noticed it wasn't sticking to envelopes. This enraged the President, who demanded a full investigation. After a month of testing and $1.73 million in congressional spending, a special Presidential commission presented the following findings: 1. The stamp is in perfect order. 2. There is nothing wrong with the glue. 3. People are spitting on the wrong side.

Apply caution when you get New Year messages in your mail box! A massive attack of the Storm Worm variant called ‘Zhelatin.pt’ is underway with a rather simpler modus operandi, say Security Experts at Micro World Technologies. It begins with emails arriving with subject line ‘Happy New Year’ or ‘Message for new year’. The mail body has a web address chosen from a random list that contains URLs like newyearcards2008.com, newyearwithlove.com, hohoho2008.com, hellosanta2008.com, happy2008toyou.com and uhavepostcard.com. On these websites, a message is displayed which reads as, “Your download should begin shortly…….. Click here to launch the download and press Run. Enjoy!…

Hey Gang! I know its wintertime but its smart to be informed of the weather condition and road conditions before you venture out on the highway in Idaho... So here is the weather pages for Idaho. Boise http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/boi/ Pocatello, ID http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/pih/ Missoula, MT (NE Side of Idaho) http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mso/ Spokane, WA (NW side of Idaho) http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/otx/ Then for Highway information go to... http://511.idaho.gov/ Like for my local cameras near me... (Just south of me by 10 miles) http://hb.511.idaho.gov/cameras/District_3_Boundary.html

I know there is a tons load of software out these days. I found a great site called Software Patch which is a great place to dwonload updated like Windows XP SP2 without all the BS Microsoft put you through. Or having to hunt down the manufacture of hardware and there web site. Give it a shot its worth it!

Well more and more I'm running into Windows XP limitations that cause issues. The biggest one is that most all software currently is produced for Windows XP SP2. this is the bare requirement to making windows XP working with other software. But you find that support for Windows XP is becoming extremely limited. Most software companies don't want to mess with a dieing horse so they putting there most effort and design power to Vista 64 Bit and Windows 7 64 Bit. Sad to say the days of 32 bit software is closing fast and dieing...:eek:

For those of us in Idaho I'm submitting a cold weather warning. Make sure you got a bottle of anti-gel or some kerosene around. The temps around here are going to be nearing 0*F and even getting negative temps. Be sure to plug in your block heater or get your vehicle into shelter if possible. Take a preview... http://www.weather.gov/forecasts/graphical/sectors/pacnorthwestWeek.php#tabs Local Warnings... http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/boi/ Like here in Pinehurst the weather this morning is 16*F and still falling. :eek:
