    Hey, I can’t log in…

  3. KG says:

  4. KG says:

    I see Judge Holden has put roots down at Keeping Stock. Oh well, at least here we can be civil.

      Us too. We get a beautiful. Tropical high of 17 tomorrow though, so that’s something to look forward to! :cool:

      • KG says:

        17? During the day? maximum?

        • The Gantt Guy says:

          Yup. Might be able to shed the thermals and just rely on the overcoat instead (since, even though it will be warm, it will still rain).

  7. KG says:

    Global cooling. It’s happening already.

  8. KG says:

    hmmmmmmmmmm……..now I know what you do on the office computer all day…

  10. The snow arrived at Whakapapa today.
    I interviewed the owners of several South Island resorts a few days back.
    They say there is no global warming, just climatic cycles.
    Well, they have backed their words by spending $100 million on new equipment, even if some is snow making machines.
    They are looking forward to making cash from visting Australians.

      If Gillard has her way, we soon won’t have any cash, Fairfacts.
      Try as I might, I can’t imagine paying for an air ticket, travelling for hours just to fall over in wet white COLD stuff.
      I did an Arctic Warfare Course once and to this day I don’t know what I did to deserve the punishment. (Norwegian girls are nice, though….)
      Why anybody would get around on two planks when God has kindly invented the snowmobile beats me.

    Some people really really need to grow up, get a life, get a sense of perspective.

    R.I.P Donald “Duck” Dunn, bass player extraordinaire from a large proportion of the great music recordings if the last half-century, from Booker T and the MGs and (perhaps sadly) most well-known for his role in the Blues Brothers movies.

    R.I.P. Carroll Shelby, creator of automotive beauty, including three of the most http://dayerses.com/photos/shelby-cobra/12/ beautiful pieces of machinery to ever grace the roads.

    • KG says:

      Pretty cool! Don’t know about you, but I tend to imagine WW2 in black and white, and colour photographs always come as a surprise.

      • Darin says:

        Sort of,to me the B&W images make the war feel like a history textbook reads.

        I know one group who really loves color pics,the restoration crowd.Nothing makes a job easier than seeing exactly what color is supposed to be where.

        It’s also a blast getting to see what all that wornout stuff I’ve worked on and worked with over the years looked like when it was new :smile:

    For Andrei. A man sitting in a public toilet discovers there’s no toilet paper. He calls into the next booth, “Do you have any toilet paper in there?” “No” comes the reply. “Do you have any newspaper?” “Sorry” is the reply. “OK” says the man. “So could you give me two fives for a ten?” groan.

    • KG says:

      Cute, but can he handle the power? :roll:
      Where is Kris, by the way? I miss his comments.

      • Darin says:

        Prolly out for another Soy Latte :mrgreen:

      • Kris K says:

        Been doing afternoons/evenings and then looking for a new car in my spare time. I get the odd chance to read CR, but am usually a couple of days behind when I do and so don’t bother commenting when discussions have already moved on.

    • Kris K says:

      Thanks Darin – I think I need to change my undies …
