  9. Sometimes, cleaning the battery connections can help. A thin 'crust' can form between the battery post and the cable connector. that 'crust', can keep the alternator from getting the proper charge to the battery. After cleaning the connections and get a 'jump-start'. As was suggested, go to a place that can check the 'condition' of your battery. This may not be the cause, but, it's a 'cheap' start to finding your problem. Chuck
  10. Great post, Sparky! Thanks for sharing. I didn't see, (maybe I read it to fast) where if you got punished in school, you got it again when your dad got home. Try that now! Kids now, have and know their rights and probably have an attorney on retainer. Sister Mary Rommel, had to put away the 3-cornered ruler. I did a whole bunch of those things, growing-up. Like you said, probably the reason we are enjoying the hell outa life in our 'later years'. I think, we came out of it all in pretty fair shape. Chuck
  11. I rank him right-up there with O.J.! Chuck
  12. I'd have to agree with you. We adopted absolutely nothing from Native Americans! Chuck
  13. Go to a ball game and call someone while the crowd goes nuts over a great play!
  14. I second that! I haven't heard where immigrants have to 'give-up' their language or their culture. If, they want to live here... learn our language. They can still maintain their language(s) and customs. They want all our rights and privilages, Social Security and all the rest. This is our country and if they want to go through 'proper channels' to immigrate here, they need to adapt to our language and culture... it's not the other way around. Being 'friendly' with immigrants is great but, I don't feel as though we need to start learning new languages, wearing sombreros, kilts or sarongs, just to be 'politically correct'. Personally, I'm getting a little tired of 'politically correct!
  15. Two lawyers were standing outside a courthouse, talking. They both saw a homeless man eating grass from the lawn. The one lawyer approached the homeless man and told him he could go to his home and told him where he lived. The homeless man said he had a wife and kid. The lawyer says; "No problem!" The lawyer went back to talk with the other lawyer. The other lawyer says; "That was really kind of you!" The lawyer replies; "Have you seen how tall my grass is?"
  16. Hey! Did you hear the one about the two lawyers, walk into a bar... Oops, better not!
  17. Kerry, Edwards and Jackson aren't running for any office at this time. That's why we aren't hearing from them. What about Sharpton? That's right... he has his own T.V. show. Chuck
  18. After the 'experience', I would call it an 'old school' apprenticeship. He was a 'task master' but, I sure learned a lot. Chuck
  19. I've worked with two people to get their Rigger Cert. The first one was enthusiastic and did real good. The other, tried to 'teach' me and cut-corners! After about three sessions where, he brought his family and 'burgers' to my shop, like it was a 'party'! I ended the 'session' and told him that he needed to go home and 'think' about how bad he wanted to be a rigger! He thought I was being a 'hard-ass'! He never did persue rigging. I didn't charge for either 'student'. Anyone asks me now, about 'apprenticeships' I quote an up-front price! When I was working on my Senior Cert., I stayed at my instructor's home and slept on a mattress on the floor, in his sewing room. It was quite an experience! Chuck
