Must be a better investment than the stock market, had a guy here in Ny do the same thing, won 7 mil in the lottery, bought a beautiful home on the Lake Ontario shoreline and put 110 pounds of marijuana in his garage. Duh!

[SergntMac]

Just stocking up for the party, eh?

[WolfeBros]

Hmmmmm sounds like he could try out for a certain football team I know of. ;)

[Menace]

Gotcha Wolfe...you go, we go, eh?

"You go, we go" is a line of script from the fireman's bible, told best that I ever saw or heard of before, in "Backdraft."

That film was also a "the way it is" truthful demonstration of what it's all about.

I'm not a fireman, and I didn't like firemen very much after what the fireman here in Chicago did in the early '80s. They went on strike, a serious strike, and I never believed until then, that any public safety officer of any responsibility, could just walk out on his responsibilities.

Years later, I came to work on Ron Howard's film project, did some driving on screen, and offered some very, very lightweight technical advice too. I didn't even know the film's name on the set, but the end product became "Backdraft," as you can watch it today.

As I watched the film on the big screen, it enlightened me, and urged me towards being more understanding and accepting, of a Fireman's "troubles."

My point here, seems to be that all things are adjustable, we grow as we learn, and learn as we grow.

Today, I'd rather gun-fight with a bunch of bonafide hard core stick-up types than hold a hose on a fire. I know those rules of engagement, but fight a fire? NO WAY...that Queen b**ch is too unpredictable, and she will take you with her...forever.

You bet Wolfe, I got yer back. You go, I go.

wait a minutenow, what thread is this???

Ohmy...S**t! Sorry.

[Menace]

How much horsepower did you gain ??????????

[Menace]

I'm sorry, I thought this was mercury marauder.net. I must have clicked on National news and movie reviews.

[WolfeBros]

Thanks Sarge.
I am biting my tongue Menace. Don't want to flame anyone on a car BBS.

Sarge you are using Motorcraft 5w20 synthetic then ?

[martyo]

Wolfe, Sarge:

Take a look here:http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1293

What's up with Menance?

[Menace]

Ya me to wolf.

[WolfeBros]

Menace I did not start any of the threads you seem to have a problem with. I do feel that I am a good contributing member of this BBS and will occasionally have my say if I have something to offer up. Since you are a member of this BBS and a fellow Marauder owner I will also listen to what you have to say without prejudice. There are a few off topic threads that come up occasionally as on all good BBS's. We do a pretty good job of staying on track here as I think Logan will attest to. Each thread does have a TITLE though. If the title does not interest you, I suggest you do what I do.....pass it by and find one that does.
Peace Brother. :)

People are complaining about current events (and funny ones at that!), when we have a thread about apples? Come on people... even car nuts like me gotta have SOMETHING else to talk about besides their car!

[WolfeBros]

Welcome Back LML and happy bday you old fart !

[Menace]

Wolfie,I never said you started any thread,but I see the groceries thread drew some interest from you. If people can start threads about the lottery and cocaine then why not apples ?

[Menace]

Don't make me flame you.:flamer:

[WolfeBros]

I have no idea why I have been singled out as your target Menace but you can flame away. Your actions here have been noticed by more people than just me.

[Menace]

I am just giving my opinion like everyone else here.My actions are no different than anyone else's.If you don't like what I have to say then don't read my post! :flamer:

[Menace]

:flamer:

[SergntMac]

"Sarge you are using Motorcraft 5w20 synthetic then?"

Yep, I believe so, Wolfe, seems I got my numbers messed up before. Still not sure what came in the car from the factory, but the dealer has me on the 5W20 diet until he gets the 0W20. Synthetic blend, standard FMC stuff I suppose?

Anyone got a snowball smiley?

[LincMercLover]

Thanks Wolfe! Although... not sure what the Welcome Back is for... didn't know I went anywhere! ;)

[WolfeBros]

LML figured you were out partying !!!!! :D :D

[MAD-3R]

With a garage full!!!!!!!


of cars.... :lol:

[Bigdogjim]

Menace: Don't worry soon the sun will be out and your can go drive the Big Black Car with no snow on the ground! That's the beauty of the web, all knids of info @ no extra charge. Gotta go buy a lotto tickets and stop and get some apples. :lol: :lol:
