Goood Moanin Friends...
V-ger is no longer in the stink bug position... back on the ground all four tires. No jack stands, no friggin worry about puttin the tank back in... it was much easier than taking it out... everything went well. new hoses, clamps. Then the cheap little gas filter I put on it burst... Aint life grand. Now I know why, the old filter was metal... gee think I'd of knew this. Sometimes I'm so dump, stupid is an upgrade lol...
............................................................................................................
I'm still usin the periods cause sometimes the paragraphs don't work. Who knew lol...Well if all goes well I'll have a new metal gas filter in the old V-ger by nite fall.. and hopefully it will run well. gonna recheck them spark plugs, just cause they new don't mean they work well. Wouldn't be the first time I replaced the new spark plugs... I really wish I could afford some good high dollars parts... not these cheap delco thing mo giggies... Gee a nice old falcon station wagon with a straight 200 cubie inch six would be nice lol... easy to repair and maintain, and great gas mileage... i like the body style too....
...............................................................................................................

Good luck w/the van, Russ........sounds like you are very clever mechanically!! You will get her up and running.........
Peace.......
Sorry that you had some problems with your housing.Iam sure goverment isnt easy to deal with.I do not agree with the way the goverment lays its plans out for americans who have worked hard in our country.But I wont go into my views because thats a rant I just cant get off of.
Iam glad that you got your van fixed its not much trouble to replace that metal gas filter..hope you get it up and running today real good.
Theres nothing quiet like being independant and having your own transportation.So I do hope you the best with yours.
How is that van on gas? My late husband liked vans the short wheel cute little vans.He owned a couple during our marriage ha dthem all decked out..but they were real gas hogs.
Mostly he liked motorcycles that was his passion he used to race those suped up things at the race tracks here in houston.He won a lot of trophys racing but used to scare me half to death.
He started racing stock cars back in Ohio before I met him as a young man.He would buy old wrecks and he and his buddys would beef then up and he would win.I have several articals from thats towns news paper with his picture in it for his wins and trophys.
Then he came to houston and got in with the big boys I met him shortly after that.Funny thing is my late husband was a professional business man dressed in a suit everyday for work.
You would have never guessed that his hobby was racing fast motorcycles.
I always had bike parts laying around in my garage.With the loud sound of those thundering pipes I used to say he was terrorizing the neighborhood LOL.I rode with him for a while he was good at handeling those things but they were too fast for me.I need my feet on the ground.
I always said he must have had a death wish because he loved to live dangerously.After he died his friends and coworkers said he was a ledgend in his own time.He was definately a rare breed thats for sure,always a marine at heart and a heart as big as the moon.
Gosh how did I get on that? Sorry!!
Russ with the wife thing so sorry mann thats a toughy for sure.You think you know a person only to find out the unexpected.Stuff like that leaves scars,been there and over it so it is possiable to get past it all.Things like that only make us wiser in many good positive ways.
Thank god for DJ and your daughters and for the love and pleasure they bring you.They are blessings that came out of that marriage.If you never find anyone else be content to be happy with russ.Because another dont make us who we are in the first place.We find happiness within first before we can give some of it away to another.
Have a great day my friend.
Rachel
I know what it is like to deal with the housing authority. I worked for them for 3 years and 2 days. I was a painter for them between 1992 and 1995. I remember one time we ran out of work with the paint crew, and the head of the housing authority had us go take down screens from 5 different apartment complexes and replace them with new ones. The problem was the old screens were only 4 months old. They threw away over $200,000 worth of perfectly good screens because they said they had to spend $1.3 million so they could get more money from the government. Our government does some mighty foolish things. I feel you on the wife thing also. My first wife cheated on me a time or two or three or four or five, my gosh who knows just how many times. God bless.
Hey Russ,
Sure hope you get that up and running. It has seemed to keep ya busy!! I know you don\'t want to use the other transportation but don\'t feel bad for using what you have to use. After all you did your share of work and there are times we have to do what needs to be done.
Sorry to hear about the mess up with the housing and notice and all that. That had to of been stressful and why they pick on little stuff like that just ticks me off. My cousin use to live in an assistance place like that and well it wasn\'t they best place and to pick on some of the stuff they do you seems ridiculous because there are sooooooooo many other important issues that need to be looked at like drugs and stuff like that. Just don\'t understand people!!! Then some don\'t even care what they put some people through. SOrry for the ramble just upsets me. I hope it all works out for you!
As for the X thing I am so sorry you had to be put through that and what you are still going through. I really hope and pray you get through that one day and you find someone that really appreciates and loves you for who you are!!! Even a good friendship and or companion. If you let someone get to know you they would love you for you and your sense of humor and personality. If not at least you learn to love yourself and know what a good person you are. WIsh so much that you could see that over all you been through and led to believe from those that hurt you in the past and that you get control for yourself and stop letting them keep it for you to this day. YOu deserve so much more then that!!!! I agree with Rachel you do have the blessings of your children from it all. I know how much they mean to you, kids sure keep you going. I know mine do. Well suppose I have went on long enough. Wishing you all the best and hope you have a wonderful weekend my friend!!! Take care of yourself!!!
Yeah I do have the blessing of my children, and I was laughing my tail off thinking of the ex and the judge. Did I tell you the judge and the chief of Police were my fishing buddies lol.... Hey I didn\'t own my wife lol... I will say it was never a dull moment lol,..
When I think back at my marriage, I tend to find the laughter about life, gee God knows I have enough Pain. I truely wish Debb the best in life hope she is happy. I know I am... I thank her for our children. thanks Friends Ya\'ll are great...
