Any votes for maple bacon donuts? A short-lived series on cable TV a few years ago had such things.

Yep, yep, I remember when they were doing that experimental phase promotion with ideas from their consumers. I can't remember which idea took the prize though.
I remember I was excited to try it but wasn't a big fan of that Cola Fizz flavor. You're right! I think they came close to having something there. Most times I think it's best to keep a Classic kept simple, instead of jazzing it up all the time.

Although I like regular Cheetos, I'd have to say I'm a bit baffled about the idea of mixing Flamin Hot Cheetos flavor with Mountain Dew
I must say that even though I seldom eat the kind of crap, I thought it was a good idea when Taco Bell came out with Dorito flavored shells.
Last time we went to the State Fair a few years ago, Judy showed me a stand serving bacon flavored ice cream. We didn't try it! I love bacon and I love ice cream, but bacon flavored ice cream? I Think Not! Sometimes a good thing is best left alone.
You know, they sent man to the Moon! It fascinates me how Oreo isn't smart enough to come up with chocolate covered cherry cookies??? Maybe with some of that Double Stuff (cherry) filling in the middle, ya think?
Guys, I hate to break it to you, but the world just might be coming to an end.
This is a real product, and the screen shot is from the Mountain Dew website.
I did not believe this was real when I heard about it, it is, I am amazed this exists.
I present...

Oh the stories I'm sure you could tell that went along with that Van, not to mention the two beauties on the top of your photo Ed. Other things look good in orange too!
And you thought you could sneak one by the Fiddler
Not on my watch this morning...
P.S. 72 - 73 ?
I had a "beater" Ford van just like the orange one in the bottom of this photo. Same color, too.

Oh well, my bad, knowing me I probably sent in the bagpipes back in March as well
So if you got it twice, that's one heck of a deal
P.S. I'd certainly hug Wifey Pooh two or three extra times for a present such as that, ! Ya Lucky Dog you
Good Morning Diners.
David, have fun on your trip!
Busy couple of weeks at w*rk. Today, I get to tell a guy what he needs to do to save his job. Oh joy. That's not normally my job, but somehow it is today.

Whoops, double post, carry on.
Oh well, while I'm here, I think it's one of those Snap-on trucks you see parked in front of the car dealer with all the mechanics running out like a bunch of Kids ramshackling the ice cream truck, consolidated into a big red box...

Good morning Diners. Tea and toast please, Janie.
A busy day today packing a suitcase or two for a few days away. One of my birthday presents a trip to Norway.
Try and catch up later.

My youngest daughter had her hair professionally dyed pink and blue today. It looks amazing. She actually looks like she was meant to have pink hair.
I wonder how it will look in a few weeks.

I will be back tomorrow. I hope everyone is well and safe.
That’s not a tool box!!! That’s a classic Snap-on roll cab with add-ons, the size of a pocket battleship!!!
I think it might be one of the Transformers (more than meets the eye)
SeeYou190 JaBear That’s not a tool box!!! That’s a classic Snap-on roll cab with add-ons, the size of a pocket battleship!!! It cleared the garage door by less than 2 inches, and it turns out it is almost 10 feet (3 meters) long. It always looked so small in the shop.

Kinda like a horse. You never realize how big a horse is until you bring one indoors.

Hello, everyone —
MisterBeasleyAlso, "Why do the British drink warm beer?" Because Lucas makes refrigerators.
Dee Ann's dad was tinkering with this MGB (is it a '67?) and died before he could get anywhere with it. I loaded it up on my trailer and gave it to one of the guys at GE that likes to play with cars. He was still working on it when I retired.

It was Dark British Racing Green but somebody shot it with red at some time in its history. The front fenders wore three colors as they had Harvest Gold underneath it all.
Lucas "claims" to be a source of Quality! Other opinions seem to differ

MisterBeasleyAnd even wash the dirty clothes and rags when you're done, I see!
Yes, the washer and dryer have stayed in the garage.
I wanted to move them inside when I did the remodel, but the additional complication and expense did not seem worth it.
Eventually we will retire the Impala and get a much smaller car. When we do, there will be a lot more room in the garage and access to the washer and dryer will be easier.
Right now, when the car is in the garage the access is a bit tight.

Just had the inspector from my home insurance company here to inspect my roof.
Home insurance rates around here have been skyrocketing, expecially for homes with swimming pools.
I do not have a pool, and my roof is in good shape. I am hoping for the best.
SeeYou190 I have a tool box in my garage, and OBD electronic troubleshooting devices, stocked well enough so that I could repair any failure on my own cars.

My brother used to repair auto mobiles. His shop was not thqt clean (It was a very old building) but he did clean up for about 30 minutes at the end of the work day (impressive to a LION)_
Him used to repair foreign cars only, had all of the manuals (on line--big subscription that one). He insisted on the highest shop rate in town, would not let anybody charge more than he. Raise you another 20 he would. Best shop around, if the deaa,l.er could not fix something, they would send the customer to him.
When he retired he could not sell the business... HE was the business, and he owned the building so any buyer would have to pay rent to him anyway.
So he retired, and kept the building for use as his man-cave. It is a land-marked building, so there is not much you could do with it anyway.
I will go to visit his place at the end of June, early July. He needs mor leopards around his place.
ROBERT PETRICKI think him was commenting on the cleanliness and tidiness of your shop.
Oh, of course. I failed to pick up on that. Sometimes I can be dense about implied meanings and take things way too literally.
I do keep the garage super-neat. The car looks great on the tiled floor. That was worth the effort.

When I stopped working in the shop, and brought it home, I was amazed how big it really is. It weighs over 6,000 pounds, and required a large slide-bed tow truck to deliver it.

I accumlated "threes" of so many tools that I was able to equip two sons-in-law with toolboxes for their garages.
If my youngest ever gets married, I am sure I can make enough for one more.
I have a couple of Truck Tuners and a couple of Kadee coupler guages. When I moved out of Massachusetts I had about eight hammers.
I have three of some tools.
Normally, I start with one. When I need it, I can't find it, and go buy another one.
Then, several years later I need it again, can't find either one, and buy another one.
Then, since I don't ever need it again, all three turn up and take up space in my shed.

If you Need a tool more than three times either buy or make the proper one
At some places I used to work if you needed a tool you had to have three of them. One to use, one to lose, and one to steal.
Good morning Diners. A coffee on the go please, Brunhilda.
A busy couple of days around the house etc..
Hopefully see the train room later. A few things to update.
Stay Safe Everyone.
