Ignore (EOM)

Tru,

Think small 2 person trailer to tow behind the Cobra. Of course it must be made to look like a Cobra. Heck, save time and buy them a Cobra to drive back with you and everything will be fine.

Wayne,

No studying for blood tests. Just practicing to keep the screaming down to a minimum when I see the needles. Always did hate those things. My dentist tries to sneak up on me when he has to give me a shot to do some dental work. Also for any dentists out there. Do they teach in dental school that once you have a patients mouth full of everything that can be stuffed in it, you are supposed to start asking questions of said patient?

I wish I had your money. The older is starting college. I am broke. But, I am happy.

Yes. it's needles for me everytime as well. Worst is when they miss and you are brused.

I found a picture of the ramps with the car off that I will tack in here and you can see that they are clear all the way through. The carpet is for my comfort in Summer when I want to take a nap while working under the car. [/b]

Ron,

You're probably kidding about taking naps under the car but I actually do... I've got a creeper with a adjustable head rest and I've been know to close my eyes for more then just a few minutes under the car..

[Ron61]

Al,

Actually I wasn't kidding. On some of those lazy type afternoons, when I decide to work some on the car I take some diet Pepsi and something to snack on while I lay on the creeper planning the most logical way to do something. I once slept over 4 hours while working under there. I figure that if I am asleep, I won't be breaking anything, and the carpet helps make it a little cooler.

I remember the last urine test I had to take, 1993.

The results came back:

"Congratulations! Your mare is pregnant!"

Only in Oklahoma. The Department of Corrections had contracted with a veterinary testing lab for our random urine drug tests.

I still love it here.

Now that was good. What did you have. Boy or Girl??

CREATIVE LAWYERS
One evening, after attending the theater, two gentlemen were walking down the avenue when they observed a rather well dressed and attractive young lady walking ahead of them. One of them turned to the other and remarked, "I'd give $250.00 to spend the night with that woman" Much to their surprise, the young lady overheard the remark, turned around and replied, "I'll take you up on that offer."
She had a neat appearance and a pleasant voice, so after bidding his companion good night, the man accompanied the young lady to her apartment. The following morning the man presented her with $125.00 as he prepared to leave. She demanded the rest of the money, stating, "If you don't give me the other $125.00, I'll sue you for it." He laughed, saying, "I'd like to see you get it on these grounds."
Within a few days, he was surprised when he received a summons ordering his presence in court as a defendant in a lawsuit. He hurried to his lawyer and explained the details of the case. His lawyer said, "She can't possibly get a judgment against you on such grounds, but it will be interesting to see how her case will be presented."
After the usual preliminaries, the lady's lawyer addressed the court as follows: "Your honor, my client, this lady, is the owner of a piece of property, a garden spot, surrounded by a profuse growth of shrubbery, which property she agreed to rent to the defendant for a specified length of time for the sum of $250.00. The defendant took possession of the property, used it extensively for the purpose for which it was rented, but on evacuating the premises, he paid only $125.00, one-half of the amount agreed upon. The rent was not excessive, since it is restricted property, and we ask judgment to be granted against the defendant to assure payment of the balance."
The defendant's lawyer was impressed and amused by the way his opponent had presented the case. His defense, therefore, was somewhat different from the way he originally planned to present it.
"Your honor," he said, "my client agrees that the lady has a fine piece of property, that he did rent such property for a time, and a degree of pleasure was derived from the transaction. However, my client found a well on the property around which he placed his own stones, sunk a shaft, and erected a pump, all labor performed personally by him. We claim these improvements to the property were sufficient to offset the unpaid amount, and that the plaintiff was adequately compensated for the rental of said property. We, therefore, ask that judgment not be granted.
The young lady's lawyer answered thus:
"Your honor, my client agrees that the defendant did find a well on her property. However, had the defendant not known that the well existed, he would never have rented the property. Also, upon evacuating the premises, the defendant removed the stones, pulled out the shaft, and took the pump with him. In doing so, he not only dragged the equipment through the shrubbery, but left the hole much larger than it was prior to his occupancy, making the property much less desirable to others. We, therefore, ask that judgment be granted."
In the Judge's decision, he provided for two options: "Pay the $125.00 or have the equipment detached and provided to the plaintiff for damages."
The defendant wrote out a check immediately.

JT,

Very good. I am going to send that to a friend of mine who has a more than casual aquaintance with courts and judgments that would make great stories. Maybe he will tell it to the judge in his next case.

Steal from lawyers


Jack and Mugs, two second-story men from Flatbush, were comparing notes on recent burglaries.

"Didja get anything on that last heist?" Jack asked.

"Nuttin' at all," Mugs admitted. "Toins out that the guy that lives there's a lawyer."

"Jeez, ain't that the breaks," his friend sympathized.

"Didja lose anything?"

I sure am glad we do not have a topic here.

[hey,littlecobra]

hehehehe. Fred and Big guy!

[Ron61]

Fred,

I think it was you that asked about the ramps getting in the way when working under the car. I posted a picture of them back a page or so in this thread. If it wasn't you, sorry.

Big Guy,

You are ok now. We have had a few posts in between anything that looked as it might dvelop into a real thread. And Tru will break that up if it does start to get onto a topic for to long. He loves a break from shoveling snow.

Ron,
I think your lift is what would fit my garage and needs.Getting it with the option to lay it down flat would be perfect.

Gary Morris posted saying The Royal Rhubarb has one too.

Your Torino Cobra picture sure brings back a lot of fun memories.
Mine was Indian Fire Red and didn't have the hood scoop.

[Ron61]

Fred,

The lay flat was not an option when I got mine. It just came standard that way. Pull the pins that hold the back legs on and the ramps lay flat on the floor. Back legs are easy to move as they aren't big and bulky. Carpet for sleeping under the car is something that you have to get.
Also one more word of advise. The ramps are powder coated and if your tires are the least bit wet when you try to back on, they want to spin and go off to the side. I fixed it by going to the hardware store and buying some of that stuff they stick on boats that is sort of grain so you don't slip. Works great. I was at our April Car show a couple of years ago and they had a display there and were trying to get a Superbee on the ramps while the dew was still heavy and it was spinning and wanting to slide. I told them what I had done and they went right to the store and got some of that stuff and no more problem. I think Casaleenie got something and put on his too.

Ron

[hey,littlecobra]

quit posting about ramps here! Go to my other thread! It's too confusing, and you are creating a topic here! Go, I say, go!!
