    Happy New Year!

     



    I can't believe 2016 went by so fast! Here it is coming into another year. It should be a real weird one with all the stuff going on with the new "prez" coming in. It'd be nice if the tards went away. Anyhow, I hope you all have a safe and Happy New Year!

    Get use to it.............each year you age they go even faster.............it must be some kind of speed secret or something.

    I got an email from a friend that had some comment about "....new year, another chance to get it right." I have no idea what "it" is, and how "right" is defined, but after all this time I've come to accept that humans need to cling to such simple notions to help get through the day. But enough with approaching the soap box.........................

    Take your best shot at a prosperous new year y'all..........ya just might enjoy it.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Happy New Year, it was a crazy year last year but I think every year is crazy when I look back on them. Another year of new starts, but every day is a new start, we don't need a calendar to make it only once a year. I hope every one has a blessed 2017.

    Yes time does accelerate with each new year! It seems cars do too. A friend just bought his wife the 2017 version of a mustang. I thought I'd tease his wife about the car so I asked if she got the Hybrid or the electric model. She replied she didn't think it came that way. I then asked if it was a 5.0 Lt v8, she said, I'll have Jon tell you, I've got no idea!
    So my buddy Jon says it's a 4 cylinder. 2.3 liter turbocharged four cylinder. 310 horsepower. 320 foot pounds of torque. Well I guess being out of anything new in the auto department, I had no Idea these engines even existed! It would be fun to get one of these engines and make a modern Hotrod power plant in an old classic.
    Happy New Years to you all!

    Happy new year.

    It should bring big changes, perhaps for us all.

    I'm doing something about that to try and make it a reality.
