Technical: How to lube a speedometer.
Thank you Joe. :) @Founder, I'm sure he loved it! I enjoyed learning and hanging around and doing the grunt work. lol.— July 21, 2010 8:32 p.m.
Technical: How to lube a speedometer.
66 Ford PU...when we fill the tank, full of course, the gauge shows half tank only.... I love classics and custom classics. I had a 68 Cougar, a while back. My father and I rebuilt the engine together, a 302, added a 720 Melling cam, and a 750 Holley carb...it was a floor shift automatic, but it hauled cookies! lol.— July 21, 2010 6:58 p.m.
Technical: How to lube a speedometer.
Joe, Thanks for this post, my hubby may find this handy for his speedometer..in the 66. Know anything about gas gauges. Personally, I think it's the float and not the gas gauge. Just haven't had the time to check. btw. Are you a mechanic or enthusiast of antique vehicles? Or both? We love antique vehicles. Have some old Apache chrome in the barn. :)— July 21, 2010 5:22 p.m.

Michael....
Hey All, How are you this Sunday? Hope all is well. I just got back home and finally turned on my puter. First off, Thanks to those who have welcomed me. Much appreciated. And to those who have critiqued in a teacher student kind of way. Much appreciated. Very much respected. And I learned a couple things. *The reason I started blogging here is, someone from the Reader emailed me and said I should blog a story I had written. I never added that particular article, because it was no longer needed. The content was about a missing child. To those who criticized blatantly...If you would like to know more about me in depth, so that I may "Humanize myself." Why don't you just ask...I will give you a run down. But forgive me if I come off self-centered or precious. (insert sarcastic grin here.) I guess I'm not quite sure how to write about what I think or about myself, without including myself. I suppose I will have to figure that one out. :) (note those darned little dots, but only in threes.*wink*) Yes, I have a sense of humor. Obviously. As far as writing. I had one class in 9th grade. One semester. And yes, I am sure I use those little dots and commas way too much and my punctuation is terrible.. But if I was going for a prize or publication, I'm thinking, ummmm, editor. But Thanks for cluing me in about the cash. Who knew. Don't worry, I don't expect to get rich. I'm a realist about my talents. Or in some peoples opinions, lack there of. lol. I may be a sloppy writer, it is likely cause I write what comes to mind and rarely do I embellish or correct. And am guilty of empathetic writing. So forgive me my literary sins. I will try not to be a lazy writer. I would do 5 "Hail Marys" but I'm not Catholic. No matter, I will keep writing. Likely the way I do now, without too many little dots. (that's a habit even I would like to break.) Whether you love my writing or hate it. I think it has impressed upon your mind. And probably, in some cases, burned away a couple brain cells to boot. I say this in humor, not to offend. As a post note: Those Hallmark writers make big money. I have a friend who writes for that company. Maybe I missed my calling. :) Peace be with you, J.— June 27, 2010 5:55 a.m.

Love, The Art of Apology, and The Grace of Acceptance.
MsGrant, Not hard to believe at all. :) When Steve and I became engaged, He lost his job, and mine was cut to less than 20 hours many years ago....but for us all the excess has never been a need or want. We live a "simple life" as friends have called it. We too have older vehicles and I owned the house when we met. And our friends always know, if I am there so is Steve. We like being best friends. My girlfriends have often joked, that we need to buy our husbands outfits for girls night out...lol.— June 17, 2010 2:46 p.m.
Love, The Art of Apology, and The Grace of Acceptance.
SDaniels, You are very right. The biggest test of our relationship, happened with the rest of the economically hit this year. The work I do is demanding, rarely pays, except for the fact people smile and say thank you. My husband became *minorly* (not really a word) ill, and then lost his job, his retirement, and pension. Bunk! During this time, we lost 5 family members, 3 immediate....If that didn't tear us apart...I'm thinking we are on the right path.— June 17, 2010 2:18 p.m.
