Don't forget 'three on the tree'.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

Heck man! I'm this old!


I can only remember owning two with a floorboard starter...


Don't forget 'three on the tree'.

And only a few with 3 on the tree... To include my beloved '65 El Camino... Which I converted soon enough to a M22 rockcrusher 4spd on the floor.

Dang! I still miss that thing.

Yup the good old days, now the dimmer switches are in democrats heads but none of them know how to turn on the high beams **nononono* and I often feel like mashing down with my foot to try and get the brights on.

How God must weep at humans' folly! Stand fast! God knows what he is doing!
Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

When the Marine Police Cruiser wasn't parked in its slip (at the end), we had a similar pier we rode junker bicycles off of. We'd tie ropes to them, recover them, and do it again. Great fun, as long as you didn't land on the frame...

Just might be their funniest one yet. Make sure and watch until the very end.
You're everywhere I go, I am not alone
You call me as Your own to know You and be known.
You are holy!
And I fall down on my knees.
I can feel Your presence here with me.
Suddenly I'm lost within Your beauty,
Caught up in the wonder of Your touch.
Here in this moment I surrender to Your love.

Just heard on Fox news that two buses of immigrants have been dropped off this morning at Vice President Kamala Harris's home in Washington. It's good to hear that Texas doesn't have to take care of them all. I'm thinking/hoping that maybe the word will get out that they will be sent to a different type of climate (snow), that they have probably not ever been in. So far 8000 immigrants have been sent up north. Is there a donation place to send a contribution to keep this up? :amen: @ corbe pings were good, I see now how taking back something can feel like.  :banghead:
