    Speaking of sailing, do you ever get seasick?   :orly:

Sometimes.  Not as much if I am concentrating on something though. 

     In that case, I hope you win BIG and sail to Europe on a massive luxury liner with fabulous round-the-clock buffets!   :2thumbsup:

Just wondering what your previous avatar was about. I think there were about 4 or 5 people facing the camera in it.

It is from the Movie And Then There Where None a mystery by Agatha Christie where the people in the island where being killed off one by one as each died one of the Indians in the sculpture they are facing get knocked down.  I was somewhat obsessed with that and a few other old movies when I was little.

Ah ok. I am wondering if my mum has seen this as she likes mystery movies. Will have to ask her.

Have you ever run across a Thermos Cooker from the 50's in your flea marketing?  They're the neatest thing.

The one we have must hold about a half-gallon and is in excellent shape inside, the glass liner is intact.  PA rubbed the worst of the rust and a little of the finish off with steel wool.  Since we're not interested in selling it, the sprucing up's effect on the value doesn't bother us.

Not sure I see lots of kitchen stuff and I am not always sure what some of the stuff is

Your Silverado had an 8.1 if I remember correctly, didn't it? What kind of mileage did you get with it?

It was a 2003 2500HD 8.1l  with a crew cab and an eight foot bed.  I got just 8-8.5mph around town and around 13 on the highway.  The truck weighed somewhere around 6400lbs empty so with a short bed and no crew cab you might bring the weight down enough to get a couple more mpg.

That's about what I get with my non-HD 2500 with a 6.0. I'm thinking about getting an HD at the end of the summer with the 8.1. The Duramax just isn't worth the premium to me, especially with the cost of diesel now.

I loved the truck it had more power than anything I had ever driven.  I pull a small trailer at times it was like it wasn't even there.  The only draw backs where the mileage, which your use to, the turning radius sucks and the parts for the 8.1 are not always in stock

What sports did you like to play as a kid and what were uyou best at?
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Must have missed this the other day sorry. 
Sports :lol1:  I was forced to play baseball at an early age till about age 11,  I was never really very good at it as I had some coordination and fine motor skill issues.  I moved to Florida when I was 11 and became obsessed with swimming but was never on any teams it did help greatly though with my coordination.  I really don't follow or play sports even now.
