Would love to see it. I'm toying with an idea of getting an old "bus" myself. I want one with flip up windshields. Been thinking about taking wifey and the girls on a cross country trip in one. One of these days things should fall into place, hopefully before they get out of high school, they're in middle school now. Monk |

Attempt at HUMOR. Two motor-heads get together for a cuppa coffee, put together a few engines whilst chatting 'bout this & that. Humor. See, one guy he's got a shirt all lumpy with tools & parts & stuff, an' the OTHER guy's got a shirt fully crankcases an piston rods & old propellers and they sit down an... an... mebbe not. Nice visit though, sitting in the patio, swapping Cancer stories (Steve's got some too, you know), enjoying each other's company... Life is short. Sieze the day. -Bob |

(According to Muslin dogma, it is a sin to reproduce the human form [only God is allowed to do that] ...which is why you see all the statues defaced by having their nose broken off.) But the gnomes were not quite human, which made the question of defacing them [or literally, destroying them] something of a religious puzzle. Plus the fact that everyone referred to it as "Sgt. Gnome," and assigned it the duty of watching over their belongings whenever they were out in the field. Sgt. Gnome was 'transferred' to the new outfit when our daughter's tour was up and in so far as I know, still mounts guard over the girl's hooch at Kandahar. -Bob |
