    Need/Desire

    I want to contribute pictorially to these forums but my lack of computing skills is becoming frustrating. I have a digital camera w/pics I'd like to share but they're on the camera. Getting them from there to here is a mindbuster for me. The mobile, for lack of a better word, "geeks" want...

    Best shot

    Failed. Survival instincts have kicked in. Couldn't put out the fire. Did I mention she's Israeli, equally at home with an Auzi as a meat cleaver. Since cooking lessons aren't on my bucket list, I'd appreciate a PM when the cougars are gone.

    Disappearing unread posts boldness

    Since loading the much faster goggle chrome, I'm experiencing that when I reply to any post, I lose the boldness (darker blue) that tells me I haven't read another post. Now, after replying to any post, I have to check time of any other post to know if I've read the post. Solution or deal with it?

    Hero's

    Once upon a time,early 70's, I was a young rambunctious lad, 20 something, I took my '61 Ford pickup, three on the tree, over the mountains to "apple blossom festival" for a good time. The mountains killed my second gear and I limped into Wenatchee. Didn't know what to do or how to get back...

    Slow click response

    Is it my IE or has the site slowed down due to all the active ads? When I click on a post the wait, to see it, is becoming quite irritating.

    Just remembered something

    "I think that I shall never hear, a poem lovelier than beer, a brew which Joe's bar keeps on tap, with golden base and snowy cap, the foamy stuff I drink all day, until my memory melts away. Poems are made by fools I fear, but only Bud can make a beer. PUIing:D

    yesterday

    Overheard an old codger (posters here exempted) saying, "When I was a kid, my mom would send me to the store with a dollar and I would come home with a bag of potatoes, two loaves of bread, three bottles of milk, a chunk of cheese, some tea and two chocolate bars. Can't do that anymore...

    highjacked computer

    My son in law's computer has been jacked and now all his contacts, including me, are receiving annoying and some disturbing spam. Is there a way to stop and maybe catch the highjacker?

    My white force 125 has the model#1251X6A. I've read that white is "85. ID plate says "86, so what"s up?

    '85 Force 125hp kingpin

    Steering was stiff so I broke down to the king pin. Lower leg covers are off and all pieces seperated. The king pin is fairly rusted with pitting where the nylon bushings sit. Does this call for replacement or will grease fill the voids and be OK? Is a pin available? S/S? While I've got it this...

    86 Force 125

    Hi all, Knowing nothing about boats I went and bought an 86 Bayliner w/ an 86 Force 125 on it. During show and tell, the seller fired it up for me. It smoked a bit but being a 2 stroke I figured that was acceptable. Now empty your mouths of anything that will foul the moniter screen or keyboard...
