See You Down The Road

After many years serving the classic car community, Wisconsin Collector Car will be shutting down at the end of 2024. Thank you for all of the car show memories!

    Is it possible that a local car club from the Janesville or Beloit or Rock County area could step up and volunteer and help this dealership turn this show into a great show for 2008?

    I did not attend this show last year, but afterwards, I did hear people talking about the show and some of the negatives issues that came up.

    I think Marshall’s got a good idea. No offense to you Skeets, but if you could get some extra help from people who know how a car show is to be ran it will only benefit you and Boucher for shows and attendance down the line thumbsup.gif

    Regular – 3.07
    Mid-grade – 3.17
    Premium – 3.27
    Diesel – 3.39

    Glad I don’t have a Diesel powered vehicle.

    Diesel is $3.69/gal at the Mobil in Mt. Horeb.

    Unleaded is $3.07/a gal per each raping. It cost $62 to fill up my truck each week. Glad I don’t drive far a whole lot.

    Billary’s agenda is purely Socialist, she might as well do her campaigning with a swastika around her arm.

    No Rachael, alcohol did not play a factor in my fall (this time icon_cheesygrin.gif ).

    I spent most of the evening at work clearing the lot, first the snow and then the slushy icy buildup underneath it. I’m still really sore all the way around, so I left a note saying I’m not in tomorrow. I think I’ll go see my chiropractor and get adjusted. Hopefully with some rest that will do the trick.

    So who watched it?

    I did.

    I was impressed with it as they carried this movie as the ‘next chapter’ in the Knight Rider story. Part of me feels it was one big Ford commercial though, but if you can look past that (and you were a fan of the original like me), you will probably enjoy this also. I don’t want to let on any of the story as I don’t want to ruin it for anyone who hasn’t seen it yet.

    They kinda left it as they make turn this into a series again too! thumbsup.gif

    I got home about an hour ago. Man this stuff is terrible. If you don’t ABSOLUTELY HAVE to drive, do not. It is an ice rink. If you think snowy roads are slick….

    About the same time I got home this morning also. It took me an hour and a half to get from Madison to Mt. Horeb. Where I live, you first have to go down a hill, then up one, and while coming up the hill you have to turn right into my driveway and climb yet another hill to get up to the garage. I did OK until I hit my driveway….that’s when my truck slid off into the yard and I got stuck. I got out and tried to get up to the house, but I skated on my feet all the way back down the driveway. While gaining speed, I thought to myself to get into a baseball slide before I get to the street otherwise I’m gonna have big trouble. Well, before I coudl react gravity took over and I landed on my back, and hit my head in the driveway. I’m very sore today, but don’t think I caused any more brain damage than I already have. My back took the brunt of it for what it was worth. I then got up to the house and salted the walks good. I salted the driveway down to my truck and dumped a lot in front of the front wheels for traction. From there I was able to get out and get my rig into the garage.

    I called one of my customers shortly after that and left a message to salt the lot at work. There’s no way I’ll get any traction with the plow the way it is being icy and all, and slamming into a 40K+ Silverado wouldn’t be good either.

    Guess I’ll kick back and wait for the 500 to start. Then go to work for awhile so I can get home to watch the Knight Rider movie tonight thumbsup.gif

    I’ve had enough. I haven’t had a decent nights sleep in forever because I’m either up in the middle of the night, wasting my weekends not having any fun, working all day, etc. This weather sucks. The only thing I keep telling my self is that it’s two weeks until March 1. Usually by the end of March things have started to thaw out…..but I doubt that will happen this year unless we get a lot of rain. Then if we do get a lot of rain, there will be flooding and on and on and on….. drool.gif

    Billary’s daughter was in Madison at the UW Union rallying for her mommy the other day. What better place for die-hard liberal scumbags to gather than the UW Campus…. Of course, the media only shows you the clip of the dirtbag with dreadlocks asking about how to stop the war BangHead.gif

    Obama does stand a better chance than Billary. I think the first change for this country is get rid of the Clintons’ and the Bush’s.
