Chuckster, Thank you for the offer; that would be great. I'm typically hesitant to try something out that I don't know what it does or how it works.

Many moons ago I was a programmer (FORTRAN) but I never got into using most of these fancy new communication methods available on these "portable computers" that masquerade as phones. For years I avoided getting a phone that was smarter than me! (In fact for years I avoided getting a cellular phone at all; I left that to the DW). It is interesting that my adult nieces and nephews don't "talk" with us by phone - we must text them - they'll respond to that. And I need them to show me what to do the first time with many things on the phone! Makes me feel like a technological troglodyte sometimes.

I have a photo somewhere of when my department finally terminated the lease on the card punch/interpreter. My first version of FORTRAN was F2 on an IBM 1800 (it had "massive" storage capacity: 64K bytes core and 5 MB interchangable hard disks; this unit did not have a tape drive). I never got past F77; I suspect the computer priests decided not to install it (or maybe we had moved on to smaller platforms: Prime, DEC Alpha, IBM RS6000 and a box running HPUX).

In the late 70's while in college and taking fluid dynamics I think, instead of hand calculating plots to determine temperature and pressure distribution within distillation columns, I wrote a Fortran program to do the calculation and print out contour plots showing the individual plates within the column. Had to use punch cards of course. Instructor didn't like the approach and said that computer plots are not accurate enough! I should have quit school and sold the program.

#8 - Even duct tape can't fix stupid - but it sure does muffle the sound.


#9 - Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could put ourselves in the​ ​dryer for ten minutes, then come out wrinkle-free and three sizes smaller?


#10 - Lately, I've noticed people my age are so much older than me.


#11 - "Getting lucky" means walking into a roomand remembering why I'm there.


#12 - When I was a child, I thought nap time was punishment. Now it​ ​f​​​​eels like a mini vacation.


#13 - Some days I have no idea what I'm doing out of bed.

If you see a truck pulling a trailer that's labeled helium how is it kept from floating? We encountered one last week and 'assumed'that it was empty.

I always wondered what it was like being the first nitroglycerin delivery driver?

Dang but you must be as old (or more so) then me!!!

Then there was that semi dog legging it with a broken trailer along almost two full lanes of I-81 and I-84 in PA today that was holding up traffic for miles. He did that!!

Armstrong Tire was purchased by Pirelli Tire in 1989. And yes, I am old most days. Just got back from a trip to northern Newfoundland with DW and the pooch, 6,040 miles. It reminded me that I am 69 years old. (Yes, on the Roadking)

Younker - not quite as ancient as I have gotten but .....

No experience with Pirelli tires so far but had Armstrong rhinos way back in the day.

Not made it that far North but have 'done' Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia/Cape Breton as well as New Brunswick (actually was in NB last month again as a part of running up the Maine Coast with the 5er).

MadMax, I don't see a problem if you simply tow with the rear slide completely extended. All heavy cargo (Yes, DW included):lol: should be moved to the extended slide (not the LP bottles) and that way you'll be close to negative tongue weight.

Is there a veteran's thread on here?

From what I've seen there isn't one. However, many of us are Veterans and have mentioned our service at one point or another.

There is not a "Veteran's Social Group" on this forum, however if anyone is interested in starting one, all you'd need to do is click on the "COMMUNITY" tab in the header bar on any forum webpage, a menu will open, select "SOCIAL GROUPS", a list of social groups will open. At the bottom of that page, click on "START A NEW GROUP".

Or, go here: http://www.keystoneforums.com/forums/group.php

NOTICE: I just found out that madmaxmutt has created a veteran's social group in that section of the forum. Anyone who is interested in joining the group of reading the comments from members of the group can do so at: http://www.keystoneforums.com/forums/group.php?groupid=79

Enjoy if you're interested. Membership is free (just like this forum) and open to all members.
