Santa brought me Jeep stuff!

Ssung to the tune of You picked a Fine Time to Leave Me Lucille

You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel, Four rusted lug nuts and a leaky bead seal. Been through some hill climbs, been through some pond slime, But this timed the hurtin won't heal.

You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel ...

Dude, when Christmas arrives on New Year's, somebody screwed up! You should be pissed, and kicking some sorry

Nevermind.

I guess the Spirit of the Season didtates a bit of tolerance for missed deadlines.

I gotta address a few of the finer points of your posat though. "had it put on" ??? What's that all about? Lights up the fur piece??? If the fur needs lighting ... nevermind, that's just klinky ...

Thank You Bill! I second the motion!

LOL! I am going to have to memorize that one.

: Dude, when Christmas arrives on New Year's, somebody screwed up! You : should be pissed, and kicking some sorry

It was all in shipping ALL of it. One went to california, one left the warehouse and ended up in the twilight zone, the tailgate was stomped on by shippers. No sense being pissed, nothing can be done, everything is either refundable or insured.

Heck yea! After all,he could have gone to a Jewelry store and bought something little ans twinkly and played it safe, but that wouldn't have been any fun at all!

: I gotta address a few of the finer points of your posat though. "had it : put on" ??? What's that all about?

Well, ya see, it's like this Pilgrim. It involved drilling a six pack of holes in the roof, dropping the headliner, removing parts of the dash and wiring into the fuse panel. It's not as if we COULDN'T it's just that this way, if something fries, it's still covered by warranty. Since my rig has only 4500 miles on it, it seemed the safest approach. Otherwise, I would have been out there with my own hole saw.

Lights up the fur piece??? If the : fur needs lighting ... nevermind, that's just klinky ...

*snikker* Yea.. that's just me.. Kinky Kate LOL

you much funny! :

I gotta print that for the guy up the road from me, last month he had the

35" back tire pass him, saw him on the side of the road, offered to go home and get some lug nuts for him, but I just had to follow the trail of shinny things on the road, easier to leave bread cumbs to find your way.

In its original form, from way back when...: =)

--- Original message --- i have a 93 YJ while off roading in france i broke the half shaft and the back wheel fell off. Does anyone know of a kit to keep wheels on in the event of it happening again?

--- response 1 --- We have an old country-western song that goes by the title, You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me Loose Wheel. It was a real hit over here, and is a still favorite at karaoke bars.

--- response 2 --- Four rusted lug nuts and a leaky grease seal. You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel.

... went on some hill climbs. Been through some pond slime, but this time we're late for a meal.. You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel.

Yep, you'll be doing I-40 either way.

I don't have any lies to tell this year, I only took one doe, then this past weekend went to sight in my new muzzleloader, and found out it had been assembled with the wrong firing pin. I was 400 miles from home when I found THAT out. No hunting for me.

The truth is much worse than lies this year. Maybe next year I can tell a great 'ole big whopper.

Well....

I still don't know exactly when we will go, have to talk to the gal I got the gate from. It will prolly be near the end of the week. If you'd like to, we could get together for a cup of mud on our way one way or the other. You show me yours, and I'll show you mine - Jeeps that is LOL

No lies huh, well that isn't all bad. Hubs hasn't been hunting in years. Not that he doesn't WANT to, but for some reason he just doesn't do it. I hunt with my camera, got a couple of nice bucks last year and entire herds of doe and flocks of turkey . Unfortunately, you cannot put things shot with a camera into the freezer.

Kate Oh... you can email me at svtkate AT excite DOT com if you would like to have that cup of coffee!

It's been a while since I sung that song. It's good to have a historian on the group to keep us all dialed in.
