What did you ask Santa for?

Dec 14, 2005 33 Replies

A new stock for an old rifle. It was my Dad's and when he died it came ot me. A relative had been in the process of shaping a new stock for it and it never got done. I always Dad would like to see it finished. It's a reworked 7mm Mauser with a bull barrel.

If anyone knows of a good place to get a stock fitted in San Diego, please let me know.

Kate,

I caught her in a lie about a boy she is seeing. Instead of admitting she lied, she unleashed a tirade on me about how she's an adult now and she can do as she pleases. She's an 18 year old mother of a 3 year old son. Do the math on that for yourself.

She lives with her mother, and this all happened back in July. Haven't heard from her since.

I am happy when my daughter doesn't speak, she is nicer then

Snow did pass the time by typing:

3.3k Ohms according to the VIC schematic

/ / VIC G36>---------o o--------->GND |_ _| \/\/ 3.3k

It looks like a switch with a 3.3k bypass resistor Only thing is it doesn't say what location idicates full/low. I'm guessing open=low since dropping off the connector triggers the VIC.

Ah, a potted plant.

I gave up on live trees a while back. Not that I don't like them or the smell, but the costs around here are outrageious and the trees are not that good looking.

Ahhhhhh I see! Do you think that she is embarrassed because she was caught in the lie and embarrassed because this guy is probably someone her father would not approve of and is trying to defend her decision so she doesn't look like a fool?

I have a 22 year old kinda like that. *sigh* You have your hands full with that one. Maybe you ought to just pick up the phone, and talk to her.

Don't bring up anything controversial, just a nice "Hi honey, how ya doin? How's the baby? Have you gone and played in the mud lately?"

Daughters seem to like avoidance when it comes to this sort of thing. Well, both of mine do anyway. Sometimes it's the only way we can make up if by just not mentioning it again.

I hope you get what you want for Christmas. My hubby has a 40 year old daughter that hasn't spoken to him since we were married. Seems she didn't like that he was remarrying after he divorced his first wife - her mom. It's too bad, because he misses her a bunch and really does not know why she is angry with him.

Prolly TMI, but what the hell, this way you know you aren't the only dad in this kind of a pickle!

One way to find out! Anything I can do to help a guy get a plasma cutter.

Oh He'd like YOU!

That wouldn't be too hard to build. Would be nice to see one and get a few measurements.

Hubs thinks it would be doable too. He said he would like to tackle it. Like you said though,the measurements would be nice. I'm just not too sure how hard it would be to duplicate the spiffy way they have the signal lights and fog lamps set in.

I sure do like the look of it though.

I asked for patience and tranquilizers. My DH just had knee surgery and is driving me crazy. He tries to make me drive him around in his van because "I can't get in the Jeep with my leg".

Got new tires this past summer. Would LOVE to have a lift kit.

The lights shouldn't be a problem with a plasma cutter. Just remember to cut the holes smaller than needed, then use a grinder to fine tune the holes. The round holes can be filled using tubing. The rectangular holes: I would flush mount using the 73-87 Chevy front fender marker lights. You can also cut that hole a little larger than the light you want to use, then back fill the hole with

3/16 plate and then mount the light to the fill plate. That would give you a slightly recessed light. I think that would look good too.

Good Luck! Jim Smith

It's amazing the lengths I'll go to not to have to ride in Mr.H's van!

I'm asking Santa for an orange Jeep hat, and a photo printer.
