Gangster

I just realized because September has five weekends this year the calendar has pushed the Hershey event past the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, (second Monday in October) this is a bummer for me as I have commitments for that week that I may not be able to get out of. I'm still holding my hotel Hershey reservations until the last minute unless life changes. Bob

It warmed up to -16 C this afternoon, when I went out to clear the +6" of overnight snow from the driveway. I vow my next snowblower will have heated hand grips! It is supposed to go down to -25 tonight, but they say relief is on the way in a couple of days. Bob

I flew directly over the North Pole on a flight from Toronto to Beijing last Wednesday evening, and even from 39,000 ft, I could clearly see the workshop lights burning brightly. I can not see the work being done if Santa was not there in person to supervise. That has to be an imposter..........or Bernie in the photo. Bob

Here are pictures that I took of the speedster at the Saturday show and the Dayton Packard Museum speedster that I took on the Green Field on Thursday. BTW I also attached a couple of pictures of a 1916 Speedster that I took at the Gilmore Museum in Michigan a couple of years ago. Bob

Try tineye <https://www.tineye.com/> I've not used it but have been told it works well. Bob

Annie, I would suggest trying airbnb, you may find a whole house or large condo/apartment for less than the price of three hotel rooms. Last year when my usual hotel was booked for the Friday already when I booked my other nights, I used the service for the first time and I got a room close to Hershey for a quarter of the price of a regular hotel through them. I had planned on using airbnb this year for the full stay, but after accumulating a pile of hotel points over the past few months I'm able to stay at Harrisburg Sheraton again using points and not use any USDs.

This may have been posted here already. I found this on the Packard Info list today, 'how to pick up a car in Turkey', seems they have this down to a science. Can you imagine clearing out a disabled car causing a slowdown on a major highway in sixty seconds of arrival instead of sixty plus minutes. Yes this could cut down on Police and tow truck drivers overtime, but I think we could cope. http://digg.com/2017/turkey-tow-truck? Bob

I watched a guy talk on TV this evening for an hour and twenty minutes, he used 'very very' at least twice, may need to check where he was born, sounded frenglish to me. Bob

Sounds like perfect FRENGLISH to me, the use of very very was the tip off. Bob

We watched the first episode of the new show last week on Discovery Velocity, its now called Guild Garage. The main reason my wife watches the shows is because of Roger, Edd and Larry, they remind her of her 80 year old mechanic up the street who has looked after her cars for the past 35 years. Bob

IMO, this looks like a photoshop job. I really do not see the Donald even owning a vehicle, yes maybe an Escalade or two leased by one of his companies would likely be the extent of it. With the Buy America mantra the off shore vehicles, if he did own them in the past would be long gone. Bob

Likely fake news....must have been a slow real news day ;-) Bob

I can dig it. Bob

OMG, my new car! I don’t want to look up to see what KING KONG has just done to the Empire State Building!!
