  1. Joe....I still use military time despite having retired in 1993....It confuses the heck outta de civilians..... Boomer....who wonders how many Navy Vets can still determine the time according to the ship's bells.....
  2. Me too. Had the best times of my Naval career in the Goat Locker. Boomer....who sez hitting the beach with those Goats made for great memories too....despite the $$$ paid to Bail Bondsmen.....
  3. Boomer.....with sadness over this situation.
  4. Boomer.....who sez any news would be welcomed!!
  5. I am NOT done yet!!! The cottages for the Vets are merely 1 room Cottages (16'x24') which include a bathroom w/shower. They are constructed of landscape ties and have metal roofs. MY plan is to insulate the roofs; install a window AC for each unit; and install indoor/outdoor carpet. Once this is done I hope to have all the Units wired for basic Cable TV and install a nice Flat Screen TV for each unit as well. Boomer.....who hopes he lives long enuff to get all dis stuff done....and if I hit dat Powerball Lottery dis project is really gonna take off like a gorilla wit a road flare stuck up its posterior......
  6. In Dec of 2011 I discovered a homeless Veteran's Shelter in Vinton,La. that was sorely in need of funds. The place was established and is run by one Vietnam Vet and his wife. Because they are religious-based they get NO State or Federal funding. Bert and his wife have maintained this Shelter for the past 28 years with only their own funds and meager donations. On March 17th I and my CVMA Brothers here in SW La. held our Annual Spring "All Patriots Poker Run" to benefit this Vets Shelter. We registered well over 200 Riders and at days end we handed over $7500.00(cash) to the Shelter. Boomer....who sez we don't need the Goobermint to make good things happen...and even de pygmies donated their Dairy Queen funds to this cause.....
  7. The one's (panhandler's) that really irk me are those who portray themselves as homeless Veterans when in fact most of them are NOT homeless nor Vet's......Grrrrrrrr. Boomer....who sez ya gotta ask for Vet's ID before ya toss any cash at a panhandler.....and turn de pygmies loose on the dude if he is a phony.

  14. You can go across the river and visit the Blaine Kern Mardi Gras Museum. They have on display all the BEST Krewe Floats from years past. Don't expect to see any of the Mardi Gras Floats that are newly built for either this year's Mardi Gras or next year's as well...that building is off-limits and has tight security. Keep your guard up...the murder rate has spiked so bad in New Orleans that residents are asking the National Guard to come in. Boomer....a former native who will NEVER live in New Orleans again.

    I'm on the 2nd set of NGK Iridiums for my 06. Pulled the 1st set out when I hit the 60K mark....and those looked as good as the day they were installed. I can't speak as to better mileage because I don't really track gas mileage per se. Performance-wise I am very happy with the Iridiums but that's just ME....What kind of plugs you use is a PERSONAL decision the same as what type of oil you use in your scoot, the brand of tires you run, and what type/style exhaust slip-on's are installed, and the use-frequency of SeaFoam in de gas tank. Boomer....who sez dat's his story and he's sticking wit it.
  16. There are some folks out there who could shoot their eye out.... Boomer....who sez never trust a man who wears a gun and has less than 10 toes....
  17. Ouch....That's gonna hurt when yer Insurance Company gets the news.... Boomer....who sez never ride faster than yer guardian angel can fly.
  18. Every now and then we get a rabid racoon around here. Shooting a firearm within City limits is not an option here. Thankfully none of the neighbors mind hearing the fireworks tho..... Boomer....who sez the pygmies do a good job of tearing up dem coons....when dey is backed up by mah Colt Commander.
  19. Jeff....I took mine off of my 06. As far as I know it is sitting in Kbran's garage so ya might want to contact him and see if he could send it to you. Boomer
  20. Happy Birthday Kent....Hope you have many more and thousands of trouble free miles as well!! Boomer
  21. You won't regret doing the Wall Escort. It will move you to tears once you see it set up....especially at night with the lights in place. Ride safe. Boomer....with respect for our fallen Brothers.
  22. I use my retired Military ID card everywhere we shop. It never hurts to ask for the military discount no matter what business you are patronizing. That 10% discount can really add up over the course of a year!! Boomer....who sez Gas Stations and Dairy Queen do not offer military discounts....
  23. I know several folks who have installed that trim....and within weeks took it off. They can collect road dirt along the edge which is difficult to clean out I was told. Boomer....who sez he cleans enuff dirt off de scoot now as is....
  24. They had one on display at a Car Show in New Orleans way back then. I liked the car so much I bought a plastic model kit and put it all together. Boomer....who sez he liked driving his 64 Ford Falcon wit a 260 cu. in. engine and a 3 speed tranny wit a Hurst speed-shifter more.....
  25. FORREST GUMP GOES TO HEAVEN The day finally arrived. Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven... He is at the Pearly Gates, met by St. Peter himself. However, the gates are closed, and Forrest approaches the gatekeeper. St. Peter said, 'Well, Forrest, it is certainly good to see you. We have heard a lot about you. I must tell you, though, that the place is filling up fast, and we have been administering an entrance examination for everyone. The test is short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven.' Forrest responds, 'It sure is good to be here, St.. Peter, sir. But nobody ever told me about any entrance exam. I sure hope that the test ain't too hard. Life was a big enough test as it was.' St.. Peter continued, 'Yes, I know, Forrest, but the test is only three questions. First: What two days of the week begin with the letter T? Second: How many seconds are there in a year? Third: What is God's first name?' Forrest leaves to think the questions over. He returns the next day and sees St. Peter, who waves him up, and says, 'Now that you have had a chance to think the questions over, tell me your answers.' Forrest replied, 'Well, the first one -- which two days in the week begins with the letter 'T'? Shucks, that one is easy. That would be Today and Tomorrow..' The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, 'Forrest, that is not what I was thinking, but you do have a point, and I guess I did not specify, so I will give you credit for that answer. How about the next one?' asked St. Peter. 'How many seconds in a year? Now that one is harder,' replied Forrest, 'but I thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve.' Astounded, St. Peter said, 'Twelve? Twelve? Forrest, how in Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?' Forrest replied, 'Shucks, there's got to be twelve: January 2nd, February 2nd, March 2nd... ' 'Hold it,' interrupts St. Peter. 'I see where you are going with this, and I see your point, though that was not quite what I had in mind....but I will have to give you credit for that one, too. Let us go on with the third and final question. Can you tell me God's first name'? 'Sure,' Forrest replied, 'it's Andy.' 'Andy?' exclaimed an exasperated and frustrated St Peter. 'Ok, I can understand how you came up with your answers to my first two questions, but just how in the world did you come up with the nameAndy as the first name of God?' 'Shucks, that was the easiest one of all,' Forrest replied. 'I learnt it from the song, ANDY WALKS WITH ME, ANDY TALKS WITH ME, ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN.' St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates, and said: 'Run, Forrest, run.'
