  1. Thanks Puc. Will tell him as soon as I'm done with this wedding. My dream is to make some videos showing how to revive my 83. Between us the video is no problem. It's the wrenching we're having trouble with.
  2. I'm jealous. Haven't seen that since they moved from the warehouse in Birmingham.
  3. I guess nobody rode the track while at Barbers?
  4. And me also. I'm 15 minutes from Moody! I'm sure that bird made a 90° turn & headed down to our lake. I saw him this morning in Pell City!
  5. It's a phantom 2 vision. Wish we could video the whole week but I've got to work. The way today went I might not make it to Barbers tomorrow. Steven is working too so no drone tomorrow. Sorry! Now if someone wants to help restore my 83, we'll definitely pull the cameras out for that!
  6. Noon to 4pm. Thanks to my son Steven for a hanging with me all day & making this video. [ame= ] [/ame] "Hondas gotta warm up 1st or it'll shut down!" 96° is a little chilly I guess!
  7. Thanks to my photographer son Steven who thought it good to spend a day with the ole man & thanks to you for being a local good Samaritan. Wait till you see the video he made with the drone! Now... I've got to get back to work before I get caught! This is driving me nuts! 1 hour away & here I am.
  8. I have a single bed with your name on it. Wife & I work tomorrow so will have to go out to eat after 6:30. What say ye?
  9. Was supposed to remove my 83 from the driveway one way or another. Don't have time or motivation to raise her from the dead so what did I do today? Bought an 86 in worse shape! I'd really like to video reviving the 83 if anyone is interested. Will drive the cage to meet everyone tomorrow. Is there a 12 step program for this?
  10. Man I love/hate my phone!
  11. I have to deal with this scenario at work frequently. I have a 2 prong solution. 1st never assume the receiver has the same app or platform you have. Mac/PC. Word/? Coreldraw/Illustrator etc but they probably do have the ability to open PDF files. Download and install a free PDF writer like cutepdf and print your file as a PDF. If weird fonts/graphics still present a problem convert to a readable graphic like jpg bmp etc then save as PDF. Sorry I don't have a free link for doing that as I use Corel.

  13. If I were on the computer I'd go to my fonts dot com/whatthefont upload a small tiff of a few scanned characters and it will give the font with links to buy/download. What was the 2nd link on above post? "Key" that sounds like a direct link to the font you're after.
  14. Not an auction but might be worth a classified ad in Hemmings.
  15. Interesting! When I search Mitsuba SM-13 I get Honda Polaris and bunch of other results from $19 up. A few don't even list what they go on. Will these starters work without modification or would the guts need to be transferred to the old hardware?
  16. What a let down! Yesterday was 1st time I've touched the bike in a year. I thought a sensor went off notifying Don I needed a 4 brush starter, carb rebuild and all the mods that need to be done to a mothballed 83!
  17. Back from a long hiatus. Can't believe my 1st post is a response to a music thread. Well actually I can. I'll procrastinate with music anytime over being productive. I used that site back in the Napster days to "remember" titles I wanted. It also helps me ID instrumentals.
  18. http://www.ntl.matrix.com.br/pfilho/html/top40/index.html And that's my final answer.
  19. On an unrelated note, I think it's interesting that the old do it yourself mags disappeared or became a thin notebook of ads and for me have been replaced by "done by ourselves" forums like this one and a few others I gladly subscribe to... cars, boats, home improvement. Funny thing is, this one addresses ALL those areas & then some! Even if my 83 rots in the driveway, I'll still get my money's worth here.
  20. Is Linked In really a useful tool? I've avoided it thinking it's just another way to spread my personal data to spammers & bots.
  21. My brother did a short stint as an adjuster. He said they were trained to settle ASAP because the longer it drags out the more it's gonna cost. He also said they wanted to settle before chiropractors got involved because "they are a lifelong commitment."
  22. Minimum order 99 pieces. 15-30 day lead time? BUT WAIT THERE'S MO!!! http://juluonetwork.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008845344137/pdtl/Marine-engine/1053754739/Outboard-Motor.htm What's that I see on the side of that there boat motor? This sounds like a legitimate scam to me.
