Marc, people are ignoring your posts. That's because you used the word "bikinis" in the title with none visible for all practical purposes.

It's like the boy who cried wolf. But I won't be fooled. I'll keep checking just in case.

Ya-huh...there are too. Upper left hand corner laying on the beach towel.  Use your Optivisor man!    Neener-Neener.

I says "for all practical purposes" man. Oh yeah I had my Optivisor on (never took it off from dinner I guess) and her stuff was all pixelated.

If you go to the link Carlo posted you'll see all about it including: "The Davis Motor Mine Cart was discovered in 1990 in an abandon gold mine located in Northern California. Used for pulling wagons of ore out of an underground mine on narrow guage track, it utilized much of the 21 cubic inch, 80 mile-per-gallon Harley-Davidson motorcycle.  This rare, one-of-a-kind machine also features all-wheel drive and electric start, a trait not acquired by Harley-Davidson motorcycles for another 40 years."

Thanks Dave, it appears indeed to have begun life as a Harley, one that is now quite a rare beast... In 1926 Harley reintroduced a single cylinder engine, 21 cubic inches, primarily for the export market. There were four models: A, AA, B and BA in side-valve and overhead-valve configurations, but they evidently didn't sell well, or at least not well enough. The blacksmith or whoever it was who built this contraption probably picked up the Harley for next to nothing and applied some fairly creative bashing to come up with the Mine Cart. In 1929 this engine morphed into the 45 cubic in v-twin flathead that was available until 1973 in some models. Electric starters arrived on Harleys with the Electra-Glide FL in 1965, followed shortly by the Sportster line.

Nothing like coming home from a long trip, and the next day having your neigbors P.o.S. above ground pool explode...all the water running down-slope into your yard. Luckily no visible damage to our guest house or garage.....but now all my grass and some of the plants are starting to die from the chlorinated water!! Just great! Who the hell still has these above ground white-trash bathtubs as pools in this day and age!?





....oh yeah..almost forgot "BROOM"!

Just passing thru ...

[Craig_H]

White Trash Bath Tubs you mean you don't have one in your yard? I would of thought you would of bought one as soon as the neighbors got there's......you know keeping up with the jones thing

[JohnP]

Marc, just cover the mess with a blue plastic tarp and you'll be fine. Maybe throw some pallets and old tires on top to hold it down.  The tarp on your '78 Trans-Am in the front yard (it'd be worth sumthin' someday I gotta tell yah) would work fine.

A guy here at work was using a borrowed Bobcat to work on the retaining wall behind his pool. You can guess what happened. 13,000 gallons down around his house to the street. Mulch, shrubs, plants. Heh-heh...

They make those pools cheaper and cheaper too. Just a thin strip of metal from converting a lot of potential energy to kinetic energy.
