Big Jim and the Twins! 

You're mind goes second so you won't miss them either.

Eyesight is third. That way you suffer CRS and CSS at the time.

Can't Remember "Stuff" and Can't See "Stuff".

It makes you go desperately searching the house. looking for your glasses, car keys qnd cell phone.

Oh i am screwed ! thats ALL happening now !!!!😞

Yeah, how often do you march into the house to a particular room on a mission to retrieve something then as soon as you arrive...you have forgotten why you are there. This happens to me with alarming regularity and I'm sure is a portent of the doom that awaits me as I grow older and more stupid. The one salvation is that as I march with purpose to the beer fridge, well I might as well have a beer whilst I'm standing here scratching my head.

funny thing about it fitzy is , I have never misplaced a beer !!! 

.......

the boss is wayyy worse than me ! She loses her phone so often that I bought her a Apple Watch and taught her how to push the “find my phone “ button to stop her walking around the house for hours mumbling and cursing !! ... she shouldn’t be wasting all that anger on her phone !!!!! Geee! It’s suposed to be me that pisses her off !!!

Cataract surgery fixes the eyes but you can't fix stupid with duct tape.

Dualquadpete's girlfriend, Sharon, is a nurse. She says you can't fix stupid, but you can SEDATE it!

Edited April 30, 20215 yr by Frosty

Problem is that in my youthful stupidity I used up my lifetime supply of alcohol before my 27th birthday so now in my aged stupidity I can't sedate it.

And please dont crush em, restore em

That was a great TV series many years ago. I own the Pontiac episodes on DVD. 

Sadly Jim Wangers was diagnosed with dementia, possibly Alzheimer's disease, several years ago and he no longer tours or lectures. Jim is currently living in an assisted living facility. His overall health is reported to be good (he still walks unassisted), and appears content.

Brand new 67 GTO coming down the assembly line....  Wonder where that car is now?  Lovingly stored in a garage or part of a washer/drier combo.

The answer is "Yes".

Or maybe neither. Saw a 57 nomad on the road yesterday that looked like it hit the beach with John Wayne in a WWII movie. Puffing smoke and rust poking through the original? white paint but running nonetheless.

Hope to see the place open by then.  The owner opened his 1st museum in PONTIAC Illinois.  He purchased a close school building here in Pontiac Mich. to help with overflow of his Pontiac collection.  Renovations just to open the inside of the building from small classrooms to open areas are extensive.  Our club the Widetrackers have been huge supporters and some are on staff.   Frosty has been inside the building and knows much more about it then me.  Things like the voting for grant $$ from the city of Pontiac you all helped with last year was amazing.  We did not win the grant but many thankz to all that helped with the voting.  Hoping there will be another grant this year? 

Would be a blast to show ya the archery thing..  You have never shot a bow?  We can fix that!   We could do a face to face with a bear too...BUT,  there will be a fence between us!!!!!!! Would enjoy a face to face meeting with the Last Indian as well.  That might take some planning. 

Pretty sure I've posted pictures of the inside looks like right now in the PTM thread. Still needs a lot of renovation work. COVID didn't help that at all either. There will definitely be some one-of-a-kind vehicles in the museum for sure and it is literally two blocks off of the famed Woodward Avenue loop in Pontiac. So we can take Kiwi cruising down Woodward too.

Sadly Mac McKellar passed away in 2011. He was Pontiac's engine guru. I had the privilege of meeting him at the GM Heritage Collection. He told me the story of the development of the OHC "Sprint 6" engine. As a car club, we were invited to a special car show in Mac's honor after he passed that was held at his senior citizen home where he lived until he passed, I won a Mac McKellar award that day. I still cherish it because of Mac.

He would be floored to see Woodward ANY given weeknight evening. =  Longest, coolest rolling carshow he could imagine.  THEN show him the DREAM CRUISE!!!  

I totally agree - 60-80,000 cars and 2 million spectators on a single day! Yup! Best car show day ever!
