good ol' jawja boys...

so i have a good one for y'all.

I just leave downtown suwanee after meeting Kendle there for lunch.
Drive my 2-3 minutes home. pull in my driveway....get out of the G, open the gate. Suwanee cop rolls up and says that he just got a call that "I" was picking locks. "huh", I reply. He says, "yes, you are picking locks." I tell him he has to be kidding me and what address does he have. He says he does not know the address.

By this time, i wonder WTF is he thinking. He drives away. I park the car behind the gate, go back into the street and he drives by again. I ask him if he found the address yet....nope. I tell him, officer, look at my cars in the driveway, do you really think i'm picking locks. He looks and then grumbles something, and drives away. I remain outside. He drives by several more times and I wave each time he drives by.

This is the same cop that pulls me over about a year ago in suwanee with the old white tahoe that was covered in mud. Profiling is what I call it.

I think i'm going to run for city counsel or mayor next term. Should be interesting!!!

WTF, that is weird... Cops are obnoxious. We have a ton of cars at the house (all tagged and insured properly) and every time I'm outside and one drives by, they slow to a crawl and stare me down. Jackasses.

Gotta remember...most cops are not the sharpest knives in the drawer. If they were, they probably would be something other than cops.

the official i'm a hick from Georgia thread. LOL

Frank, you remember the old 1941 Ford 9N I got here:


Now look at her.....!




I'm about 90% done w/her. Just need a couple touch up's, and few little things here and there.

Tractor this...tractor that. You're as bad with the tractors as Gerard is with the shooting.

Looks good, man.

[95g ATL]

^^^ not quite.

[5-speed '02]

^^^ not quite.

Derned close...

[5-speed '02]

OH...and a solid 23mpg on the third tank of gas. It's got about 1100 miles on it. Quite happy with that...not as good as the G20...but it's got a lot more power than the old G as well.

Can't complain about the Kia at all...other that it is a Kia. I know...no prestige about it - but zero issues thus far as well.

that thing is looking AWESOME!!!

the thread title should stay. it's a good title.

Gerard...you need to learn to screw up on command.

Thanks man!
I'd let you drive this tractor, but I saw what happened when you operated a lawn tractor. I couldn't imagine 3,000 lbs of iron with weak ass brakes and you behind the wheel. LOL.

I have to pull the drums and get the brakes working a little better. Down hill, they don't stop....flat land, you pull on my weight on them and they "slow down". It's pretty bad. The ferguson tractor will lock the brakes up on command, not this old ford. I hate drum brakes!

[burningsquirrels]

why not try jamming your foot into the wheel to make it stop turning?

great idea...but I already tried that and it didn't work.
I do have a limp for the past 5 weeks, however.

Oh and on the profiling thing....that's why I don't hang out in Suwanee. I would have been in jail for many peoples crimes by now.
