    We had friends of ours try to get us to uproot and move to Uruguay in 2020-2022. They landed in upstate NY, then in Calistoga CA. I still wouldn't mind going. There's always Paraguay too, eh.

    I've been reading about Americans that are retiring in really cheap places like Ecuador or Malaysia. I'm not sure I could do it. Plus, I'm sure it's messing up their cost of living. That's what happened in Costa Rica.

    They probably view us the same way people here view the California/Washington/Oregon refugees. Seriously fucked up our housing market.

    One of the managers I worked for has just retired and is now in route to Malaysia with his mail order bride (j/k -but she is Malaysian) from there.

    I normally pride myself in being able to immediately understand people with the most outlandish accents, even when English isn't their first language so they're speaking poorly. Last couple decades of employment have required it.

    But I'll be blunt: I can't understand about 50% of what the hell Gerald is saying.

    I lived in Yountville near Calistoga in high school. Man what a great area. Back in the 70s, Napa had a great hot rod cruise scene.

    you should really take my advice and relabel them 001/200 limited edition :p:p id would be a hot seller on these forums.

    (of course I’d expect us three to get 000/200 each since we coined the idea :D:D)

    I want one! Let me find some frame pics to confirm Hulk is qualified.

    Is this enough to see its approval worthy? @shifty`

    As @shifty` ’s TA in his absence, I would give it a temporary approval..

    (I have no idea what I’m talking about :D)

    That is awesome. You should have said The Novelist approved.

    I didn't know this existed. How terrible is it?

    Now that's some droop. Hopefully I'll get to see Hulk in action next year. I'm not counting Broken Arrow because it was like a 2 star trail and you were behind me so I didn't get to really watch the flexies

    I like that one. I got my wife a few from this place. She's got a dark sense of humor.

    Got a self priming diphragm pump, and a small solar cell. Chooches pretty good uphill. Seems to take close to 8-10 min per gallon. ATTACH]901568[/ATTACH]

    whats so cool about this for home is i can piggyback a couple barrels in the wagon and let it run all day. Set it to 6-8 trees & forget it. I took apart a keurig so i also got a 12v air pump & a couple 120v heaters.

    for the truck, its cool because i could have some free water pressure without leaving the tank in the bed. I could wash dishes with this little flow.
