Nope, that plant was brewing hooch, not making corny suurp  Lotsa corny 
suurp made in Decatur, Il, Cedar Rapids, IA, Keokuk, IA, Eddyville, IA 
and other places.  I think Clinton, IA is a suurp plant.


Generally the suurp plants are big and on major rail lines.

Yep - made with sugar, not HFCS. Maybe there will be a shortage of
HFCS soon since a corn grinding plant in WI had a newsworthy
structural failure the other day.

The color is part of the identification of the particular species.

Brown bears, black bears, grizzly bears, ...

Stop being that way, Mao.

There were no new cars being built during WW-2, so nearly anything with 4 
wheels was used for transportation. This included some of the glorious wooden 
spoke wheels limousines of the 1920s. I was the after school clean up guy at 
the Chevy garage. 

I remember a customer telling the mechanic that he was going to keep the wooden 
spoke limo he was driving because it was one-of-a-kind and would be worth a lot 
of money as an antique after the war. It was a fabulous vehicle with a huge 
engine. There was a glass partition between the front seat and the luxurious 
rear seats, and even a microphone connected to a speaker in the front seat area 
so the passengers could give orders to the driver while maintaining their 
privacy.

The mechanic thought about it a while and then ask the owner: "How much is a 
carriage and four worth nowadays?" 
"Nothing.", said the owner, "They're all probably rotting away behind barns."
"And you think this limousine will be any different?", said the mechanic.

I don't remember the rest of the argument, but after the war the wooden spoke 
wheel cars rapidly disappeared. A few, such as the Oakland, have survived but 
that was probably because many were built. You can buy one in good condition 
(according to the seller) for $20,000 nowadays. I would be tempted if I had 
garage space to keep it.

An ultra "cool" Oakland "sports model" was our families first automobile. 
(scroll down the page to the green Oakland.) It had a rumble seat and a 
permanent, non-retractable cloth roof. The whole family would pile in the car 
with four of us kids in the rumble seat and four in the front seat with my 
teenage sister sitting on someones lap. During the 1930s we would drive 'way

I am hoping to be able to tie up the kayaks to the back steps and just 
paddle off without a lot of drama like I have to do now, taking the 
yaks down the road to throw them in.   I could actually build a dock 
now on high ground while the water is still out in the marsh a bit, 
then when the seas rise I won't have to deal with permits and hiring 
someone to slog in the water to build it.  I only need maybe 2ft of 
rise, that should happen by 2020, right, if not sooner?

I suggest you need to be careful with that guarantee.
I predict that these vehicles are going to be of little or no value

I came home last night and a VERY LARGE limb on one of my hedge trees
had broken off.  Hedge (or Osage Orange) is so hard I have never seen
large limbs break off from storms.  It wasn't storming yesterday
anyway.  I got to looking at it and I think lightning may have struck
the tree.  Some of the limbs look blackened.   I don't really have a
question, just thought it was interesting.  Now I have get the chain

A guy I used to work with bought some sort of jap car that belonged to a

weeks as his story unraveled parked the car on a bridge in Boston and
jumped.  It was a pretty nice car, he knew a cop who put him onto it at
the po-po auction where they had towed it, no one from the family wanted
to claim it, he got it real cheap.  It was kinda creepy riding to lunch

Re: [MBZ] 124 window regulators

Just move the arms as close together as you can and point that end toward the 
big opening at the bottom of the door going to the left side of the bracket in 
the middle of the opening. Motor end comes out last. Install in reverse while 
moving motor up and down with switch as needed to get the bolts lines back up

[MBZ] this is stupid money

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

I don't know anything about these cars except they look like they should 
belong to the trophy wife.  Maybe he got rid of the trophy wife when the 
Botox bill got too high and is now unloading the car?  I saw a woman 
driving one yesterday who looked like she had spent more on plastic 
surgery than on the car, so maybe that is what is informing my opinion.


But maybe that big engine in that little car could be a lot of fun, even 
after 130k miles, for half his axing price.

down the road to throw them in.   I could actually build a dock now on 
high ground while the water is still out in the marsh a bit, then when 
the seas rise I won't have to deal with permits and hiring someone to 
slog in the water to build it.  I only need maybe 2ft of rise, that

Black bears clash with Mass. suburbanitesPublished:

Scientists say black bears are moving into the more

The state's black bear population has climbed from 100
in 1970 to an
estimated 4,500, and that figure is expected to
accelerate.

The rise has pushed the population east toward more
suburban
environments,
inevitably leading to more encounters with humans.

The state is urging people to secure garbage cans,
compost and bird

 Black bears clash with Mass. suburbanitesPublished: Friday, June 2,
 2017

 Scientists say black bears are moving into the more populated eastern
 half
 of Massachusetts.

 The state's black bear population has climbed from 100 in 1970 to an
 estimated 4,500, and that figure is expected to accelerate.

 The rise has pushed the population east toward more suburban
 environments,
 inevitably leading to more encounters with humans.

 The state is urging people to secure garbage cans, compost and bird
 feeders.

 Just last week, the governor of New Hampshire stopped the euthanization
 of
 three black bears trapped in the town of Hanover. The bears were
 investigating trash cans and dumpsters (Nik DeCosta-Klipa, *Boston

Now I have get the chain saws out this weekend and cut it up.  The small limbs

 Of course, I am not going to need any firewood for months, but I can add it to
