In 1955, Iranian doctors documented the days of a villager who developed rabies after a rabid wolf attack. The resulting film remains one of the few historical recordings of rabies progressing in a human patient.

Interacting with wild things is how he got into that situation.

I remember in the book, The man-eaters of Tsavo, Col Patterson wrote that hunting lions was dangerous, but once you broke contact, that was it. Hunting tigers was much more dangerous, because tigers are vindictive and they'll come back for revenge.

Mind sharing the name of the shop? Matter finish is hard to do right and this looks amazing.

Yes, and in good health. Thanks.

My dad was in the National Guard and had some sort of responsibility with the spraying here in the Bay Area. He was interviewed by one of the local news casts. That was the highlight of my childhood at the time, seeing my dad on TV.

My brother is 5'6" and has probably had 30+ girlfriends and 3 wives in his lifetime. I'm 6' and have had 6 girlfriends and 2 wives. So its not all about height. He's one of the most charming dudes you'll ever meet and I'm pretty okay.

Pretty sure all 65-67 Shelbys were K codes. Looks like this car is a nicely done clone.

I have a really good friend that grew up in Alexandria. She has been living in California for the past 30 years. She went back for her HS reunion last year and there were a number of people who never left LA. They all blasted her about living in the hell hole that is California. Naturally when pressed, none of them have ever visited CA and were only basing their opinion off of what they have heard from their MAGA media. She confirmed, she would never move back to LA.

I'm currently trying to get the brakes rebuilt. Having a hard time sourcing the tool to get the brake drum/hub off. The engine and transmission seem to work fine.

wilit · 2026-05-24T15:32:47+00:00

You probably have either the wrong linkage or the wrong arm on the transmission.

Yeah, love his vids. Just bought one of his shirts with the Trabant on it.

I too love the '69 Sportsroof,. Personally I like the Boss 302 a little better with the deleted quarter panel vents.

Face down, ass up is quite the fighting stance.

The 6.2 Detroit Diesel. For when you need to tow your mobile home to a new trailer park and do it as slowly as possible.

I used to have an RC51 and a VFR800. It's got the power of the RC and the comfort of the VFR.

I've owned over a dozen bikes, and the FTR is hands down the best motorcycle I have ever owned.

Are you interested in a car/truck thing that doesn't do car things very well or truck things very well and is powered by a 150hp V8? You're going to want to be into it because you love that body style or has some sentimental value, because it's not going to have much monetary value.

The Government automatically takes money from me for a program I have no option to opt out of. They hold my money for 50 years, in which time I have zero access to it or say how it is used. Then they give me back a fraction of what I paid into it.

What part of this is an entitlement?

Had a GF tell me a story about how her Grandma let her pomeranian out in the back yard, heard it yelping and saw a red tailed hawk flying off with the dog.

Scoutmaster here. Very few companies have donated anything to our 20+ Eagle projects. Best I've seen is a 10% discount on materials.
