The Stovebolt Site Forums The Side Lot Old Dominion Stovebolt Society (MD, VA, West VA, DC, DE and PA) Winchester is coming up fast !

Sorry to disappoint you , but its John here with the one ton panel .
But I will touch base with Leo to see if he's interested in joining me.

Man , I had one feeling left !!!

No worries Jim, panel fan is worth his weight in entertainment value.
I would also like to see Leo, especially if he drove the Beaumont! (He sold his panel.)

Don't think I can make it, But just wondering how the food situation works?
And John, you have been to at least two Homecomings, see if you can drag Leo down with you.
Also don't forget the Reunion in two weeks!

Don

Yeah, I’m embarrassed John!
Jumped to conclusions. Seen your handle, panel, and Canada and put 2 + 2 together and came up with 3.
Still glad to see you again, looks like a good stovebolt showing.
Jim

we have the same problem up here with that metric math .!!!! 2 + 2 can be anything .

Don, worry not, just like all of our other Stovebolt adventures, no one goes away hungry!!
There should be plenty to eat.

There are discussions taking place as I speak, putting together this years food situation.

Another reminder to all attending. When you register, make sure you pruchase a ticket to Friday nights dinner put on by the Ruritan's right there at the fairgrounds. The food is delicious and the money raised also goes to charity.

Other meals and eats will be informally formalized when it happens

Don , I plan on making Winchester but after that the truck will need some tlc. I've managed to do 5,500 miles so far this year and about 18,000 over the last 4 years and its started smoking out the pipe on compression , I think I've finally warn this thing out !
I've had a rebuilt motor and and assorted other parts for years but figured if the truck would start and go I should follow suite. I figure I should get the truck running as good as possible as I understand the next spring reunion will be held at Tim's , in Australia !!!!??


John

Thanks Billy, I figured you would have everything planned out.
It's really a small chance I'll be there, but if mikec4193 wants to buy the 48, he's in NY state and I just might make a road trip.
Stop by Winchester on the way there.
Won't know till after the Reunion in KC.

John
Think we can get a group rate to fly to New Castle Australia?
Tim has a Holiday house at Nelson Bay and I'm sure he and Karen would be a great hosts!

Don

You would all be more than welcome nice time any time and we don’t eat kangaroo all the time

You do have an OUTBACK ? Had to ask,Pat

Don't think we could get all the trucks on a plane , would have to go by boat..

John is that Criss Craft available ??

Tim told me Kangaroo's are thicker than deer here in the states!.
Probably taste about the same?

Don

Tastes like chicken.

Panelfan -- Sure! I'll take you to Australia. We might even make it there. I think I'd rather have a Peterborough cedar strip runabout, though...

Nothing personal John , But I think that would require paddling and that's to close to exercise not to mention slow. I'm out!

Hope to see you in Winchester !

John

You get a tailwind one direction

Better flap those arms harder TPR!

2 weeks away gentleman.
Should we do a head count/list of folks attending?

Me

Me too

Mike B

Me three

Me additionally

I've always liked bananas, because they have a peel...

Grigg,
We had something going here, go and edit, and add the nanner.

According to the docket, there will be a bonfire of proceedings, therefore the SAA is Nanner, Nanner,nanner,nanner,nanner!

I'm coming/going, but probably can't make it till Friday.

I'll be there!

hope that's right

Way to go Pat!

Mike B

Pat, I don't think your banana count is correct -- We all know you're new to these proceedings but ... normally, we'd let you slip with a gentle warning. However, we here in the ODSS hold ourselves to a higher standard when it comes to the Nanner Nanner Nanner. We take our bananas very seriously and thus we cannot let our standard start down that slippery slope to moral turpitude. Just fair warning, but I will come at you with everything I have. Prepare to defend your math at the formal Board of Discipline. Be advised, if you cannot afford legal counsel, one will be provided (as long as he has enough time aside from preparing his own defense ...). Maybe Mike B will do it, seeing as how he's a big fan of yours ... however, the last time I went toe to toe with him in the ODSS courtroom, I disassembled him like a cheap clock and his client is still serving (community service -- cleaning beaver cages for Carl ...).

SAA -- Add Pat to the docket!

I lost count. Count me in.

Mr Milliman Sir!
I do believe Pat’s, Nanner count is correct sir! I did double check the calculations and came up with the same results. Luckily it was under 10 because that all of the fingers I have. At this time time, I formally request these charges be dropped.
Sincerely your fellow 1-Tonner!
Jim

I'm in
John

Dear Sir , not wanting to drag my good friend Mike B thru the mud, I am perfectly prepared to defend my math in any court of my peers,if that's possible at this point, Looking forward to resolving this matter and clearing my good name, Sincerely Pat66

NO, JIM, NO! I place myself at great risk to tell you this, but let sleeping dogs lie. From a phrase originated by Chaucer around 1380 in Troilus and Criseyde, 'It is nought good a slepyng (not a misspell) hound to wake'
Think not, for even a moment that the accuser of Pat's misfeasance is unaware of this. He is well-read, and at times can be a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition when challenged, and on occasion, when not.

Well said, Sir. And I countenance agreeably all thy provenance thus far and to wit!.

To Jim I say this ... Tho thy brotherly one-ton love do weigh heavily upon my heart, I do heartily embrace and warmly scoop up the gauntlet thrust down at my feet thusly! Yes Sir, I do accept the challenge! And the fight, as it were, be on! If ye shall essay to defend thy brother so boldly, then pray Sir, let me equally boldly and with equal honor stand forth to firmly defend the honor of our so august assemblage! It is with great honor, but yet little joy, that I stand forth to draw my sword (in manner of speaking ..) against so beloved a brother, yet honor demands no less.

Never the less, be ye certain that in all things important and sincere, I hold you true as the Brother thou certainly are, in all verity, to me. It brings me no joy, I assure you, to face the certainty that I will destroy you in the proceedings to follow.

In brotherly love,
J. Crosby Milliman, Esq, etc

Watch it Boys and Girls!
You keep talking like this and this and this Ozark Grey Beard, may just show up at your little cityfied party!

The F-250 is full of rocks and ready to roll!
If Tim shows up from down under? The game is on!!!!!!

Don

Sounds like it will be an eventful weekend have to watch proceedings from afar

Billy, from the north we will have Amtrakjoe, DJ, Pop, and Bill Stanley. Jim already counted himself and apparently initiated this diatribe of fightin’ horses with wings, gauntlets etc. etc.

I’ll have a cooler, ice, and PBR’s.

We may have one more attendee - Brady Warner, who showed up at Homecoming in 2017 I believe. Like Grigg, he squeezes Diesels under the hoods of AD’s

Look for ward to the event. Joe

Aaah yes, I can always count on the Northern Contingent!

Don't count me out yet!
I may just fire the Ford up and be there.
Load up the 65 GMC one ton and give it a one way ticket east!
Or the 57 one ton dump?

Don
