How to shoot skip

spelling wrong firs its H not k then its T not P
 
HAHAHA!! Can we fix it? I don't know which is worse, Andy... you knowing Bob the Builder or me...
When someone declares you "Godfather" - kinda have no choice but to know what your God-Nephews and God Nieces want to be entertained by.

No to CB Radios, Boat anchors and even our Dog Sparky - nope, wants to play "Let's Build It"

Man, Legos were fun back then, but even MORE hilarious now...

Trying to steer them to do the right things and even learn of the Empire - but they do resist - their force is strong.

Waiting for them for find a shard of a Kyber Crystal...

Then all bets are off...
 
My 12 y/o is into watching the Weather Channel and weather forecasts. His grandfather has two weather radios in the house that alert. My son has no interest in CB radio, except for he remembers the movie, Twister. So every once in a while he broadcasts weather alerts on channel 19 in the car. So if anyone hears a Tornado warning on Channel 19 in Western Penna. Its my son.
 
I was more into Dora and Yo Gabba Gabba. That’s what my little girl loved, not too many days ago. Ok it was years but feels like days to me.

I love the weather channel or did back when it was better. Y’all noticed the chances of rain now? 32%, 66%, 24%… who the heck came up with that dumb idea? I wanted to be a weather man, glad I didn’t.
 
WX Channel is one of many "simple" channels we watch to help keep the kids focused on their own development.

I just try to avoid many of the commercials as of late, ones promoting "shock" values more than common sense approach to sales - or "Kids - it ok to hate your parents, they put you into this world and you have to wait until their dead to have a future because they won't fix it." (Climate Change Accord 10-years before Paris)

But hey, give a 5-year old a Dollar for every year they celebrate a birthday, ($5-dollar bill) they think the world of you.

Continue adding 1 dollar per year to the process until their 18? Even rounding up to a $20 - they think you're a tightwad...

Shhh!

The Graphic shows - a 13' 6" clearance!

Don't tell anyone ok?


Nail the underpass at 72-mph. Them ‘shooters’ll be bendin’ an’ skippin’ backards and never touch.

While parked between other big trucks two nights ago acted as relay for a lady on a big radio across road at other truckstop selling a Ranger while she talked with a truck driver northbound on IH-75 asking her about it.

I lost him at 4-miles. She only heard him once as he came past.

Them ‘shooters Skip jes fine.

On IH-44W today past Rolla, MO, the Prez and the Skipshooters busted the pileup wanting to know the way around the construction at MM-140 backed up to MM-145. (A: Use old Route 66).

The radio is nice. Gets asked about. The WMR DSP Speaker is a great addition.

But Skip is The Boss.
Ain’t happenin’ otherwise.

Twenty miles further on, blew a Drive Axle Tire. Roll 4-miles at 45-mph half on the shoulder.

“Westbound, gotcha a slowmover mile marker 121 rolling the edge. (Rinse. Repeat).

For a fact I was being heard
(when it mattered) by radio rigs good and bad. Miles & Miles of busy Interstate.

And we stopped at the first exit, the ramp across from the Uranus Candy Factory:

The Best Fudge Comes From Uranus!!”

(No lie. And this here is, “The Show Me State”).
