KFC is very much hit and miss depending on which location that you go to. The one in Ridgecrest is delicious. Just like I remember as a kid. The one in Santa Fe Springs was awful. They turned that one into a Taco Bell which wasn't any better.

And if you ever find yourself in Victorville California DO NOT eat at the McDonalds there. That's not a good one.

Yep, I know. A telecom career, much of it in outside construction, taught me that (and maybe a few other things). This time though, I was hand-digging.... in my own yard.... I know exactly where my water & sewer lines are.... power, phone, & catv are overhead.... & we have no gas lines. When I found the abandoned pipes, I called water & sewer to check 'em just to be 100% sure.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Oh man, our 8 pc is currently about $38+ and is some of the worst restaurant served fried chicken we've ever had. We stayed away from our kfc for 3 years or so because the place was so run down and nasty. Well no one else in town had good chicken so we tried kfc again and was so disappointed. I tossed half of it in the can. I swear I believe they refried it it was so dark. Chester's chicken at a fuel stop is better than our kfc.

The funny thing about the high prices is I buy less. I'll see the price of something and pass on it. That equals less sales for the merchant. It makes no sense. They aren't making any money if no one buys anything and I can't be the only one saying no way.

I avoid driving. Especially my big truck. It's like a mortgage payment to fill that beast up. So it sits. I drive my little Porsche which doesn't get great mileage either. But it's the best I've got. You'd be surprised how much stuff I can fit in that little car.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Chester's is good. And they have gizzards. And I love me some gizzards.

Bad KFC is just that. Bad. It's worse than drinking champagne out of a smelly shoe.

But if you can possibly find one that still does it right then you just hit the jackpot. They are few and far between but they still do exist.

But it's still going to cost you 42 bucks. (That's what she said)

Back in the mid 80's I was working construction in Kansas City and there was this old, converted gas station on the Kansas side that sold chicken, it was called "Go Chicken Go" and they had fried gizzards to die for.

When I was young no one wanted them but me. I had them all to myself. Then I got married and my brother in law liked them as much as I did. I wasn't the only game in town anymore. The gizzard battle was on!

Now... My wife loves them. But there's no battle over them. I immediately surrender. I might be dumb but I'm not that dumb.

Remember when the KFC was a big bucket and full and now it's smaller and the pieces look like the size of a cornish hen

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Safeway was doing 8pcs for $5 on Mondays for a long time. They've inched it up to $7-$8 and it doesn't taste as good as when it was so cheap.

Vons has some good fried chicken for much less than the Coronel. But it's not KFC and they don't always have it.

Gotta get out of town again today. Edison is cutting off the power again. I believe that this is about the 5th time in the last couple months. It's only going to be over 100 degrees today so it seems like perfect timing to cut off everyone's power in July in the desert. Good thinking.

I feel for the old people that have to sit in a sweatbox and the guys on the poles with all their gear on.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

It's good to know they're working on it. Don't worry, you won't be charged for the electricity you couldn't use today.

I don't like to eat fried chicken very often. I like fixing it even less. But when I do it sure is good!!

We have three supermarkets in town, Safeway/National, Food Lion/Southern (NC), and Weis/Northern (PA). They all have good fried chicken. We have two regional convenience stores that started out as urban dairy stores, High's Dairy/Wash,DC and Royal Farms/Balto,MD. They both have really great fried chicken. But nothing beats Baugher's! Just a short country drive away.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Baugher's looks good. I'll have to look it up. I have to go to Carlisle to clear out my brothers place. So I'll be in that neck of the woods. I've been putting it off. Too depressing.

Power went out at 7:50 today. So I left. Drove down the hill and there must have been at least 10 trucks and a bunch of guys standing around doing absolutely nothing. I should have known. I used to be one of those guys.

Reminds me of the road crew that realized that they had forgotten their implements back at the shop. They called the engineer to bring them out, and he told them to lean on each other until he got there. I've done plenty of leaning on shovels, myself.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

I’ve come to the realization that I have too many vehicles. I finally got time to bleed the brakes an the 62 and looked at the tires 32 week 2005 . They look good but I’m buying new tires for it . The inspection expired October 2018 . I drove the Hawk last fall so it’s ok everything new on that . The Avanti the inspection expired September 2015 tires from 2010 I have driven that around the block every couple of months . The AMX hasn’t moved in 12 years needs brakes. Always seems something else is a priority . I’m going to take stock of what I want to keep and get rid of all the rest .

I know exactly where you are at. I have way too many cars too. It gets to be a burden just trying to keep up on them. But every time I say I'm going to sell one I just can't do it.

You have a very nice collection. I would have a real struggle to cut one loose.

I've sold a couple of my cars. I wasn't happy about it. But they went to better homes. I just couldn't keep up with them. But it still bothers me.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

2 cars would be more manageable. I agree. But you would have to pry those Studebaker's out of my cold dead hands.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Power is off again They said it would be off until 4:00 No notice. They said the 19th Nothing about the 20th. Thanks a lot. They said the power would be back on by 4:00 yesterday and it didn't come back on until 10:30. It was off 14 hours yesterday. So I'm not holding my breath about today.

The Hawk would stay my dad bought it new and it just turned 30k miles . The lark and Avanti I can do without . The AMX would be hard to sell I bought it in high school and it got 64k miles on it . So I'm looking at 3 cars and 2 trucks in the fold .

I did reach out to an old friend who said if I every decide to sell my FXSTS Harley Springer he wants it . See where that goes

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Paul we're knocking on wood 'round here as we've not had any power outages this summer, so far. The tree trimming crews are working all over town. They cut one side of one of my trees plum off. Looks stupid but I told the wife, if it keeps our power from going out, I'm ok with it.
We're over 100* every day for a week. There's not much grass to cut now.
Mark I don't know how you could decide which ones to cut loose and which ones to keep. For me, it would be hard to justify tags, taxes and insurance for all those just sitting there unused. Maybe it is time to let someone else enjoy them.
