I've never seen his shows (I'm not sure if they were shown over here), but I'm familiar with him through memes! It's so odd for me listening to Thomas being narrated by an American. The fictional setting of the Island of Sodor is so British (it's meant to be located in the Irish Sea between the English mainland and the Isle of Man). BTW. Last weekend marked the 80th anniversary of The Railway Stories (AKA. Thomas and Friends) - there's an article about it here. At least the music's good to dance to.3 points

The 3 Wooden Plaques

I'm sure I've asked before but I can't find it, but what were the 3 wooden plaques in Boss' office at the Boor's Nest? 1. One bad turn deserves another 2. Do unto others before they do it unto you. 3. ??????? * * I'd appreciate any help finding the 3rd one and if you know it, the episode that shows it. I asked a long time ago and thought later on, I'll find it but never have.2 points -

George Russell took a very impressive pole for Mercedes in Singapore yesterday with an in-form Max Verstappen in second ahead of title leader Oscar Piastri. Williams, who had qualified 12th and 13th, had both cars disqualified due to illegal rear wing openings, so started at the back. Oscar's team mate Lando Norris got a good start from fifth and managed to take third after some minor contact. Charles Leclerc also got away well and got to fourth ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Antonelli. There was a bit of place swapping in the mid-field, but it's a hard to overtake in Singapore. Despite a spin by Nico Hulkenberg on lap 45, the race avoided any form of safety car for the second year in a row. Toward the end, Lando was closing on Max, but just couldn't get past. At the flag, George Russell took his second win of the year ahead of Max and Lando. Oscar nearly caught the battle ahead, but had to settle for fourth. Lewis had a quick second half of the race, but ceded his position to Charles near the end, and was also penalized a position for exceeding track limits when his brakes faded. Finishing third and fourth, Lando only closed the gap to Oscar by three points in the Drivers' Championship. They did, however, do enough for McLaren to claim this year's Constructors' Championship with six races to go. That's back-to-back wins for the team. You can see the race highlights here. We're back stateside for the next race at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin in two weeks.2 points -

I heard that a player had been robbed, but not who it was until after I saw your post. Sadly, there seems to be a trend of attacks in Dublin at the moment. An English tourist was stabbed (but survived) in the same area last week. I don't know if they've caught anyone or announced the nationality of the attackers. By all accounts the NFL game was a success, so it's such a shame that it was marred by an incident like this.2 points -

So, are you going to turn your kit into a Charger Daytona? I don't know much about 3D printing, but www.printables.com has downloadable files for a General Lee including the push bar.2 points -
They used some '68 Chargers in the show, so it's still authentic. The main differences between the '68 and '69 Chargers are the front grille, the rear lights and the side markers. You can sand off the side markers (as they did with the real ones). You can probably fabricate the front grille divider (they had center pieces to clip to '68 grilles on some cars in the show). The tail lights will be trickier to change.2 points

Well fellow Hazzardites, my gut is still bothering me from my operation but the doc says it's looking good but I don't think so. I've been housebound almost a whole month!

Well y’all in the past 24 hours, life hasn’t been too eventful but I did go to visit a friend who was staying in town, hung out with her and her doggo. Cute as button, but so strong. That pup pulled me and I’m a full grown man. What happened was she was just going to get something at the nearby convenience store… the dog went nuts and started pulling me along even though I dug my heels in. Guess you just can’t get between a dog and their momma. Lol.2 points

Went to the local GM plant's car show today. Over 300 cars, possibly 400 showed up. One that stuck out for me was a restored Hudson pickup truck. Never seen one before. Since it was invitation only it was pretty much hot rods and muscle cars. They might go back to open registration again next year. Few years ago they had some trouble with a few people and police showed up so that's when they made it invitation only, you have to work there or worked there or know someone that works there that will write you in.2 points

A couple of pieces of F1 news. Firstly, Cadillac F1 recently announced F1 veterans Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez will be their drivers next season. Now they've added IndyCar race winner Colton Herta as their test driver. Secondly, Irish driver Alex Dunne gets his second chance to drive an F1 McLaren in the first practice session this weekend at Monza.2 points -

Your Opinion On What Episode Boss Came The Closest To Getting The Dukes' Farm
RogerDuke reacted to Hobie Hartkins for a topic
Of all the episodes, I think he came closest on " The Duke Scam-Scam" There are one or two others that came pretty close though, so, just my opinion. What do you guys think? Hey! I know! What about the one where they go back to the farm and the crooks are looking for them in their helicopter? Remember?1 point -

Just Google "Meteorites for sale" and you will see tons of them. The problem is that lots of them aren't real. It's best to buy from reputable dealers but it can be hard to know which ones are reputable. That has always kept me from buying one.1 point -

What shows did you grow up with?
Skipper Duke reacted to Spike for a topic
Norm retired from This Old House and New Yankee Workshop. I think he would have made more Yankee Workshop episodes but financing became an issue. According to Wikipedia he has bought a new 'old' house in Rhode Island and is building a new workshop and learning shipbuilding. Roger Cook on This Old House unfortunately got very ill and passed away. They did a special about him. Tom Silva and Richard Trethewey are still on the show though. Since WB/Discovery bought This Old House they changed the format up. Now they show 3 houses a season in about 8 episodes each with 2 new builders across the country. They do one house a season in the Massachusetts area. A lot less showing how things are built though but I get it America has a short attention span these days.1 point -

You are so helpful omg.

So I hope the international shipping isnt too expensive. And I cant decide if I wanna paint the mechanical bits or not.

We had 'The New Yankee Workshop' and 'This Old House' on TV in the UK about 20 years ago (I haven't seen them recently). I'll have to check out 'The Woodwrights Shop' - it's a new one to me.1 point

Last night was the last pro dirt bike races of the year. I watched the first 2 out of 4 but couldn't do the other 2 because I got up at 6 yesterday morning. The races were in Vegas. I'm like Garrett after NASCAR....sad. Or, I will be after watching these last two races I have recorded.1 point -
For once, I'm glad that I wasn't watching the F1 qualifying live. They had a record six red flags and the session that usually lasts about an hour took two hours today. Lewis Hamilton, who thought he might be challenging for pole, failed to make the top 10 and will start in 12th. His team mate, Charles Leclerc, hit the wall in the final session and will start 10th. Not good when practice looked so promising for Ferrari. Championship leader Oscar Piastri also hit the wall and will start ninth. That gave Lando Norris a great chance to start well ahead of his rival, but could only manage seventh as the track got a bit damp. In the end, Max Verstappen took pole, but it was a great session for Carlos Sainz and Liam Lawson who start second and third ahead of the two Mercedes drivers. You can watch the highlights here.1 point
