I understood what you said. I am hoping that will be the case for me too. Just got my first 1099s today.

It is Willys FC. The FC stands for Forward Control. From the angle and people blocking the sides of the truck I can't tell if it is a FC150 or FC170. The visual difference is bed size/style and wheelbase. The 170 had a 6cyl the 150 a 4cyl and the 170 was rated for heavier loads. I use to own a 170, they are interesting trucks, they predate Ford and Dodge forward control vans by several years. They were introduced 1956-57. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeep_Forward_Control From that angle it does look a lot like a standard Willys Pickup but I think I'm right here is a picture of the one I had.

My taxes have been all over the places because of changes in income sources, different deductions and such so I try to figure what the minimum I can pay ahead of time to avoid penalties, then pay what ever it figures out to be when I do my taxes. I have owed most year in the last 10 or so. With the new tax laws and my sources of income being more consistent, I hope this year I can hit it pretty close but still slightly low. I really don't like loaning the government money.

I had a rotary wall phone installed in the basement of our previous house. It was an old ATT phone with a cast aluminum receiver. I brought it with me when we moved to TN in 2015. For probably the last 10 years it was installed you could only receive, not dial out. Since I installed it for emergencies, if we had to take cover in the basement, I had to install a more modern phone beside it for dialing out. I did bother reinstalling it here but couldn't bring myself to leave it behind. It is interesting that in the span of about 35 years we went from a party line, to a private line, to having to pay extra if we wanted to use touch tone, to free touch tone, to pulse dial not working. Then the whole phone thing went really crazy. I refused to pay for touch tone so I had a bunch of push button phones that put out fake pulse dialing.

Took me a minute to see the gun.

I'm a Coast fan also, i have several sizes. Bought this Olight for $15 during one of the holiday sales and I really like it. Small enough to fit on my keychain and the two light levels give good trade offs for long battery life or very bright for it's size. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CT423H2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have not had a headlight burn out in years on Fords and Hondas. Can't remember when, but way over 10 years. I thought they were making them better but it sounds like I have just been lucky.

I remember a fake video of someone robbing a donut shop in Texas with a similar result.

Who's on the radio tonight?
