Henry/Kokomo · 10-03-2012, 08:50 PM

I couldn't get the link to work either BUT it sure is good to hear from you again. Everyone here benefits from all the previous work you did. Best regards to you and Mac.

JM 35 Sedan · 10-03-2012, 09:03 PM

Hi Shelly! I can't get that link to work either but it's great to see you posting here. We definitely miss ya!!

Old Henry · 10-03-2012, 09:22 PM

This is probably the article Shelly was referring to about a 102 year old woman still changing the oil and spark plugs in her 82 year old 1930 Packard she bought and restored in 1949: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/49080145

In 8 years my favorite passenger, Betsy (now 94), will be that age. Hope I'm still "Driving Miss Betsy" then.

I'm afraid that your red address is still not a link that can be clicked on and be taken immediately to the page. (I couldn't figure out what to do with it as it is not a compete address without the http:// in front of it.)

Hint on posting links to web pages:

1. Go to page you want to link to.
2. Highlight the address in the top box.
3. Right click on it and Copy it.
4. Go to your post on the forum where you want it to be.
5. Right click and past it there.

Hey Shelly! Good to see you on the Fordbarn, again. The old days were fun, someone was always getting into trouble, usually with politics. I remember the virtual car show we started on a cold snowy Sunday, we posted pictures for days. I still have them somewhere in my computer.

Ian NZ · 10-05-2012, 04:11 PM

Creative --- Shelly go for it you are never to old.

Hoop · 10-05-2012, 04:40 PM

Shelly,

The Lake City Public Library says you have a bunch of books overdue and owe some fines ... total comes to 3 chickens, a slab of ribs, and a pound cake.

If you come back to pay in person, let us know.

Hoop ( ... Ms. Culpepper (seated, Billie Clifford's mom) wanted me to tell you "Hey" for her.)
