Rec Crafts Politics

Mar 12, 2008 25 Replies

Since the NG has been taken over by people who have no clue that it is supposed to be RCM not RCP I shall no longer waste my time parsing through crap to find a few metalworking related messages. I was going to ask some questions about a winch truck rigup that I am working on but there are other places on the net that dont have such a high amount of politics crap.

There are quite a few people here who put winches on their trucks and trailers.

And a lot of us who couldn't care less, certainly a lot less than about the politics that are driving trade and the status of US manufacturing, and that of other countries around the world. But we don't object to truck threads.

However, there are several truck NGs where Bill may feel more at home.

I want to know how to put a wench in MY truck!!!

Don't let the door hit you etc. etc. etc. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

That kinds of sums up the problem with this NG. Martin

Yeah, but we can't talk about it on R.C.Politics, can we?

Yeah, Gunner, the mill is finally out of my pickup bed.

Just drive down any road in your town and hooker in, Tawm.

Put our doorknob back, before you leave. Ron is still chewing the chrome off of it.

There sure are. Most of them a pretty boring. RCM is like a lively cantina: lots of noise, dozens of dime-store cowboys, one or two people who really know what is cookin' in the kitchen.

I always keep a can of Liquid Wench handy for road emergencies.

Too many trucks? d8-)

I don't drive 'em. I don't wear peacock-skin cowboy boots, either. 'Not interested.

-- Ed Huntress

How do you bring stuff home from the dump?

-Carl

Well go there and quit bothering us. There are serious matters at hand that must be addressed if we what this country to be one what we want to do metal working in. Did you expect this to be your Andy Warhol moment where we all say, "Please don't go, you are so famous"?

PS

The door closer is a spring (metal content) it closes fast so don't let it hit your ass on the way out the door.

Ha-ha! That's something I don't do.

So you were going to use telepathy to get a response to your unanswered questions?

Ive been here a few years...10 or more, and Ive never seen an intelligent question go unanswered, and often turn into a very interesting thread.

Yet you piss and moan about non metalworking stuff, when you dont even ask any questions?

Can you actually walk and chew gum at the same time?

Now what are you doing to use for balast?

Gunner

When you find such a place, will you please make one more post and tell us where this fabled newsgroup can be found?

We got what you need here, you just have to wade through the weeds.

Do you want Eliot's phone number? They're expensive.
