If ever there was an unexpected
treasure hidden behind a plain exterior, this is it! Anyone who has
lived in Richardson, Texas as long as I have will remember the building
on Campbell and Nantucket as the original Sterlings catalog store. After
that, it was offices. Recessed off Campbell, is a nondescript building,
except for the fact that there are now huge letters on the front that
say Classic Cars, Banquet Rooms and NTX.
Thus, technology was on a roll. Bill Gates had founded
the Microsoft Corporation in 1975 and McDonalds had created a drive
thru. However, my mother was more interested in her own life and leisure
time. In the seventies she had graduated high school, entered the
workforce, and married my father in 1976 and started her own
family.
James Douglas Muir Leno was born April 28, 1950, in New
Rochelle, New York. His Italian father Angelo sold insurance and his
Scottish mother Cathryn was a housewife.

I should always watch what I say
because with the PC their could be a small child on here collecting
those hunting stories like I collected them from my grandfather.
Although the word bullshit was one of those sacred words as a kid you
used to say just out of ear shot of mom and dad. It had it's own
mystique about it altogether back then. The dark
figure standing, staring by the street, is noticed by the two men in the
front seat of the truck, they stare but keep going, --trees blowing to
his right and left, the waves of the Great Lake of Superior, makes a
humming sound, and everything else, as if you were in the middle of a
hurricane, the stranger stands erect yet, never moving. He sees the eyes
of the passenger in the Ford-truck, a small figure, a man of about
forty, the driver calls him Skip, and he hears that. The taller man at
the wheel, his arms are solid, and frozen to the wheel, is called Amery,
for some reason you know he knows that.
But there
is certainly good news for those who just have no idea where to
celebrate the holidays. You see, the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum is
actually inviting everybody for a big event. The event is to actually
celebrate the arrival of the new year, 2007. Come the last day of this
year, 31st of December, there would be a celebration and an event which
the museum dubbed as "A Classic New Year's Eve". No, the museum is not
going to give away some of their cars or even some of the Custom
buy truck paint parts at the very least. It is perhaps a way
of saying thank you to all those auto lovers and to all of the public
who has wholeheartedly supported the auto museum through the year. That's something that a lot of
married couples don't think about. Yes. You and the person you married
are legally bound to one another. Your spouse (unless you legally put
someone else in charge) will be the one they ask permission from if they
ever have to pull the plug on you. Your spouse will get your social
security money in the event of your passing. It didn't bother me that my
wife had all these legal rights as my wife but it bothered her. She
doesn't want me or any one else having legal powers over her. It all came back to her then, how he'd lain sobbing in his room
across from hers while the man raged in the livingroom, how she'd
slipped into his twin bed with him and wrapped her arms around him until
he was finally asleep, how she'd read chapters of "Charlotte's Web" to
him each night, how he'd raced on his bike through the dark streets the
night they'd finally made their escape. She'd let him in on it early on,
told him all about her plan to find a new place where it would be just
the two of them and how he wouldn't ever again have to lie awake at
night afraid of what was going on in the livingroom or of what he'd see
in the morning as he headed out for school. He'd told no one. It was
their secret. So
there you have it. I have listed some of the more popular accessories
for a Ford truck. Of course there are many more such as performance
tuners and if you are going all out you can completely upgrade the
suspension. That will be another post for another day however. Until
then happy trucking my friends, hope to see you out at the truck
shows.
