My radio hasn't worked since the day I bought it back in '04.
I even chucked the antenna.

When I do the Godzilla 7.3l gasser swap, gauges will occupy the stereo space.

when I spent most of it with little to no friends,
I know how that is. I have more friends here at FSB than in real life.

Ya know, I started out thinking of FSB as a place different than "real life". But I've come to realize that I have real friends here too. People with similar interests that I'd be friends with if they lived in my neighborhood. We're just real people that are spread out. Yeah we don't always agree, & some are only here for their own gain, but in person people are like that too.

Yep, just because we hide behind a keyboard doesnt mean it isnt real. Ive met about 20 people from FSB in person. Its always been a wonderful experience, just like we had been friends for 20 years. We help each other out, drink a beer (or whatever), and eat food just like "real friends". Heck i tooled around with some guys at the Bronco Takeover in Michigan last year that arent even on this site. No more of a correlation other than having broncos.

The internet is a wonderful place, despite its flaws.

Listening to music in my Bronco isn't practical, it's too loud when it's running. Maybe if I had on a headset like a helicopter pilot and had tunes running through it.

Never heard that one, definitely entertaining.
Yes, a legend lost, the world is a lesser place

Sorry to lose her. She was a stand out for sure. One of the greats. I remember my dad being excited bringing home the record of her duet Louisana Woman Missippi, Man with Conway when I was a kid.


I can't think of any other songs about the town, but remember hearing Johnny Mercer's song about the train.

Loretta and Conway were a duo made in country music heaven.

Johnny Mercer been dead longer than ive been alive! Never heard that one though. The A.T.&SF is still a large employer here but has since merged and become BNSF. A lot of the old A.T.&SF lines are still around, long abandoned like the Rock Island lines. I cross one twice every day, and if you didnt know it used to be there, you would never know.

Aint much better than ol AJ
