I have to much time on my hands I guess. I find it very ammusing that 90% of the posts claim they would have been dead if they were wearing belts. And I'm very concerned that in certian parts of the country that EMS & firemen think its not wise to wear belts. I certianly hope all things work out in their part of the world.
I kinda would like to meet everyone who doesn't wear a belt and size up their overall attitudes. Why heck we have folks who are very nice folks that carry oxygen bottles and smoke. They also may choose not to wear belts. I claim to be perfect, but I'm overweight, have skin cancer, but sometimes the bother of wearing a hat or sun screen is to much troubles. Therefore we are all human, and yet we can add to society.
Everyone has a opinion, and a story to tell. But anyone want to talk to the transplant doctors or get on the transplan list? They will tell you the best time to get organs is in motorcycle season. So anyone wanting to not wear a belt for whatever reason, you can take it to your grave. I hope it is a painless trip, and just my opinion, Thanks from all the rest of us if you check the organ donor box. The rest of us may be very thankful for your donation. Biggest problem is if you are thrown from your vehickle the stats in my hometown is you probably will not be alive long enough to harvest anything more than a few less critical organs. I don't doubt anyone elses opinion on belts, but this old hard head will never change what I've witnessed over the years. I've tried in vain numerous times to justify why I drank and smoked as a teenager, did'nt wear a belt, helmet, big hat, or a life jacket.
Our government here in Iowa doesn't have the cahonas to require life jackets ON THE BODY as we refer to it at our fire station up here alone the Mississippi River. They must be just in the boat. And don't even get me started on why we are out dragging for a young child for days when their stupid parents took the jackets off the child for just a few seconds. The parents probably have had their punishment, but I think prison time is needed if they are guilty, and fortunate enough to have a live child in a boat.
It also amuses me how the drunk driving laws in Iowa that were terible at the time seems to keep our fire / EMS departments less busy. If anyone thinks I'm jerking your chain on that one, I can show you the records.
So now that I've ranted, anyone got any ideas how to make me loose weight without the diet / exercise crapolia? Next time I'm going to sit on my skinny old age doctor, cause he realy ticks me off with his ideas! Often I can't understand him because I'm chowing down a crunchy candybar while he is talking to me about weight control. The SOB actualy told me it wasn't hard. He said if you eat meat twice a week, just make it once a week. If I ate ice cream every other week to make it every forth week. Problem is when he looks at me while explaining this his eyes resemble ice cream in a dish! And then often my five candy bars fall on the floor so I'm busy picking them up and don't catch what the heck he might be saying!
Anyway I hope belts or no belts we can continue our posts with respect to others---hope when you read this you are not in a wheelchair or hospital rehab center.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
