first time I changed a tire woke me up pretty quick. i was around 20 and had just worked a 12 hours shift, then started the 5 hour drive home for my days off. I blew my tire in the worst spot on the 502(highway to dryden) It was dead cold and lots of snow. I was stuck in on a corner just after a hill. I knew how to do it but I was not prepared for this situation. I called 911 to have them try to radio truckers or other traffic if possible. cops from dryden got over very quick to block the road. I was just a sitting duck prior. thank god nobody got hurt. the police brought a chain and we towed the car off to a safe area. changed the tire. and everything was fine. man was I cold though. If I had been stuck there I could have been in real danger of hypothermia. it was -32 or something like that. everything changed after that. our vehicles always have extra winter gear for the whole family, food and proper tools. i changed that tire on uneven ground too. dont do that if you can avoid it. get roadside assistance or a tow

im sorry but this made me chuckle. backing up a boat is easy.

Stamkos and Kane Komorov played a wicked game, I love that guy. he had a few good chances to score as well

comedy gold! hahahahha

OMG!!!! this iz going 2 b soooo epic!

we have some gnarly backlake launches around here. they often require odd turning or big hills or pot holes to avoid. one thing that makes backing up a trailor waaay easier is using your hand at the bottom of the steering wheel. this way the trailor will turn which ever way you turn the wheel. i know that doesnt help with visibility. just thought id throw it in here. sounds like guides are the way to go for you

maybe im being silly but what is there to line up? i always back the trailer into the water then run the boat up. i keep it in the water when hooking it up. i can easily adjust the boat to be even. then pull out. should be even easier with a 16 foot boat.

true bigugly. tough men and women. i aint gonna lie, i think id need to get that off my chest. yet they raised families and worked darn near as if nothing had happened.

you know what odd? now that I think about it, outta the thousands of times i sat with my gramps, he only told one brutal story. I wonder why? all the stories were mainly about commraderie, and food. man i miss those stories

my dogs would totally just eat them. which is kinda gross but id prefer that to rolling around in them. my dogs love lampreys too. yuck. dont even chew, just swallow nice pics joey!

if one of us kids farted in my grandpas house, he yelled "who bombed Canada?" and run around pretend fighting us. best game ever after eating sauerkraut lol sounds gross and stupid but pride in our country runs deep I now do the same to my kiddos

brave men and women! their service will never be forgotten. ill never ever forget my grandpas stories, as much as i felt for him it was just amazing to hear 303 british with bayonette still in the gun case gramps:)

wow sorry to hear man. thats just brutal.
