Thanks in advance, Andrew Life should run backwards: 1- Life starts with death, in that way that trauma is behind us. 2- We wake up in a nursing home where each day we feel better and better. 3- After a long stay of pampering you are thrown out because you are much better. 4- You go to work and in your first day you are given a solid gold watch. 5- You work for 40 years until you are young enough to finally be able to enjoy life and care less about work. 6- Then you start going from party to party, drinking, lots of thrilling sex while you get ready to start studying, worries are minor passing thoughts. 7- When you finish college you go back to some more school, this time it has to be more illuminating, because is called ?high? school, you know more than you ever did, you learn about alcohol and sex, you didn?t know life could be this good, you are becoming a superman, you can fall of a tree, shake it up, limp home and wake up next day completely healed, worries are something you hear about. 8- Now you go to a different type of school, you have mixed feelings because it can interfere with delicious playing time plus you don?t want to leave home or be away from mammy. 9- More playing time, its nature is very intense and embedding, your whole life revolves around playing time and milk. 10- Your last 9 months are spent in total calm, just floating around peacefully with central heat and room service. 11- At the end of this period you go out in a blissful orgasm.

The glass industry offically equates 6mm glass to 1/4 " which is available at any US or CDN supplier. The actual measurement is rounded off to 1/4"= 6.35mm. I am just joining your ranks and have yet to buy a 404.

Message-ID: Hello Moggers, Where can I get some touch-up paint made for my mog? I'd like to 1) match the __current__, faded color, so I don't have to repaint the entire thing, and 2) Really protect the metal. I've got places where the paint is peeling off, and the underlying metal seems to rust quickly when exposed to the elements. Thanks!

Message-ID: <33f6a.6704b9c.39a35177@aol.com> What a week! It's hard to believe it is Sunday evening and the MogFest is over. Another great job by the Molloy crew, henchmen, Boy Scouts and volunteer attendees. This year was different in a number of ways than previous years. Due to the weather the fields could not be mowed in time but that only required the staff to be a little more creative in making space to camp and play and it worked! The weather was BEAUTIFUL! Last week was 90's-100's, it dropped to about 75 all week and was great for the event. A little chilly at night but great camping weather. A record number of VW's were in attendance including Syncros with a variety of power plants, almost as many Haffies as Unimogs, at least five massive expedition trucks, Volvos, Pinz's, a Jeep with 416 axles, a few Ural sidecars, Rovers old and new, G-Wagons and more I can't even remember. I'm in Eugene, OR, now and will be hitting the road to Southern Calif in the morning. Another successful weekend as I didn't break the 406 and I'm taking a little Oregon mud home as a memento. I'm sure there will be pictures posted soon and more event details. Thanks guys! Alan Draper
