  3. These knotheads are in WV this week. The mine accident is 30 miles from where I live.
  4. Got back to WV on Tuesday night. The Toyota dealership in Morgantown did not get the new radiator on Monday, as they promised. So we stayed an extra day in Lewiston. So the plan was to drive the rental car back to Morgantown on Wed, pick up my Avalon (Mrs. Lew's actually) and return the rental car. I left S WV around 9AM and planned to arrive in Morgantown around noon. I called ahead , 'just to make sure' When I arrived the dealership told me they had the wrong radiator and called around the Morgantown area to get a replacement. It would be ready by 3:30--4:00. At 4 the cell phone rang and they said the car was ready. I dropped off the rental and picked up the Avalon. After driving 20 miles the temp gauge started to fluctuate between the middle indicator and 90% Hot...I got gas half way ...The fluctuating stopped and now the gauge is between 80 and 90% hot but not in the orange warning area. When I got to my driveway, the resevoir tank was boiling and spilled on the driveway. I called a local auto shop and the car is there now getting a new thermostat or water pump... It seems crazy to dump all this $$ repairing the car, but it is a great car and I like not having a loan...Even though these repairs seem like making a car payment,,,.... Needless to say I am ticked at the Morgantown Toyota place and will give them a call after the local guy fixes what they did not.

  7. Congrats to DUKE. They opened a can of whup-ass on the Mountainers last night. Offensive rebounds and GREAT shooting were the keys.
  8. Belated Happy Birthday Tater !!
  9. I hear ya about Butler,,, they are no Cinderella like George Mason of a couple of years ago. Strong team that will give MSU fits
  10. HA... we were just going the speed limit on I-79 (70 mph) and I noticed the gauge climb from its normal middle temperature position the the ORANGE warning level. My car knowledge is average at best but I KNOW that when that gauge gets 'pegged' it's 'bad things, man'... The dealership just called and I need a new radiator. This one only has 213,000 miles on it.
  11. By "Butler" you are referring to Da'Sean Butler of the Mountainers, right ?
  12. The Nautical Income Redistributors must not have read Just Jacks previous message that pictured the difference between Naval warships and merchant ships.

  14. Mrs. Lew and I are in Lewiston for Easter weekend. Got in the rush hour (Thursday) around Buffalo and I-290 Youngman Highway. Living in WV has spoiled me about driving as 7 cars means a lot of traffic. Had an issue with the car. The engine temperature gauge rose from the middle to HOT and we had to get to a service station. Fortunately this happened near Morgantown and now the car (98 Avalon) is at the Toyota dealership awaiting repairs. An Enterprise rental place was across the street, so now a 2010 Impala will be our means of transporting around WNY ...Headed to Violas and maybe Pizza Junction. Happy Easter and GO 'Eeeers !!!!
  15. I am not in Morgantown,,,BUT if WVU were to win two more games,,, old couches would be an endangered species.
  16. Congrats to WVU for defeating UK on Sat. night. Exciting game and great finish. The peeps in WV are very excited about being in the Final Four......even the citizens of Huntington.
  17. CL...sorry to hear about this. Prayers for you and your family.

  19. I won't say that I hate Starbuck's coffee, but I think it is over-rated. I have been satisfied with the Gevilia products I get. The best coffee I have had at a restaurant is at the Greenbrier.
