  1. I did ok with the 50's but can't type very fast and ran out of time.
  2. Also some in northern Idaho around Couer D' Alene. I know because we used to follow the potato & onion trucks and pick up refuse after the trucks would hit a bump or navigate a curve too fast.
  3. Also remember an interview with a Chevy engineer about all the Vega problems. His reply was, "What do you expect from a $2000. car?"
  4. I also owned a '73 Vega (lemon yellow) . Drove it about 1000 miles before the oil problem started. Had no rear seats, kids had to lay down on the back panel wherever we went.
  5. When you get my age, everyone is younger. Now retired for 18 years and loving every minute.
  6. Hhhmmmm! Guess you're old enough to be my son!?!
  7. Hey Burt, you look like that guy we arrested in Kootenai County back in 1977.
  8. That's the spirit!
  9. Bert, you're starting to show your age! 😞
  10. Sorry I'm so late to answer your question. The 3rd base coach has more than one thing to relay to the runner coming in as well as any other runner approaching 2nd. Unfortunately, he only has 2 hands. Generally, if the runner needs to slide, he will be using both hands to indicate a slide and to which side of the bag. If a slide is not necessary, the left hand will be raised to indicate a stop at third with or without rounding the bag. The right hand will be pointing to where the ball is or where it is heading. If there is a second runner heading toward second, often the coach will be looking at that runner to insure he is catching the signals he is giving. So, as you can see the 3rd base coach has multiple duties all at the same time. Hope this helped.
  11. I'm 80. What's ogle???
  12. I don't know who is left. I'll take Kriedler if available.
  13. But without Reyes, H. Castro, W. Castro and Candelario, how is that not going to happen?
