This is why we can't have nice things!

Photo from the internet,
not my table. 

This is a refrain that we might have heard from our Mothers as we were growing up. Or we just might have heard it from our Wives or Significant Others in the present. 

 I haven't forgotten about my truck.

It's hard to discern what this picture illustrates, it's the end panel of the windshield cowl grille. 

 Chuck Berry memorably sang;

Ridin' along in my automobile

My Baby beside me at the wheel

I stole a kiss at the turn of a mile

My curiosity runnin' wild

Cruisin' and playin' the radio

With no particular place to go...

No particular place to go...

 I've been reading Hot Rod magazine for over fifty years.

I would guess that I've been a subscriber for at least 40 of those years. And no, I've never owned an actual Hot  Rod.
