Good morning! Rainy today...but better than snow any day!

Brian...did the person who invented the game of curling used to work on transmissions? The disc or whatever it is called looks like a torque convertor with a handle welded to it!

Morning all ........... hope you have a great Tuesday

The picture of the day ................. Southern California, 1970, .............. Bill Bradford's Fletcher chassied, rat motor powered Nova flopper ............... Bill Bradford Sr. owned the car, Bill Bradford Jr. drove the car, and brother Rick Bradford rounded out the crew ............ a low-buck team, but a fun group to watch

The car was named after a movie character from a late 40's western movie starring Wallace Beery ............... "Bad Bascomb" .......... the good hearted bank robber ................ the "Ghost" reference came when Bradford beat Big John Mazmanian at Irwindale, California after a magazine writer made the statement that "the team didn't stand a ghost of a chance" .............

Isn't curling what you do in the gym to build bigger biceps

'Ice' as in 'on the rocks'.

Or, maybe that should be 'on the stones'.

curling stone
Function: noun
Date: 1620
: an ellipsoid stone or occasionally piece of iron with a gooseneck handle used in the game of curling

Curlers have been known to have a few "on the rocks" between beers.
