Old video I made
-
I had almost forgot about this video I made in 1990. The daughter called me and asked if I still had it. I finally found it in an old box of VHS tapes. I converted it to a newer format and posted it on YouTube. I had just got a new VHS-C video camera and wanted to try it out. It was a little hard trying to work the remote while making it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYdJRUknwyE We hadn't had the Blazer very long.....

Re: Old video I made
You're a funny guy. I think you missed your calling. You had me chucklin' a good bit. Things go about the same for me. I keep a roll of carpet to lay up under the truck I'm working on. Much nicer to be laying on when you get aggravated enough to just take a nap under the truck

My dreams were short lived. I never made another one... That is actually a WWI combat helmet. Civil Defense converted a lot of them into CD helmets. You can see the CD decal on the side of it. Quote:

Re: Old video I made
That’s some funny stuff Leon!!
You are the original YouTube influencer. Pure gold. Better than Taryl Fixes All. I’m thinking he ripped you off.

Re: Old video I made
For me, 1990 was a great year for a number of reasons. That year is a landmark for me, plus the math is easy as far as counting back years in two centuries, just minus 10. One good thing in '90 was I bought a new Blazer. That was a great vehicle that I owned for 18 years. And you know what? it never needed a single u-joint replacement

It was a great truck, but after I drove it to Florida one Summer I swore I would never own another Black vehicle. That thing got so hot inside that I felt like a hot dog inside a rotisserie when I got in it.... Cookin', Cookin', Cookin'. I finally told the wife that I was not rolling the windows up any more when we parked it, and I didn't.

Re: Old video I made
To me there's no prettier vehicle than a black one all dressed out with trim. However, black is the hottest and shows dirt quicker than any other color. I've always loved them but never owned a black one.
