Quoted from cottonm4:Good insurance, I hope. Eight days in the hospital don't come cheap.
About 15 years ago I met a guy who had went to pick up a piece of scrap metal in his backyard. He was wearing some sort of contraption, a ring that was strapped to his wrist and encircled his hand, and all 4 of his fingers were suspended in traction; To heal, his fingers could not move.
He said the hospital bill was $25,000.00. 15 years ago.
$82,000 for my hip replacement, I have health insurance through my job, I'm hoping it is going to cover most of it.

I have other stories about that car, maybe I'll add them to the Memories thread eventually.
Had to do that on my 69 Charger, those were the days.

Quoted from cottonm4:Those things actually work? I always thought they were snake oil.
I have not taken possession yet, but bought an older Chrysler minivan that has the oil filter on top. I might have to look into this rig you present.
I had an 84 Honda Accord that had the filter on top. That was the last car l changed the oil on.

Quoted from swampfire:My favorite memory of the 70’s was the Bicentennial - I was 12, in 7th grade. And in 2026 we’ll get to celebrate America’s Semiquincentennial:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Semiquincentennial
Doesn’t roll off the tongue as nicely as “bicentennial”, but we have a few years to practice.
I was jealous because my brother graduated from high school in 1976 and got a special bicentennial class ring.
Quoted from o-din:I remember the contestants all had a funnel cup with water.[quoted image]
Watched it also, Art Fleming was the host.
