I've been away from the forum for the last few days trying to spend every moment I could at the hospital with my family during our fathers final days. Thanks so very much for all of the sincere condolences from my loving slingshot family. The one and only thing my large crazy family could unanimously agree upon in the last several years was to not use life support to keep our beloved father with us.Luckily we were able to reach my older brother,who was chasing tuna 65 miles off the coast of New Orleans,by sat phone monday night. He made it home in time to spend about 12 hours with dad.The sheriff died peacefully in our arms with the whole family present. Thanks everyone and a special thanks to @Bill Martin for starting this thread. It helped make a hard day a lot easier.

I want to mount my GPS to the center windshield and need a 1" to 17mm ball. Plus a would like to mount my phone or Ipod around there. Is it possible to have more then one thing on a Ram mount? I've never had a Ram mount and don't know much about them. Thanks
PS. Where do you guys buy your pieces and part? Amazom?
@Shatneyman I didn't use the ball that was attached to the 180 mirror you gave me... is that what you need ?

Happy Birthday @EjFord Sorry I'm late to the party.

If it's a female that's "loose" I bet all the male gorillas on I-75 are very happy.

Doesn't California get nearly all their water from the Colorado river? They would be completely screwed.
I know that's where all the rich folks in Beverly Hills get theirs from. They could probably build a huge desalinator and convert all their tears into drinking water but how on earth would they keep their Bentleys clean?

Hey @BONES I'm not sure if you got my PM but I felt bad when I checked my company emails the other day for the first time in about 4 months. You and a couple others had sent me a few messages and I had no idea. It was kinda embarrassing but anyway thanks for reaching out Bro.

Congrats @Slunglow - I knew ya were gonna make that happen from way back!!!
PS. No watering down the bourbon
Thanks Bill and no way I would ever do that to you buddy.
Hey speaking of bourbon look who my best friend was out drinking with last night before he stopped in our place...
@Bill Martin can you guess who that is on the right?
You had a drink with his next door neighbor at Captains Quarters and I would be willing to bet you have his autograph in your liquor cabinet. -
Thanks @Shatneyman
I was kinda feeling like I might have posted this in the wrong thread but I just realized it's right at home here because there was definitely alot of politics involved...

I'm glad she is safely home and reunited with her loved ones Larry. And it sounds like she is off to a great start as a civilian.

For the 5000 that's what I paid. I stayed and watched everything they did. It was every bit of 3 hours
Holy Crap @DKF Texas I hope that extra "0" was a typo
Oh,ok I read that wrong... 5000 miles not $$$ carry on nothing to see here -
Well it's official...
The local watering hole that has been in my family since 1971 is now our baby.We have 60 days to close on the accepted contract.It has been a nine month long bizarre and very emotional roller coaster ride.In the end I was the only family member out of five that was willing to make the physical and financial commitment that will keep the tradition alive and yet I have one family member that will not speak to me at the moment.He'll come around, big brothers always do.So if you guys are ever in the Louisville area stop in and have a cold one and be sure to check out the pics on the wall.
@WOLF if you ever make it by I can't wait to show you the pic of then President Bill Clinton shaking hands with my Dad and my youngest sister. -
@Shatneyman , it would be a little out of your way but hey...... wouldn't it be worth it? Just go a little further West!
@Shatneyman ...

Maybe.... just maybe a hair above 18K ... but yet a smidge under 22K. But hell its just money and I have enjoyed this ride! I can't take it with me when I am 6ft under so I damn sure will enjoy spending it and riding SHOT while I am 6ft above!
I'm being cremated... the way I got it figured that leaves me with enough extra money to buy a whole 'nother Sling and mod the chit out of it.

I'll be back in a minute. Got to check my route.
What's he checkin' ... @Tripod I think you're slippin' in your old age.
