Even the expert chain installer in the video is breathing heavy! I remember about 1962 & I was helping my Dad put chains on...we put em on the same way this guy put them on in 2015! We also put them on the same way in
'63/'64/'65/'66 and I was out of there in '67...
Hey! You Engineers out there! Can't you people come up with something better and easier than this humping, struggling, heavy breathing "simple installer" has shown us?
Snow chains have been around for a hundred years & you Engineers have done not a thing to make
them easier to install. Instead you focus on making it easier to open soup cans, bottles, plastic hot dog wrappers, WAWA salad packets, orange juice containers, doors, elevators, airplanes, Amazon boxes, et al!
$39.99 per tire...that's the July price @ Pep Boys
I live on Blossom Hill...a very steep hill. I will be purchasing a set of chains in the Fall. And should
I die of a heart attack simply installing The Chains before a snow storm...all you Engineers will be sued for misfeasance.
During the winter of '58 thru '60 Michael Heebner rode his bike to St Ambrose through every snow storm with not chains or rope on his tires, but there was something there, pulling him up the C street Hill...he never told us what the material was. I think they used it on the Space Shuttle.
Michael Heebner was very smart. You engineers are smarter than Michael was in 1958
He was in 6th grade!! Give us an easier way to install tire chains...
We are thinking Poppy Pool Party here. We can celebrate the fact that Poppy is now 65
and "on the Dole". Or, we can celebrate the fact that we are still here, we have great kids & grandkids
and Poppy has a pool! and is on the Dole...
We were thinking Saturday, August 22?
The only Saturday that is not good for Poppy is the 15th.
You all probably know that Chris and Kendra got engaged this past week (July 7, Ringo's birthday).
The premise was that they were on a motorcycle ride and there was a "problem" with the engine.
Chris had pre-arranged for the location and his photographer/co-worker to be hiding across the street to capture the moment. Here are some pics.
henceforth geraldpea comments & questions...when you Zoom in that looks like a
"cluster" of diamonds & if I were in the market that is a ring
"An extremelyy close and loyal family friend, Dan Kleckner, recently went through, literally, the fight of his life. Dan is an amazing person who has never hesitated to help family and friends. On March 11, 2015, Dan went to the emergency room in excruciating pain with a fever of 103°. Hours later he entered septic shock from a raging staph infection. Dan's condition was termed 'a complete body shut down', he was placed on life support. In order to save his life, doctors performed multiple surgeries resulting in a double amputation of both of his legs above the knee. Dan will need months of aggressive therapy and surgery to hopefully get him to the point of being able to use prosthetics. If you can, please help support Dan's medical costs and share this page! Thank you, thank you."
