Sex, cops and superheroes headline the new fall TV series.
"Marvel's Agents of S.H. I.E.L.D." (8 p.m. Tuesday, ABC) is television's latest attempt to tap into the comic books for source material. Unfortunately, the medium has given us more super duds than super heroics, but here are five shows that, for better or worse, stood out over the years:
"The Adventures of Superman" (1952-58)
It's a bird. It's a plane. It's B-movie star George Reeves. He cemented the image of the Man of Steel in America's eyes until Christopher Reeves hit the big screen. Fortunately, a canine-centric spin off called "Superpup," never saw the light of day.
"Batman" (1966-68)
The Dark Knight? No way. Adam West had plenty of lighthearted, campy fun as the Caped Crusader. And how's this for heroics: They filmed 120 episodes over just three seasons.
"Wonder Woman" (1975-79)
Who you gonna call when the Nazis are wreaking havoc? Voluptuous Lynda Carter, who absolutely rocked the golden bracelets and star-spangled hot pants.
"The Incredible Hulk" (1978-82)
That haircut was hideous and the green skin looked like a bad rash, but bodybuilder Lou Ferrigno certainly had the biceps to pull off the role.
"Arrow" (2012-present)
No one wants to be stranded on an island for five years, but at least it gave our hooded vigilante (Stephen Amell) plenty of time to work on his abs.

Weekend observations from MTL
Seeing is believing
We followed most of the series through our Blackberry, but we were fortunate enough to catch the telecast of the last innings of Saturday's walkoff win. We're not sure that we would have believed that Rod Barajas could score from second on a single if we'd read it on the pitch-by-pitch recap, but there he was, rumbling home to score the winning run at a speed you could have timed with a sundial. That's the kind of season this Jays team is having.
(And as for Aaron Hill, who hit said single: M!V!P! M!V!P! M!V!P!)
Believing the hype
We live in a world of hyperbole. Frankly, everybody exaggerates about everything all the time. And so with that in mind, we can say this: the smoked meat at Schwartz's Deli absolutely lives up to the advanced billing. We're not sure that we could ever eat an smoked meat sandwich anywhere else after savouring for ourselves how absolutely magnificent the real deal tastes.
And speaking of hype, we're glad to see that Robert Ray, the object of our recent overstated affections, delivered just enough to keep the Jays in Saturday's game. We expect that he'll get another start or two before the cavalry returns, so here's hoping that he can keep his walks down, hold the fort and improve on his first Major League appearance.
Les Expos ne sont plus là
Here's an odd observation from the weekend: We saw more Blue Jays caps than Expos caps in Montreal this weekend. We're not saying that our isolated observation is in any way representative of reality, nor are we insinuating that Montreal has somehow embraced the team from Toronto since the departure of their own team.
Still, it seemed odd to see that many Jays casquettes in Montreal, and frankly, it made us sad all over for the way that the 'Spos left town.
More on the Expos-Blue Jays connection
A question for the commenters: Al Oliver was the best player to play for both the Blue Jays and the Expos. Discuss.
Ending on a happy note
First place! Pennant!

Maybe it's because it's been a couple of years since I've been there, but The Corned Beef House on Adelaide tastes about as good as Schwartz's. Different, but equal in pleasure.
Maybe Schwartz's is 2-3% better. I have spent a lot of time thinking about this. You are in the best position to judge this, however.

When the 'Spos left town I took a few years off cheering for a team to let it sink in.
Now I'm a Jays fan though, and I'm a true blue fan, but of course its not the same......
- May 4, 2009 at 11:37 AM
- eyebleaf said...
Fletcher is the best colour commentator ever. And the best Blue Jay and Expo ever.
- May 4, 2009 at 11:47 AM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Fletch is a good candidate, as is Fullmer to a lesser extent.
Also: Matt Stairs and Scott Downs.
But none of them bent the bill of their cap quite like Oliver, and none of them wore number 0. (Which is pretty much what we base our love of Oliver on.)

Why is there no gravy & cheese on those french fries?
I'm going to have to think long & hard about this Ultimate Jayspo question....
- May 4, 2009 at 11:56 AM
Al Oliver was a great player, but I think the premise of the question is silly if we say he's the best player to be both an Expo and Blue Jay... the majority of his career (and his best years) were in Pittsburgh. It's like saying the greatest Expo of all time is Pete Rose.
- May 4, 2009 at 12:09 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
@ Anon 12:09
Yes, the premise of the question is silly. Would you expect anything more from us?
Also, Scoop's best season was likely 1982 with the Expos. Career highs in OPS, total bases, doubles, homers, and finished third in MVP voting.
Bring on the silliness!
- May 4, 2009 at 12:16 PM
Damaso Garcia?
- May 4, 2009 at 12:26 PM
I just want to point out that the Corned Beef house should never be mentioned in the same sentence as Schwartz. 200-300% better is more like it.
Their smoked meat is rather bland and pretty average in my books. I also find their Corned Beef to be rather lackluster and you can getting a better sandwich at Katz Deli up north on Dufferin near Yorkdale or Pancer's on Bathurst near Wilson.
- May 4, 2009 at 12:34 PM
Well, if silliness is the name of the game... Otis Nixon!

Use Stairs in case of emergency. No contest.

Been to Schwartz's a few times, even brought back 5 pounds on a plane once. The plane smelled great. But the hands down, not even close, winner is Katz's Deli in NYC. It's in the Lower East Side and was where Meg Ryan gave every guy a boner in When Harry Met Sally. Get the Rueben.
- May 4, 2009 at 1:08 PM
David Segui - best player on the juice that played for both clubs.
As well just show a little love for the Expos. I was born on "Blue Monday" just in time for my Dad to step out and watch Rogers give up that crushing dong!
- May 4, 2009 at 1:09 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
There's an Expos post coming soon, so lots of love is on the way.
Nixon and Segui are interesting candidates, although Nixon really didn't do much for the Jays. (Aside from grounding out to Timlin in the 1992 Series clincher.)
Other names to come to mind: Tony Batista, Graeme Lloyd, Rob Ducey, Sandy Martinez, and Michael Barrett.
Slim pickings, we know.
Also worth noting: Tom Cheek also broadcasted Expos games before coming to the Blue Jays.
- May 4, 2009 at 1:26 PM
I haven't followed baseball in so long (since 1994, as a matter of fact) that i still automatically scroll down to check the national league and how the expos are doing.
saw my first full game since 94 yesterday. gee whillickers i've been infected by your enthusiasm.
- May 4, 2009 at 1:32 PM
- Darren Priest said...
What's your mustard of choice, Tao? I like a reuben with with hot mustard. I might have to pick up some of that on the way home -- although what I can get around here for smoked meat will be a pale comparison.
- May 4, 2009 at 1:38 PM
- Stedron said...
I'll just say this.......
That roast beef looks a hell of a lot more appetizing than the roast beef I watched rocking a pole when I went to Montreal.
- May 4, 2009 at 1:50 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
When it comes to watching the ladies in Montreal, we've come to understand that your best bet is to sit on a Crescent Street patio and watch the ladies strut on by.
The lovely Montreal ladies wear only slightly more clothing that les danseuses, and they are far less likely to have biker tattoos and meth mouth.
- May 4, 2009 at 2:08 PM
Tomo Ohka????????
My guess probably Ted Lilly if pitching a few games as a callup counts
- May 4, 2009 at 2:18 PM
Ok, Al Oliver did have a career year in 1982, but it was one of just two seasons there, and he didn't do anything spectacular with the Jays in '85.
- May 4, 2009 at 2:31 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Yes. But he did wear number 0. And he bent his cap bill to absurd degrees.
That's gotta be worth something.

could be pedro if jays injuries continue

Meth mouth has it's perks. Teeth can be dangerous.
- May 4, 2009 at 3:11 PM
Fletcher the Catcher. No doubt about it. Always loved watching him be the anchor of the Expos' running game. (Anchor in the sense of a heavy thing that holds something immobile)
- May 4, 2009 at 4:14 PM
Duders, hot peppers on a reuben = boner explosion
corned beef house is tasty, schwartz's is a must go though.
- May 4, 2009 at 6:15 PM
- Joanna said...
Didn't Zaun play both Jays and Expos? He was a drunk as an Expo and got dumped, but didn't his Jay years erase that?
And maybe my pathetic Pedro dream will come true and he will be the best to play for both.
One of my fav Pedro stories was how he invited Vlad Guerrero (just off the Dominican farm) to live with him and helped him get used to life with Les Quebecois.
- May 4, 2009 at 6:36 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Zaun was dropped by the Expos in Spring Training and never played a big league game with them. So he doesn't count and neither does Jose Canseco.
- May 4, 2009 at 7:01 PM
- Darren Priest said...
It looks like there are two guys in umpire uniforms sitting in the Action zone behind the plate at tonight's game. They appear to be cheering for Cleveland.
Should there be cheese on a reuben?
- May 4, 2009 at 7:19 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Yes, swiss cheese on a Rueben.
A Rueben, unlike a club or a philly steak sandwich, is very easy to screw up. Bad meat, bad sauce, or lousy saurkraut...so many ways to mess it up.
We've stopped ordering them because they so often disappoint.
- May 4, 2009 at 8:27 PM
I too have only recently come back to baseball after being a Long time 'spos fan.
Once they began the folding process i was out of MLB.Dave Van Horne used to talk me to sleep during the summers...... no wonder I'm a wreck. Let's repress that one again.
I hated the Jays when they won their WS's, i had just moved to Brampton from Montreal as a 12 yr old. Though, the Felix Potvin jokes never got old...moving on from the therapy stuff, The Doc and this current core group of players has gotten me back to being an everyday fan, for the most part anyway, that and the fact that they're essentially the only team i can watch regularly on tv.
94' will burn in me loins for life, well that or that thing i should probably get checked out. Anyway, I think at this point I'd cherish a current Blue Jays WS as I would have with the Expos.
Just a weird feeling changing teams. Has anyone had to do this? Maybe you know what I mean and can tell me what soap will scrub this dirty feeling off.
- May 4, 2009 at 9:30 PM
@DP, those two umpire weenies? They must be Cleveland fans! Anyhow, they were annoying/amusing to look at!
- May 5, 2009 at 12:18 AM
- SP said...
Al Oliver?? Dude, you guys are old.
- May 5, 2009 at 1:17 AM
- Darren Priest said...
@my good buddy Bruno: I couldn't help but wonder if they were from another crew or if they bought ump uniforms because they have unfulfilled dreams that are too sad to contemplate.
@Tao. Yeah, because of your picture, I bought the ingredients for a reuben, but I skipped the swiss cheese because I wasn't sure. Even though my sandwich was just grocery store fare, I thought it was pretty dang tasty. The one type of Rye bread they sold at the Sobeys near my house was weird though.
What? This is supposed to be a baseball blog? Oh, my bad. Tao, start a food blog!
- May 5, 2009 at 7:37 AM
MY dad is from Australia oddly enough and his favorite sandwich is a Rueben! This is from a guy who ate meat pies and steak and eggs mind you! So I've gained an appreciation for that sandwich beyond belief. NYC has some great ones and some diners do that justice as well in the tri-state area(NJ-NY-Connecticut) as well. Anyway, food is an apropos off topic because of that loss yesterday! Wow whatta tease that was......
- May 5, 2009 at 9:12 AM
- David said...
I've always liked the Jays, so the transition from my beloved wasn't that hard to make, albeit after a couple of years of mourning. 94 straight up murdered baseball in Montreal, and it's slowly dying in the rest of the province, which is a damn shame.
On another note, Schwartz rules, and to all visitors to our fair city, don't be afraid to explore other areas, Crescent is all right, but Mont-Royal, St-Denis, Prince-Arthur are also worth a look.

Oh, and Wilkerson.

Q&A with Dr. Savita Sachin Thorat - We asked one local physician to weigh in on the weight issue.
We asked one local physician to weigh in on the weight issue.
Dr. Savita Sachin Thorat is a family physician at the Mercy Clinic in Rolla. She is a graduate of the Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences and completed her residency at the University of Minnesota.
Q: Is soda really all that bad for you?
A: Soda contains empty calories in the form of sugar, added salt, and has no nutritive value (vitamins, anti-oxidants etc.) therefore is not a healthy drink. (Sugar, which is a disaccharide (means contains two sugar molecules), contains glucose and fructose. Glucose is necessary as an energy source for all cells. Fructose is an uncommon source of energy. Fructose is metabolized differently in human body, and promotes fat deposition.)
Q: Is soda contributing to America's obesity?
A: Soda (with its high sugar content), high fat diets (meat, eggs and dairy products) and cooking oil play an important role in obesity in Americans. Sedentary lifestyle also plays some role in obesity.
Q: Is diet soda any better for you than regular soda?
A: People who drink diet soda are more likely to eat/drink high calorie foods to compensate for the low calorie drinks. Review studies on diet soda show that it is associated with weight gain. More research is needed for definitive answers.
Q: Will posting calorie information on restaurant menus impact people's selections?
A: Posting calorie information on restaurant menus may influence people's behavior. Evidence-based nutrition education to students and adults is necessary for a more meaningful change in people's choices.
Q: What else can parents and health experts do to keep our communities healthy?
A: Diet and exercise can prevent many of the health problems. Limiting high fat, fried foods and sugar intake is an important step toward good health. Increasing fruits, vegetables, grains and lentils also helps. Engage in daily exercise like walking, jogging, etc. Parents are recommended to implement these changes in their lifestyle so children can follow them.

Say: hi-po-gly-see-me-uh
Glucose (a type of sugar) is the body's main energy source. Hormones, such as insulin, control the level of glucose in the blood. It's unhealthy if a person's glucose levels get too high, or too low. Hypoglycemia occurs when the levels get too low. This can happen to people who have diabetes. It can occur if the person doesn't eat enough or if the person takes too much insulin, which lowers glucose levels. A person with hypoglycemia may feel hungry, shaky, sweaty, weak, drowsy, or dizzy. If left untreated, hypoglycemia may even make someone faint or pass out.

Thanks for making all my guest posters feel welcome while I was gone.
You guys are the best!
One of my friends taught me this yummy treat but used whipped cream instead of frosting. Then, you put them in the freezer and they are a nice, refreshing, frozen treat!
Welcome back! I hope your trip was wonderful. :)
Can we talk about how much I love these? I am so in support of anything that allows me to eat as much frosting as possible in a socially acceptable way. :)
YES we missed ya. I was just thinking that today! Glad ur back! I hope vacay was great. can't wait til my turn.
Oh yeah!
Now that would be good!
Such HAPPY colors!
So cute!
Welcome back! I love any excuse to eat frosting:-)
I love these with chocolate frosting. Mmmmmm...
I'm a Floridian - I know where you come from! I, too, like blue, chlorinated water.
If you want to see interesting - go to a Florida beach! In California, they're all hard bodies in bikinis. In Florida, they're a melting pot full of people without a care in the (fashion) world! Appropriate is not a part of their lingo!
Beautiful treats...
Simple and delicious! I love graham crackers with cool whip, frozen- yum!
So glad you're back - you were missed!
Does any guy ever look good in a speedo? Doubtful. Who lets them out of the house like that?
I missed you oodles. And oodles. And oodles.
And I'll take any excuse to make and eat buttercream with reckless abandon. Love these.
Welcome back! These look yum and easy.
The beach is great in theory. But like you, the last several times I've gone I've ended up in the pool. I have a pool in my neighborhood! Oh well, the view FROM the pool to the ocean is nice. Hope you enjoyed.
Nothing is better than leftover frosting and graham crackers. YUM! It reminds me of preschool!
We've made these for years...whenever my mom had extra frosting we made these cookies. Now I make them for my kids. --Niki
Welcome back! Glad you had a fun vacation! We love graham crackers and frosting...I often catch my husband using my leftover royal icing on graham crackers...although I much prefer buttercream. Great idea to have them cold! :)
These look so pretty! Love the ocean/pool colors!
Glad you're back. We could never forget you:)
I'm a Florida girl & I was "back home" last week for a visit. This post was hilarious, especially the fashion commentary. As for your sweet treat, yum... but honey, slap some buttercream on it and I'll eat a shoe.
Welcome back!!! I am glad that you are back and LOVE graham crackers and frosting. I like chocolate more, but the colors might persuade me to try vanilla.
Glad you had a good time hanging out with your friends. I just want to give you a big hug for these frosting grahams, seriously, you have no idea how addicted I am to frosting and yet I've never thought to eat it this way!
These look simple and gorgeous! Thanks for sharing this! The kids will love them this summer! :)
That is such a cool idea.
Yay! You are back!!! Missed your posts but all your guest did awesome while you were gone! I am totally with you on ocean water...I will only go in knee deep for fear of things with giant teeth pulling me under:-) Love me that blue pool water! Glad you had a great time away!
I cannot wait to try these out the next time I have some munchkins over. So adorable. Glad you had a good time.
The colours are so vibrant. love simple recipes
How pretty these are!Welcome back!
A-to tha-men on chlorinated water vs ocean. There is nothing in my crystal clear pool water that swallow me whole!
Love them with frosting, but recently have discovered nutella and graham crackers. Down side, I don't have to make anything so I eat more, but then again, that is an upside.
You're one funny cookie!
Welcome! What a fun fun time!!! I am totally a pool girl too. Critters freak me out. You took these frosting grahams to a whole new cuteness level...as always! :)
These are so pretty! And so easy. I will be making them for snack time soon, for sure. :)
A triumphant return indeed :)
My dad and I have been eating these since I was a little girl. We even sold them at our lemonade stand when I was like 10. No one wanted any so my brother and I ate the majority of them. yum. it's good with chcolate frosting too.
wheeeewwwwwwwwwww SO GLAD you are back at it providing me THERAPY..these are simple and divine and the photos lovely. You are the best cookie and cup I know!
Glad you had a great time! My mom actually started to teach me to decorate cookies this way - on grahm crackers! Thanks for the memories!
We just got a pool in our backyard a few days ago and while I was raised in So Cal I sure dp appreciate a nice pool where you don't have to wonder what you are swiming with! Glad to have you back!!
Welcome back! We have made frosting grahams for years. It's one of the few times I'm okay with using canned frosting - though I do like them better with buttercream.
Have never tried them frozen - yum!
Welcome back!!!
We used to have grahams with chocolate frosting growing up....oh, how I LOVED that! Yours are prettier, though. :)
Welcome back And OH MY HECK! YUM!!! That's my kind of treat too. And they look so pretty!!!
Welcome back, it sounds like you had a great time! (Lol, I'm a pool girl too! :) ) These look super easy and delicious -- and so pretty too!
When I was growing up in the 70's, all the kids on my block would swim at the neighbors pool and the mom would always come out and serve us these awesome graham cracker treats, she always gave us cold milk served in those colored aluminum cups. I've been making them ever since. Your frosting layer is triple the size, I'm guessing due to your love of buttercream! LOL
I used to love coming home from school to find that Mom had made these for us. They are simple but SO good! Welcome back too!
FROZEN???? why did i not know that was an option??? wait . . . who's blog am i on again . . . oh right, Amy . . . wait, it's Callye . . . oh darn . . . it's Kristan . . . hmmm . . . Glory . . . no i think it's Robyn . . . Leslie . . .
Welcome back, why sure I like, ok kinda love in a blogcrush type of way some of those others, but there is always room for y'all as well. How kind of you to make sure we were all entertained while you were away with your guest posts.
I love your ideas and the pictures of your beautiful treats -- but you're a super writer, too. Laughed out loud at your beach riff!
Welcome back, love! I just *adore* frosting and graham crackers.
Glad you had fun at the beach! You deserve it!
I have been a lurker for way too long, I thought I better actually check in and let you know that you were missed while on holidays. I check out your blog several times a week and have tried lots of your recipes. thanks so much for keeping it real and bringing such awesome goodness for our hungry tummies.
Welcome back! Thanks so very much for letting me guest post for you again!!! Glad you had a fun trip in Naples!
This brings back memories! My mom used to make these all the time when I was a kid.
My Mom's version never had these colors! We used what ever frosting was left from cookies at Christmas and birthday cakes. They kept us kids out of the goodies. Thanks for sharing these!
These are so pretty and they look so easy too. I love the idea of eating them out of the freezer on these hot summer days!!
I remember when I was little eating graham crackers and frosting with my mom. These look great! :)

Someone please tell me that I am not the only one who feels this way right about now. Thanks in advance for putting up with my BS
My preemptive apologies to my friends and family haven't seemed to work. I told them that I wouldn't be the same this week. I told them that, even though it might not seem like it, everything is okay and I still love them. My girlfriend keeps wondering why I'm so deep in thought and ignoring her. It's not you, it's not me, it's the Seahawks baby! They're the only thing on my mind right now.
My production at work is slipping. I'm not my usual outgoing, happy go lucky self. All I want to do is watch Seahawks highlights and prepare for this game. No, I'm not a coach or a player, so my preparation means absolutely nothing to the outcome of the game. Think that's gonna stop me? There's something inside me that demands more. Call it obsession, call it love. Either way, whatever it is, I'm going all in on it.
This isn't too far from the norm. Everyone from my grandmother, to my boss, to my little sister has heard my sometimes crazed Seahawks ramblings over the years. Funny thing about the ramblings is, they don't seem so crazy anymore. I rant and I rave less, only stopping to point out how fraudulent the sports media and Roger Goodell are because those two things still rub me the entirely wrong way. I don't have to rant and rave about the Seahawks anymore because their play does it for me. They took my pre-season 10-6 with a Wild Card berth prediction, which my friends laughed at, and added a win to their real record just for kicks. Nobody laughs at me anymore. Not after Brandon Browner or Kam Chancellor devastates a receiver's central nervous system. No, no one laughs anymore.
The conversation has shifted from "why do you like the damned Seahawks?!" to "the Seahawks are nasty!" Funny how quickly that happened. Give Pete Carroll 3 years and he can work miracles. That's why I have the utmost confidence that he will have this team prepared this coming Sunday. Prepared for the great unknown.
After all, that's the biggest thing we are up against this Sunday, is the unknown. Will the team play up to it's full potential, on the road? Will Shanahan outsmart Carroll? Will Brandon Browner be rusty? Will Russell Wilson continue his superb play in his debut game in the playoffs? So many questions and all of the answers will have to wait until Sunday. It's important to remember that the Redskins are facing most of the same, if not similar question marks. However, what we do know is that if the Seahawks play their A game, the Redskins simply will not stand a chance, even if RGIII and company bring theirs.
The Redskins are an exceptionally talented young squad, there's no denying that. There's also no denying that the only way they can win this game is if the Seahawks have a letdown of Seahawk proportions. They are the only ones who can stand in their own way. It was supposed to be a 4 Year Plan, but sometimes plans change, which can be a good thing if you're ready to take the opportunity and run with it.
We all we got, we all we need isn't just a rallying cry for this team. It represents the truth. When Lawyer Milloy first uttered the now trademark phrase, it was meant to represent the "us against the world" mentality that the team needed to win in spite of it's lack of elite talent. Now, it's morphed into some greater. It still rings true with "us against the world" but it also now means that the team doesn't have to rely on anyone else to win as long as they do their thing. They really are all they need. This team is loaded with talent and leadership, oh, and a remarkably talented leader at quarterback.
It's been 30 years since the Seahawks last won a road playoff game. Sure, that sucks. It sucks a whole lot. However, it's time for the insanity to end. This team deserves to put this skid to bed. They are good enough to do it. I'm expecting a tough one down to the wire but I think the Seahawks should walk away victorious.
It's time to leave the "Same Old Seahawks" in the rear view window. The sense of impending doom, the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, and the rare ability to always come up just short need to become a thing of the past and there's no better time than now. There was a time where I would be full of despair right about now. The prospect of stopping RGIII and Alfred Morris on the road would seem to big a task. Not anymore. My heart's telling me that the Seahawks might let me down but my brain just won't seem to agree. This is new to me, I've never felt that before with regards to our Seahawks.
I know everyone around me is feeling ignored and probably can't believe that this team means this much to me. I could care less right now. It DOES mean this much to me as I'm sure it does to all of you. I can already tell what a bitch "sleeping" is going to be on Saturday Night. I'll probably get an hour or so, that's probably an hour or so more than some. This disease called being a Seahawks fan already had it's hold on me for the better part of my 25 years on this earth. Now it's infected my brain, my heart, and my soul a little more than it already had.
2012 was supposed to be the year of the 12, and for the Seahawks it was. For yours truly though, it was a rough one. I dealt with a lot of personal hardships along the way and a lot of real life pain and heartbreak, as I'm sure many of you did as well. No matter how bleak things looked in reality, watching this team on Sunday's has been a shining light that I could look forward to. Even if I don't remember everything come Monday, it was the highlight of my week. It's always been one of the joys of my life, there's honestly not many things I enjoy more, but this season holds a special place in my heart. If I could thank every single one of these guys individually, I would. The fact that I've been able to take in a game in Seattle, my own personal mecca, and take in so many games with fellow 12's has only made this season that much more special. Thanks for the amazing times.
I just don't want it to end. Not now, not Sunday. Forget me, a few weeks of solitude and loads of alcohol probably still won't erase the disaster that a loss on Sunday would cause. Somehow, I'd deal with it. It's the players, coaches, front office, Paul Allen, and the rest of the 12th Man that will be in my thoughts if things don't go as planned in DC.
Enough of the negativity though, we're goin out on a high note. Wherever you watch the game this Sunday, at home, in a bar, wherever... don't stop yelling, don't stop screaming. You honestly shouldn't even have a voice come game's end. If you're lucky enough to be at FedEx Field you absolutely MUST be loud, supportive, and proud. This young team needs all the confidence and support it can get.
After the Patriots game I told myself that I'd never doubt this team again. I told myself that I'd never doubt Russell Wilson, ever. Might sound silly but I guess that's what comes with being a fanatic. Sure, there's been points where I've wanted to throw myself through my TV set or chain smoke a pack of cigarettes after downing a Double Jameson, but it's been worth it. Hell, there might come a point on Sunday where I contemplate doing this very thing. Regardless, I'm never going to stop believing. I'm not going to doubt this team. It's time to go rewrite history. I'll have my war paint on and I refuse to sit down and shut up.
John Schneider mentioned how he wants his team to be able to win a street fight. It's time for the Seahawks to show John that they are everything he, and we, have ever wanted.

BRU, a Boulder-based nanobrewery founded by local Chef Ian Clark, plans to relocate its brewery operations to an east Boulder space formerly occupied by the Rock N Soul Cafe, officials announced Monday.
Clark leased a 2,700-square-foot space at 5290 Arapahoe Ave. for BRU Handbuilt Ales and Eats.
The brewery and restaurant is expected to have 12 BRU beers on tap and offer lunch and dinner service featuring fare described by Clark as "rustic, approachable cuisine." This includes chicken sausage, spinach wood oven pizza and housemade goat milk ricotta, officials said.
An opening is targeted for April.
Clark, the former executive chef of Centro Latin Kitchen, started BRU Handbuilt Ales last year in the garage of his Boulder home. Clark said his wife called his creations "chefs beers" in that he would take a culinary approach to crafting a beer and building on the flavors of the beer styles.
"It's very, very exciting," Clark said of the evolution of BRU. "It's something I've been working hard toward for quite some time."

Hello all, Couple of newbies here. Our names are Kevin and Kris [brothers] and we are trying to resurrect a '25 TT steel cab from many years in the grave.
We have been around old cars our entire life as our father has about 200 cars and trucks from the '40s, '50s and '60s.
Kevin is into micro cars with a nice sized collection including King Midgets, Nash Metropolitian, and Crosley. If some of you WW-II vets promise not to give him too much trouble he also has Fiats, Messerschmitts, Isettas and so on. He also collects old scooters and ultralight airplanes.
Kris is into old garden tractors with a small collection of about 100. He also shows a 1948 Case VAO orchard tractor in full dress that he rescued from a hulk of rust and also has a weak spot for old cabover trucks although he only owns one - a 1955 Dodge COE.
The TT truck was a Craigslist find and we jumped in with all four feet. Might not have been the best financial move ever but we are having a blast! After a complete dismantle and evaluation, we are basically starting with the original frame and Warford. Everything else was pretty much toast.
We got the truck last March and have been gathering parts for nearly a year now so things are looking up.
I am not able to resize my pictures and they are too large so will try to include a link to my photobucket. If it works, more pics will follow.
Thanks for having us!!!!
I like it! I dig the radiator but I think it's for a tractor.
Greetings, Goldens. Welcome to the affliction. Looks like the TT needs a little work. Here are the next parts to put on your shopping list, if you don't already have them.
The Riad is an aftermrket for TT's as I have one on a old dirt track racer, if you need the wood kit for the top I carry them, also have a good left door w/trim, and frozen latch w/rust, but can be rebuilt. Have lots of TT parts email@example.com
Yeah, the radiator has beautiful honeycomb but its not right and tanks are shot.
Since that pic worked I'll keep going. This one shows the green engine before I de-mossed it with a power washer. Number 1 plug was out/broken and been rainin in there since before I was born.
Next is [or was] cab floor. You can see the tin worm made the cab beyond repair. I think leaves fell in there every fall and held moisture. The Warford wouldn't shift because of rust on the shift rods but inside looks like brand new.
After bath to remove moss and ready to come apart. Had a nice patina once clean- just too many holes along the bottom. Drivers door got opened at some point and was left dangling to eventually break off.
The Goldens
I've started with worse and patch panels are available. You will have a blast working on it and even more fun when driving it. When are the other three or four T's going to join it, one will never due you know.
Hi Kevin
Your photos as viewed at photobucket are small enough to post directly to the group.
At 133kb, 131kb, 118kb and 135kb file sizes, they are all smaller than the stated 200kb
limit (it�s actually 195kb) limit for posting to the group.
I�m not familiar with photobucket�s system, or if they may have automatically re-sized them.
The TT looks good as a project and there is a lot less things to restore as compared to a T car. Sounds like the golden family has enough experience to determine if the engine can be salvaged.
Have fun
I you decide to get rid of the radiator I would be interested
I forgot to mention brother Kevin has a 24 two door sedan he found in a local barn a few years back.
Also we are in Missouri.
Looks like a great project. Have fun with it guys! That is what it is all about. You will find a wealth of knowledge here - these guys are great!
Hopefully Hap posts his obligatory welcome post which is a huge help to newcomers.
Welcome to the forum guys. You've come to the right place. Stay a while and make yourself at home.
Kevin I'm in Fulton Mo, I have some patch panels for the sq cab and there are a lot more available firstname.lastname@example.com
Do you have patch panels for '26 touring center or "B" pillar panels?
OK, Thanks to Art's info and encouragement, I think I have this picture thing figured out. Thanks all for the welcomes and offers of parts/help. I will [try] to continue with updates.
I'll toss up a picture of the rear. Most springs were broken and everything on this truck was well worn when it was parked. Figure that and the fact that it sat in the same spot outside since the 1950's [only a guess]and with Missouri humidity to factor in more "rustability", you get a lot of deep rust pits in most every piece.
John Danuser, I met/talked to you briefly at the Queen City auction last May 5th.
We got several items at that sale but were so green we didn't know what parts were correct or what all we needed. We wound up leaving a flywheel we had purchased at the auction but got lucky as the ringman wrote our bidder number on the part when it sold. The seller called a couple of days later and said he had the part and would hold it for us. Kris drives a truck hauling ag chemicals and goes through Queen City often so he was able to stop in and get the flywheel within a few days. He had to back his companys Peterbilt about two blocks and up the drive since there was no room to turn around. The seller was gracious enough to give a tour of his cars, shop, and Kris even got his first ride in a Model T that day!
Model T's collect the nicest people!
You only have one chance to keep things original! My vote is get it in working order and drive it. Don't worry about the body. See my profile pic.
Kevin I have used springs not broken, and many T and TT Ford parts 573-642-2473
Thats a beautiful ride Mattthew. I do like the original patina look but the cab on our truck was only held on by the steering column. We had to strap it to the frame to haul it. The provisions to bolt it down are long gone.
if your not going to use the radiator i want it! that thing is cool!
Once down to the bare frame it was obvious the frame was bent so out came the bottle jack and a chain. When straightness was achieved, the frame had a date with some abrasive sand. The blaster guy found a couple of cracks so those were ground out into a "V" with holes drilled in the ends and then the crack got some 6011 rod melted in.
Next up POR-15 and companion Chassis Coat black gave the frame some protection from the elements that had been so hostile to the metal in previous decades.
We were very lucky to have two auctions right here in Missouri with a lot of Model T parts in 2012. The first one in Queen City in early May yielded some much need items and the second, a two-day auction near Smithville, MO in November had loads and loads of TT specific and regular T parts to choose from.
We really made a haul at the Smithville auction last November. Not sure the sale was advertised in the best manor. Really the only way we found the auction was we asked other T owners who might have parts. When called, the guy he said he couldn't sell anything because it was already listed in his auction! Had we not stumbled on this lead and in such a timely manor we would have missed out. We rolled out of the sale with two pickups and a 16 foot trailer loaded down. Unfortunately, a lot of good Model T items went to scrappers at that sale. The seller even bid a few items back in once he saw scrappers were about to win the bid! I'll be glad when/if scrap prices get back down to $35/ton.
I'm going to enjoy watching the resurrection of this TT. It's great to see the enthusiasm!!
Back in August while lurking here [before membership] I found this thread. Thanks to John Cassara for posting the ebay link! Most forums I am active on have a thanks button - wish there was one here.
In checking today the subject ebay auction link still works. We were the winning bidders on this Ford script bed in very good condition. Our truck came without a bed so this was very much needed. With minimal work and new wood it will be a real beauty!
I found the original thread on a Friday evening at about 10PM - the auction closed the next day, Saturday morning, and by Sunday daylight Kevin was on his way to Lewis, KS to get the bed.
Low and behold the seller also had the front half of the truck! The frame had been cut just behind the cab but the cab itself was in much better shape than what we had. Things were really falling into place. Luckily it all fit on the trailer. The seller just wanted to clean up his place and made us an awesome deal on the cab. The engine was still in the frame but the head had been off for many years and good ole Kansas sand was in every crevasse. This engine had the same abundance of compression [stuck] as our original engine. The rear half of the frame and rearend were nowhere to be found.
Here is a picture of the bed and cab on the trailer.
The gods of useable sheetmetal have smiled on you. Unfortunately I pray to the god of "sorry, I just scrapped it yesterday...".
Looks like some pretty cool cars in the background too. I always wanted a crosely wagon but Sonya says I have too many cars now.....
Backing up a little here but I wanted to show this picture. Those of you familiar with the steel cabs for TT's can easily see how much the cab has fallen down over the frame. Now I'm sure when we strapped the cab down to haul the truck on the highway we contributed to the problem - but a lot of metal has simply disappeared. The piece of metal mounted to the top of the frame under the back wall of the cab is supposed to be horizontal. It used to be some of the cab structure and the mount to hold cab to frame. The old battery cable is doing its part to hold the cab in place.
It is easy to see how far into the ground the truck had settled by how much of the spokes are missing.
Your welcome Kevin. I would have bid on that bed but it's much too far for me. I'd be happy to find the rear most cross member with the Ford Script on it and build the rest.......
Check my profile pic.
OK Here is the main crack the blaster guy found. The rivets should have been removed so I could separate the two pieces for a better repair but this thing is not going to be hauling any more loads. I did weld the bottom side too and I think this repair will be fine. You can clearly see the rust pits in this picture. For you T guys its probably status quo but I'm not used to working on something so old/bad.
Here is the frame looking much better. The etching process is messy but it really makes the POR-15 stick.
This is the load on my F250 after the auction last November. I didn't get a picture of the other pickup load or trailer but you can get the idea. The cab had already been blasted and nearly all the needed bodywork is done. This cab [#3] was even better than the one we got in Kansas. It also has the cutout for the Warford! This will really save us time on the restore. Included with the cab were the doors - they have some rot at the bottom but are very fixable. The Kansas cab did not come with any doors so we were jumping for joy. The third cab also has new wood top bows. I removed them for transport.
Also on this load is two 20 inch rims for the back of the truck. Our trucks rims were shot so this is a real blessing. The tall part of the load is the entire back half of another TT [frame and rearend] that had been used as a trailer. I have already torn the "trailer" apart to assess what we can use or need. This rearend has very nice axles whereas the trucks axles had pitting on the seal surfaces and would have leaked. The trailer setup also has beautiful leaf springs so they will be going on our truck.
We got another complete TT chassis at the auction and saved it from falling into the hands of the scrap man. Another major item was a complete 1919 engine that is supposed to run. At least it wasn't stuck so it is better than our other two engines.
The nice rear wheels shown in the picture did not come from the auction. Kevin found those a fellow had rebuilt for his TT then sold his truck without the wheels. We got them, rebuilt, painted and ready to bolt on for less than the cost of just buying spokes.
Here are the TT springs and hardware after a little cleanup. They will get a bath in POR-15 as soon as it is warm enough I can leave the shop doors open for an extended time.
Be sure you check your spring leaves closely for cracks. I had to replace a top leaf. That's a common TT problem.
Why do you think the TT top rear leaves are so often found cracked? When I did my truck I found one that was broken in half with with one half in place and the other half gone altogether. The one on the other side was simply missing. All the other leaves, once cleaned up, were fine. It just doesn't seem to me that there'd be that much stress there, an opinion that's obviously wrong.
Thanks Steve!
The second spring down from the top one [second from shortest] is cracked about half way across on both of these stacks. Since it will not be hauling anything I am hoping it will be OK to use. I figure the bottom 5 are more important than the top 4. Will that put significantly more stress on on other springs increasing the likelihood of more breakage?
Any and all input welcome.
You asked, so:
I suggest you make the effort to find replacement leaves. They're around, you just need to look a little. My uneducated opinion is that the entire stack works as a set. Any one of them not fully doing its job puts stress on the assembly (load or not) in a manner it was not designed to deal with, potentially causing other problems.
Just my $.02 worth.
Incidentally, I really like what you're doing with your truck. It's going to be a neat rig when you get it finished!
Guys give the length of the 2nd one down and I'll check my supply of loose ones email@example.com
Thanks John, I'll check the complete chassis from the auction when it warms up enough to get out there and see if they are good first.
Thanks Henry, That's what I asked for was opinions.
I have pretty much brought you up to where I am currently in the TT resurrection. A few months back I took the top off the Warford and everything looked good inside. Yesterday I tore it completely down. I found one questionable bearing and one of the shift rods has deteriorated quite a bit where the shifter catches it. My picture is horrid - sorry. After welding up the missing area, I reshaped it to where it will catch and work properly. The shifter itself also needed to be built up on the bottom end so i fixed that while I had the welder drug out. The bearing is a Gilliam brand - they sold out to Timken in 1925.
Kevin, looks like you guys are off to a good start. I have a lot of TT parts and I'm not too far from you. I live in Mound City, right on I29 in the N.W. corner of the state. If I can be of any assistance, let me know. Dave
Thanks David!
Kris delivers to the three agricultural chemical places on 2nd street in Mound city occasionally. Usually deadheads back towards home with a big empty truck too! :-)
We'll let you know if we need something.
Kevin, I work at one of those places (Yocum Service Inc.) part time as a welder. We do a lot of work on their spray rigs and equipment, building and rebuilding stuff. Let me know the next time Kris will be up here and I'll try to catch up with him. Dave
Nothing exciting to post today so I figured I'd post a picture of the radiator that came with the truck. It's not a honeycomb design like I thought but still has a kewell factor. We are going to be keeping an eye out for good top and bottom tanks in hopes of using it. ENJOY!!
It needs more bolts.
Looks great. I'm restoring a roadster pickup right now. My next T project may be a TT. Either that or a tractor. Of course I'd like to finish the project I have before buying another...
Kevin, send me a PM and let me know what company Kris drives for and maybe I can catch up with him. If he has some time, I can show him my "stash". Dave
I am picking through the rearend pieces and using the best of each piece in this rear. I noticed when I took the two rearends apart that one had four spider gears and one had two. Why the differences and is one better to use than the other? Thanks!!!
The two gear unit was the early one. Later, I'm not sure exactly when but I think about '23 or '24, the unit was beefed up with four gears.
According to the March 15, 1927 Price List, Chassis and Body Parts, Model T One Ton Truck booklet the differential pinion shaft (two gear unit) was used from 1918 until 1923. The differential spider (four gear unit) was used from 1923 until 1927. Only the shaft/spider and the differential gear case were changed. All other parts remained interchangeable.
Found an interesting flaw in the book. It lists the quantity per truck of part no. 1032, pinion gear, as 2 for years 1918-27 when the reality is that it takes 4 per truck when the later spider unit is used.
Thanks Henry!
I believe I'll go with the 4 gear unit. It has slightly less wear and might hold the torque better when I hit the nitrous button.
Kris, before you put that rearend together, I recommend that you install a set of the neoprene axle seals that are available from the vendors. Dave
Yes, definitely do what David suggests. Also, it's very important to replace the inner felt, one on each side just outboard of the inner bearing. I don't believe there are modern replacements for them, but you can get the felts from one of the vendors.
Remember, the inner felt contains the rear end oil, which also lubricates the inner axle bearings. The outer seal contains the outer axle grease. The space in between should have nothing at all but the axle shaft itself inside the housing tube. When the inner felt fails and the oil travels out to the outer bearings, it washes way the grease causing bearing failure and/or excessive wear on the axle shaft bearing surface.
If you're using the inner felt seals, they go on the axle between the inner bearings and the outer bearings. If you use the neoprene seals, as I would, they go inboard of the outer bearing sleeves. They'll stop the oil that gets past those felt inner seals from reaching the outer bearings and washing out the grease. Finally you have felt seals outside the outer bearings. Felt should be good enough there, as it only has to hold in grease, not oil.
Thanks a bunch guys!
I am/was confused about where the seals went. I did get new neoprene seals. I thought they went just outboard of the inner bearings - replacing the felt inboard seal. I also got new felt seals for either side of the outter bearing. Now that I found out the neoprene seals go just inside the outboard bearing do I still need the innermost felt seals or do I leave them completely out?
BTW, I'm glad to know the neoprene goes out far enough it doesn't have to slide over the rough - unmachined surface of the axle. I kept thinking there was no way that seal would survive.
And while I'm thinking about it, Where does the driveshaft felt go? There was none when I took it apart. I'm thinking just behind the bushing near the front of the driveshaft?
Thanks again for all your help. You just saved me from destroying $40 worth of new seals!
1. I used both the neoprene seals inside the outboard bearings AND the innermost felt seals. It sure can't hurt and it seems that it would provide redundant oil containment, something a T (or TT) could always use!
2. The drive shaft seal goes just forward of the forward worm gear bearing. I'm not sure what you mean by "near the bushing near the front of the drivshaft", but it sounds like you mean up at the other end of the drive shaft near the transmission. It does not go there.
I agree with Henry. It won't hurt to use both kinds of seals.
Here's the last part of assembling an axle. It's for a car, but some of the truck will be the same.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfxWPsF4KhQ&list=UUFVx528ORtpDgCPJXbFCA6w&index=2 2
I purchased a '13 roadster a couple of years ago with a replacement front spring. Apparently many of the old early front springs broke. It took me over 2 years to come up with a good replacement.
Today it was over 60 degrees so I gave the rearend a bath in POR-15. Won't be long this will be mounted along with driveshaft and Warford which also got a shiny new coat today.
Kevin / Kris
I have a 24 TT and am working on the frame and rear also. I am curious if you sandblasted the parts prior to the POR 15 application. I would also like to know how much material was used. Thanks Bill
I only had the frame sandblasted. I have a phobia about sand around any part that has bearings or gears. I learned that lesson years ago when I restored a David Bradley two wheeled garden tractor. :-(
I used a braided wire wheel on a 4 inch angle grinder to clean the rear and Warford cases. Tight areas get the same treatment with a Dremel tool. It took exactly one quart to do the entire frame, rear end, all springs, driveshaft tube, and Warford tranny.
good luck!

I was at the post office, felt the pre-shock (is that a word?), looked at everyone and asked if that was an earthquake. They all insisted it was a truck going by until a split second later when the bigger one hit. You don't feel trucks going by in the soles of your feet of a 1 story building!
JaclynRose - sounds like you've gotten the worst of it so far; hope all is ok.
Think maybe I shouldn't have cancelled my mother's earthquake insurance last week?

Hahah it's been a while sine we got an earthquake I think....
at least one that lasted longer than usual.
I was on my way out to work and the moment I closed my door it rattled.
It was my first earthquake I've ever felt from outside. It was kind of exciting.
I was on the phone with the boyfriend when it struck and a second after I said "woahhhh" he felt it too haah and he's about 15 miles or so from Diamond bar and I'm about 30 minutes away here in the I.E.
