I did that on Sam's phone a while back. I'm thinking gremlins do the install then leave their business behind to cause problems.

I'm diggin' those flares on that. Nice paint work, air brush?

That's a way cooler and more sophisticated way of getting results. I used to uncover all the mounds, drop a cup of Coleman fuel in each and wait about 5 min for the fumes to settle down in the burrows, then drop one match and watch all the holes pop smoke. if it doesn't burn em out, it sucks all the oxygen out of the tunnel system. Usually works.

I actually Lift! Real weights, no machines...and then I woke up from the dream!


Actually I do
Dumbells, bench other stuff which I guess is not actually lifting. Core (Which is not lifting) Aerobics (Which is not lifting), Hustling everything heavy I can find whenever I can during the day to keep the burn going, (That might be lifting) and working all the time (Which is not lifting)

I believe that lifting those bumpers qualifies.

looking forward to reading more!

Glad you're not REAL messed up; any good head shot might have taken what was left! My good friend growing up restored a 67 chevelle Malibu and was rear-ended by a lowered 87 accord w/ 5 adults in the car doing about 40mph. He saw it coming in the rear view, threw it in neutral and took his foot off the brake. minor cosmetic bumper damage and a tweaked exhaust pipe with some bent hangers. the other guy: 4 adults escaped on foot. the driver was pinned in his seat by the... ENGINE. it had broken free from the aged motor mounts and come through the dashboard to rest on his upper thigh and chest. bad burns and soft tissue injuries for him, but Matt and the Malibu were basically un-harmed. Based on the damage to the truck's hitch, I half expected to see similar damage to the tundra, but I guess that ranch hand did a pretty good job of absorbing the impact.

I looks like a common roman stack like what I've got. they usually have a ridge in the tops of the block and then a cap set that fits over the top, so there is no need to stagger?

is dat Illinois(s) wit an sss fer yu der guys?

agreed

Touche'

Sounds familiar. I have a newer Nissan 350z that wants to race home every day, gets out of Boeing around the same time as me and has to always be one car length ahead of everyone. I watched him piss off the wrong dodge owner a few weeks ago and their 5-6" exhaust tip literally sits at window level. caught him at the next light and filled his open window with a black cloud that left him stuck at the green light for at least 30 seconds before he could clear it.

From my perspective, I'm bone stock with no plans to do anything but stay that way. I daily drive it and tow twice a month in the summer. Just ordered up AC Delco HD's yesterday, so I'll update w/ 1st hand info once they're installed. That said, having sold performance shocks for years before doing gear work, a good quality monotube gas shock like the bilsteins are very popular and seem to last longer than OE, but the ride quality is a little stiffer IMEO.

Always good to have new blood

Thanks!

Thanks. Got her dressed and did her hair myself, lol.

WOW Tate- women pay big bucks for curls like that; you could be dealing with better smelling fluids than Trans and Gear oil and work standing up!   Tate n' Nate's Clip, Curl & Q  - you styling and Nate "Q-in"

Can't claim too much responsibility for them; that's how they are out of the bath. My hair was blond and curly when I was younger. My wife's half Egyptian, (Coptic Christian side, not muslim side) so she's got some curls in there too. This is what we created. Now my sister in law, she's a hair stylist, downtown seattle, super fancy type. maybe we could uptown the Q and downtown the hair and come up with something. I like the name, lol.

Thanks. Got her dressed and did her hair myself, lol.

Been shooting these videos for two months now, but it's amazing how 1.5 hrs of shooting turns into 3, 45 sec videos after editing.

Try to land feet first, I hear that helps with landings ::) Nice to have you aboard!

Sorry Kooter, I just laughed out loud so I think she's funny too.

To expound on my original comment:

To be completely transparent, the "China" and "Taiwan" made products have certainly earned their stigmas over the years, but we are manufacturing in both places at this time. The difference between the good and the bad in my opinion is us engineering vs overseas engineering. In our case, we provided the machinery to cut the gears. We wrote the software that the machines use to cut the gears. We provided the "boots on the ground" training, on site quality control, technique, lapping process, heat treatment all on site. Then when the product lands we run it through our own qc on site. Spark spectrometer for metallurgy analysis, Rockwell hardness testing, coordinate measuring machine for dimension accuracy to the frog's hair. We pull from top, bottom, middle and sides of the shipment to make sure that we're not only testing the "good ones" they stacked on top for us to test. We have rejected whole container loads of product due to failure to meet our expectations. We don't make everything overseas. We make a lot of our products right here in WA in fact. What we run into is this: when you pay someone to do a job for you, overseas or stateside, you get what they give you. regardless of what you pay for it because they will always try to hustle you to cut their costs and increase their profits, so we have to have direct control to get what we want. Even after all those expenses it still winds up costing less to do business overseas due to taxes and other associated costs. Stateside manufacturing will take a long time to get back to the quality level we used to enjoy, and in the meantime there are some very high quality products out there and then there's a boatload of crap made to look like it. Duane and I were at the SEMA convention last year, and got to see 1st hand the multitude of copy cat artists out there along with AAPEX. There was a section at AAPEX that was dedicated to exhaust and catalytic converters. I kid you not, I walked past 5 different companies selling the exact same converter. even had the same display but with different names associated with it, and each one of them professed to "make it themselves". I wish and pray that we get back to Detroit and Pittsburg building for America. Let's hope our future president gets this figured out.

That's because most LEO's have reason and practicality to go on. Hey, at least no one in your party was hurt or robbed at gunpoint, and they didn't cut the wires, but I'm betting if this were TX and they automatically assumed all the fairgoers were carrying those robberies wouldn't even have been planned, let alone carried out.

Nice work there RN. We do the camping at the water park thing too; nice to be first in line and to not have to drive home exhausted after the long day.

Well.... let me just start by saying, good game. I have moved on from the 1 yard line travesty/tragedy/heartbreak pass call. I have moved on from deflate gate, (had nothing do to with Butler's hands and speed and timing). I will not piss and moan about penalty calls, or bemoan Chancellor for holding out for more cash, as this is not a charity sport. I will call out Lynch and the offensive line, who was attempting to prove that he should have had the ball during that contest last night and failed. C'mon man, against St Louis? Maybe should have attended a few more practices there buddy.

Man, I can't lie. I've been in the same situation in my parents old place. My dad's working and mom and 3 sisters are hysterical. I come walking in all big and bad until that little SOB started flying around and buzzing us then all bets were off! I grazed my hair and I screamed and ran louder and faster than they did. Eventually it flew out an open door. I cannot judge you my friend.

I'm almost giddy with excitement for what this year brings for both of them. Just confirmed the other elective is Environmental science, which I used to teach the merit badge for. (granted I'm sure his class will be much more advanced, but at least I can help right?)
