Hey guys, just finished up my new daily ride. It's an 07' Cobalt LS in black. I wanted to go serious dorifto with this one so I started with a set of oversized wheels and undersized tires, lmk whatcha think about it. Cobalts seem to be okay daily drivers and the handling is second to none, I've been out drifting and it seems to be pretty stable at speed. This morning on the way to work was by far the best, traffic was heavy so I decided to make it my own personal drift course. I pulled off some mean slides down 270 and then tore up an empty parking lot as well after grabbing some McD's. I have a feeling this car is going to be fun, looking at a SS/SC Eaton for it right now, need more power to keep the powerslides going! Haha! Here's a pic, let me know what ya'll think of it.4 points

Ok, so their is this truck driving around OSU today from Fix Gun Checks.org had some time to check it out and they seem to have a decent stance I think. as far as the background checks go. When I bought my gun I had to have one done not sure about other states. I have a pic of the truck I'll post up here later. Let me know what your views are. Website: www.fixgunchecks.org1 point

There are so many sides to this thing it is ridiculous. I have been to all of the readings of SB5, in the statehouse with the exception of the last one which we were locked out. I am a member of the IAFF local 910. Our last contract we negotiated minimal raises, and increased our contribution to insurance premiums. WE offered these to the city, because we were well aware of the financial crisis we were in. Our previous contract went to a fact finder and concilliator, and we lost, receiving 0%,0%,0% and a raise in our insurance contribution effectively resulting in a pay cut. I know that all unions are not like ours, and some will protect poor workers, but that is not the case with most public safety forces. When I was hired, we were evaluated every 6 months, and there were recommendations made for raises off of these evaluations. The city opted to take this out and just do across the board raises no matter what. So now it is turned around so that it looks like we are ALL the bad guys.. The reason I have been after this so much is the fact that collective bargaining and binding arbitration protects my safety at work. Ohio is a non OSHA state, and the labor laws that cover firefighting are very vague. NFPA standards state that there should be 17 firefighters to effectively battle a house fire.....we do it with 5 or six. I can guarantee the first thing the city will take from us is our minimum manning clause, reducing our on duty crews to 4, and putting us in more danger. The loss of binding arbitration, or the third and neutral party involved in the concilliation process will only cost the state and the cities and counties more money. Kasich is leading everyone to believe that the arbitrator comes from out of state, which is against the law and prohibited by SERB. The arbitrator has to be familiar with the situation to make an effective ruling. without binding arbitration, the contract negotiations that come to an impasse, will go to the local court where they will be decided on by a biased judge, and cost both the employer and the union large amounts of money. I could ramble about this all day long, but I am not going to get all redfaced and jump up and down. I just want anyone who takes the time to read this to understand that not all union people are out to get everything they can. I worked hard, studied hard, and love the job I do. I really do not want a rogue Governor pulling the rug out from under me and my family.1 point

Ah yes, the group of people gathered around to grumble how the Obama and the OMGLEFTMEDIABBQ is eviscerating the country with a spork and to give brown/Mexican people the stinkeye. Well intentioned site, but when it comes down to it that's what this is all about. For those of you that are saying Libya's going to go into civil war, yummy down on this little nugget: The people shooting at the protestors aren't Libyan, but mercenaries recruited from sub-Saharan Africa, reportedly at a rate of $2k/day by one of Gadhafi's sons. Also, the ruling party is primarily made up of Sunni's who, because they are a MAJOR minority, import their troops from southern Africa. Works out for the troops in that they get paid a lot better, works out for Gadhafi in that he's got people that know who signs their checks and are loyal to him, not to the people or to a party. Also it's easier (relatively speaking) to fire on the citizens when you really have no connection to them. If there is a "civil" war, it's going to end just about the time that Gadhafi is gone. I have to imagine a similar thing is going on with the pilots, but there was just news today of a Libyan destroyer showing up in Malta as well.1 point

Thanks for the opportunity for the forum. My interest for cars are mainly old school toyota's, but I respect anything built for speed regardless if it's American, German, Japanese, etc. Btw, my name is Jessie and I just moved here over a year ago. I stumbled on this site from another car site and I figure it's worth a shot.1 point

Whatever dude. Your boy BJ Clinton fucked that one up. As he fucked up a few other situations. And don't tell me I'm wrong. I was in during this "shitstorm" as were many of my people while you were busy trying to figure out what your pecker was for. And you want to know the real problem with Africa is?Here it is.* Nobody gives a fuck about Africa.1 point

Speaking of police stories, I read one a long time ago that was hilarious. Don't know why, just was at the time. So a cop pulls a guy over for speeding. He walks up to the car and said, "Son, I've been waiting here all day for you!" The guy looks at the officer and said, "Well, I got here as fast as I could!" The cop just laughed and let the dude go...1 point

These are actual comments made by West Virginia Troopers that were taken off their car videos: 1. "You know, stop lights don't come any redder than the one you just went through.." 2. "Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new They'll stretch after you wear them a while" 3. "If you take your hands off the car, I'll make your birth certificate a worthless document." (My Favorite) 4. "If you run, you'll only go to jail tired." 5. "Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? Because that's the speed of the bullet that'll be chasing you." (LOVE IT) 6. "You don't know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?" 7. "Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I'm the shift supervisor?" 8. "Warning! You want a warning? O.K, I'm warning you not to do that again or I'll give you another ticket." 9. "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?" 10. "Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey poop." 11. "Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven." 12. "In God we trust; all others we run through NCIC." ( National Crime Information Center ) 13. "Just how big were those 'two beers' you say you had?" 14. "No sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we can." 15. "I'm glad to hear that the Chief (of Police) is a personal friend of yours. So you know someone who can post your bail." AND THE WINNER IS.... 16. "You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we don't. Sign here."1 point

The best part is that "j" is right between "n" and "i" on a keyboard. He had too put more effort into reaching for the "g" so he could miss-spell it. Lmao.1 point

Anyone else think that its funny that after selling any and all personal belongings worth a shit to be able to afford to have a child only to get ahold of a chunk of cash and the most important thing to buy is a fucking "race car"! Actually it isnt very funny, its sad... You should be proud. But I am sure you will have to sell it soon anyways just to pay child support. Hope you lose another rear end!-1 points
