  1. I'll bet they flew into that thick layer of CO2 that's causing all the global warming , err, climate change.
  2. Be sure to keep a close eye on what kind and how much coverage you are getting. A lot of those low rates don't have enough coverage if you actually needed it.
  3. Thanks for the info. I slowed down and started obeying more traffic laws when I first got my CCW, but I'm over it now.
  4. I'll bet you could smell him from a mile away.
  5. I, (I mean, my son) built a winning car once. This was for our local fair, not the scouts, but there were well over a hundred cars. I learned: 1. Aerodynamics don't matter. His car was simply the block. I have woodworking tools- this was his choice. He painted Bengals colors on it - crudely. Not only was his car a block, the surface was rough. 2. Relieve the wood behind the wheels so that only a small part of the body near the axle contacts the wheels. 3. Rub graphite into all parts of the wheels and anything that contacts them. 4. Drill holes in underside of car and glue in lead. Distribute weight evenly. I used some cast pistol bullets. 5. Add slightly more weight than is allowed. Depending on the accuracy of the scale, you may be approved. If not, use a pocket knife to shave off a little lead and re-weigh until you have the max allowable weight. Good luck.
  6. The one he's renting. My dad has owned a few Ford diesels and I don't think he's ever been out of the teens. He's usually lucky to see the high teens. Not a Chevy man, but I seriously doubt that a 3500 HD would average 20 mpg, let alone 35.
  7. ...and downhill with a tailwind. What brand/model truck is this?
  8. +1 I also pride myself in picking a line through a corner and following it smoothly on my bike.
  9. Nice meeting you too, Casper. I just rode around in the fields here, and I think I'm really going to like the DR. It sure is a lot easier to muscle around in the snow than my KLR650.
  10. +1 Our schools are full of that crap. I say don't let them return in any capacity.
  11. Good points. I stand corrected. Looking at it after the fact it was just snow, but it could have been anything inside.
  12. That bus driver did everyone a favor by removing a hazard. He ought to get a raise instead of being fired.

    My CCW

    Good choice. My daughter has one of these and it'll eat anything she puts in it.
  14. Yeah, they are tricky to tear down but it's a non-issue once you've done it a few times. Just read the directions and think it through. However, with the accuracy and reliability of my 22/45 I wouldn't care if it took twice as long.
  15. I like my Blackhawk. Size 1 for a P3AT. http://www.blackhawk.com/product/Pocket-Holster,82,34.htm
  16. I saw one on the road this week. Front looked like an indy car and the back an aluminum cigar.
  17. What are you going to build? Two in front trike?
  18. Yeah, it can be a real pain in the ass to heat with wood. But nothing beats the heat you get from it in the winter.
  19. I have one of those in an outbuilding and a smaller wood stove in the house. Be sure your chimney is up to snuff. Have it checked by a pro and clean it once a year. Burning green (unseasoned) wood produces a lot of creosote and you waste a lot of heat burning off the moisture. Get a stovepipe thermometer and put it on the pipe about a foot from where it enters the chimney. Be sure you keep the blower fans running or you'll overheat the outside shell. I had a power failure and it got hot enough to char the paint. Good luck.
  20. Wow is right. Makes one reconsider where/how they carry their CC gun.
  21. Man, that's nice. I wonder how much it weighs?
