I know two couples who got married after 6 weeks of knowing each other in tech school. One is already over and the other is good but I give it a year.
-
For just that go to harbor freight and pick up a 60 dollar hvlp.

Pretty funny, I saw it on Sat.

I just got this thing today and Im gonna give it a try.

I got a new laptop today and it has Vista home on it. I downloaded LimeWire and can't get it to connect. I read under the support page on their site and they mentioned Vista with mcafee have issues letting LimeWire connect. I ran through and tried to change everything they mentioned to get this thing to connect but I still am having no luck. Anyone have any tips on how to make this thing work?

I go to sawmill and Hilliard after work which is about 7:00-7:30. I was just in Hilliard last night.

I would definatly go with the edge. I have been around a lot of chips and edge is by far the pic for me and for most of the people I know with boxes. An adjustable box like that will completely change your truck and will really wake that 7.3 up. I would also recomend and intake and decent exhaust to wake it up and help the miliage.

I don't know if I should or not but I'm gonna try to sell the truck. I love it but I have some other projects. The truck for sale is the one in my sig. I bought it from my buddy two years ago and have only put 8k miles on it. The truck has 199k miles on it as of yesterday. I bought it with 191k. The following are the mods that I can remember as of now. Brand new Schied vp44 Injection pump Fass Fuel 150gph Lift pump Oversized fuel lines to vp44 Brand new powr lok limited slip with 4:10 gears Midly built stock rebuild auto trans with 12k miles Deep tranny pan New stock injectors with 12k miles Edge Comp 160hp 350ft lbs 5 way adjustable box with wire tapped Full Magnaflow 4 inch exhaust including 4" downpipe with no muffler and 5" magnaflow tip K&N Filter Full A-pillar guage set with all needed guages and steering console fuel press guage 4.5" skyjacker add a leaf lift 17" helo max 8 rims 35x12.50 nitto mud grapplers New set of BF Goodrich Long Trail tires with 100 miles and stock rims I know I'm forgetting a couple things Truck pushes about 35-38psi of boost. A friends motor with similiar mods dynod at about 425hp and 765lbs. Truck is pretty much fully loaded except for leather. It runs great and have had no problems except for Injection pump issues that have since been fixed with new pump. For the bad: The back seat has a couple rips in the seat, and the driver side door decided to develop a spot of rust on the bottom while I was in Texas. It has a few chips here and there from rocks that the tires throw and a small dent in the bed. It needs new sway bar endlinks to put the sway bar back on. I don't use it because I drive fine without it. Truck can easily see 18mpg if driven right. I don't drive like a nun so this is as high as I've gotten. Don't let the miles fool you either, it can be driven everyday and often is. It does not seem like a truck with 199k on it. I don't have to sell the truck so I'm not negotiating on the price $16,500 firm. Pm me for any questions or interest.

Im trying to book a vacation to go. I've read that it is Feb 5th this year. What days do I need to be down there? Lets get one thing straight first, I'm strickly going for the tittays and the beer. Where can I get a hotel with a balcony and be in the middle of it all. Is it on bourbon street or in the French Quarter? I may be wrong but I was under the impression that the party lasts like all week, but the actual holiday is on Tues the 5th. If someone could give me some insight that would be sweet. I'm looking to book this week.

My Great Grandfather died a month and a half ago and I was in Texas. I hadn't seen him in five years because I was so busy. Now I regret it all.

Brian aren't you Army or something? They just started this year offering discounts for Military. Make sure you tell them you are active duty. My buddies both just got all day passes and rentals for $5. It was a good weekend for riding.
-
Anyone going to Mad River this weekend? I am about to leave to be there for opening. Tomorow they are open from 9:00-9:30.

Why because It took me so long to get home?

I had a couple offers last year during the winter to push snow but turned them down becuase of not having a truck. Im thinking about buying a cheap truck with a plow. Is there anything I should make sure I get. I want one with a spreader too. I'm not to familiar with the equipment or anything so any advise is worth it too me. I dont mind the long hours at all and I have my brother to help me, what is the best way to aquire some accounts over in the Dublin/Hilliard, Plain city/Marysville area. I haven't had the same offers this year but then again snow just started to fall. I don't want to buy something and get stuck with it because I cant make any money.

Im looking to put together a little Snow shoe trip in Feb. Jose Cuervo week is at the very biggining of the month and is supposed to be one of the best weeks to go. I will probably go a couple times this year but so far have a nice little group interested in gettting something together in Feb. Just wondering if some others would be interested in going. The new expedition station has very nice little studios and two bedrooms with dens. I get emails with deals of $199 per person for two nights and two days worth of lift tickets. That is in a studio that can sleep 4. I also get military discount on top of that so I am booking for some friends. For those who don't know snowshoe is in WV and is about a 6 hour drive. If anyone is interested let me know. I plan on booking within the next week or so seeing as how it will only be about a month and half away.

I do all of my test firing in my back yard. My buddies buy guns like crazy and we all get together and shoot each others. So you can figure any nice new gun to the market I can usually get my hands on. I haven't tried the trace grip yet but have heard nothing but wonderfull things about it, and plan on buying very soon.

I just had my Ram out for the first time since I've been home yesterday. I come out of Nyohs last night at 2:30am and there is 2 inches and falling hard. I have never had my truck in the snow since I have a winter beater and I forgot for a minute that I even had 4 wheel drive. My nittos dont do well in the snow being that they are so wide and their givin tread design. It took me well over an hour to get home. Im mostly just pissed I got salt on my truck and on my rims.

Almost everything else I have is .40. I wanted 9mm to carry. I can shoot more accuratly at faster speeds. The XD sub compact felt like dogshit in my hands. Almost as retartded as a baby glock. I shot a baby glock .40 (whatever series that is) and I wanted to throw it in the pond when I was done. I felt like it was going to come out of my hands each time I pulled the trigger.
-
Anthony where do you shoot? I go out back of my house and shoot as I will be doing first thing in the morning. Im gonna sight in an AR-15, shoot a couple shotguns and try my new pistols out.

http://www.guntechinc.com/SWMPCOMPACT.jpgOn sale through the end of the month for $389 at vances. Its a S&W M&P compact 9mm. Seems like a step up from their sigma series, which has been a great gun for me also. Im more of .40 cal guy but I want a 9mm to carry. I went in looking at the compact XD 9mms and glock 19s and was shown this and I had to have it. I also bought a XD 9mm but in the midsize version. They are also on sale for $399. By the time I left with everything else I spent $1K but Im happy with it, and I love XD's.

Any decent shop should be able to get them out. I usually just use a little heat and a hammer.

My weekend was almost as exciting seeing as how Friday night I couldnt sleep and ended up with exactly 0 hours of it only to have to get up at 4:30am to start getting ready so that I could report to duty on base at 6:30 in Springfield. After an 18 hour day of watching yearly training videos and the Chiefs retirement party I was able to get home, which is an hour drive might I add. Only to get 4 hours of sleep and do it all over again on Sunday. Hooray for my sweet weekend!

Does anyone know any gun shows coming to town in the near future? I've never been to one but have something I am looking for and I might be interested in buying a new handgun. Are they worth going?

For some reason this makes me feel like I'm getting old. I used to love watching this guy. http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/11/30/obit.knievel/index.html?section=cnn_latest

Another thing to think about is the weight difference between the different kind of bikes and the liter bikes compared to 600. While on paper the weight doesn't look like much of a difference but to an unexperienced rider every couple pounds make a difference and where the weight is located in the bike. I learned the hard way with a top heavy Harley. It's all not just about the size of the damn engine. Notice the only people saying hey its cool get the big bikes I did it and I'm fine are the people with no experience or did it and are justifying it. I'm not here to cause a pissing match or point fingers but even though I'm not that old I have a few years under my belt of streetbikes and have owned a few, I am still learning everytime I ride. I've been through a very bad accident that was user error and I have also saved myself many times. I am very far from a professional but I encourage everyone that buys a first bike to go small and go cheap. I've been around lots of very modest people that respect their 600s that still go down. This is all just coming from someone that doesn't wish harm on anyone, and someone who's little brother is about to buy is first street bike and I will beg anyone just the same as I am begging him to start small. What can it hurt. For some of you big bike newbies, not to be an asshole but your time has just yet to come, and your mistakes just haven't been made yet. Just my two cents.
