  1. Crutchfield. Got a cheapo Kenwood for the Avalanche when the stocker gave up the ghost. Better than I had hoped. Remote control, aux input, removable face. Less than $100 if I remember correctly, with installation kit.

  2. picture.php?albumid=1078&pictureid=12415&thumb=1 picture.php?albumid=1078&pictureid=12416&thumb=1 picture.php?albumid=1078&pictureid=12417&thumb=1 picture.php?albumid=1078&pictureid=12418&thumb=1 Ordered from Comp Acc. My old Teknics finally got enough holes in them that I couldn't ignore them anymore. These are XXL, but actually closer to an XL. White with black and red accents. Still tethered together with all tags, bag, etc. Paid $153 plus shipping etc. Comp-A wants 10% restocking fee, plus it'll cost about $6 to send them back to them. Photo of gloves out of packaging are the set I'm keeping (3xl). Offering them here for $140, plus $5 shipping. Saving you about $15 on the pair ($153 + $6 shipping if you bought from CompA).
  3. Biggo. Make it worth your while: go at night. The fun really starts at darkfall. Its funny, cuz when you're walking around the place on Sat and Sun morning, nobody makes eye contact with anyone else.

    I had a hard time detoxing from Chilli after the couple of years that I went. For the week after the event, I kept expecting women in public to lift their shirts.

  4. Is it true that even though Obama said that absolutely, positively nobody making under $150k, then $200k, and finally $250k (as his campaigning rolled along) would pay any more taxes than they were at that time, but that taxes have already been raised? I don't get a salary/ standard paycheck, so don't have anything solid to compare to (other than my quarterly taxes), but have heard that peoples checks are smaller than they were when he got elected. New/ larger/ additional payroll taxes of some sort.

  5. Little different scenario, but a few years ago, my parents bought an Infiniti J30. USA owners manual dictated 92-93 octane ("premium fuel"). The Canadian owners manual for the exact same car stated that 87 or higher was to be used. Asumedly, computers would control the knocking/ pinging, as most cars do now. Bikes aren't as computerized, of course. Even after I pointed it out, dad would never put less than 92 in that car.

  6. I still see high octane (91/ 92/ 93) at most stations. I would guess that it may not be the freshest, due to minimal use. Only a few smaller mom and pop shops (i.e. Marathon in Clarksville) only offer 87 octane, on all of their pumps.

    Used to be a place near Linden and Woodman that sold Turbo Blue, and I would bet that there's someplace in/ near Xenia that sells race fuel, due to Kil Kare.

    I used to run 92/ 93 in my bikes "because they use so little" (which isn't true. My 250 gets about 33 mpg), but tried 87 a few weeks ago and didn't notice a real difference. But it was hot as snot out, too, so maybe I was hallucinating.

  7. Breeze 125 ATV, but that shouldn't matter. Pull choke w/ cable from frame mounted knob to carb. No mods. Choke cylinder is "stuck"/ seized in its tube. Have it soaking in WD40 (great solvent, crappy lubricant) and Rust Eater.

    Any ideas on unseizing this? Only been sitting for a month, so not sure why it pulled this. Considering heating (yes, very aware of fuel/ solvents/ fumes/ etc).

    Any thoughts?

    TIA

  8. Hannity is in that portion (highhhhh income) that will feel the brunt of the taxes.

    Atlas is about to shrug. Overtax the achievers, and they'll stop working. They'll pull their money, sit back, and wait for things to change.

    I didn't find anything on the minimum wage earners specifically, but the study I found showed that the middle segment of the middle class (approx 20% of the population) will be paying about 50% more in federal taxes. Minimum wage earners don't pay taxes, anyhow. They typically get back more than they give. All part of the redistribution.

    It frustrates me when Justin/ jrmmiii and Cheech say "go find facts", but its actually a good thing. I'm not going to convince them to be conservative, and they're not going to convince me to be liberal. Having to back up statements is not a bad thing. Thats not to say that I'm going to go pull sources on everything I post, but I may think twice before posting it. For example, I had a rant last week where I said something to the effect of "liberals want to save trees, but kill babies". Find a source? Not worth it, when its a recognized truth. I think its interesting (and sometimes maddening) to see how the other side thinks, whatever the "other side" may be. At least things are usually kept fairly civil.
