Adrenaline is a wonderful and terrible thing. That was easily the most intense 2 minutes or so of my life. My leg hurt bad enough i was limping the next day, and in the moment my brain was so focused on getting away i never even felt it touch his bumper. I'll never forget that truck flying up from behind in my mirrors. I really think he was planning on just ramming me into that intersection.

Like many others have said, the first winter will be the equalizer. This country is just packed full of natural resources. It's also full of useless morons with no clue on how to utilize those resources. I'll be getting as far away from other humans as possible. The first few months will have plenty of people focused on killing each other instead of surviving themselves. The takers will die off when there is nothing left to take. Actually... come to think of that, Would it be such a bad thing? I think so many people will die in the first year or two, after that it'll be smooth sailing for those that are left. The useless will die off/kill each other, leaving a massive country that can easily sustain those that survived. Either that, or somebody/group gains control of the military and enslaves us all... then it's all fucked.

I had some guy pull out to block me, the car next to him swerved over cause she thought he was gonna hit her. I threaded the gap and that REALLY pissed him off. (I'll admit, i did give him the finger. Bad move) Next thing i know this SAME guy pops over across 2 lanes from the right shoulder, and clipped me with his front bumper. I didn't feel it at the time, armor FTW. I could have stopped in time, but no fucking way was i about to sit there and less this fucker shoot me. I made the split second decision to shoot for a nonexistant gap, and apparently bumped his car with my leg. Never felt it until the adrenaline wore off about an hour later. 1/4 mile later, I see him pacing me on the right shoulder again, 2 lanes of stopped traffic separating us. Hanging out the window, screaming. He managed to nail me with a full can of monster in the helmet. I pulled up next to a semi and stopped, he kept going since his view of me was blocked. At this point traffic started to move again, and he noticed i was no longer splitting, and was maybe 20 cars ahead. So he stopped traffic with his truck and got out, on the fucking interstate. Blocking the left and middle lanes. There was an exit ramp right there, so i cut over, gunned it and said a small prayer the light was green at the top. Akron University was right there, i had every intention of hopping sidewalks and riding through campus where he would be unable to give chase. The light wasn't green, traffic too heavy to make a turn, and i see him approaching at what looked like about 80mph. I thought he was just going to plow me over right there. There was a long line of traffic next to me waiting to make a left, so i pulled a u-turn in front of the lead car and rode down the ramp the wrong way, using the stopped cars as a barrier. I stopped about halfway down the ramp at the end of the line of cars and had to make another decision. Cut across the grass and try to merge on the interstate from the ditch, where he would have a chance to get back on, or take my chances head on. I chose the latter. He's out of his truck at the top of the ramp, chest puffed out, ready for a fight. Kinda parked between the lane to go straight and the one to turn left. Cars are all flowing past making the left, seemingly oblivious to what is going on. I decided my best shot was going right. I was not going to lift. If he was dumb enough to try and stop me, I planned on standing up and relaxing for a crash. I would probably walk away, he wouldn't. He was out of the truck and i had the upper hand at this point. He started to walk in front of me, but wised up and stepped aside as i passed. Took that corner hard, and got nailed with another can of something in the back of the head mid corner. He gave up at this point, or i lost him. Not really sure which, but after flying through down town i caught a red light and he was nowhere to be seen. What fun. Never been in such fear for my life. I'm really glad i wasn't carrying, because if i was i would have shot him in that intersection, without a doubt. All because he didn't like that a motorcycle can move through traffic when he couldn't. And yes, I still split. I just ignore all the road ragers instead of provoking them now.

That looks so fucking awesome. Hope it sticks.

My chevy fullsize pickup with one tire fire and loaded down with weight will pull amazing through snow up past the front bumper, but lord help you if you come to a stop. It's absolutely useless on an icy slope. It is however, a hell of a lot of fun sliding it around like a mad man at 10 mph while soccer moms try to pass you in their minivans. Nothing like using both lanes driving down the road at a 30 degree angle to the lane, looking out the passenger window, for blocks at a time. Wouldn't trade it for anything. Usually i don't even bother putting any weight in it since i don't live in the country anymore and they pave the roads with salt here. FWD/AWD might get you somewhere faster, but they all stop the same. I refuse to drive a FWD in the snow. I find it terrifying when you turn the wheel and nothing happens. With good throttle and clutch control a RWD is just effortless to control on snow.

That's a hell of a good price for a turbo. Usually they're around 5K. Those things had the most nightmarish fuel injection system ever though, insanely complex. I wouldn't want to have to troubleshoot one.

Facebook update.

I got my Indiana CCW at 19, but you aren't allowed to own a handgun under 21. To carry under 21 you have to have a CCW and carry a handgun registered to someone else. All my friends that carried did it legally with their parents handguns. There was no way my parents would do that for me, and i still don't own a handgun. But, my Indiana CCW is a lifetime permit.

Memphis... Mowgli..

I just scored a set of these off craigslist. http://craigvetter.com/pages/Motorcycle_Designs/Hippo-Hands-pages/Hippo-Hands-Main-page.html Hopefully I'll have a bike running this winter to get some use out of them.

One guy at work was talking about how he was saving up for his "intake cone" for his bike. Something like 800 bucks . After he walked away, I asked another guy who rides a Harley what he was talking about, and if he was paying 800 bucks for an airfilter. He laughed and said, well yeah, but that includes installation. He loves guys like that, cause he built his bike almost entirely out of factory take off parts. Hes got under 2 grand in his bike because of it, and i like it more than most Harleys, short of the XR1200X.

Sounds like a good price to me. Will the hot tank remove carbon deposits on the valves? I'd rather not have it blasted with anything but soda. I've got a good start on it already, Its be soaking in kerosene for like 2 months...

My buddy locked his keys in his car at my house once. I just hammered a flat head screw driver into the hatch lock. I was amazed how fast i was into his car. I just leave piles of trash all over my truck and leave the windows down. Nobody has cleaned it out for me yet.

Actually, i might just have you hot tank the cases too if the price is right.

Pm me a price on a head? It's a 350 four.. Four banger head, but its tiny as shit.

This is so tempting.... Can you post a picture of the perch? I need to pull the bed off my truck to fix a bunch of broken/rusted shit... so I need something to drive in the mean time. Don't want to have 2 trucks with blown out rear suspensions.

Aluminum safe hot tank?

Has the spring perch been fixed?

Good guys, Met them at mid ohio this year and shot the shit with them for a while.

Caveat emptor... You don't owe him shit. Probably just some dumbass who couldn't drive a stick. If you have records (like email) of you informing him of the issue, even better. Let him sue you. I wouldn't lose sleep over it.

An old guy i know went on a rant once about the TSA. He uses an insulin pump, and went through the body scanner, and was not questioned. He demanded to speak to a supervisor. When the supervisor came, he pulled up his shirt and said "DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS?" He didn't know what it was. He passed through the scanner with an electronic box with wires and hoses taped to his body no questions asked. The supervisor told him that he was responsible to notify the agents he wears an insulin pump. What a crock of shit. I really don't care, If TSA wants to look at my dong, they can. If it gives Betty housewife a false sense of security, fine. I'll look at it for what it is, a fucking joke. There is much more important things that should upset people more, (closing of public lands to name one) I should mention that i haven't flown since they implemented these, Why fly when you can ride there instead? If i do though, I'll make sure to achieve a massive erection first, haha.

I grew up in the country, now i live in the city. (Fucking job:nono:) I heard gunshots a few months ago, and didn't even think anything of it. The lady next door was distraught over it. It took me a minute to realize that it probably wasn't target practice, since i'm so accustomed to random gun fire. I lived close to a conservation club most of my life, and regularly heard my neighbors closer than that shooting guns.

I've never hunted before, even though i really want to. (My parents were extremely anti-gun) I didn't inherit that, and i enjoy shooting. This really pisses me off. First off, I'm under the impression that hunters respect the land more than anyone. I've never found a shell casing in the Hoosier national forest, even though during hunting season you hear LOTS of gunshots. I seriously doubt hunters are leaving their empty bottles of life water along the trails either. I REALLY hope this doesn't lead to more fucking deer. What the hell is going on? When i was little i remember we used to stop and look at them because they were rare. Now they're like god damn chipmunks. Driving back to akron from indianapolis a few weeks ago, I-70 and I-71 looked like something out of a zombie movie. Dozens of big red smears across the roads, guts and gore piled on the shoulders every few miles. My girlfriend hit one 2 weeks ago driving out here. Are hunters not keeping up? Do they issue all the tags allotted? It seems in just the past 3-4 years its gotten way worse.

School lunches are not the problem. At least in the public school i went to, They did a pretty damn good job of offering a halfway healthy meal. If i was still in school, I'd be fucking pissed if they were taking away pizza. Granted, I usually bought two lunches and threw my canned servings of nasty soggy vegetables in the trash. Looking back on it, I'm amazed how much i could eat as a teenager. 120 pounds dripping wet, and i had a voracious appetite. I would eat 2 bowls of cereal for breakfast, 2 ham sandwiches before lunch, 2-3 slices of pizza and whatever else at lunch, 2 more ham sandwiches mid afternoon, then a massive plate of spaghetti for dinner. I could eat a large pizza in one sitting. I wasn't even 100 pounds till the summer before my junior year of high school. I'm still skinny as fuck, but theres no way i could even eat a 3rd of that today without wanting to vomit.
