    Do it.

    Who says I don't shave down there?? My bigger question is how does "pretty small a-hole" = me sporting a big pecker? Not that I care to share dimensions with you.......
  2. I've seen little air filters that are designed for something like that. Better than pantyhose, I'm sure.
  3. I got my information DIRECTLY from one of the people in charge of deciding whether or not to purchase this. You are getting yours from a press release. Not only that, but do you really think the BIG 10 has no control over which channel gets what game? I'm sure every game, per contract, is APPROVED by the Big 10 on which channel "Disney" puts each game on. IE: Disney says "we want to put x game here, y game here, z game here. Ok or not?" It is 100% ignorant to think that the Big 10 would give up any and all control of how their games are broadcast. You can damn well bet part of their contract is negotiated based on what games go where. I'm sure there is also allowances based on team rankings and such throughout the season for a number of games, so it's not a rigid thing at the begining of the season, excluding key games, like what channel the OSU/Michigan game will be on, for instance. Do you really think the contract is as simple as "here's some money, we can do whatever the fawk we want with these games." If what you were saying were the case, why not put the OSU / Michigan game on ESPN-U? Pretty much the biggest college game of the year, and much more forceful way of getting cable providers to purchase it. Or they could have done it w/ the OSU/Texas game, another one that everyone knew was going to be a highly watched game.
  4. Do you guys want the real scoop on it?? We had a long talk about it at work today. ESPN U is a specialized ESPN channel that mostly play obscure sports most folks don't watch (women's softball, Lacross, etc.). Basically, they went to the BIG 10, said "we want to have this one OSU game on ESPN U" Big 10 goes, ok, it's going to be $xxx dollars. Then they said "we don't want it to be broadcast on any local network either." At that, Big 10 says "ok, even MORE money." From what I gathered, ESPN had to pay quite a fortune to do this. This is a strong arm tatic by ESPN. Very few cable providers in the nation offer this ESPN U channel, as it is expensive. ESPN does not want their channel on a premium service, such as a sports package or digital package; they want it on basic cable. By doing stuff like this, it's an attempt to force cable providers to offer their channel. But the end result is that the cost of this channel would FORCE a cable company to charge more for whatever package they put it on. And for what, the one game a year they purchase?? Basically, if put on a digital or premium service, they would charge EVEN more than what they want for it put on a basic cable service. There are still ongoing negoations w/ WBNS to carry the game locally, and though unlikely, there is still a small chance of it. If that does happen, I'll be one of the first to know, and will post up that info. It is also looking like the Big 10 may take some flack over this deal, and rightfully so. Neither WOW nor Warner offer it, and Insight only on their special sports package (and are probably paying a pretty penny for it, that cost going to the subscriber). And I doubt WOW or Warner will ever offer it, simply because they don't carry any programming worth the price hike.
  5. - Why are you putting a harness into a car w/ out a cage? Trust me, they are cool for about 2 days, then just a PITA. I have mine because I have to. - I'll never own another harness that's not a camlock. Latch styles suck; they are cheaper for a reason. Just sucks the damn things expire every two years. - NHRA hardtop rules, 13.99 and faster requires a SN95+ helmet (SN98+ next year) - NHRA requires a 3-2A or better jacket for 11.99 to 10.0 - My shoulder belts are attached to the center bar of my rollbar. My lap belts are through the stock belt mounts. My crotch strap is attached to my Wolfe crotchstrap bar.
  6. Not exactly the kind of car you want to buy in beat-up condition. They aren't exactly repair cost friendly.

    Do it.

    I've never had good luck with PIITB. Not so much on the convincing side, but I must pick women with some pretty small a-holes.
  8. I'm sure there was a 9" in the back, and a TH400 tranny under there too, with a 2-step and transbrake.
  9. That was freaking great.
  10. Hmmm, that makes me think about how I've always had a small desire to try out a deaf chick....... I've never had good luck at bars/clubs. Sure, I can get digits, make out with some broad there, etc. but usually when it does turn out into a date, either I was way drunk when I met her and she is a dog, or has some freaking issues. I've had some luck with the online dating thing. Just ask for pictures, recent, and full body shots, because you can't imagine how ugly some chicks can really be in person. Hell, I met one a week ago that I've had 3 dates with, that has turned out to be pretty awesome (a real carreer, cute w/ very tight body, fun to hang around with). So not all of those chicks you meet online are freaks that can't get a date. That said, don't pay some Match.com or E-harmony crap to find a date online. Chat it up w/ a chick on Myspace or webgroup, or some free personals site. IMO that's a good way to meet someone when you are just getting back into the swing of things. I met my last ex-g/f tailgating at last year's OSU/Texas game. Lots of chicks down there. Around that same time, I scored a number and some interest off another hottie, but I started really getting into the ex so I never did anything w/ the other chick. Another option for you.
  11. Me too. Oh wait, Road Runner is there because Warner and Insight have to hire some 3rd party company (RR) to do their tech and backend support.
  12. That Parkbench guy had the only worthwhile posts that I read. The rest was a bunch of retarded ricers. "Ohhh, you should get a new car for this." Yeah, sure there buddy.
  13. Small??!!! They look overly huge!
  14. 70k for what looks like a beefed up 350Z. I'd rather just have a C6 Z06 that will wax the floor with that Skyline. My guess is this new Skyline will be AT LEAST 3500 lbs.

  16. I work near there, and that whole area is a total cluster fuck. But what REALLY pisses me off is the exit to 161 West bound being closed from 270. That costs me about 5-8 minutes going to work every morning, and getting back to the office in the evening, costs me around 15 minutes.
  17. The guy forgot to mention the Camaro had his cruise control set to 65. You are wrong. Don't argue.
  18. Howard, I assume you have a Sawzall; those work great on trees to (which is how the 30' dead tree in my back yard came down ).
  19. Go big or go home. Rossler Glide, TH400, or go crazy w/ the TH210.
  20. You should be able to get an 02 SS or WS6 for under 20k now, as long as they aren't rag-tops, 35th Anv, or CE models.
  21. Keep the spoiler. IMO the stock 03-04 Slowbra spoilers are one of the only good looking spoilers for a Mustang. But I've already told you this before, lol.
  22. My roomate has a set I'm sure he would be willing to sell. I'll ask him tomorrow.
