I hardly consider taking a turn at almost negligible speed "driving like a retard." You ignorant fuck.

Use a PM next time.

Yea, I watched my other neighbor take prolly 15 running starts in a vain attempt to get their van into the garage. It was stuck this morning on the street, just like every car in the 'hood.

I tell you what. Why don't you use your "country" Dublin logic and tell me how 4WD is supposed to help you on ice? Friggen moron.

Bah, if you had a 4WD you wouldn't need to shovel.

I am not Ant. tongue.gif

Nice! Well Union County, where my shop is, is Level 3 anyway I just heard. Sweet.

Don't count on it. It's going to get SUPER cold very shortly, and this will all freeze solid!

Update: The Explorer just smacked the F150. They are now touching, quarter pannel to fender, and still trying to get unstuck.

So I get up at 6AM and start my truck up around 6:30, defroster on full blast. I head out at 7:00 to see the melting progress and...... ….still a 1/4-1/2" thick sheet of ice. So I bust through it with my scraper/snow brush, luckily the underside of the ice sheet has been a little melted and the ice "flakes" away. Cool. On the last smack, the scraper breaks off of my brush. Great. I’m pissed off about that, so I break concentration from the ice, and look around for a second. That’s when reality hits me... I see the 6-8" deep tire tracks through the streets of my neighborhood. Only one car has passed by, I'll be damned if had to have some ground clearance! Obviously a truck. I look at my truck, then at the street, and realize that the situation is much more dangerous than it looks. I call my boss to see what the deal is with work. He tells me that he is undecided, and that it's up to my personal discretion to go in if I think it's safe. So I sit there for a few min and ponder the situation. Okay, I'll be a good employee and go in. Hell, I've driven in worse - I think - so this should be no problem. I get out onto the streets and realize immediately how bad of a situation this is when my truck has difficulty making its own tracks in the snow/ice. I make it out on Alton-Darby road, 4WD blazing at an astounding 10mph, when it happens. I lose control of a 3/4 ton missile that launches itself sideways into a ditch. Sweet. I hop out of the truck to make sure there is no damage; it's a corn field, sweet. Looking around, I know there is no fuckin' way I'm getting up the embankment I just slid down. So I put the truck into 4WD Low, and plow my way through the middle of the field to a flat spot where I can pull out of it. Then I go the fuck home. I just pulled into my driveway, ego bruised a little. When not 10 seconds later a minivan careens by and SLAMS into the car parked on the other side of my street in front of my house. Yikes! I'm going to try and describe the scene in front of my house right now, since my camera is broken. Shortly after the van slammed the car (the van is resting where it stopped) a 2WD Pathfinder gets stuck in the MIDDLE of the T in the streets in front of my house. From one direction, is a stuck Explorer and F150 who are less than a foot from each other trying to get unstuck. I expect them to hit each other soon. On another direction is another minivan who was trying to drive through, but being blocked by the Pathfinder, had to put it in reverse and try to go BACKWARDS down the street. They are stuck now too, about 30 feet from the Pathfinder. An Accord is now stuck behind the second Minivan. Holy fuck. The moral of the story? DON'T GO THE FUCK OUTSIDE TODAY!

So I'm walking out the door this morning, it had been sleeting pretty hard for about 10 minutes (before any snow had fallen) so there was a nice slick coating on the streets. I go to get into my truck when I spot this Explorer huffing ass down my street. He sees that he needs to turn left onto the street in front of my house (I live on a T) at the last second, and like a stoned hockey player he tries to bank his undersized land-cow hard-left onto the street. Well, as you may have guessed, that failed miserably and the shmuck slammed his "truck" sideways into the curb and up into my neighbors yard. I chuckle at the sight, and seeing only his turd as the damaged party, I stroll over to make sure he didn't have a stroke. Here is our conversation: Me - "Hey man, are you alright?" Him - "Yea man, I'm straight. I don't know why that happened, I was using my 4WD!" Me - Blank stare... Me - "Right" as I shake my head and walk away. I hopped in my truck and took off; hoping that next time, there is a river or lake there instead of an innocent curb. I’ll bet his wheel bearings, at almost $300 each, loved today’s journey!

Haha, nice! Maybe I'll get out our 10 second FWD turbo car to come play! We BUILT it for the snow! 10.5" WIDE SLICK TIRES are the SHIZZLE for snow! You ride right on top of it like ski's! I'll OWN you!!!!!! graemlins/thatfunny.gif

I have Friday off.

Okay, Sam wins that one! graemlins/nutkick.gif Well, if you are going to talk about a contest, gimmie some fuckin' events.

Snowing like a motherfucker in Plain City. We are under a L1 snow emergency.

What are the events?

Marilyn Manson - "Man That You Fear"

Why in the hell is the FZ1 carbureted?! I can't seem to find any logic in why they choose to use an antiquated system, especially when all of their competition is EFI and has been for several years. In my opinion, it doesn't even allow that bike to be in the same league as other naked liter bikes. I was looking at this bike in competition to the Kawasaki Z1000 and the Honda 919 until I saw this. graemlins/nonono.gif

Damn.

Actually, I have mom's nose. You know that. I was wrong, the butter is smarter than you are. tongue.gif

Little? It doesn't get much bigger than a 3/4 ton/1 ton - unless you are running big rigs out there! graemlins/lol.gif

Obie Trice - "Lady"

Rob, you have the brain to match the butter, man. Well done!!

Anthony, I may have man boobs, but at least I can see my dick when I look down. graemlins/lol.gif
