  1. Looks good man. It looks alot better now than it did 7 hours ago.
  2. On corral you said that was a second gear burnout. That true?
  3. OK, it has a RAM AIR hood, a cold air intake that goes into the fenderwell (where the RAM AIR hood can't force any air into the engine, and a damn INTERCOOLER. Anyone else have a problem with a car with ram air, and an intercooler? Especially if neither one are functional?
  4. I'm no moderator. Just a general warning to everyone. i fought to get the right to post those topics back. I'm disappointed in the result. If you can't tell what is appropriate from what isn't, maybe we shouldnt have had that right after all. Not my fucking job.
  5. This thread prompted me to start a new thread. Here's a link. Who likes posting political topics?
  6. I only ask because it is a privilege. Some of you guys are borderline on acceptable behavior. Keep it under control, or you'll lose it.
  7. The inside of cast iron blocks have historically had alot of problems with pieces faling off, and into the oil. Not sure about more modern engines, but I know almost all old school racers used to paint the inside to keep debrit from making its way off of the metal and into the oil.
  8. The Mark VIII came out in '93 with 280HP stock.
  9. Most carriers have a limited amount of coverage I wonder if he hit the limit? Be bad to find out you hit 19 cars with a value of approx. $10k apiece, and then only be covered for $100k in damages. Would serve the guy right, though.

    Religion

    I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said "Stop! don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!" He said, "Like what?" I said, "Well...are you religious or atheist?" He said, "Religious." I said, "Me too! Are you christian or buddhist?" He said, "Christian." I said, "Me too! Are you catholic or protestant?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me too! Are you episcopalian or baptist?" He said, "Baptist!" I said, "Wow! Me too! Are you baptist church of god or baptist church of the lord?" He said, "Baptist church of god!" I said, "Me too! Are you original baptist church of god, or are you reformed baptist church of god?" He said, "Reformed Baptist church of god!" I said, "Me too! Are you reformed baptist church of god, reformation of 1879, or reformed baptist church of god, reformation of 1915?" He said, "Reformed baptist church of god, reformation of 1915!" I said, "Die, heretic scum", and pushed him off. -- Emo Phillips

    Calm down bro. I am not advocating tearing any books out of the bible. The Catholic church already did that when they chose which books they wanted to use from the Torah. The entire bible is subject to interpretation. I don't think there is anything in there that a believer shouldn't view with a critical eye. Obviously the things we mentioned wouldn't be received well in todays world. Continuing along the same lines of thinking, when reading from the bible, in my belief I think it best to think of other people. Some people have a hard time doing this, even though from what I understand the Christian religion is said to be based on forgiving. I have met several people who interpret the bible this way. Unfortunately I have also met many more who have used it to discriminate, and use the book as a scapegoat for their own biases and hatred. I have a problem with using any holy book in this manner. To me, the purpose of any religion is to bring people together, but hey, every religion has its crazies. Look at these guys in the middle east. They are similar in their theories to the crazies in Israel, and even right here in the good ole USA. Those people who bomb abortion clinics and gay bars in the name of religion are just as bad. Religion should be used as a guide when you have trouble making your own decisions. SO. To sum up, are tattoos really a desecration of a holy structure (the body)? I don't think so. But then again, that is also one of the things that is up to an individuals interpretation. I don't think it is. What's your take?
  13. I always used photoshop elements 2.0. Thats how I did my current sig (and then someone stole it).

    job question

    The book of Leviticus also says it's OK to own slaves (Lev 25:44). Oh, and another good one: If you blaspheme, you should be stoned to death (Lev 24:16). Last one, if you sleep with your in laws, you should be burned to death (Lev 20:14). If you want to be lent credibility while quoting from the bible, perhaps the book of Leviticus isn't where you should get your inspiration; it seems outdated. I didn't even touch on burning sacrificial animals, or not having any contact with women during their period of "uncleanliness".
  16. I can compare mine to my buddies. He sprayed his with "high temp" spray paint, and I Jet Hot coated mine. His are almost ready to rust through, and mine still look decent. They dont have that sterling finish on them, they faded to the dull grey, but they are NOWHERE close to the way my buddies look. Could also be the quality of the metal, I am using Bassani headers, and they seem to be made of high grade material. Edit: Damn, I can't type.
  17. Yeah, they eat lunch with Bill O'Reilly and Chris Matthews. There are two upstanding citizens, who, BTW, have very critical and open minded views. graemlins/gone.gif

    You need to decide which is more important to you and make a decision based on that. Don't sel out on here because people tell you to. If the job is more important, you may have to sacrifice personal expression. If personal expression is more important, you may have to sacrifice a higher paying job.
  22. This thread is bordering on offensive. Lets keep it sane, and not start saying things that will insult people on the board who are undeserving. That is a good way to lose political posting privelages. And deft., yes, I would do that were I in his situation. I have seen what happens to the hostages, and I would take one out before I got my head cut off.
  23. I am going to a hockey game to watch my friends at Worthington Ice Center off of Wilson bridge road, near 270 and high street. Anyone is welcome to come. My friends are playing an all girl team, and it should be hilarious to watch. Game starts at 7:50.
