i have some old junk for my mustang that i need to clear out. 1) i will sell the t-5 i offered before, just give me your best offer http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35137 2) i also have the bell housing for the t5 in good shape $75 or best offer, i have no idea how much to ask for this 3) stock air box with snorkel (mass air elbow not included)--free 4) two 15" turbine wheels, in decent shape--$30 for both 5) smog pump--free 6) stock manifolds-free 7) BBK offroad h-pipe for shorty headers--when i yanked it off to put longtubes on, it leaked at the collectors--it needs to be taken to a muffler shop and have the socket joint where the h-pipe meets the headers re-rolled. i would think any competent muffler shop could do this cheap--$30

$7k is cheap by today's standards. just remember, your 'wife to be' has probably looked forward to this day since she was very young. you may see it as just one day, but keep her in mind.

i recommend Sandals Grande at St. lucia. its all inclusive, not too expensive, and a great place for couples. the wife and i have been on several all-inclusives--barbados, jamaica, st. lucia, and we love them. the food in st. lucia was fantastic, as was the alcohol--its not top shelf (grey goose, etc.) but it is very good (absolut, J.D., etc.). there are plenty of free activities (snorkling, hoby cats, windsurfing), and even more activities that are very affordable. http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/4904/p4220007pm2.jpg http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/5350/p4240035po2.jpg

brian tuned my '04.

the pain you are experiencing is likely from the fluid on your knee, and the bone bruise. i ligament sprain hurts much more than a complete tear. which ortho dr. did you see, if you don't mind my asking??

H&R race springs without the isolators will take it low.

guys, i have a used t5 that's been sitting in my basement for the past 6 years when i took it out of my '87 mustang GT to swap in the tremec, it had issues with the 1-2 syncro. the car would grind the gears when shifted quickly between 1st and 2nd when the car was cold. once the car warmed up, everything was fine. the tranny had 90k miles on it when removed. if i were puting it in my car i would have it rebuilt, but it was fully driveable when removed, just had the 1-2 syncro issue. i have no idea what to sell it for, so i'm going to just say $150 obo i have the bellhousing sitting somewhere in my basement, i just have to find it.

SOLD. thanks for looking guys

you can buy it now. if you look at the other kegerators on craigslist, they are more expensive and use shittier friges. my buddy's kit is the same that i have. it was purchased from beveragefactory.com for $120, and the co2 tank was $45

hey guys, one of my buddies at work is selling his kegerator, and i told him i'd throw it up on this forum, since i know a lot of people here like to drink. i've been to his house many times to hang out, and this thing is in pretty good shape http://columbus.craigslist.org/spo/292200914.html

that car is beautiful, i love that color blue. too bad i need something bigger

those look about 1000 times better than my old turbines

this is also true. the rash stays on one side of the body, and follows a specific dermatome or two. it can even appear on your face. it can be quite painful, and sometimes difficult to diagnose because you can get the nerve pain long before the characteristic unilateral rash. stress is one thing that can bring it on.

yes, that is true. but if you've already had chicken pox, you've got nothing to worry about----the virus is already in your body. it is not an exact science as to why some people get shingles and others don't, but people who have a weaker immune system (the elderly, transplant and AIDS patients, infants, people with chronic diseases, etc.) are more susceptible to having the virus come out of its dormant state, or to catching the virus again from an infected subject. if your father has lesions that are crusty and draining, i'd have him keep those areas covered (hard to do, if its his face), and avoid touching them. if your father is close to recovering, you're even less likely to have a problem. its been a little while since i was responsible for knowing a ton about shingles, but that is what i remember off hand--you should not worry. and you should also not be 'touchy' with your dad.

exactly correct people who commonly get shingles have something wrong with their immune system. its commonly seen in HIV/AIDS patients, and organ transplant patients who are on tons of anti-rejection meds. you shouldn't worry about contracting shingles, its not nearly as communicable as chicken pox is. unless the person has actively draining lesions that you plan on massaging, i wouldn't get too concerned.

i knew you'd chime in. if you've truly read my other posts, it should be obvious where my degree lead me. where's yours leading you???

i have a degree in chemistry. i will probably be of no help unfortunately as i'm not a chemist. it sounds like an interesting business you're starting, i'm sure there are tons and tons of old x-rays being discarded as people die off. many places are transferring to computer x-ray systems, and no longer make many "real x-rays" anymore. hell, i didn't even know x-ray films had silver in them, and i should know that. good luck.

genius........at least you've got a sense of humor. enjoy college, seriously, live it up--i did. when you get out in the real world you'll realize you don't know shit, and that's when the real learning begins. i'm aware the two schools are rivals, but that doesn't mean they are equals. but college is what you make of it--i went to grad school with plenty of people from ivy league schools who were far less prepared to succeed.

you read all of my posts??? wow, i'm honored. there IS no rivalry between the two schools, one is clearly better. i can't speak for people who go there now (no, i don't pop my collar, but the wife did buy me a pink shirt), but put it this way: all four of my cousins graduated from OU with degrees, and both of my siblings went to miami (its a true story). the cousins are all looking for jobs to pay them $40k and are having very little luck--i feel bad for them--not that money is everything. in your profile, it says you're only 19, so get your degree, and $40k/yr. job before you rule out the possibility of a mcdonalds career. now lets see some pics damnit.

then you missed out on a great time. by the way, why would you apply there if you knew everyone was a fuck??---if i thought everyone at a particular school was a fuck, i wouldn't apply there, that sounds pretty dumb--but not unexpected, i guess. i'll have a big mac value meal, by the way--and don't short change me on fries this time damnit.

sounds like you had a fracture into the joint which should have been operated on. unless you're a child (their bones remodel like crazy), it is unlikely that the callus will remodel enough for you to gain all of your motion back. it may remodel slightly, but not significantly. if you fix a broken bone together with rigid fixation, you will not get callus formation--the crack will fill in with healing bone, and nothing more (no bump)

this has not been my experience. if you don't have your motion back after 6 months (give or take), you will usually not get it back without a manipulation. the bone growth around the fracture is called callus, its the body's normal response to a fracture (break). not everyone needs physical therapy. someone with an uneventful boxer's fracture that is put in a splint for 3 weeks will not usually need therapy. but someone who broke their thumb 3 months ago and has been immobilized all that time and also had surgery WILL usually need physical therapy. i would expect them to be stiff as shit, and have pain with movement of the thumb--the exact situation the original poster is describing. if you put a completely uninjured hand or wrist in a cast for 2 months, you'd be stiff as hell, and have pain with motion. use it or lose it, when it comes to joint motion.

no problem. i realize the surgery and medical bills can add up, but don't short change things at this time since you've already invested plenty of time and money into getting a good result. if you weren't too concerned about function, you could have had your thumb fused and been on with your life a while ago. many people assume that once the surgery is over, they can rehab on their own--but that is often not the case. hand therapists can make protective splints, they know what your motion should be at each stage of the rehab/healing process, they can notify your surgeon if things are going too slow, they also have whirlpool therapy (i know it sounds weird, but it can be an absolute KEY to hand rehab), and they can motivate you in ways that you may not be able to do on your own. at the very least, go to a few therapy visits, learn the exercises, and do them at home religously. good luck, let me know if you need any more info kirk

my advice IS experienced, trust me. do formal therapy--they will push you and make sure you make the necessary functional gains. many times, doing the surgery is the easiest part of the process. post-operative rehab is what makes the surgery a success or a failure.
