My friend spotted this: License plate frame reads: My other ride is a porn star http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s320x320/388718_2658098017839_1417553101_2901857_1116503351_n.jpg

might as well wait until next year, at least it will be a home game

did you notice anymore lag than usual now?

Also have programmable thermostat. Just did some research on the interwebz last week about this. Based on a study, it's a myth that you use more energy heating your house back up after you turn it down during the night(if you do it right). For every degree you turn down for an eight hour stretch, typically takes 1% less energy, so 10 degress equals 10%. During times where the temps are mild (like right now) you won't see that much of a savings, it's when the temps vary greatly from outside to inside is where you see the savings. It's great if you keep the house cool during the day, but most people crank the heat really high once they get home and lose the savings they made during the day. Set it for the temp that you want, and most programmable thermostats are 'smart' thermostats and will turn on whenever they need to in order to be at the temp you desire at that time. For example: If you set it for 68 degress at 6:15am when you wake up then the thermostat will learn over time that it needs to turn on at 6:07am in order to reach 68 degress by 6:15am. If you spend most of your time in one room, you will save a lot more money by using a space heater in that room as opposed to heating the whole house. Also, if you have bedrooms that you rarely go in, shut the vents in those rooms and close the doors. The heat will get pushed to other rooms in the house, and theoretically, heat less of the house. Although, don't close too many vents, as this will create back pressure and could hurt your furnace. Cliffs: If you turn down the heat when you don't need it, you'll save money. But don't overheat the house when you are there, which will negate the savings you made while sleeping or not at home....and use space heater if you mostly use one room at night, this equals big savings.

If it's 'going out' on one side, the other side is probably not far behind, so I would do both if it were me. If you let this go it will also begin to wear your tires since there will be some 'play' in the steering. Typically you will have a bolt and a 'jam nut' that you need to loosen and it will un-thread off the inner tie rod. http://www.300cforums.com/forums/attachments/suspension-handling-modifications/30289d1220305270-outer-tie-rod-failure-what-rim-size-you-running-outer-inner-tie-rod.jpg You will need a tool similar to this to disconnect from the steering arm/spindle. You can rent from this tool from Autozone/Advanced/Etc. http://www.planetisuzoo.com/data/articles/126/tie-rod-remove-hi.jpg You WILL need an alignment immediately following as the nut and jam nut are where the adjustments are made for alignment, so make sure you 'match-mark' the threads when you take the outer tie rod off, so you can get it back to where it was before you took it off. It's definitely something you can do yourself or with a buddy. Good luck!

WTFuck

Have you tried sitting down and having a talk with your friends and telling them they're not in college anymore, and they need to grow up a little? I know it's an uphill battle, but it may be worth a shot for it to be a little more tolerable? If you want to play hard, you've got to work hard too.....

Go into sales.....Salary + commission......basically you eat what you kill, and get out whatever you put in....similar to staring your own shop......

Interesting Letter from a 'Buckeye Fan' to the 'Penn State Fans' http://theschoolphilly.com/2011/11/09/letter-from-an-osu-fan-to-penn-state-fans/ “Dear Penn State Fan/Alumni, You don’t know me. Sure, we may have seen each other once or twice at a road game or a tailgate, but aside from a passing glance, and an occasional hello, we are strangers. Heck, we’re actually more like enemies. After all, I’m a fan of The Ohio State University – tOSU, or O$U as you might call it. Since you guys joined the Big Ten Conference in the early-90s we’ve built a pretty spirited rivalry, with more than its fair share of heroics, heartbreaks, and triumphs. To be sure, we’ve both crossed the line on occasion. Urine balloon barbs and incontinence jabs have clouded the fact that we’re actually not that different, you and I. We’re both proud disciples of two of the most storied programs in all of college football, and although you’d be hard pressed to get a Buckeye fan to say it to your face, we respect the hell out of you and your traditions. I’m writing because I know how you feel right now. The actions of your beloved president, coach, and athletic director have shaken your program to the core and have threatened your own faith in humanity. You’re shocked that someone you idolized could have done something so stupid, so selfish, so infuriatingly contradictory to the values they spent decades promoting. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not comparing what happened in Columbus to what’s alleged to have happened in State College. Only Bob Ryan is stupid enough to draw that parallel. What I am saying is that I know what it feels like to have a personal hero disgraced. To watch someone you admire, who did more good in a week than most of us do in our entire lifetimes get publicly shamed, and forced out under a cover of darkness. To see a legacy irrevocably stained and treasured accomplishments tarnished. To have one person’s mistakes drag your university’s good name through the mud. To be labeled an accomplice to the crime by virtue of your fan allegiances. As I was driving to work this morning, I heard one of your own call in to The Herd and explain that he didn’t know how he was going to unapologetically put on the Blue and White and sing “Fight On, State” this Saturday. He’s not the only one to express that sentiment. Perhaps you’re feeling a little this way. This is what I want to say to you. You are not Joe Paterno. You are not Tim Curley. You are not Gary Schultz. You are not Graham Spanier, and you are sure as hell not Jerry Sandusky. Their alleged sins are not your own. They may be the most recognizable faces of your beloved program, but they are not Penn State. They are not a 156 year old center of higher learning. They are not a century of football tradition. Their flaws cannot eclipse the innumerable scientific, artistic, and humanitarian contributions your university, and its 44,000 students and 570,000 living alumni have made and will continue to make to the world at large. The spirit of a program, of a university, and of a state is so much bigger than any one person. So do yourself a favor, and stop thinking about Joe Paterno. No amount of discussion can change what happened, and his bed is made for better or worse. Recognize that only time can tell how he will be remembered. (For what it’s worth, I hope beyond hope that the facts turn out favorably.) Say a prayer for the children, and on Saturday, put on your Silas Redd jersey, brave the cold, and cheer your ass off for your team. Not because you support the coaches, because you support the men on the field. Not because you endorse the administration, because you believe in the University as a collective whole. Penn State University has always been (and will always be) about one thing and one thing only: making life better. It’s not just a motto, it’s a mission. And you’re still a part of that. Pray for the children. Cheer for the team. And in two weeks, make the drive to Columbus, so you can watch us bury your Big Ten title aspirations in person. Sincerely, A Buckeye Fan”

Didn't say anything....he let his driving do the talking..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tVWHGTA2xY

Do you live in a cave? I can't stand NASCAR and even I know what happened http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tVWHGTA2xY http://aol.sportingnews.com/nascar/story/2011-11-07/kyle-busch-fined-placed-on-probation-by-nascar http://www.kylebusch.com/news/entry.php?nid=336

I turn right next to this McDonald's every time I go to work and i eat here sometimes. That shit is scary. I actually sent this link to my HR rep to see if she wanted to let my company know about it. We are literally 1 mile from this McDonalds. Mother fuckers need a beat down!
