  1. Couldn't have said it better myself.
  2. We have a family friend who makes most of his money under the table. Supports 2 kids and a non-working (read:worthless) girlfriend and he got back 7k last year. Fucking awesome huh?
  3. Just more elitest geek talk. Nothing to see here, move along folks.
  4. HA I wish, they would go under in a matter of weeks. Just because your vegetarian doesnt neccessarily mean your healthy either. I see your point but 48% of NYC residents are obese. At least their taking steps to stop it. What has Cbus done since we're considered the 7th fattest city in the nation? I hear it all the time at work form the 'weight watcher klan'. They compare their points and say things like "oh I had the fried chicken sandwich instead of the cheese whopper today for lunch" like its any better. Of course its the consumer's fault but the government cant come down on the consumer so they pick on the next best thing.
  5. http://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/diet.fitness/01/22/calories.menus/index.html I think Columbus and the central Ohio communities should adopt this idea. It would give people an idea of just what their consuming and how bad it really is.
  6. Just to clarify, you have a 14b on there now that the 'flapper door' is welded shut correct? Is the HKS WG off of the exhaust manifold? If this is your daily your best bet would be to just throw on a stock 14b turbo. Im sure you can find a used 14b from someone for cheap though. Take off the HKS wastegate, sell it and buy a 14b with the money. Your not going to get crazy power out of a 14b but they are proven performers should be more than enough for a daily driver.
  7. Last time I was at World Gym they are having an auction to get rid of some of their older equipment. Include's weight machines and cardio equipment. I wouldn't pick up any of the cardio stuff but as long as the weight machines are high quality I dont see why they wouldn't still be good. This was the Powell location is that matters any. I can ask when Im there later tonight if they have a list of stuff they're getting rid of.
  8. Not saying your wrong but how do you know?
  9. Ive gotta try this. I always shaved before a shower to rinse away any excess shaving gel.
  10. I really didnt think it was all that bad but then again I knew what to expect too. I knew they weren't going to give us any produced scene's on a sound stage and it was all gonna be shaky first person shot's throught the whole move. (godzilla meets blair witch = Cloverfield) What I would've liked was some sort of closure shot at the end. You know some D.O.D. conference room in Washington with a bunch of generals and scientist's and shit sitting around talking about it. At least it would've opened the door for a sequel, which Im almost positive there will be. EDIT: one last thing I actually did like about the movie. They did give you a few good shots of the monster and what it looked like. It wasn't like it was a mystery the whole movie.
  11. I would normally suggest something like this but when someone is chemically and mentally addicted to something as strong as heroin withdraw can be fatal. Im glad your mom made it out, but he could try this route and just have a nurse on hand in case things take a turn for the worse? At the very least she'll be able to let you know when you need to take him to the ER if it gets that bad. Try calling around to several clinics (like Maryhaven) and seeing if they will at least give you some advice for quitting cold turkey like that? They are there to help, so its worth a try. Goodluck.
  12. Ahhh I see. Strange thing is, one weekend I can drink shots of patron and bacardi and diet all night, the next I'll sit around playing drinking games with a case of stone's. Of course the hangover from beer is always worse. Yes, yes you can. I can't stand that stuff. Its the one liquer that I really really dislike. the only time i ever drink it is if its on special and really cheap. Even then I'll have it in a red-headed slut so that cough syrup taste is at least diluted a bit with cran.
  13. Drink top shelf stuff and you'll never look back. Well vodka always gives me the worst hangovers and taste's the worse too. At a bar buying top shelf vodka isnt too expensive but if your buying a bottle at a store it is. Get what you pay for I guess.
  14. So you've tried the regular top shelf stuff like Goose, Ketel One, Belvedeere etc...? My personal favorite is Vanilla Stoli with 180 Orange energy drink (http://www.180.com). Mixed in a tall glass. It tastes just like Orange/vanilla crush and goes down real easy. Only downside is there's alot of sugar in 180 so personally I can only drink 2 cans before getting a headache from it. But 2 of these plus a few shots of Patron and I dont need anything more. You can also mix 180 with Orange Stolie with a shot of OJ and have a shot called an "orange peel", or subsitute 180 for redbull and have an "orange bomb". I've only been to 3 bars that carry 180 so its semi-hard to find. As far as rum, I like my Captain or Bacardi mixed with diet coke. But other than that Im not a huge rum fan.

    Supra's

    I've heard the aftermarket for Supra's is VERY expensive. Hell even OEM parts are expensive and hard to come by. While there are some expensive aftermarket parts for C5's, it is extensive and there are many companies out there that support the platform. I would personally go for the C5. I still like their looks (minus the pop-ups) but hell if you've got the money for a supra and you've had your eye on one. Go for it.
  16. Search google for white supremesist anti-government sects/religions. Im sure there are far more examples out there somewhere. And plenty of stand-off's that may/may not have ended like the one in Waco, Texas. In no way, shape or form am I saying this is right. Im simply saying there are extreme's on both ends of the spectrum. I've known good people, upstanding citizen's that made it through all sorts of adversion to come here and make a better life for themselves and their families. They happen to be Muslim. You cant type cast a whole religion.
  17. I was wondering when someone was going to say something. I was going to post it earlier but didnt have time. I'll never claim to be an expert when it comes to economics, hell not even a novice at that. But this just doesnt sound like a smart move for the country. If we're already in trillion's of dollars in debt, how is giving us money to spend going to help anything? I understand its to stimulate the economy, "give joe blow a check for $800 and he goes out and buys a tv, or a satallite radio, or something stupid like that". But what happens afterwards? Now every household in america that has a combined income of UNDER 100k has a shiny new toy, great. Awesome. Now what? Maybe I'll take it and buy a gun, so when we hit the depression I can defend my house from being looted of all its food and supplies. Sounds like a plan.
  18. I have to agree with this. Muslim Extremists are to Muslims what the Branch Dividians are to Christianity. There are extreme's in all cases.
  19. WHAT THE FUCK?!?!? Did everyone else miss this??? Back to topic. Ive kicked around this idea for the past few years. But I was always afraid of not having any sort of safety net. My family and I are VERY close, my brother is one of my best friends. I have some extended family down there that Im fairly close with but no one I could really live with. And without any sort of job or anything lined up I would just be setting myself up for failure. I have heard one of the cheapest places from a cost of living standpoint is Las Vegas, go figure right? But really, if you stay out of the casino's and off the blow its gotta be fun.
  20. The collar is tight on this one. Poor guy.
  21. Shit... Im still confused.
  22. We went there when we went slum bar hopping. For 50$ in 1's your treated like a king Then again, its a slum bar so dont expect the hottest women in the world.
