  1. Meijer has some kits that work if you are just looking for the basics. They are cheaper than piecing your own together.
  2. wait until your warranty is up... you will need it
  3. I saw the Airbus A380 last time I flew, the thing is huge. It doesnt seem like it could make it off the ground when full of 500 passengers and luggage.
  4. mine took a shit about three weeks ago. It is still under warranty, but they have to send a box to return the xbox in. (stupid). I have had to call twice now and am still waiting on my return box. good luck.
  5. I went to home depot and bought white magnetic vent covers. One sheet is good for a number, then one for your letters. Cost about $10. (print out your numbers/letters from word to use as templates if you want)
  6. I actually pieced one together almost exactly like that. I had the hose and plug adapter from my compression tester, then just stole the regulator and gauge from my compressor. Only had to get a couple adapters from the hardware store. If you are looking for numbers to the exact %, you may be better off buying one (especially if you have to buy all the stuff anyway). If you just want to see how fast you are losing pressure and where then this would suffice.
  7. I Agree with the others, they will probably fog up/leak moisture (nothing a bit of silicone wont fix), the optics will be nowhere near as nice as OEM using HID (glare for others and less light on road), fitment may be an issue, and Halo rings belong on BMWs. Get an OEM light from a junkyard, http://www.car-part.com. Probably cheaper too.
  8. There's a thought, if there is absolutely nothing to download then no one will get in trouble. Way to let the RIAA win.
  9. You can go get a nice hardtail trek with disc brakes brand new for $350. You are much better off with that bike than a cheap mongoose. Better build quality, components, warranty, and better re-sale value. Or you could try to get a used one, there are a lot of people who buy nice new bikes just to never use them. What is this 20 miles? dirt? pavement? Occasional recreation you could get away with a wally world special, but if this is your mode of transportation then I would get something worthy.
  10. The woman had it on that channel to watch ER (I think?) and we ended up watching this instead. I thought it was a damn good show, I will definitely watch the next episode. I was already in the mood from watching The Departed last weekend too.
  11. I know a couple people who went to AZ to MMI. They both know their stuff about bikes now, one does bike wrenching on the side and one is a full-time bike mechanic, making average pay. I wouldnt go with the intention of scoring a big gig like on Yamaha's superbike pit crew or anything, but if your goal is just to get a decent job wrenching on bikes (at least to start), then go for it.
  12. Quality does house window tinting too, so I dont see why they wouldnt come to tint a car, give them a call!
  13. that was pretty good, but NOTHING beats that ebay ad from a couple years back where (supposedly) this guy was selling all his ex's beanie babies... anyone have that page saved by chance?
  14. Someone fairly local has one, it might be greg nelson.
  15. turbotax.com I did mine and have the cash already. Its fairly idiot proof. There are supposedly some free sites linked from irs.gov, but I didnt feel comfortable using them.
  16. If you are going with tubes, have an extra on hand. It sucks to think you are all finished and have the tire mounted on the bike only to find it is losing air because you pinched the tube. It sucks worse if you have to venture back out for a replacement tube.
  17. no, retard! I guess you checked all those spun out FWD vehicles and confirmed they all had a nice set of Blizzaks? You drive a work van that has steel racks (I am guessing) and loaded with a shitload of equipment. What do you think it weighs? You also stated you used AWD driving around today. Its no secret those two vehicles should do fairly well on slick roads. A large part of the drivers out there have light economy cars with any assortment of worn/appropriate tires. Its no surprise you saw what you did, but you sure showed them, idiots.
  18. I need to have some excess tissue in my throat removed (uvulva?) at some point and was thinking about doing the septum at the same time since it is deviated and my sinuses dont drain properly, but your posting is making me re-consider.
  19. I use Open DNS for my DNS servers, I dont get that re-direct.
