  1. yeah but he cheats at cards, and he's a lousy drunk.
  2. well i was looking at a great deal of a Hard Drive on the net which i found thanks to MistaMatt posting it here and thought that it would be great if we had a thread were we could post any great deals that we found on the net. it's just another way to share with our little community. i'll go look for past ones and post them when i get a chance. it would be really nice if a mod could sticky this thread since i'm pretty sure we'll get some good regular use out of it.
  3. wow thanks matt. that's a great find. i don't need one right now but boy if i did. you know what you just gave an idea for a great thread. "Deals on the Net"
  4. rules smulls. BLAAAAAH! when i pay for it i want to use it. yes everyone we need to start a fund for all those starving artist that need our help. how can we expect them to survive on just caviar and Champaign and bare riding around in their Bentleys. do you remember when musicians just wanted the enjoyment of making people feel better about their lives. HA! then the Execs took over and now it's nothing more than a business if factory bands and bling bling hip hop. besides far to many of them don't actually do anything to deserve what they get. don't get me wrong there's real hardworking talen
  5. well now that the ex is all packed and on her way back to california and out of my hair for good i can get back to work. anyways as i was going to say before the biggest and best tip yet is for when your buying a new car or truck. on most non US vehicles there isn't that many options available but on US vehicles it's a whole other story. in i think we get way too many options. so take advantage of it and order a vehicle built for your exact purpose. for example one of my fathers friends has a about 98 Ford Expedition or so and he drives cross country towing his race car. so when he bought it
  6. hello hello! my sweaty friends i just got back from grocery run and i thought up a few more during the ride. i thought up some more freebies. well free if you can do the work yourself. first off is that it accured to me as i tried to remember what else i've done to my bronco over the years. i added an aftermarket electronic overdrive, which i've already said that if you don't have over drive on an automatic trany then add one. it's adjustable! not all of them but the one that i got i picked just for that reason. i wanted to tell it to shift into overdrive sooner than normal. and WALA! a l

  8. i'mmmm baaaack! and i've got more tips too. if your still using a mechanical fuel pump you can disconnect it and install an electric fuel pump. it's more efficient and reliable. in the winter time the freezing cold robs you of your gas mileage. you can install what's called a block heater. it's like a hot pan for your car. most of them are just an electric heater block with magnets that goes on your oil pan. heating up your oil making the engine start way easier and get right to operating temperature faster. even new cars can benefit greatly from this. one that i thought of last night is f
  9. The Net ------ what i call the internet
  10. alright i've trying to avoid this but i guess it's time. here's some ideas and tips for better gas mileage that will cost you for now but will save in the end. a better flowing exhaust is does more that just make it sound better. for example shorty headers to larger pipes and instead of running both headers to a Y pipe to your Cat and mufflers to the exhaust tip. run what's called dual exhaust. instead you run the pipes straight back after the headers and use a set on each pipe. it cost more but it allows the engine to push out twice the air in the same amount of time. if you've still got a
  11. don't worry i didn't go far. as always i've just been real busy. had a full two days of buying stuff at an auction, graphics project for someone on this forum, new sig project for someone on another forum, painting the interior for the bronco, writing down ideas for my two books in between things, ect. ect. ect. besides no interstellar travel for me right now, they took my galactic license away. who knew that there was a stop sign on the second ring of saturn. that was sooooo delicious thesidekickcat.! is there any more? it was so good that it makes my toung droop out for more like this
  12. you already know this but just in case others didn't catch it. what i meant by quality is the rate of defects, bugs, ect. not just the quality of materials. i've have people grip about that before. i'm personally still not happy about the cheap attempt at the liquid cooling system they designed for the G5s. IBM couldn't get the specs on the processors so they just slapped that cooling system on it and i've seen quite a few problems with just those. it was just so that they could hold off consumers a little longer. i see what you mean about the NetBurst. you right they are a very complimentat
  13. your not in trouble, you didn't offend anyone and as far as confusing and sidetracking the thread i'm the culprit as usual. don't worry about it. besides when our alien masters arrive your on my safe list you too Blim

  16. OMG what happened to apple. the more i looked the more i didn't like. apple hardware used to be so different. what in the world happened. i spent a few hours looking stuff up and just didn't like what i saw. i knew that they were playing around with architecture and then there was that whole velocity engine fiasco but you might as well just call it a PAC instead of a Mac. one thing that has always disturbed me when they went to the G5 line is the huge increase of trouble shooting on apples board. these new computers aren't MACs they're just high end PCs. practically the only things left that s
  17. i really have to admit that i haven't kept track of apples hardware sine the good old G4s. is the article just totally wrong by the G5s and other new systems? as afar as cache sizes i was referring to the old G4s and G3s. i'm looking up specs for the first gen G5s and P4s to the current right now. i know i've been lazy the last 3 years. here's article that answered some of my question of what apple was doing. http://ptech.wsj.com/archive/ptech-20050609.html right now i'm looking at several bench marks of the current G5 and P4. it seems to be a total flip flop. it's getting harder to get hon
  18. (CNN theme music) this is your action news with macmarauder (CNN theme music) in earlier news, Bush Claimed that he was abducted from his royal alien parents when he was an infant and brought to earth. he proclaimed that he would like to renounce his president thingy and return home in the mother ship to claim his throne and fulfill his destiny buy feeding the starving aliens of Narlak Prime just a few minutes ago the alien mother ship sent a reply to Bushes request to which they denied all claims to Bushes alien heritage and said "not if you paid us in McDonalds Bucks" (CNN theme music)
