    Holy fuck... I got sexyness today. #154. . real vs clone. The real are engraved, on the right. The switch is totally different and magnetic. The top cap floats on the real, so any atomizer is just a screw on and go. The real trigger travels ~1mm. It hits like a fuckin hammer.

    They are slotted and drilled. The tech said on the trucks it is what he'd recommend for the street. Never seen a set crack and they deal with all the weight and associated heat better. You're not dragging or autocrossing. No issues with the brakes the way you will drive it, as I promise you, you don't drive it that hard, no matter what you might think. They may be noisy, but that is the price you pay for slotted. If you are AXing without DOT4 you deserve to boil and lock up. 4 piston aluminum Corvette calipers of the 90s taught everyone that. Wife just dropped it off with me on the wY home saying it was shaking so bad she was afraid to drive it. Fuck you Chevy. Not common. What year and mileage?

    I've paid $75 for a shot, but generally I like mid level drinks for the money. $10 for a good beer or shot is acceptable. I can get Sexual Chocolate for $10 a glass, Choklate, Creme Brulee, or Mokah for $6.50, and most other higher end micro beers for $6-8. Generally I see Double Oaked or entry level Pappy for $7-10. 23 year Pappy is $50-75 a shot, but extremely hard to find and rare. If you find it, spend the money for a shot. Fucking amazing, but enjoy it because IMO it is really only worth having a few times in your life. It is just too high IMO. You can find 12 and 18 year Pappy for ~$12-25 a shot, and 10 year for $7-10. Granted, all the drinks listed are limited run, and generally not in most joints, but they should be "top shelf" in most bars. Covers vary by locale. I tend to stick to college bars and eateries for good micro beers, with no cover to speak of. My favorite local joints for beer are the Mellow Mushroom and Sticks and Stones. The high end liquors (sorry, I really only drink whiskey/bourbon) are generally best found in high end restaurants or top shelf specialty bars. In the bars, covers will be high. In a food joint, food will be pretty pricey.

    I totally agree. I started with the Mokah because you mentioned the bitterness. I figured I'd start with the one I may not like as much. I feel the bitterness but in no way is it over bearing. Hell its not more bitter than a Guinness Stout. What it is is an awesome mix of chocolate and coffee taste in a beer. I can't put it in to words like Sandt (sorry forgot the name) but man it has some great flavor, especially if you like stout beers. For anyone looking to drink cheap, based on alcohol content its cheaper than buying a 6 pack of Bud Lights or some other light beer. Glad you like it. I am interested in your take on the Choklat when you try it. I have yet to be disappointed in their stouts.

    I always grab up Rick Steve's and Fodors. For the most part I prefer Fodors for maps and attractions, but Rick Steves for out of the way places. For places to stay, I prefer flats or apartments in Rome, check out http://www.romanreference.com/ For a cab from the airport into the city, check out romecabs.com

    I fly Delta and Al Italia when going to Italy. I've flown Lufthansa, but wound up with a nasty delay in Switzerland.

    It's MTD built junk. Mid level and better Cub Cadet is good stuff, but anything MTD is just a throw away mower. I suggest you spend a bit of money, as it can last a lifetime. My mower is 30 years old, and has never had and major work on it. It wasn't cheap, but it is extremely well optioned and well built. FWIW it is a Wheelhorse Workhorse, one of the first true hydrostatic set ups.

    Mokah is an excellent high gravity stout by STB. It is a chocolate coffee stout. It is a very bitter brew, but excellent if you like coffee stouts. They also make 2X Stout, which is a kick ass milk stout. It is, IMO everything a milk stout should be. Medium body, creamy, rich, and a moderately bitter brew. I always have a 6 pack of this in my fridge! Choklat fuckin rocks, but it is out of season, so I doubt you will find it. The Blackwater series is a seasonal high gravity stout series comprised of Warlok in the late fall, Choklat in the early winter, Creme Brulee in the late winter, and Mokah in the early spring. It is a fantastic series of HG stouts.

    That sucks bad. Reactions to meds can be extremely dangerous.

    I know, but the runner looks good with a mild lift. All I would need to do is use FJ rear springs and adjust the bilsteins in the front to the same lift height and then have an alignment done. We do a lot of lifts. The Land Cruiser springs will work for the rears, and adjusting the shocks will not lift the vehicle. You should do a spindle set in the front. My boss is getting ready to do 2 inches on his 2000 4 Runner with 33s, so I can get you his input on it. He is looking at ~$400 in parts.

    Good looking kit. Dropped spindles is the best way to go. Maintains linkage geometry. Progressive coils are a must! Eurothane may be a bit noisy and stiff, but will last forever.
