Or 15 beers real fast and 6 hours of passed outedness

And it is clean instead of all cluttered. Even though I am a Bm'er guy, I prefer Dave's install. It looks like less work, but often less is more and cleaner is better. Plus you gotta love the gear.

Wow, have the past 4 hours been frustrating. I am putting a fresh HD in my pc and reinstalling Microsuck Wincrap XP. My hardware is newer than the CD(thank D**l for including it with my laptop), which caused it to not work. I finally had to completely dumb down everything in my frickin' bios to get it to load. Complete waste of 4 hours, but learning process. Superhyped bios settings don't mix with XP. Booo!

I hope she is okay

how's it goin'...

That has got to make your trunk hump.

Sweet!!

Errr, you got that thing Wally-rigged eh? Best part is it looks wose than a BB/CC install, but I am sure that it sounds thousands of times better. Would be easy to dress up though.

Oh, just to put some space in this isn't the punchline keep going

I would say don't go overboard tonight, but bring up the differences later. If you don't it will go further down that road. Makes me think of a joke. Hard to tell on the net, so here goes: How do you make a really bad date turn into a good date?

My whole house smells like f'glass again, I wish I had a disconnected garage somedays.

Aargh, stupid delay on the server doubled me up...

WTF?? Canadians set off fireworks for Halloween? If you were in Windsor, next to Detroit I would understand as it is close to hell night, but sh*t you are in BC that BS shouldn't happen there. Sorry to hear about your cat.

Uh, those are caddies not Honda's

Enjoy!

If you have a wirebrush for your drill remove the rust. Then you put a product like Tirefryr recommended: I use Extend. After you grind off the rust and Extend it tape off the area with the BLUE "easy remove" masking tape. You will also need to prime before painting, being you will have some grill brush marks use a "building up" primer that has a lot of extra body for filling grooves. Sand this smooth with 400 working your way to 1200 grit paper. Then go ahead and shoot the paint from the can (practive on a piece of cardboard first--start the spray before it hits the board and go past it). NOTE: Tape off extra so you can "overspray" onto it. To take off the ridge of paint from the tape, use 1000/1200 grit sandpaper with a dry thick sponge between your fingers and the paper (to prevent grooving). Then I would shoot any clear that you can find cheap in a can over the whole area. If you spray the clear well all you will really need to do is buff the area afterwards and you should be set.

Allright, I need a break from working on my kick panels so I thought I would get to thinking about my next project. And being completely different I thought this might be fun. I have until spring to help my frugal friend put a stereo in his boat (21' Chris Craft). He already has a HU and a older fosgate amp 50x4. I have a pair of JL 10w4-0 subs that I will let him use for a reasonable price. The boat is used exclusively on Lake Minnetonka, most of the time the boat is tied to a line of other boats in the 20-30' range. Having the stereo that can be heard well behind the boat and sideways accross other boats allows you to be the one to choose the music--a must if I am going to go out with him. I want to propose two systems to him: 1) An extreme low cost--aka no new amp 2) A rational step up--another amplifier To maximize dispersion and volume--more important then either SQ or SPL: Pick a real high sensitivity horn from PE -- power off his hu with a passive crossover Run a pair (4 total) of midranges off each front channel of the amp at a 2 ohm load Run the 2x10" subs off the rear half of the amplifier. --For mounting I would build a ported enclosure for the mid/horn combo and make them dual mountable; one mount for inside the hull of the boat and another for mounting up higher for "parked" listening while you are not moving or outside the boat. The subs will be in the hull. So the questions are: Do you like my idea for the first option, any driver recommendations, and what would you do to add to the system for option 2.

How about this for a costume (realizing I live in MN) My wife is going with me as a prostitute and I am going to paint my skin black and go as Fred Smoot the cornerback for the Vikings who paid for the whole loveboat rental at Al & Alma's.

Is there a make your own post? I am going to need some in a week or so, and would prefer the DIY direction.

3 wire: usually red, blue, yel. R&B are the drive, yellow is for sensing the rpm of the fan. Sometimes the sense is two wires, not normally R&B. It "shouldn't" hurt to just try connecting it up to your car battery and seeing which two make it spin (and check for the right way--put a wet finger or a light rag in front to judge the moving air if it isn't obvious)
