I'm back and forth a couple times a year to visit

That's pretty cool, ever spend time in IF?

No, only for gas and food, on my way through so far

I'm really thinking these rims on my truck. 18" OEM Titan rims I can get them for $350 with 50% tread tires (though there not the size I want) But I could at least run the tread off them.... or burn it off

They're something simple, cheap, and would allow me to run bigger brakes. I dunno if they may look out of place on my light colored truck

Not bad looking

And for all the people that voted for Obama because "he is going to bring change"

I thought that was a given since he was running as a Democrat

Party affiliation isn't what it used to be. The stereotypes for the two big parties don't always apply. But the Democrats knew what they were doing. Put in a black man and say he'll change everything from what Bush is doing. That's all he would have had to say. He'd get 15% of the vote just from that from all the ignorant people who knew nothing about either candidate but still had to make sure to vote, plus the 45% that the Democratic party would have gotten anyway.

I think the "just go vote" mentality that all the national groups, celebrities, sports stars, etc. are telling people is misguiding. They need to change it to "Go learn about the candidates so that your vote is not in ignorance." Too many people these days vote solely on how charismatic a candidate is. Politics are about POLICIES, not smooth talking you at a cocktail party.

I think that the 200+ year old terms, democrat and republican, need to be rethought.

FYI, the "Republican" party had only been around for ~140 years.

but yes, they are getting quite stale.

Southern slave owners were only around 140 years ago? Are you sure about that

The actual party names of democrat and republican have only been around about that long. Before, they were known by different names. Like the wigs, and........I forget.

Actually not old enough yet, you will have to wait for the next election.

don't you have to be 40 to be Pres?

IIRC 35, so I didn't make the cut this year. And HEY ASSHOLE, I won't be 40 in 4 years.

[///M5 2,833]

I hate mornings

[topgun 262]

Yep its 35.

*laughs at the 40 comment*

[topgun 262]

I don't necessarily hate mornings, just waking up.

[///M5 2,833]

I suppose close though. Shit time flies.

[MKader17 332]

and dont tell anybody...

That's what I was going to say

Quick Photoshop....

You stole the rims off my truck *laughs*

You drive a Titan?

[JimJ 11]

~3 days since I've had any sodas...just water, milk, OJ...

Don't think I can go completely cold turkey, but it's a lot better than where I was...

Just FYI, the 240gb 1.8" drive (ie Ipod size) that I referenced here about 6 months ago is about to be released.

[ANeonRider 3]

Just bought a 1.5TB Seagate for the media tank.

I really need to do that, almost out of space here

Hopefully next spring...

[///M5 2,833]

They are cheap now. By early 2011 that drive will hold 4.5Tb if not more.

[ANeonRider 3]

Paid $221 shipped, but I'm Canadian, so I have to pay more by default it seems.

Wow, didn't realize how fast they are advancing HD technology...

[topgun 262]

Ahh, just to think, our first family computer had a turbo button that switched from 100mHz to 16mHz, running on a modified Windows 3.1 so you had switchable user desktops (different icons for different people), and 2gig of HD space?

[Godsmack 361]

I need more time in the day.............These days time is moving too fucking quick

I remember the first time I saw Windows 3.1 on a color screen...the first time I saw Windows, my dad had an IBM Thinkpad with a monochrome screen, the only thing I had used before was DOS on a PC Jr...

And now kids are getting cell phones in elementary school
