Still planning on getting it in this summer?

yep, but it might be in front of the 3 speed lol

Hey, if it works...

[bassahaulic 155]

That is no joke.

But what is a joke is alot of things in society today............like our PUBLIC education system

Fixed that for you.

I thought the public was obvious, as private institutions can't technically be called "ours"

Actually its the education system as a whole. As the son of a teacher in the public school system, its not their fault. Its these god forsaken kids, their shit head 'do whatever you want to do' parents, and naturally the govenment and their requirements. Rather than teach for the 'real world' and teaching children as they should, they teach for a test. Its horrible how they have to do this dance around bullshit in order to make sure the kids can pass. God forbid a kid not learn and fail the test, and get held back or don't graduate...........Whiney ass bullshit.

As am I, and you are correct. Teachers would LOVE to teach their way, which for some is MUCH better then the way the School Board says they should. But that also being said, some teachers should NOT be teachers.

And the most annoying thing that I see/hear about are the parents of kids. They are to uptight about everything and are WAY to quick to blame the teachers for their child doing poorly in school when it is really their kids fault.

Specs? What's the CR on that thing?

the cam is from a 98-00 F-body LS1, which is 202/210 with 0.496"/0.496" 116LSA

the stock truck cam is 190/191 with 0.466"/0.457" 114LSA so the new one should be a nice improvement

CR is 9.5:1

I believe it'll work as long as I'm super careful with the throttle

[///M5 2,833]

"careful" good luck with that

[Duran 387]

anybody else seen the commercial for the samsung LCD Tv that thing looks friecken sweet!

The one that's only 1.5" thick? We have some at Sears.

You work at Sears?

Sears and Kmart.

What do you do? I'm a lawn and garden salesman.

How do you sell lawns? I suppose they are all custom ordered to fit around each house's particular dimensions?

Sure do

Hmm that's interesting. I would like to see the test results on the "tree".

Can't wait for the semester to end so I can start making my car quieter...

Sean, what do you think about using polyfill instead of thinsulate in the structural cavities for dealing with airborne noise ? Like you used in the truck.

It appears to have the same fiber structure.

I can't find thinsulate over here. Haven't tried to import it by myself though.

x2. I always had great teachers in my public schools. From what I've seen, it's up to the student's attitude a lot more. and the wienie-producing regulations.

Read an article about that about a month ago. Crazy.

OMGLOL

the Daily Show just did a bit on ASU cause of Obama speaking here tomorrow

could not have portrayed it more accurately....

I saw that and I never really watch TV much less that show. WOW. I was giddy.

I loath socialism.

And if you can't find something searching it is because of others like you that make stupid fucking threads instead of searching in the first place.

Believe me if I owned the forum I'd ban all fuckers that do that instantly.

Once again, procrastination rears its head to bite me in the ass.

You would think I'd have learned by now.

[dem beats 1,223]

Some people don't like me which I am okay with, in particular since I don't like most people. I truly wish we had more ways of natural selection left, the world is backwards now. People who should have kids don't, people who shouldn't have 20. Obviously this is somewhat of a backwards evolution and I am scared of the end result.

I'm hesitant to have kids because I'm responsible. And every day I think about the fact that people with good sense are breeded out by people with no brains.

I recently changed my last name too, and I am really the last male under my grandfather. Really when I die, if I don't have any kids, the line is over for his line. It sucks too because he is a great man.

I believe there are barely any or no requirements to be on the State board of Education.

Get yourself on the ballot...

Chairman of the board is appointed by the Governor and must be confirmed by the senate...it doesn't help that Rick Perry is who he is...

[///M5 2,833]

No one here can find thinsulate either
