  1. Well...ummm....o....k..... ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
  2. well it might not be totally enviromentally correct, but to lower my heating bill, and live more comfortably, i installed a wood burning stove. total cost was $3600, installed. now, i am a general conctractor, so i am able to scrap all the wood from my spec homes, so wood cost is essentially zero...not counting my wood collecting labor. we have about 4 months of heating up here in desert...and my sub contractors were telling me of $250/month gas bills...so 4 X 250 = $1000 saved per year...so i am looking at about a 5 year payback. buuuuut...the overall comfort is so much better that forced air, much like a cabin in the mountains. i keep the house at about 78 in the winter....nice and toasty. you just needt to run a humidifier, or put a big pot of water on the stove itself so the air does not get to dry. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

  6. yeah, it might be...but the FAA air worthyness guy out here on the west coast is pretty cool. you may want to contact these guys... http://www.lasportaviation.com/index.html Matt Liknaitzky helped me locate my trike.

    i feel your pain. I have a Border Collie mix...and he cant stay away from duck crap, dead fish, or anything else rotting on the ground. My Boxers just look at him and say..."Dude, that is so wrong" Oh, did I forget to inform everyone that I actually can hear my dogs conversations...um, yeah.

  11. Allow me to introduce you to my wife...line over on a 135 spectre. Everyone had told her to chop it if this ever happened. She traced the line up, released her breakes, one pump of brakes and the line over slid off. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

  19. Duuuude, mellow out. I started skydiving when I was 31(now 37). Yes I am lucky, i look and feel 25 still, but hey, thats what jumping does, keeps you young. But skydiving can be expensive, but no more than a car payment, or jetski, or a bag of good clubs. I did spend 10 grand getting into the sport though. But hey, I drive a beater truck...no 800 payment for me. Anyway, about the school thing. Its a good thing IF you put your education to work. I didnt for the first 5 years or so after college, worked for other people, slaved, made them rich. Anyway, what I am saying is, dont dump 50K into an education and then dont use it. I went to school for construction management, now I am a general contractor, my own company...actually just me...but I use my education everyday, it makes me money by limiting my mistakes. But if you want to make good money, do your own thing. I dont care if it is selling tires, building bridges, or being a hooker...the point is...every business you see driving down the road is own by someone who put thier balls (sorry ladies) on the table and went for it. Do it now, while your young and have the energy. Good luck.
  20. Yeah....I had it that bad when I was 27 (except for the balls part...lol). Just gotta knock yourself out. It's the only way. so you know exactly what I mean about the unstopable itching! I thought my face would never get back to normal...it looked like someone beat the crap out of me with a rake or a pitchfork... ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
  21. Hell no! I remember when I was 18 I got the chicken pox. The ONLY thing that would help was a six pack and benadryl...yes I mixed em...you would too if you had pox up nose, on your tounge, completly covering body, balls, and bung hole...hoooooly crap it was bad. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
  22. Good for the law! My mom was almost taken out by a DUI. I wonder if Discovery Channel Biker Build off will show its viewers this story. Maybe it should go like this... "Next time on Biker Buildoff, the Chopper king visits Billy Lane in the big house, where he builds a chopper from a piece of weight lifting equipment...." Personally, I think this chopper fad is gottean way out of hand, and is all about posers now. Ok, now flame me...but I wont be here...gotta go flying this morning. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
