  1. The guy with a huge shit-eating grin pointing down at the hard-on in his pants? I'm sure it was on dz.com, but cannot for the life of me remember what thread it was in. If it was you, please repost here or PM me! You're all my heroes! Elvisio "self portrait" Rodriguez
  2. but then we'll have to rip out the seats, carpet, all that useless IFR (sorry, IMC) gear, put a few dents in the leading edge of the stabilizer, and cover the inside with stickers, just to make it "jumpworthy". Seems like a hassle, I think I'll just stick with the one we have.... Elvisio "does 3.2 million include the camera step?" Rodriguez edit: although... 1600 fpm climb in a full Otter would be pretty schweet!
  3. Sorry guys, refer to my post two posts above this one... apartment complex rather than house means no extension cords to the car. Thanks for the input though... Elvisio "more harm than good" Rodriguez
  4. Good idea, except that living on the top floor of a four story apartment building would make for a long damn extension cord.
  5. I can dig what they're saying about running your car without you in it being against the whole point of owning a hybrid, but I'm not so sure what parts of the car wear out faster. I've had remote start (aftermarket installed) for about four years now with no problems. I did just replace the starter, but hell it's a 1996 so I can't complain too loud. Long and short of it is that we just moved and don't have a garage anymore, and she gets all cranky about getting into a cold car in the mornings. She likes the mileage she gets from the hybrid, but probably doesn't have the bombproof moral conviction that other hybrid owners have on the subject, so she's not sweating the whole "then why have a hybrid" argument. Elvisio "as long as she's not asking me to go down there and start it for her every morning" Rodriguez
  6. The fiance wants an aftermarket remote-start unit installed on her 2004 Honda Civic Hybrid for Christmas. Don't have any idea how I'm going to fit the damn car under the tree once I have it installed, , BUT: What's the word on aftermarket remote-start units on hybrids? Is the wiring more complex enough that it'd be more difficult or impossible? Or are there few enough differences at that point in the powertrain to allow a safe install? I've called around to the shops in the area, and keep getting the same response: "well, we've never done an install on a hybrid before but we can't see why it'd be a problem." Yikes! How very reassuring. My #1 concern is that her car doesn't get FUBAR during the whole process. Elvisio "she can't handle the frigid 40 degree winter days here" Rodriguez
  7. A Christmas Together with John Denver and the Muppets. It's hokey, it's dated, it's pitched to folks about six years old; but it's the music of Christmas since I was knee-high to a grasshopper and that's the way it'll always be. Elvisio "when the river meets the sea" Rodriguez
  8. sorry dude if there was a curtain then they couldn't bombard all the early-arrivers with those damn slide-show ads for crappy soft drinks and whatnot. Of course that's before the thirty minutes of real commercials once the theater gets dark. And those are before the forty five minutes of previews. Remember when it used to be about actually seeing a movie? )sigh(....
  9. Oh yes, El Guapo, you have a plethora. Elvisio "jefe was da man" rodriguez
  10. I saw the same thing a while ago... except it was written from the other side of the fence where the ex-husband was the hero of the story. Good story though. Lucky for me the fiance hates seafood. Elvisio "pete and repete were walking down the street" rodriguez
  11. Broiled tuna steak and dill sauce. Tasty. Elvisio "fiance hates seafood" rodriguez
  12. As long as it's an invitation to join in! Elvisio "" Rodriguez
  13. You have THAT pic for your avatar and feel the need to start this thread? Elvisio "you know damn well" Rodriguez
  14. In this sport you'd get many more hits if you started up www.youowebeer.com Elvisio "fuck, I can't even spell entrepeneur" Rodriguez
  15. This... is what I was afraid of. I guess it's just time to start up a new account. I got almost ten years out of this one, so I guess I can't complain. Elvisio "spambags suck" Rodriguez
  16. I had it the wrong way around in my previous career, 6 ten hour days a week. In May when I graduate and get my RN, it'll be three 12 hour days a week. I'm going to try to pick up some part time work in fire/EMS, but that'll be gravy, besides that's not really work. Hell, I do it for free now. Gonna be schweet! Elvisio "blood and guts" Rodriguez
  17. Yes, I did search the forums... But didn't find anything on this subject in particular. Looks like most programs out there are for outlook or express. Does anyone have any tricks on how to boost the anti-spam capabilities on a yahoo account? My yahoo account did GREAT for years, but now it seems the filter is as porous as a screen door. It may just be that this addy has just had too much "exposure" and it's time to start up a new one... Elvisio "no I don't care about stock options or ViAgrA, dammit!" Rodriguez
  18. The guy said it enhances immune function?! Is that why I never get sick anymore! Elvisio "knew it wasn't wrong" Rodriguez
  19. sounds like your classmate has just the right attitude for the profession... Elvisio "tort reform" rodriguez
  20. Several years ago I just got irked by the idea of celebrating the holiday season and all the religious and seclular ideals it embodies by going out and killing something that has been alive for years and years. I know, I know: I have no problems eating turkey at Thanksgiving, ham at Easter, and I'll carve the HELL out of a pumpkin for Halloween. But, for some reason, this one is different. Elvisio "fickle bastard" Rodriguez
  21. My #1 road rage inducer: People who slow down (or GOD FORBID you should actually STOP) on an interstate on-ramp. (This is, of course, excluding the super-fucked-up construction area onramps where you're actually forced to stop) The whole point of the process is to MERGE. This will happen much more efficiently when the difference between your speed and that of traffic is minimized. Ergo, STEP ON IT. You can make the adjustments you need to get in front or behind a car by varying the amount of acceleration or at worst coasting for a bit. Elvisio "seeing red, and I don't mean blood on the highway" Rodriguez
  22. please don't ever wear any kind of headphones when biking... so dangerous! Elvisio "bicycling advocate" Rodriguez
  23. I used to live near the Big Bone Lick State Park... Elvisio "moved away FAST" Rodriguez
  24. I used to... in 1991... for about a week and a half. Elvisio "seemed to have missed their past few records" Rodriguez
