    Water Softeners

    Hi Everyone, I am looking to buy a water softener system for my house. The water here is pretty hard and it is ruining all of our appliances and clothing. I have been researching several different systems and I am very interested in the salt free kind. Does anyone have any experience with salt free water softeners? I am looking at one from Pelican Water http://www.pelicanwatertechnologies.com/natursoft_series.php I am really interested to find out if these work as advertised. Any help would be appreciated -Oren Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  2. You don't attach it. It just wraps around your neck and has velcro. It fits perfectly under my Z1 helmet. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  3. This is the one that I use http://www.amazon.com/EVS-RC1-Race-Collar/dp/B000JFOI7C/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&s=automotive&qid=1236627289&sr=8-23 Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  4. Were you at Z-hills when you saw this? If so it was probably me that you saw. It is not a HANS device it is a simple collar. Superfletch posted a link that is just like what I use. I have had neck problems for years. My girlfriend had cervical fusion a few years ago. We both wear them and find that it helps a lot. Especially during the opening. It helps with the whiplash effect. I still have pretty close to a full range of motion wearing it. I can see everything that I need to see. All I can say is that after a weekend of jumping my neck used to be extremely sore. Now it feels normal. Since we started wearing them a few months ago, there have been a whole bunch of people that have bought them and started to jump with them. Everyone seems to think it helps. I can post a link to the one I use if anyone is interested. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  5. Since Sid is dead, I guess I would have to say Johnny. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  6. Brunswick Bowling is awesome and a big hit when there are a bunch of people over partying. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  7. That's why there ain't a repo man in the business that don't take speed
  8. Their salaries are usually relatively small. When I worked in the financial world, we had bankers making 200K per year and $250 Million in annual bonuses. Most companies have salary caps for everyone at a certain level. A managing director can only make a certain amount in salary. Their real compensation comes from the bonuses which are usually based on a percentage of the amount of money they bring in. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  9. Wow, if that is the case, where would you say we have been going for the last 8 years? Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  10. Please don't freak out on me here. I am asking an honest question not trying to stir anything up. Why are pro gun people and the NRA so opposed to gun registration. I don't understand what the problem is with that. When talking about things like phone taps I have always been told, if you aren't doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about. Those same people that say that are opposed to gun registration. If you aren't doing anything wrong with your guns, what difference does it make. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  11. Your day only looked like that because you are not married. If we let you marry another woman everything changes. From that point on you will spend your day trying to undermine straight couples and convert their kids to your gay ways. I know it's true. A friend of a friend of my cousin said that in her church they said so. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  12. The FIOS service is fantastic. The internet speeds are ridiculous. The TV picture is better than anything else I have seen. If you think you were dealing with morons at Comcast, just wait. You have not yet begun to witness stupidity. The service is great, but I honestly can't say that I have ever dealt with a bigger bunch of idiots. The speed and picture are definitely worth the headaches though. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  13. In other words, you can't come up with a valid argument or any evidence that what I said was not correct. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  14. I knew exactly what you meant. I just don't believe in the fictional character that you consider your maker. Man made up a god and wrote a fictional book to prove his existence. I am ok with that if you choose to believe it, I am ok with it right up until the point where you say that anyone who doesn't believe it is wrong. It is even more of a problem when you start to pass laws that say that what others do is wrong if they don't believe the same myths that you do. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  15. I don't know who your maker is, but my parents made me and they have no problem with gay marriage. Guess that means it is right then? Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  16. Sorry, I can't agree with that. I have my standards, they may be low, but I have them. There are some people here that are disgusting excuses for human beings. Skydivers or not they are racists and bigots. Hearing what they say turns my stomach. There is no way that I would want to have a beer with them. They would not be welcome in my home. I pretty much wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. People here often say that they disagree but would buy each other a beer if they met. There are plenty of people that I disagree with regarding politics and political views and I enjoy drinking and debating with them. There are others that consider themselves to be moral and good and they are downright evil and horrible human beings. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  17. How is that any different than saying blacks that the same schools and bathrooms they are just separate from the whites? Or, saying that blacks can marry blacks and whites can marry whites, see they have the same rights. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  18. So you think they should be given equal yet sperate rights? Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  19. Do those people throw out all of their underwear and buy new ones each time or do they maybe wash the old ones and wear them again? Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  20. I am not trying to legislate anything. I am trying to stop you from taking away people's rights. As far as imposing my anti-god views, I have nothing against god or anyone who believes. As long as they don't try to impose their beliefs on people that don't feel the same way they do. That by the way is exactly what you are trying to do. Instead of saying something like "I don't agree but you have the right to do whatever you want as long as it doesn't affect me" you are saying "I don't agree and I am going to get my friends together to pass a law to stop you from doing it even though it doesn't affect me in any way" Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  21. I could ask you the same questions?! Are you saying there's something wrong with children being brought up in a home with a mother and father? I'm pretty sure the research out there is in favor of children growing up in intact households with a mother and father who love them and each other. I am not the one claiming there is a problem with either scenario. You are the one making the claim that a child growing up in a same sex household has something less than a loving caring home. What IS important is the child having parents that love and care for them. The sex of the parents has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the love and care given to the child. To claim otherwise displays either ignorance or bigotry. Because you disagree with the idea of homosexuality doesn't give you the right to try to legislate against it. You are trying to impose your religious views on others. Once again, funny how you choose to obey only those parts of the bible that fit into your narrow views while ignoring the rest.

  22. Who the hell are you to decide what is best for families? Are you saying that there is something wrong with children brought up in a same sex household? I love how you pick and choose what you want to obey in the bible and what you choose to ignore. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  23. So you're saying that the election of a black man who doesn't necessarily agree with your particular views means the US is about to implode. If you have that little faith in a fellow American who clearly loves his country, as someone else wrote earlier "meh, don't the door slap you on the ass on the way out."

  24. Where is the option for when you move out of the house and can support yourself? Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  25. But that is only because same sex couples aren't allowed to marry. If they were given the right to marry like different sex couples, there would be no need for a law allowing them special rights. I agree with you that marriage is an out dated concept and I agree with others that the government should stay out of the marriage business. But, as long as it exists and the government accepts it, they should not be able to choose who can marry whom. As long as all parties involved are legally allowed to enter into a binding contract (marriage), then the government should have no say in it. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
