I've got the Saitek x52 now, but the throttle control is funky - I'm having trouble either getting 100% throttle or idling back all the way. I've been playing with the settings, but to no avail. Other than that, I'm happy. Any ideas? Easy Does It

Depends - maybe $200 or so - Easy Does It

That's the beauty of going to a small repair shop rather than a dealership. What ever work I don't do myself, I take to a local shop here in town. When my Ranger needed a new clutch, just to humor myself, I went to the dealer - $900 bones including parts. My local shop? $300.00, and he asked me to go pick up the parts myself. Totally rocks. One shop I went to in NY is run by a high school friend - Oil Change? Stop by at the end of the day with a twenty dollar bill and a twelve-pack. Hang out, catch a buzz and you might get asked to help stuff a transmission before going on to the oil change. It's all good. Easy Does It

OK - What's the best set-up I can get for controls? Easy Does It

I just wait 'til they go down metal-to-metal, it makes a really cool grinding noise - then replace pads and rotors both. If you wait that long, the guy at the shop won't argue with you, and will be happy to turn your worthless cash into a nice fat paycheck for himself. Easy Does It

My .02 - Could be funny as hell and make for some good video - Or could result in some major mishap. I'm sure there's better ways to get a good laugh. Easy Does It

I was 18. Never was a big fan of his music. After Yoko broke up the band everything went to shit. Easy Does It -

Just about anything on regular primetime TV blows. Except Adult Swim. And the Daily Show. And the Colbert Report. Easy Does It -
Why settle for a copy when you can have an original? Personally, if I were going to but a bike tomorrow it would be the 2007 Street Bob. Currently I own a 2000 Dyna Wide Glide. Easy Does It

In the Air Force - Took the little musical electronic thingy out of a Christmas card and taped it up under the top drawer of our NCOIC's desk- ( I was assistant NCOIC at the time-) and rigged it so it would start playing as soon as he opened his drawer. Took him five minutes to find it and shut it off, in front of a room full of personnel. I was presumed guilty right away, (was out of the section that morning) and got alot of congrats for one of the best pranks in the squadron in a long time, being very funny and very harmless.

Never deliberately tried to finger out a password - Went to friends' house once, and his wife had all the passwords to email, bank, CC sites, etc along with usernames and account #s neatly typed out and taped to the wall. Basically, anyone could have walked in while they weren't home, sat down at thier computer and wiped them out. "Bad Idea" I told 'em!!! Easy Does It

Thankful that there is God, and he keeps an eye on our asses, weather we like it or not. Three beautiful children, and three wonderful grandsons- Mom and Dad. For my family, (weather we get along or not -) For the Internet, that we as can share these things with one another - I've got a job, a truck in the driveway, gas in the tank, food in the fridge, heat in the furnace, and a roof over my head, and few coins in my pocket. That I get to participate in such a wonderful sport with such wonderful people - For my country and that I've had the opportunity to serve proudly in uniform. For all the friends, girlfriends, wives and lovers that have, and continue to be, a big part of my life. The the two cats - Bart and Enzo. The Harley-Davidson Motor Company. Thermal underwear. Latex condoms. Beer. Scotch. Everyone who has help lift me up when I was down, and who knocked me down when I got too high. I could go on and on - You get the idea though - Easy Does It

Usually 9 to 10 hours per day, although I'm "on call" 24/7. I don't do anything for this company for free. If I get called in after hours, I pad my time card accordingly. I do the same for the guys working for me should they get called. Easy Does It

No need to apologize, it's all good. I've got a few tats myself that most people like but there's a few that are freaked out by them. We're cool, right? Easy Does It
