  1. Well of course the battery is either draining or charging at any given time, but couldn't you be throwing 2 amps st charging it while it's also giving up 1 amp to some other purpose, resulting in a net charging rate similar to 1 amp? Otherwise, how come when I tow my RV, I seem to charge the batteries while they're also powering the 12V stuff inside the RV (both from the single hot wire coming from my truck.) I think I've previously tried disconnecting a battery while a car was running, but I can't remember whether that shut the car off or not. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

  2. Since you're getting so many serious replies, I'll say that I'm mostly the same in real life. I try to respect HH's rules here, which probably waters down my opinions at some times. I also used to be a bit more boisterous in real life, but that's slowed down as people have forgotten camera etiquette. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  3. Bummer. I've been highly entertained by his posts and stories about him for several years now. I'm sorry he won't be making any more. My condolonces to his family, his friends, and all the trannies around the world. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  4. What he said except the spouse part and the camera thing...cheating is cheating regardless of the gender of the third party. (Trysts involving a hot chick as a third and a camera should be pre-arranged and the "rules" agreed upon ) Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

  9. Blues, Dave Aren't you supposed to be in LP??? shoo shoo g Nah, not this year. Life was getting in the way and spending a weekend somewhere other than an airport didn't sound all that bad (haven't done that since March). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

  11. The core from the battery should be a source of income for the dismantler, not a cost. As far as I know, the car won't run off the alternator without some semblance of a battery in the loop. I think the car runs off the battery and the alternator simultaneously charges the battery, but I could be wrong. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  12. It's a show with a British guy critiquing food...talk about a guaranteed train wreck! v Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  13. Crap! Did you have me sign one of those the other weekend, Dave? Of course I did, and Bill & I sure could use some help next weekend while Rosie is over at Leap for Lupus. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

  19. Interesting. I think it would be mean and cruel to knowingly have a child with DS. This is the difficult thing. Children with Down's can have a lot of trouble with peer acceptance, behavioral issues, etc. But adults with Down's are typically happy and joyful with life. What he said. I can't really say how I'd feel in such a situation. In some of the more severe problems, I think the wish to abort would be pretty easy for me to reach. Down's Syndrome would be tougher because my admittedly limited interactions with people so afflicted have shown them to be (or at least seem) far happier than most of us "healthy" people.

  22. I'm guessing that like most instructors, you are an independent contractor, not an employee...is that correct? If so, I'd think you'd have to have a written contract with the DZO stating you would not provide your services to his competitors for some specific period of time. Without that, I can't imagine him having a leg to stand on. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  23. Diplomacy and mutual respect. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  24. So which group should stay away from our DZ, the officers or the enlisted men? Maybe they could alternate weekends, one weekend the officers come to our DZ and the enlisted men drive 480 miles round-trip to the next closest DZ, the following weekend they switch. Or maybe they can all come, but only if they promise to not fraternize? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  25. Bummer. At least he seemed to make the best of his final chapter. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
