Ok, wow, I was off by a bit. Lets update those. AL East-Tampa Bay (Never thought I would seriously suggest Tampa would win the division, especially THIS division) AL Central-Twins (I love scrappy) AL West- Angels AL Wild Card- White Sox (Part homer pick, part BoSox/Yanks hate) NL East-Mets NL Central- Cubs NL West- Dodgers (They'll pull ahead of 'Zona, I'm almost certain) NL Wild Card- Brewers (They'll avoid a choke this year) Playoffs: Tampa over Minnesota Angels over White Sox Cubs over Dodgers Brewers over Mets Angels over Rays (If this series happened, it would be fantastic, and I wouldn't be surprised if Tampa Bay pulled it off) Cubs over Brewers Cubs over Angels

The Eldorado has such a fantastic history, so many beautiful cars, that I cant believe they would drop it. I am happy they didn't use it on the XLR, because Eldorado should be used on something with a usable back seat.

Saw what appeared to be a 50's Cadillac flying down the highway. I barely caught it out of the corner of my eye.

I've always had good experiences with Michelins, but those were always passenger cars that didn't get abused too bad.

As a cyclist, I agree that riders who ride in the middle of a public road are dicks. Get over to the side, let traffic pass, everyone goes on happy. Usually when I ride on a trail that drosses a road, I'll stop and let cars go instead of holding them up. Not only for their convenience, but for my own safety. And that sucks about the tires, what are you doing to them? 4wd burnouts?

Nah, this is just venting about fixing the little things. When I start getting into the real stuff (I have some interior and body trim ideas) and building a new 307, I'll start a new thread. I want to drive this car forever.

I saw this earlier. Its a 300ZX and a Supra, the pic isn't the best. If I could have one (or both) I'd be happy.

I'm just going to add $h! to this thread until the car either dies or doesn't need anymore work. Today was fun, since very early on I decided to search for the exhaust leak. The manifolds looked fine, so I figured it was a gasket. I also decided that since I was in a money spending (and work doing) mood, I'd tackle the rear shocks. One thing I dont think I ever mentioned is that my car had the towing package, which included the self-leveling suspension. Air shocks, yay. So I go to O'Reilly's to price check my shocks and gaskets. They give me my quote but say the shocks are at the warehouse so I move on to AutoZone, which is just up the block. AutoZone gives me a quote (a little less than O'Reilly's) but they tell me they dont have the parts in stock at the store, but the one 4 miles up the road has everything. So I run over there, get my gaskets and shocks and head back over to my sister's house, since my brother-in-law has an air compressor and god's own impact wrench. We tackle the shocks first. Before we get to work, he pops the hood and notices the compressor for the air shocks has been disconnected, but not just disconnected, someone beheaded the power cord so it cant be plugged in. Well $h!. So I take the air shocks back to AutoZone only to discover neither store close by has regular shocks in stock. Well $h!. Back to O'Reilly's to get some regular shocks ($32 for the set, way cheaper than the air shocks were). So I get to work, the driver's side was a snap. The passenger side, not so much. I tried, my bro-in-law tried, but the tailpipe was in the freaking way. Well, the tailpipe is Swiss Cheese and going to be replaced, so I tell him to grab the SawZall and circumsize that bitch. That made it worlds easier. Now I have a section of tailpipe (cut off about 3 inches past the muffler) and no clue what to do with it. Its still in the back of the car. Not to the exhaust leak. Upon closer inspection, the manifold is indeed fine the leak is coming from the gasket between the manifold and the pipe, so now I have the wrong freaking gasket. I go to take the gaskets back and find that I lost the receipt (or forgot to get the original when I took the shocks back) so I have to settle for store credit. I get the donut gasket and get to work. One more trip to O'Reilly's for a new bolt (long freaking story) and the car is good to go. She rides far better, is quieter, and for some reason the SES no longer comes on after a couple minutes. This car is going to kill me. It had better last through the winter, then I can get my Jeep or Jeep-like vehicle and look into restoring the Q.E.2.

Do I need to start specifying when I'm being serious and when I deliver a laugh line?

I've got a crotch-fro going.

Topic Tities?

:lol:

Thnx 4 da sggstn

While Biden has his pros and cons, he's a pretty safe choice, which disappoints me. I was hoping he'd pick someone completely out of the blue, like the 2nd Ward Alderman from Bumblef@#k, ND.

Actually was down to $3.27 by last night.

$3.29 today. Guess I picked a good time to cut my mpg in half.

I think I saw that one, that chick looked like she was in pain. On a less porn-related note, I think LA is on to something. There is a lot of anti-foreign sentiment around here.

Switzerland, eh? What makes a man turn neutral ... Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?

Nice, the Taurus X is overlooked, which is a shame, cause it seems like a fabulous vehicle. Oh, and your GM card comment took me off the Ford track, I was thinking Edge for a minute.

I like the list, but I'd probably move the Brera and 500 up.

Maybe they'll market it as a $15,000 ass hair removal device.

Just had this gem of a convo: Her: Why does the bathroom smell like burning hair? Me: Dunno, I usually burn my hair in the fireplace. Her: I'm serious Me: Isn't the better question, "why doesn't the rest of the house smell like burning hair?" Just for the record, the bathroom in question is the rarely used 2nd bathroom. I think the last time I was even in there was when I took some bad (very old) Pepto-Bismol and puked for about 10 minutes straight. That was a couple months ago. And for some unknown reason, there are 4 brand new, unopened tubes of toothpaste, all different brand, in the medicine cabinet.

Just realized I need to change my sig to "Also: One car you people dont appreciate" I'm going to have to do some research. I think the LG8 will slip right in, externally, its exactly the same as what I've got now. Its just the internals that have been upgraded. At least thats what I've gathered so far. I'll either rebuild or replace the transmission. I still dont have a fully working radio yet, just something I keep putting off. I need to check junkyards, since my list of part is growing. I need: --Rear passenger side door handle --Hood (this can wait) --Front seat --Passenger side rearview mirror --Dome light cover Also, I have the same wheels as this one: But I only have one of the caps that covers the lug nuts. I want 3 more.
