Im back lol

Has anyone seen Talladega Nights? It has to be one of the funniest movies ever. "Thank you 8lb 9oz baby jesus" Lol

Got a ? how come i can be saving images and then one will come up that is a bitmap but in the address bar it ends in .jpg? I got around this by emailing them to myself and saving them accordingly. Also with that is there a program that converts the bitmaps to jpg for free. This trial program i have is good but i want free.

[blazee]

That movie looked pretty good. I usually wait til they come out on DVD to watch them though.


If you're using firefox, try dragging the images to the desktop.

Dad started calling around, and found a mechanic willing to come over and finish this job. I really hate paying someone to do this, because of the cost. He's gonna either be able to come over Monday or Tuesday. $83/hr for about 5-6hrs approx. This is what I was figuring anyways. DAMMIT I want my truck, This is why i want to buy another vehicle, so im not stranded.

Do u wanna drive that truck to PA and have my 30/hr mechanic do it?

Im on IE i gotta go do some more googling on the subject.

That movie is so funny going to see it this weekend again.

lol shawn, only way to move the truck right now, is on a flatbed. I haven't heard from the guy yet, and its near 2pm, so im assuming that its gonna be tomorrow till it gets fixed.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The BS continues with HP. I emailed last night to see where my 48 hour response was and i got one this morning finally. Guess what?

Were back to square freaking one.

I for about the 9-15th time have to tell these people what day i recieved the monitor, what day i recieved the box, and what day it went out.


Whats great is i tell these people that on July 4th-5th i was on vacation i returned home on the 6th the monitor arrived that day. I dropped it off on the 10th but the company that ships doesnt ship out till next day so try July 11th/ and these clowns already told me it was lost in there system.

Anger going through the top of the scale.

after not having time to goto my folks house in a few days, im heading there today, hoping to have my truck tonight. My dad was telling me that the workers ended up breaking the parking brake release, so im gonna try to tackle that focker after i get it drivable. lol, I ended up getting sunburnt yesterday walking to work. its been a day, and still feeling the heat on my face. \

All of the above commander.

Lol sunburnt, well if they broke your cable and you payed 83/hr i think i knock that down to 30/hr its going to take money to fix.

money to fix, and have to take stuff parts off the truck again . suppose i'll finish up tomrrow. Its been the longest 6 days w/o trasportation. Thinking i'll put on 50-75 miles after I get it put back together, just since i missed driving so much. Theres no reason that it shoulda taken this long, but working with dad gets real stressful.

Anybody see that yet. I think the link was released last week, it deals w 9/11 trial and what not, some graphic stuff on that.

[mike1224]

get it, I really enjoyed getting inked. somewhat enjoyable, just sitting there. or at least for me, once i get more $$, I'd like to get more stuff done

[s10blazerman4x4]

mike in the calmest voice i could i told HP off and a brand new 15" LCD monitor is coming my way in 2 days overnight by air. The kicker for them was when i told them that i had been told about 10 days ago that it had reached there facilities but was lost. She goes "Oh, well if i can put you on hold for a few minutes and i will arrange for a new monitor to be there shortly." Score one for the little person. Only took from June 20 or so when the original died to get this new one now in August. Started my complaint on July 27 and here we are August 11 and also am going to get brand new cables. Oh by the way it went to the case managers. So maybe just maybe ill be rocking a dual monitor setup early next week.

hey guys, this is about 15years older than I want but I like the power behind that truck. http://www.rockysautosinc.com/cgi-bi...mo=Blazer#detl

Since d/l firefox i have not been able to keep my internet connection for more than an hour. It started last nite and has been doing it constantly. Anybody know what to look for? I ran spybot and nothing and i did a registry cleaner and there was nothing in there either.

Also muzzy i came across tihs site.

http://www.perrysfabnfiber.com/Ford/Ranger/89-92/


They have some stuff for your year truck.Has anyone ever used fiberglass parts before? They seem to have really good prices as in 400/pair on bedsides and 300/pair on fenders. They also have conversions to make the front end look like the newer ones. I mite look into that if its not to detail oriented. It seems to come with the fenders hood and bumpers but i am not sure if stock lights are used or junkyard ones.


Also anyone have some reviews on CHevron Techron fuel cleaner? I read it was really good stuff and i paid 10 bucks today for a bottle. I wanna put it in and see if it helps out till i get the money for the tuneup.I have an issue where all symptons point to tune up as the log book in the truck tells me the following:

Plugs 1996 29k ago
Wires the above
Fuel Filter 1994
PCV 2004
Oil Change sometime this year its due in about 700 miles
He had some injectors replaced in 96
Also had the oil pan gasket replaced.

But im hoping if tihs stuff is as good as they say itll give me a few more weeks as fuel mileage is attrocious. 90 miles and im like an inch from half tank.

Thanks Shawn - cool site but a little too knarley for me. I've used the Chevron stuff before and don't have any complaints. I always thought the engine ran a little better after. The price is kinda ugly though. I haven't used it in a couple of years but I remember paying $6-7 for it back then.
