Bleach on cartoon network is about 120 episodes behind.... me and my girl been watching it in the original japanese (subtitled) for almost 2 years now. Pretty bad ass series, but it strings you along forever, just like Dragonball used to. So we usually wait for about 10 or 15 new episodes to come out, and then spend a saturday watching them.

i've been doing the same thing for Naruto...i've been watching it on youtube since i finished reading the books...which are like 200+ episodes behind

She never got close enough to really confirm that there were discernable body parts. She hoped I would come, inspect, and conclude that it was a ball of dryer lint. Once I picked it up by its tail her hopes were dashed.

Does anybody know anything about the Boondocks coming back?

read something about it last week...i think it is supposed to

found this

that's a lot of profanity...

Hilarious.... south Dallas, through and through. :cwm27:

i've never seen that shit. that's hilarious

Tell me what you guys think about this:

http://richmond.craigslist.org/car/392683279.html
Specs

1.6 ZC DOHC
Acura Intake and throttle body
Acura ECU
Header
Cold air intake
5 speed trans with new clutch
Coil overs
Windows tinted
Black
After market front finders
New rack and pinion with sway bar

Car runs good. Its well on its way to being really fast and good looking. Bodys in great shape. Sounds loud but not to loud. Just got it inspected, all it needed was two new tires for the back and the rack and pinion which I replaced with a better one with a sway bar. Cars regular hieght now but can be slamed down with the coil overs. Price is firm. The car needs small things but the things on it are well worth $1500. I bought the car not running for $1000 so no deals unless you have a full sized older truck preferable a chevy for trade or an older car. Other then that cash on it as is. Got pics if you want just email me back.

And this is the email he sent:
Right now nothing, Ive fixed everything. It runs fine but its a honda eventually something will need to be replaced, but so far Ive replaced a whole lot. I drive it to work monday through friday and I live 30 miniutes from work and neer have any problems. I got it inspected a week ago and all it needed was a two tires and a rack andpioniun which a replaced. Anywyas thats the car any other questions.

Not too worried about the paint…I’m sure I could find someone to switch fenders and tail lights…but overall…you think it’s worth it?

mmmm...I would say no. Reminds me of a crappy horribly painted flat black crx I went to look at one night...omg was it not worth it

see i don't know...and if it's not worth it i don't want to drive 3hrs to Richmond just to see it

The crap mods on it are what bring the value below $1500 imo. If you aren't worried about getting rid of the bs then I guess it'd be worth it

Ok, so forget the first one; I may have found one

1989 Honda Civic Hatchback. 1.5 liter 4 cyl. Engine and Transmission replaced last year. 5 speed, runs strong, few minor fixes to get it on the road. Good tires. Blue. Body in good condition.

Email me and make an offer.

Email from hims ays these are the things that are wrong with it:
Back up light sockets need to be removed (simply snipped), small exhaust leak, brake pads and seats need to be lagged in. These things can be done inexpensively.

looks just like my last 2 http://www.vadriven.com/forums/images/smilies/love.gif

I don’t know what lagged in means though…I will have to drive to Richmond to see it though…so I may go check out other cars if this one is bad…and the black 4-door I was looking at was gone unfortunately

MUCH better! 1k would be a good buy on that I would say. Body looks very clean and un-dented (just what you can see) and one of those sound like problems that will cost more than $100. Interior looks clean as well, but also looks like a std (vinyl, blech) that was made into a 5spd, just like mine.

when it comes to civics...vinyl is all i know :(

man what a week i've had. i've been at the hospital with my wife since monday. they finally figured out whats wrong with her and why she has been feeling horrible for the past 4 months. the doctors finally cught a flutter of her heart on the heart monitor. so they admitted her and i have spent the last two nights sleeping on two chairs put kinda together. my fucking back hurts. but they figured out that one of the valves in her heart is doing something wrong. so tomorrow we are going to get an echocardiogram done. (it's a ultrasound of the heart) and that should tell us more. but man i've been so stressed out and tired. and i've missed two days of work. which is fine iguess i just hope they didn't do a lot while i was gone i hate playing catch up.

and i still haven't got my new tires yet. i was trying for the falken rt-615 but i'll have to settle for the falken ziex 512. damn ppl who don't stock the tires i want.

that sux...hopefully it turns out well

Zeix 512s are a good tire. I had them for a long while then bought some more... wish I had some now

well wishes to the wifey!

I ran the Nitto NeoGen's on my purple hatch for 3 years... had the Nitto 555's before that... liked the NeoGen's soooooooo much better! I'm actually missing them now... these stupid michelins my Si came with don't grip for shit... abs is always kicking on and stability assist is assisting too much cause they slip so bad.... oh well.
My best friend runs the ziex 512 on his ZX2... they're alright I guess, but he burns through them fast! Got less than 20k miles out of them before they were bald.

I had Nitto NT450's on my crx for the 2 1/2 yrs I owned it..they were "ok" great dry traction, but horrible in the rain even though they are supposed to be a wet tire.. probably due to the horrible brake bias on my crx..I swear the drums didnt even work. I was going to buy some neogens for my next set, I still think I will for my hatch..cheap and good performance, cant beat it.

I Just Like New Rubber

Does your buddy drive aggressive on his tires? I keep it pretty even but when I put the 150 horses of fury to the pavement the 512s held well for me. As I recall (this was about 2 years ago I had em) they lasted me about 30K. I think I liked them mostly because of their stability in the rain which Tallahassee has a lot of

His right foot is no heavier than mine, and my first set of NeoGen's lasted me nearly 40K miles.

Ah so. Well I guess you get what you pay for. The Nittos are a little more pricey than the Falkens which were a severe upgrade from the Kumhos I had before them.

I remember when I had a nicely padded pocket and got some Pirelli P-0 Neros for my fronts to replace the Falkens... pretty sweet. Then I caught a nail through my sidewall not too long after and wanted to cry

runnin nitto 555 on my 22s and my truck has a hard time spinnin them

so im thinkin about goin back to the acura/honda family...

im tryin to finish my truck here real quick goin to get a newer rl like this

http://image3.autorevo.com/694/pics/158511_69f6a682-de20-4850-9625-3aadb5724ebf.jpg

was thinkin about an audi a4 also, but idk

http://images2.ecarlist.com/photos/974_13413/640/00.jpg

you have to think of it with regards to repairs...but if you are keeping up your current trend, you may not have it for long...i personally say a 90's A8

thanks for the good wishes. the specialists we saw said she should go to a university. so i have to get the doc on base to recommend it before tricare with accept it. argh insurance is a pain in the ass.

oh yeah the echo went ok. they caught two heartmurmors and still think another specialists is a good idea, also had to spend all of thursday in the hospital.

got my tires. the 512's they are ok, definitly not as sticky as my rt-215 were.

well that's good

nice RL. i wouldn't mind a TL Type S :naughty:

my treo 650 ended up being ran over by a car a couple of weeks ago. i actually found a sprint 650 in perfectly good working order except it was missing the antenna. the antenna was about the only thing left working on mine. i picked it up & synched my old info on to it...have been using it about a month. it was upgrade time. with a $150 upgrade credit + sprint rebate a new 755 cost me $200. i plan to sell the old 650 for $100 so i think all in all i didn't do that bad ending up having $100 into it.

one of my friends got a tahitian green hatch the other day..gotta love that si..im in the process of moving..supposed to be out of my place on monday but idk if thats gonna happen..new place kicks ass tho..its only me and one of my friends from high school and weve got a ton of space..it has a decent backyard but still no garage...

me and my two friends from hs are looking for a place now. I think I'm gonna have to insist that we have a garage

Tony insurance is most def crazy. I just came back from my prep training for illinois insurance licensing and the book of rules/details/procedures we took home on life and health insurance is 600+ pages plus another 70 page book on IL insurance law. Some of the stuff we went over today is plain :screwy:

went to Fayetteville yesterday...the have a hotdog resturant called "The Weiner Works"...i'm like "good to know"

:lol: we got a chain in chicago called "Weiner and Still Champion" which until just now was my favorite hotdog restaurant name

wienerschnitzel- got one of these down the street.

amy- that's the lil palm pilot looking thing right?

does it work good? i'm looking into to upgradeing my sprint phone. i hate my katana

I wonder far I am from my next $150 sprint credit. They truly are the evil empire; everytime I think I'm out, they pull me back in.

What I'd really like to know is how come every single woman on the Univision news is incredibly sexy and why don't english speaking stations follow suit?

ah univision. it would be interesting if the u.s. stations did that.

blue ive owned my truck for over year now...

its odd for me but yea.... i hope to have it done in the next 6 months, then who knows how long it will take to sell....

only thing turning me away from the audi is the price of parts to fix it...

wish i could afford a 40k dollar new one, but yea i could... dont want that payment tho


goin to list my truck for 18k only owe 10k so thats a nice 8k in my pocket, only expecting 15k for it so that still half an rl.. shit in the time it takes me to finish and sell my truck ill owe even less then the 10k

i hate my katana

guy at sprint told us to stay away from those

yes stay away they suck.

i feel bad now...went to my brothers house and was watching Naruto full screen on his 42" flat screen tv (has his computer hooked up to the tv) and it was crystal clear...now i come home and watch it on my 19" computer screen...i need a big tv :(

amy- that's the lil palm pilot looking thing right?


it is made by palm. it is basically a palm pilot turned into phone. i f'in' loved it! it lasted 1.5yrs of my abuse...took a car running over it to finally kill it. i can't tell you how many times i've "leaned" on it in my pocket while working on cars. we stayed in a hotel 2 mos ago with "wireless" internet....ha! the signal was 1 bar and my laptop could not connect or stay connected. the treo internet is like dial-up, not always the fastest.....but at least it works! the built-in digi/video cam takes good pics/vid. the google maps program gives me the directions to get where i'm going and then has a search feature for places to eat and what-not after i get there. i could go on and on because we travel A LOT, i rely on it for many things daily and it gets the job done.

upgrading as soon as the upgrade credit came up was a no-brainer for me.

I just checked and apparently I'm eligible for my $150 upgrade 12/1/07 :bananasmi Only a couple more months with this damn samsung. My 9 and # buttons don't work too well anymore so i gotta press extra hard to get them to register which often causes multiple 9's to show up. Its a pain in the ass to text with.

i dropped sprint...i owe them money...suddenly my bill was $120 for 2 lines...and they wouldn't change it back to my original plan...so i said screw you guys...i ain't payin :grinno:

do you have to have a special plan to use the treo?

I still owe sprint local in tallahassee for when they charged us $120 to have a technician switch our house from 3 separate lines to 1. The last tenants had wanted a line for each room, we only wanted one, so sprint charged us for our wanting a normal house. Not to mention they didn't tell us there were 3 lines when we moved in, nor did they tell us it would cost us to have it returned to normal. Lucky for me the phone bill was in my name :rolleyes:

i still ahve to see when the cable ppl will come out to the house.

I can't wait til I move so I can get my dish network back. I'm struggling without my pausable and rewindable tv

haha. My parent just upgraded to the dvr and moved their old reciever to the other living room for my grandmother to use. It's crazy how those things work. Wish they'd upgrade the one in my room to one too, but that's not happening anytime soon.

i'm good w/o dvr...don't really care to have it

i wouldn't mind a vcr

whats a vcr? :sly: :grinno:

blu, once you taste the ability to pause a football game, go get hotwings, return to the house, and not miss a play you won't be able to live without it. I'd trade my vtec for a dvr right now

i don't watch sports...save for the x-games...i'd rather play than watch

If given a choice, which one would you take…
