  1. "An eye for an eye makes the world blind."
  2. Thinks you're an idiot.
  3. There is a coil pack where spark plugs and wires are hooked too. That cross my mind, but couldn't lean bank prevent proper firing as well?
  4. It looks good to me.
  5. I have a 1997 Ford Explorer XLT. It has 183,700 miles. I'm looking at buying a new vehicle, but want see if I can fix my problem before doing so. I had the check engine light checked out and it saying my banks were lean. Cannot remember which one might been one and two? It had two lean banks and cylinder 3 and 6 misfired. The misfired could be directly related to the banks being lean. When I drive my car it kind of rides normal, but the idle is very shaky. Just like a misfired cylinder or two would do if not fired. The weirdest part is that it idles more roughly while in drive than in park. I suspected when it's idling it not getting enough oxygen or something, but when I acclerate I'm pushing more air and gas to make it run normal. I tried an engine cleaner in the gas tank few months ago when I had this problem. (Seaform) Few months ago it didn't idle as rough as it does now. I bought the same can and poured a half can into one of the intake hose (recommended by the guy at the auto store.) and white smoke came out of the exhaust pipe. I'm still having the problem and I may pour the rest half of the can back into the engine then check all my spark plugs. All of my spark plugs and plug wires are 11 months old. The air filter is clean, I have yet to find a hole in any vacuum hose, I don't know what else to check. There got be an engine cleaner or something to flush out any deposit or build up that prevent air flow, or maybe I just need a new o2 sensor? I'm just checking for a simple fix before I jump the gun.
  6. What you should of done was argued how irrelevant lsu was up until Saban arrived in Baton Rouge. They were god awful. In fact, I could pick out handful of us on bass resource and we would beat any team lsu ever fielded upon saban's arrival. They were horrible. Good lord. I rather live in communist state than root for lsu.
  7. George Carlin was the man.
  8. There are better retirement plans than banking on a small business venture. (Not to mention it is EXPENSIVE) As far as your last quote to my comment, nah that is just a coincidence. The outdoors is the primary reason. Edit: Google image search North Cascade National Park, Olympia National Park, and Mt. Rainer. The pictures along should be enough to get someone to move to Washington for the backpacking and climbing. Colorado probably doesn't have a steady job market unless you're in Denver area. (I mean job market for my area of expertise unless I changed career or something.)
  9. Your name shall be Barry McCockiner and make your number something random, etc
  10. Tell me about it. I got banned at the local laser tag arena. Apparently you cannot knife people to save ammo.
  11. Wife and sturdy financial situation generally do not go hand in hand. It's true that a woman can make you a millionaire, but you first must be a billionaire.
  12. There was nothing like a good Nerf gun battle in the basement and playing "war" in the woods.
  13. I'd like to move to Seattle area; go backpacking and climbing every weekend would be the dream. Colorado be another state, but I think Seattle has better job market. Hopefully I can get the fund and the experience to move out west one day soon.
  14. It would have been funnier if you had said you rather talk through plastic cups and string than a rock. At least this method would have been practical.
  15. Seriously? You go and bashed Apple, then turned around and complained about your phone that wasn't an Apple?!?!? My iPhone has never pocket dialed or unlocked itself. I don't wear no douchy looking hipbelt holster. Anyhoo, is there an Apple store nearby, Clayton? If so they can do a diagnostic onsite and lead you in direction of fixing it. I don't know how much it would cost if phone out of warranty.
  16. I let the dogs out.
  17. Plus therapy can get expensive.
  18. This song has been stuck in my head for days:
  19. I never had anyone to really constantly mouth off at me, because when they get ready to I usually throw out some random dollar amounts, and they shut up. It very amusing how few bucks make them start shutting up and become stumped, or walk away. Edit: P.S. try it sometimes. "Every second you're bothering me with this you're costing the company money!
  20. In the light of new information, I suppose those high end coolers will keep ice in its solid form for a few days. I've never used one nor do I have use for one at this time. If it was just for a couple hours, I'm like why do people buy such high end cooler for few hours?!?!? Edit: Around here we have access to lot of ice vending machines, so I rarely see high end coolers.
  21. I don't think I ever had a problem with good ol' fashion foam cooler..
  22. It was delicious. It didn't take long to cook the meat, you have to keep an eye on it. I cut the shells so the meat stuck out of it. Dipped in hot butter, with side of Caribbean style rice and Garlic Caesar salad. It was a great meal. Next time I'm try searing it.
  23. Hmmmm, fresh McDonald's chicken wings!! http://blogs.wsj.com/corporate-intelligence/2013/08/26/mcdonalds-chasing-the-chicken-wing-crowd-for-football-season/
  24. I bought a couple lobster tails last night at the store and figure I cook them tonight. Has anyone try cooking them on broil in the oven? If so, how did it turn out? I usually grilled mine until the shell turns red, but thought I try it different tonight. Caesar salad, Caribbean style rice, and broil lobster tails? Edit: I also thought of pan searing it by removing it from shells completely. olive oil and sear lobster on each side.
