    What I would like to know is why all these smily scoots look like 2nd gens Is there a conspiracy here or is it just because they haven't made a camera with a shutter speed fast enough to catch a first gen in motion.

    It all makes perfect sense to me. After you spend 5 plus billion of tax payers hard earned money on a gun registry, for legit gun owners, all possible criminal activity is wiped out. So naturaly you can afford to lay policemen off. Far wiser than using the money to try and improve and strengthen the police force against crime.:bang head::bang head:

    Thats good Bob, however I found that iodized table salt though maybe a little more costly is more effective At cleaning up an infected wound. Between personal injury's the kids and the horses I have used it alot and wether it is well founded or not, I tend to swear by it. True enough Swifty but like many of us at least you felt it. Poor Bob didn't even know it was there, giving the infection a head start. For myself I think I am glad i was always able to feel it so it could be tended to right away. Good luck Bob

    if due to space you need to use it straight in line with the torgue wrench there is a math formula you need to use to calculate for the difference in length. Here are some links that explains it and it actually includes an online conversion calculator so you don't have to do the math your self http://www.freeinfostuff.com/TorqueExtension/TorqueExtension.htm this second one has a downloadable zip file that you can put on your pc and it performs the caculations instantly as you change the numbers in the boxes http://www.belknaptools.com/extcalc.asp Using an inline extension and some calculating you can use your torque wrench to tighten bolts that are outside of your torque wrenches normal capacity.

    A young ventriloquist is touring the clubs and one night he's doing a show in a small town in Tasmania. With his dummy on his knee, he starts going through his usual dumb blonde jokes when a blonde woman in the 4th row stands on her chair and starts shouting: 'I've heard enough of your stupid blonde jokes. What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the colour of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being? Its men like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community, and from reaching our full potential as people. Because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against not only blondes, but women in general... and all in the name of humour!' The embarrassed ventriloquist begins to apologize, and the blonde yells, 'You stay out of this mate! I'm talking to that little **** on your lap!'

    Prayers sent Bob Hope you recoup quickly. May I also suggest while your sittng around watching TV you soak that foot in a small tub of warm salt water as much as you can. Growing up with a contractor for a father I stepped on lots of nails and sometimes they even got infected. Soaking in salt water always cured them.

    Monday the doctors removed the breathing tube from my father, to see how well he can breath on his own. Tues morning I knew my Mother would be at the hospital, and so I called the ICU unit who patched me through to my Mother in My Fathers room. While talking to her she held the phone for my Father and we actually had a clear conversation. Dad is far from being out of the woods yet, but being able to actually converse with him sure goes a long way to boosting your hopes and beliefs that he will pull through this.

    Best way I found for keeping gloves dry, is not to wear them. this method has worked for me for 50 years.

    Don't you have to get them to run first

    I would still use the relay with separate power source, and just use the wire from the existing horn to trip the relay. By running the whole thing off the horn wire you are increasing the load carried by the switch. The greater the load on the switch the more arching you get across the contacts in the switch. Over time this will shorten the life of the switch.

    A lady goes to her priest one day and tells him, 'Father, I have a problem. I have two female parrots, But they only know to say one thing.' 'What do they say?' the priest asked. They say, 'Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?' 'That's obscene!' the priest exclaimed, Then he thought for a moment..... 'You know,' he said, 'I may have a solution to your problem. I have two male talking parrots, which I have taught to pray and read the Bible... Bring your two parrots over to my house, and we'll put them in the cage with Francis and Peter. My parrots can teach your parrots to pray and worship, And your parrots are sure to stop saying... That phrase... In no time.' 'Thank you,' the woman responded, 'this may very well be the solution.' The next day, She brought her female parrots to the priest's house.... As he ushered her in, She saw that his two male parrots were inside their cage holding rosary beads and praying.. Impressed, She walked over and placed her parrots in with them... After a few minutes, The female parrots cried out in unison: Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?' There was stunned silence... Shocked, One male parrot looked over at the other male parrot and says, 'Put the beads away, Frank, Our prayers have been answered!
