NP for the jackstands, just let me know when your done. And thanks for takign care of that "scratch" lol.

Who uses digital cable and a DVR in the age of Netflix? Between that and surfthechannel.com, really isn't much need for TV these days.

I remember the "old days", when you wanted to watch a show, you made time to watch it. If I had a DVR, there would be a couple shows I would program it for. That being said, I will never own one. That's prolly why I dont watch much tv. I did watch the Saints game tonight, it was a close one. Goofy *** kicker really kicked an ugly one, but it counted

The sole reason I wanted the DVR is so I can watch Jeopardy every day. Love that show.

I've been so poor for so long that when I actually had direcTV I never watched it because I was so used to occupying my time with other things.

Ooooooo. I wanna see more pics!

I pulled the yard rake around Sunday and picked up a whole bunch of leaves. I've covered them with a tarp, and as soon as we get some rain, I'd like to have some people over for bratwurst, beer, burgers, and bonfire.

I just looked at the weather channel though, and it may be a while.

That stock torque arm aint gonna hold up to a 9 inch abuse. You gonna need an upgrade Little perk of having a 6 speed. Autos can *** rape with 10 bolts.

Not completely true. I have a stack of high 1.5 slips on a stock T/A, stock driveshaft, 10 bolt in 4 different 6 speed cars. 3 broken 9" but never broke a driveshaft, t/a or a 10 bolt.

But I do know several people who broke all the above on totally stock cars. Weird how much better some stock pieces seemed to be over others. Scott, remember Dan killing axles, pinions, ring gears and every other piece in a 10 bolt?
