    Roll Call

    My wife has been to Omaha and I stopped in Omaha very briefly when missed a turn in Council Bluffs back in '99 but I don't think that's what you're looking for...;)

    Oil Pan Replacement

    That's odd--the OEM pan on my '02 PSD is black. Admittedly, I haven't live in places that salt the winter roads heavily, but it looks as good as new.:D

    I'm going to be gone this weekend...

    No problem--one of our piper's brother was there and he took a bunch of pics/video that when we previewed them, looked pretty good. It's good to hear that. If your oldest was cold on Sat, she would have been miserable yesterday since the temp dropped ~15 degrees or so, and the wind/rain...

    I'm going to be gone this weekend...

    Alternate answer: "Yes, if you look down, you can see I wear shoes and socks under my kilt." ;)

    Hard drive upgrade

    Since opening up a laptop is, for the most part, a nightmare (I've done a couple and none of 'em have been fun) you might as well make it worth your time while you're in there doing the upgrade and go with as big of a drive as you can afford. At one point I had the OS install disks I used for...

    boost p.s.i...???

    Have you forgotten about the Torx bolts? Try finding a T-55 driver bit at 7:30 on a Sunday morning--it's a real treat, I tell you...:eek: :rant

    Boyd Coddington & American Hotrodders get stuck at Boneville

    How come? I would agree with you, since he plays quite the ass (although not nearly as much as his obnoxious loudmouth shop manager) on the show but I'm curious why you don't like him.

    Hard drive upgrade

    Even though it's much more time-consuming, you're pretty much always better-off doing a fresh install w/re-installing all your apps but that only works if you have the original OS and app disks. I've got to ask, though, unless you already have the new drive (or are bound by hardware...

    I'm going to be gone this weekend...

    In case anyone give's a rat's arse, I'm going to be out of town (and probably offline) this weekend since my band is going to be HERE. It's the first year I'll be there as a participant, vs. being there as a spectator, and I am STOKED since, from all reports, it's a helluva party and the music...

    Uh oh--think a hub bearing is going out...

    Dunno--I drive from school to home at a pretty steady, slow speed (caught all green lights except for 1 on my way back so I didn't really slow down much). It went away completely when I stopped and got a little louder when I accelerated. It was never loud, so saying "a little louder" isn't a...

    Uh oh--think a hub bearing is going out...

    Never mind--a buddy is going to give me a lift to class and back so the only driving I'd have to do is ~1 mile to the shop.

    Uh oh--think a hub bearing is going out...

    I wouldn't mind a u-joint since they're not terribly expensive to fix, but do you think I'd be safe driving <10 miles tomorrow morning (slowly) since I have to get to class somehow and Maggie (Mrs. JV) can't leave work to cart me around?

    Uh oh--think a hub bearing is going out...

    About a 1 1/2 weeks ago, I started hearing a very intermittent squeaking that sounded like it was coming from the tranny but since it went away, I ignored it and gave thanks I didn't have to break out Mr. VISA to fix it (I don't have an abundance of cash at the moment). Just today, though, on...

    WVO Carnage!!!

    That's yet another reason to be happy I did the CCV mod when my truck was only a month old.:thumbs

    O-Chem

    Where did you go for undergrad? I had a Physics professor at PSU who gave an exam that NONE of the physics grad student T.A.'s could pass--that was an "interesting" course.:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    4x4 options

    Yep--I remember seeing one at the Ford dealer in Bowman, ND in June of '05 when Maggie and I were coming down here to look at houses. It definitely stood out from the rest of the vehicles, given that it was the only truck on the lot with that bright of a paint scheme.:eek:

    O-Chem

    Those courses are the reason why I'm not trying to get a degree out of the CC here, even though when I finish up, I'll have nearly all the core requirements done for two (Biology and Chemistry). I really don't feel like taking English Comp/American History/Public Speaking again since I took...

    Organic Chemistry makes me cry. That is all.

    Power Steering sucks

    Sounds normal to me--I wouldn't worry about it.

    dove hunting results...

    I can tell you, from personal experience, that if you use gasoline and gunpowder to light your charcoal grill (hey, it was raining and we had been hunting all day and were hungry), the grilled dove breasts will taste TERRIBLE.:eek:

    AV software and its LOCK down

    Dr. JV recommends that you consult with his associates, Drs. Jim Beam and Jack Daniels--they are gooooooood at eliminating stress.:D

    AV software and its LOCK down

    He's talking about the fact that he should have bought a Mac and not need to worry about antivirus software.;) :tounge :tounge :D

    Scratches on windshield

    I've heard that a product called "Barkeeper's Friend" does wonders on windshields but since I can't find a place to buy it, I can't vouch for its efficacy...

    Positive feedback

    Maybe two weeks, it was the brew-sponge me who sent it...;)
