Consoles.. Peasants haha. It would be nice if I dealt with 720. I aim for 1080 as much as I can. 42 minute TV show can reach 4 gigs. Thank you bright house for not having data caps.

 

AT&T came around again the other day trying to peddle their direct TV and Internet crap. I told her until AT&T gets rid of their caps I won't even consider them, plus this is Florida satellite is useless. She did say she liked my door bell. However I doubt she knew it was playing Dixie.

 

Do you really have AMD stock? That was one of the companies I was going to invest in once I get all my other stuff settled. Just for s&gs because "AMD is for poor people."

I own only 150 shares of AMD. They are making a comeback. Share price gained 1.37 today. And broghthouse is fast, but not as reliable as i would like. And i do not have desktop need. If i did, i wouldnt mind an AMD chipset, i know my graphics card will be AMD

I think everything I own right now is AMD. Might have 1 old nvidia gpu but I think that was in dad's PC which isn't running and is in pieces. I need some thermal paste so I can take that quad core and replace the dual core in my media pc. Next build will be Intel unless whatever AMD announces this year doesn't tank, it's time to jump ship. I hear that a lot about brighthouse but it's reliable for me, I wouldn't mind having the 300 megabit line but 200+ works well enough. If I can get all my stocks and dad's stocks transferred into my trust w/o pulling my hair out I'll probably toss a few hundred bucks towards AMD stock. Then again from what I can find AMD doesn't pay dividends so I might pass on investing with them after all. I "need" to invest in some other companies as well, just have to sort crap out first.

I bought on the speculation of the new consoles and the Zen architecture a couple months ago. Dividens dont mean much. It was bought as a pump n dump. Just waiting for the new consoles now to bump that price

I do long term investing. Too much hassle for me to buy and sell all the time. Dividends is one of the reasons I'm mad at bank of America. I don't expect everyone to pay out 70 something cents a share like UPS does but 1 measly penny grrrr.

I dont have much room under the crescent wrench. And the dumb ac delco inner rod only has 1 pickup point for the wrench to grab onto. The new Moogs have them all around.

After borrowing the inner tie rod end removal kit I still can't get past this. I don't know if it's because it's too tight or a mid of that plus the rounding out of the flat contact areas. I think my last resort will be the pipe wrench.

Out delivering today I saw 3 Maseratis, 1 Tesla, 1 60 something Corvette, a Ferarri, and on the way back to the building saw some poor guy on the side of the road with his driver's front brake sitting on the pavement. Ripped part of his fender back and left a nice gouge in the pavement. Looks like he was "lucky" enough to not be on the road when it happened, maybe realized and pulled off into an entrance just in time? Pretty slow day for "exotics."

My problem is that i dont have a good grip on the inner tie rod end, and that it's been on there for 237k miles.

 

I'm at my whits end with this right meow., I've wasted so much time getting nowhere.

Got my hands on a Shield Ported 9mm at Bass Pro, couldn't feel a difference from my Shield 9mm, although I obviously didn't get to fire it. Looks cool though!

 

 

I know this is vague, but does anyone know the name of a guy that supposedly bought a company, fired 13(or something) floors of middle management and there was zero negative effect on the company?

 

I heard a co-worker talking about seeing it online (a documentary I think) and forgot the name.

If I remember right the shield pro or whatever they are calling the ported model is ported (obviously lol) and I think they changed the trigger slightly. Other than that it's a regular shield.

I have no idea what so ever how in the hell I thought I had any chance of making that tub go on that cart.

I went to the post office a few years back and picked up 118 lbs of lead ... on my '74 RD350. The postmaster called me, because she couldn't even lift one box to move it off their cart, lol! You should've seen the look she gave me when I told her I was putting both boxes on a bike - a small bike at that. :D

Is that a rack & pinion I'm seeing? Thought they didn't start that until '07 ...

 

Heat helps alot. With the old school ones, I always replaced the inner, outer, & collar all in one shot, just to avoid this debacle, since they're always welded solid with rust. With a rack, that's a different ball game. First steering rack I've ever touched in my life was last August in our Volvo 940. Zero experience in that area.
