    THIS WEBSITE is changing - want to be involved?

    Our 10 year old software company builds six and seven-figure websites, and sure the VCA could get married to a programmer (or company) and have them build you a completely custom forum... but why re-invent the wheel? The forums we've worked with all provide source code... and a good programmer...

    Unbelievable version of VW commercial!!

    But it's true... One in 167 men (0.6% of the male adult population) are under 3 inches! I thought it was just a myth people joked about, until my wife saw these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropenis http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn6761 (claims 7cm) Oh my God - more than one in...

    Cheap, cheap Viper!

    It sure does look like a rental I drove back in 2001. Column and dash all scratched up, and even the banged up side pipe. Guess it's just coincidence though... Regardless, with just 10k miles... what's with all the scratchs on the dash?

    Re: Help! I can\'t remove my oil filter.. Oh YEAH! - Gotta have a Sawzall! Sometimes this can help too... (Like when I misplaced the key for the Kryptonite lock on my trailer - three seconds, problem solved!)

    Strange sighting

    Late one night I pulled up along side another viper at a red light. They were staring straight ahead, so I hit the horn... and the passenger ignored me! So I laid on the horn! ...and the driver looked around the passenger to see what was up (and saw that I was a Viper too). They rolled...

    Hawaii Vacation Time

    The wife said I can bring my Viper to Hawaii... Not sure if that's good or bad, as managing the "island hopping" could take a lot of the fun out it.

    Off Topic: Kindney stone and Water damaged data center

    Pics will be tomorrow... How could this be related? I get a Kidney stone that lays me up in the hospital on morphine, and at the same time a water pipe breaks at my business and 1,000+ gallons of water later, I have a 5,000sq.ft. building in 1" to 2" of water - including the server room...

    Looking for a Tig welder...

    ab, I picked up one of these a few years ago, and love it: Miller TIG welder It'll work on thick (1/4"+, no problem), and it'll go down to quite thin (sheet metal). (I've even fusion welded razor blades with it, just for fun). It's great on aluminum, copper, and stainless (for my...

    My Viper Days Buddy is Dying - Need to Contact Carroll Shelby

    I found this ironic: Finish Line's raffle for the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation - You'd think they could take care of Dwayne NOW. Danny, tell Dwayne that when my dad was told he had 5 months, he lived 5 years ...and that was in 1975, you just never know (though he did go to UCLA for...

    Chasing a Viper Lady [video]

    JD, you're right! Take One - she not only said "sure" but rev'd the car. Take Two - she smiled as she shook her head, then went to role the window down to talk. The short's goal was to look as corny as possible... so take two stayed! ab, you watch Golden Girls? You must get REALLY bored :smirk:

    FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS OK!

    Re: FACTORY REP FROM DODGE SAYS ALL VIPERS RUN HOT! HE SAYS 260 DEGREES IS California = CAPSCLOWN Here in California they teach "kreative spelling" in our liberal schools. It's all about "doing it your way", not the "right way" (or the "acceptable norm way" for those liberals that think the...

    Who has the most miles driven in one 24 hour period?

    1,724 miles, solo - Return trip from Chicago to just outside Reno (trying to get home in less than 32 hours...) My Uncle currently holds the family record at 32hrs for (approx) 2,200 miles (from Chicago to San Jose), established back in 1975. Being he's 75+ now, I don't think he'll be breaking...

    What member from Texas uses this type of cruise control?

    Original post: "Cruise Control" - March 4th, 2004 My car, my cinderblock - The tough part was getting it in the car without scratching something. As for Texas... what can I say? They say everthing it big in Texas, until you've visited Alaska - Yeah, get this: cut Alaska in half, and you'd...

    Engine running in reverse..

    What's the oil pump doing when the engine is running backwards? (Sucking oil from the bearings, down to the oil pan?) :confused:

    Engine running in reverse..

    Happens occasionally to my RC plane, but then it's a 2 stroke and doesn't have a cam (nor reeds, like on a motorcycle) controlling which direction the air flows... A (non-broken) CARBERATED 4-stroke could never do this... however a DIRECT PORT FUEL INJECTED... that's another story. My guess is...

    Heavy engine noise

    So the noise was the piston "trash-compacting" the parts against the head until they were small enough to blast past the exhaust value? Ouch.
