  1. The news just isn't trustworthy. Kinda sad.
  2. By the speed chart 14/41 gearing 20 inch tires 8500rpm 68.8mph 9000rpm 72.8mph 9500rpm 76.9mph
  3. I say find the guy run him over then swerve to miss him hit a light pole and collect insurance. Two birds one stone. You had me going.
  4. Looks good, now if I could figure out what I want to buy....
  5. I'm in on that.
  6. Sounds like your in the ball park with that speed. You didn't say what size tires though. As far as my Banshee it's faster than everybody else I ride with and that's all that matters.
  7. Maybe he could create a job for someone and pay them to put their foot in his mouth.
  8. I plan on the Quicksand for myself. It'll also match the arms I already have.
  9. Hey Meat, I've got another one for you. http://www.washingtontimes.com/national/20...22637-6257r.htm THURSDAY // WASH TIMES: Russian special forces troops moved many of Saddam Hussein's weapons and related goods out of Iraq and into Syria in the weeks before the March 2003 U.S. military operation, The Washington Times has learned. John A. Shaw, the deputy undersecretary of defense for international technology security, said in an interview that he believes the Russian troops, working with Iraqi intelligence,
  10. In the last week before the election, ABCNEWS is holding on a videotaped message from a purported al Qaeda terrorist warning of a new attack on America, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. The terrorist claims on tape the next attack will dwarf 9/11. "The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead. Further claims: America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam by destroying the Taliban and making war on Al Qaeda. http://www.drudgereport.com/abct.htm
  11. Anybody see this? The terrorist claims on tape the next attack will dwarf 9/11. "The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead. Further claims: America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam by destroying the Taliban and making war on Al Qaeda.

  12. This email I received explains tax cuts. Tax cuts - How they really work: Sometimes Politicians can exclaim; "It's just a tax cut for the rich!", and it is just accepted to be fact. But what does that really mean? Just in case you are not completely clear on this issue, I hope the following will help. Tax Cuts - A Simple Lesson In Economics This is how the cookie crumbles. Let's put tax cuts in terms everyone can understand. Suppose that every day, ten men go out for dinner. The bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh $7. The eighth $12. The ninth $18. The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. So, the ten men ate dinner in the restaurant every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. "Since you are all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily meal by $20." So, now dinner for the ten only cost $80. The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So, the first four men were unaffected. They would still eat for free. But what about the other six, the paying customers? How could they divvy up the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share'? The six men realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being 'PAID' to eat their meal. So, the restaurant owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay. And so: The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings). The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% savings). The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% savings). The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings). The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings). The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings). Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to eat for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. "I only got a dollar out of the $20," declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man "but he got $10!" "Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than me!" "That's true!!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!" "Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!" The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night the tenth man didn't show up for dinner, so the nine sat down and ate without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill! And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The ones who get the most money back from a reduction are those who paid in the most. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up at the table anymore. There are lots of good restaurants in Europe and the Caribbean.
  13. Meat, Read these http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/10/26/...ives/index.html http://www.drudgereportarchives.com/data/2...23804_nbcw6.htm An embeded reporter with NBC was with the first men at the installation and claims there were no explosives when they got there. The missing explosives were talked about april 2003 on NBC. Nothing new.
  14. I can see where that's hard to believe since (I'm assuming) not too many people try to shoot that far and probably don't practice it. I'm going to be checking the sights on my guns possibly this weekend my muzzle loader, 30-06, 12 gauge and possibly my AK, everything but the 12 gauge will be going over 200yds if I had a handgun other than a 22 ruger I'd probably try it.
  15. You might also want to invest in a chain press tool, they are only about $15 but can save some serious time and swearing when you go to press the side plates on to install the clip. I pressed mine last time and installed the clip by hand just slid right on. Here's the link to the one I have but for some reason it's $10 dollars more than what I paid. Shop around and you should be able to locate one cheaper. http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_cata...leafCatId=41805
  16. Maybe there is a good reason why the YFZ is harder to find and doesn't need to lower the price. I'm interested to know how you like it too.
  17. Get a plate for your filter so you can toss the lid off your airbox. Noss sells them watch for the link at the top of the page.
  18. DID makes a good X-Ring ATV chain. That's what I use. Yes it's a good idea to replace the sprockets with the new chain otherwise you'll get increased wear on the new chain. Sprockets are pretty cheap and changing the chain is a great time to try something new. Make sure you order enough links, I recommend ordering extra and cutting it down. Too short is worthless and it'll take time if you have to return it.
  19. I run the DMC 916's and love them for my kind of riding (woods, mud, pasture, beating anybody around in a drag{I'm the only Banshee though}) but if you really want to dune then I probably wouldn't get them you'll want more top. Personally I'd get a Set of T5's or Pro Circuits.
  20. This is where the saying "who's your daddy" really hits home. Why tease everybody? Enlighten us further. Great Link. Can't quite see what my county was though.
  21. Is that all you could come up with? Brooke or KGL are going to have a hayday. I don't have the time. Good Luck.
  22. I'm partial to the red/white gold rimmed '87, the original Banshee.
  23. That's were a $10 AK47 and a couple of spare bullets would be considered an investment in the neighborhood outreach program. Praise the lord I agree with Holyman. $.08/bullet relatively cheap for the damage they do.
  24. Since I consider myself pro choice, explanation you have the choice to have sex an accept the responsibility. My view on abortion is that it's wrong with the exceptions of rape and incest. In these two circumstances that are exceptions the woman or girl involved didn't have the choice. On stem cell research Bush is the first president to allow federal funding of embryo stem cell research, although it is limited funding. There is no ban on this research it can be privately funded as much as willing. http://www.slapthecandidate.com/
