what should I do?
it worked on a Macguyver rerun, but he drove a jeep, and had a bad haircut, so if I watch stargate am I a nerd or a dork?this is really academic, since I'm really a nerd and a dork and have never watched more than 17 seconds of stargate.

alright, so I rebuilt my carburator, using nothing but the swiss army knife dad gave me for my 12th birthday, and now the truck won't idle, but does 143 mph in reverse.

If it goes that fast in reverse - it can't be a FORD truck. You must have gotten your hands on a world war two era russian transport somehow - does it run on VODKA?

What was that stand out line from the "DRAGNET" movie with Dan Akroyd?
"We were issued a Yugo - a state of the art example of the latest Serbo-Croatian Technology..." or something like that.
I believe it, by then it could not possibly affect the market any and would seem to be a friendly gesture.

great movie,
how does G.O.B.L.IN. feel toward P.A.G.A.N.
P.S. it appeals to my sense of irony how the guy who started this thread didn't want to become a senior member, and this is the longest thread in at least the first 10 pages of this forum

We are allergic to People Against Goodness And Niceness. The Pagan religion is another story - I don't think we have any position on religious issues, it wouldn't pertain to anything we are looking at quite yet.

Hmm. Sticky issue. I think I'll back off and punt...

Yeah,,, true,, but then there was that in third grade when the teacher came in carrying a kazoo, some peaches and leading an albino platypus on a leash. Never did quite figure out how that varmit got out of the locked tuba case. Of course,, being a third grader,, I wasn't supposed to be privy to such information at that time in my life. Looking back on it,, that was the 534th best Thursday of my life. Can't forget the green jello that was for lunch.
And as far as doing that kind of speed in reverse, drunk, well,,, ya know it don't mean a thing if no one is around to witness it. But I've had the same trouble,, popped the seal on the canneuter valve with can opener instead of the corkscrew. Ahh,, what a hoot that was when I realized what a dumb mistake I made. Even the A-Team laughed. But,, that's the lessons of Life, I suppose
