    2-3 slipping question

    You will likely get an O/D light in the future. Ford kept telling me that they couldn't replicate the problem. When the O/D light did come on, it was too late and the gasket had blown.

    Good fight

    Sweet. Looked like a mismatch with the dominance of your guy. As an instructor, do you recommend going through the ranks of a traditional art before jumping into MMA? I've been debating on whether to commit to training. Currently self disciplined in a variety of arts.

    Popping sound, it's continuous...

    After reading more about cat converters, I think it's a possibility. My mpg's have went down over the last couple of months. It sounds like someone is throwing a rock and it is hitting the underside.

    Popping sound, it's continuous...

    This is the best was that I can explain it. Do you ever hear a popping sound coming from under the Trac, or any vehicle for that matter, after you have parked and it is cooling off? That sound has become continuous in my Trac. It doesn't matter if I'm idling cold, driving (accel and decel), or...

    New Homerun King

    I'm glad for the guy. That's a great accomplishment for anyone, even if he used steroids or not. As Jenn D mentioned, it still takes coordination to hit the ball and he has done it consistently over the years. His record won't last as long as Aarons did, but he broke it, will add more to it, and...

    CRT Televisions

    I bought a 32" JVC CRT TV back in 1999 for $200. It still performs like new but is heavy and bulky. I wouldn't put that much into a CRT with the prices of LCD's and plasma these days. Spend a little more and be happy.

    Computer problems

    As JD mentioned, try it with only the mobo, memory and proc. I would use the 661FX with the onboard video and alternate memory slots to troubleshoot memory banks. If you are reseating the proc, you might want to clean and re-apply grease. The only time I've ever had a problem like this it was...

    Computer problems

    My first guess would be the processor. Did you use grease? Too much, too little? Since you've been able to try 2 mobos, I would think that is your problem. When you used the mobo with onboard video, did you have the ATI slotted?

    OT: Stranger in a strange land

    Tom- Not sure about income taxes in Germany? I was referring to high sales taxes. I do know that Belgians pay high income taxes because my coworkers complained;).

    OT: Stranger in a strange land

    Americans would never allow ~18-23% sales taxes like in Europe. Imagine a 10% federal tax added on to the existing taxes in order to fund rail systems and free secondary schooling. Would citizens go for it?

    Just thought I would share. The wife gave birth to my second son Andrew on July 13. He was 8lbs even and just shy of 20 inches. He is 5 days old in this pic. [Broken External Image]:

    More Computer Help

    It won't hurt to have air pulled in with another fan. You can have a 50/50 split of fans pulling in/blowing out. I would suggest something like 40in/60out especially if it's in a cool environment. Try to eliminate air flow obstructions in the case by zipping wires, etc... As mentioned, dust...
