You want to know why my family wasnt well off when I was growing up because the economy took a huge dive in the early 80's and my dads successful construction company was able to stay a flaot for a few yrs but then went bankrupt due to too many companies not paying, the lil fortune that the company had was paid the employees so he wouldnt have to tell the 45guys (peak # of employees) that they werent getting paid, we lost our house and acerage so my dad could pay those families. So put a filter on that mind mouth thing. But i think its cool that your parents handed you the silver spoon, but my parents can appreciate what a dollar is worth and made me work for everything so I could to.

My rant....Zumbo

My parents dont hand me anything. I work at walmart, and am in debt. cool eh?

I didn't really wanna know why your parents didn't buy you a car. I can tell you stories too.

Pretty much all i stated was....Stop being jealous of kids who had cars bought for them..pretty simple.

Went to the Matt Good concert last night and was thoroughly impressed. He plays a mean acoustic guitar and sounded better live than on cds imo.

netfreak 11-13-2007 04:42 PM

looks like there were some problems with the railroad crossings. they were flashing constantly down by the highway and was also blocking traffic up on spall... no trains...

i like how when you do online banking and you transfer money within the same bank or even the same account from one account to another accont, line of credit, loan, or credit card...

the money comes out of you're account instantly, but takes like 3 days to get to where you want it to end up.

dtt1167 11-16-2007 06:18 PM

^ mines only delayed when it goes to my visa... and thats because of visa's processing times...

underscore 11-16-2007 11:20 PM

mines instant, at least within the same organisation.

Delerious 11-17-2007 12:28 AM

mine's instant for the most part, aside from places like ING and stuff... it says 'instant' withdrawl, but it took over a day for the cash to clear for me....

are you talking about the money not being there to spend or that it just doesn't show the transaction in the history? I know when I put money on my visa the money is available right away but the transaction won't show up in the history for 3 days

Subject: Why Men Don't Write Advice Columns


Dear Mike,

I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a mile down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in the bedroom with a neighbor lady making mad passionate love to her. I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years. When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he went into the back yard and heard a lady scream, had come to her rescue but found her unconscious. He'd carried the woman back to our house, laid her in bed, and began CPR. When she awoke she immediately began thanking him and kissing him and he was attempting to break free when I came back. But when I asked him why neither of them had any clothes on, he broke down and admitted that he'd been having an affair for the past six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him. He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore. Can you please help?

Sincerely, Susie Fox


Dear Susie,

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the clips holding the vacuum lines onto the inlet manifold for air leaks. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber . I hope this helps.

Mike

ahh, first snowfall. took the car out so i could buy smokes. discovered my car is an epic failure in this weather. top of the hill in the wilden area, had to slide my car up over the sidewalk and onto a section of rocks to get the damn thing going forward again. shit....

RRxtar 11-26-2007 09:16 PM
