  1. Aren't jokes supposed to be funny? A bunch of generic, derogatory comments about women in general is not what I call funny.

    Well thats fine to mike, I am still chuckling over some of them. I love the definition of a good girl, that's one of my favorites.

    Please note, I never called you a fag. I merely noted a plausible explanation on why you have such a negative attitude towards women. Which is surprising since Lady Redneck seems like a nice gal and the two you seem to enjoy your lives together. The repeated trash talking seems more suited to a loner who doesn't enjoy the rich life one normally associates with a blessed union with their soul mate, rather the painful lashing out of one spurned.

    Call it whatever you want to, what you posted is still there.

    All good here. Thanks for asking.

    Well that's good news, glad to hear it. Now back to our regularly schedule forum nonsense.
  2. To set the record straight gas here works out at 84 cents per gallon so yeah, mileage doesn't really matter. The instruction I've given to the company thats programming the new PCU for the truck is to give it max performance and don't worry about the mileage.

    In order to compensate for my increased carbon footprint

    Performance is good. I don't worry about other Gore like things.

  3. Final word is if you have Vista and like it, fine by me use it I don't care, but, don't go expecting every developer and publisher to support a lost cause just because you fell for the hype.

    LOL, what hype? I enjoy the Vista OS and find it to be a good buy, if in the future I change my mind then I will purchase another OS and run it. Heck, I already own XP and would be running it right now if it wasen't going backwards. But thanks, your final word is real uplifting. LOL!

  4. I have an acquantance who is an exec at EA and he said Vista was the final nail in the coffin for PC-based sports games for them. Madden 10 was just announced as console only. He said the trend was in that direction, but issues with coding on Vista drove them to make the decision 5 or 6 years early.

    I don't think it is just Vista that is moving games to console.

  5. I don't get a couple of you guys, what is keeping me from purchasing another OS when it comes out if I choose to do so? What's keeping me from installing the XP disc I have right here on my desk? Nothing. Other then then fact I like running lots of RAM with Vista 64. In the future if I want a different OS then I will purchase it and run it or just dual boot. It is that simple. This name calling directed at people who are running and enjoying Vista is child like. And then telling me I should have stayed with XP? What the feck? Why should I stay with XP when I like running Vista 64. If you don't like it then by all means keep running XP or whatever else you prefer just as I at the present time enjoy running Vista. If I tire of Vista then I will install something else. Or is more that if you prefer CMBB over CMAK you are just as dumb as those who prefer Vista over XP or such nonsense?

  6. Got me a performance exhaust ordered for the mighty Silverado today. W00T!

    Nice! for the numbskull *cough* mike_the_wino *cough* a larger exhaust system = more flow = better performance = better millage.

    But actually I don't think fuel millage matters much when gas is about a $1.50 per gallon. A guy at the gas station just says "Fill er up with premium please", I wonder if blue 100/130 avgas is available? These dyas I think they call it 100LL, that stuff will make a motor get up and go! I used to run in in my Street Rod (1937 Ford pickup) and it had some gitty-up with a small block Ford power plant and three deuces. Not as fast as the big blocks out on the highway but much quicker around town.

  7. (ie Abbott), ignorant (Abbott), intolerant (Abbott), or just thinks they are silly (the rest of you).

    [grumbling, grumpy old man]This country is going straight to hell...[/grumbling, grumpy old man]

    LOL, it seems you are the one going a bit overboard there Mike. A few jokes set you off calling me intolerant, ignorant and a Fag. Anyway what ever is bugging you, I hope it works out. I bet if you relaxed a bit you would see that I was just being silly as well. I love the girls Mike, especially the massage-a-nist ones with the honesty symbol tattoo ($$$) just above their hidee-hi.

  8. Compared to the Chieftain it was all three of those things

    The Chieftain could barely get out of it's own way. The M-60 series was a good MBT and some folks under rate it, just as some over rate the Chieftain. Both had strengths and weaknesses. The M-60 could shoot, move and communicate and served 22 Countries.

    Chieftain's engine and transmission was to become it's major problem throughout it's entire life undermining customers' confidence in British armour. None of the modern British tanks was able to repeat Centurion's export success. In fact, none of them sold in any noticeable numbers.
  9. They make great practice targets on ranges around the world.

    So, they entered service almost 50 years ago!

    The M60 is one of the world's most successful main battle tanks with 15,000 having been produced and serving in the armies of 22 countries. The tank has provided proven battlefield performance over four decades and has been continuously advanced and upgraded with advanced weapon control, ammunition, applique armor and increasingly powerful engines. The M60 series main battle tanks of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the USA were deployed in Operation Desert Storm in 1991 during the Gulf Crisis.
