I think those things eat and have a similar digestive system that is much like cows. I know they re-chew their food at least, anyway. They have both 'roos (as he calls them) and wallabies.... seems like they are closely related, and share a lot of the same attributes - the 'roo is just larger. Probably ought to ask him more about those than I have already, lol. We used to tease the hell out of him about getting a pet kangaroo when he got there. He dated that girl across the interwebs (anyone remember ICQ?) and met her a handful of times before he moved there some 15-16 years ago. Kinda weird... he's adapted to the accent, verbiage, etc. that they use over there, and it makes it a funny conversation.

Mice - For the first time in eight years of living here, i heard one scratching inside the bedroom wall yesterday. One 1.25" hole in the under-stair cubby, wall, one piece of mouse bait, and one blank outlet cover later... no more scratching. I need to go around now and see where steel wool needs to be added around the foundation/wall perimeter.
Yes sir, I'd love one! I'll PM you. Ugggh about the mice! I hate those little bastards.... glad you got it though!! Did you find it? Those can get stinky after a while. If we ever get them at my house, my dog will probably be about worthless. She absolutely hates cats and every other non-human, but she might need to get used to a cat.

Haha, yea , you probably would pick up the accent after awhile. That must sound different when you guys talk lol.

I'd send you a MI plate ASA I get another one. I haven't kept my old plates. I have an old MI plate I keep around from the year I was born. That was a gift from my x- brother in law, he collects them as well. I have to hang to that one. I can't recall exactly where he got that from, I guess there was a place that you could get them from any year at one time.

Well, helping someone move today. Mama talked me into it, or I should say tricked me into it. Man, I really really don't feel like doin this...draggin a**...... Pounding myself for that commitment..a tragedy for sure lol.

Have a good one fellas!

Got your PM, White. I'll need to see if I have something to send it in so the post office might not bend it up.

I was stationed in North Dakota and it was years afterward before I no longer sounded like a Canadian (about / a boat).

Good Morning Bear, and Happy Birthday!

I started digging out my old stereo stuff.... I hung on to all of it so I could put it in a garage someday. This old thing is a Sony STR-D311 that I bought way back in 1993.... it was my graduation present to myself. Hell... maybe my parents even bought it, I dunno... that was 28 years ago. Anyway... I have that sub and a couple bookshelf speakers (looking for two more) that I'll run with it. The sub and speakers I have are much newer than the receiver, however. I used to push a couple of 15 inch Crunch's (4 ohm) with this thing, and it performed magnificently. I believe the rating was 4 X 70 W @ 8 ohms.

Anyway... this will surely help the neighbors listen to my music.




Well, this is just great. I ordered SVO brakes for my 89. They were supposed to be here Friday. Now this says they are in Salt Lake. Problem is, I don't live in Salt Lake anymore.

I know this will add some power. Adds 500 RPM in just sitting in the box.
