    Looks like Romney & Obama

    The 11 percent in Texas was just the popular vote. Ron Paul actually won all of the delegates. All of them. Even the ones who think they are for Romney. It was difficult at first to tell who won the delegates, what with everyone in the room yelling, "Point of order! Point of order!" without...

    Raising Arizona

    I thought GBTV.com was the Gay-Bisexual-Transvestite channel. No? Oh, Glenn Beck! Yeah, that's the one I was thinking of. Never mind.

    Raising Arizona

    You picked up on that, too, as other have. It's a well written piece, cleverly crafted and funny (because it's true, for the most part), but goes off the deep end when the author shows he's an adoring fan of Napolitano, who is just another flavor of wacko herself. One quick look at her stance...

    "LATE" delivery?

    Transit times are figured on X-MPH, but anyone who has driven from Philly or Wilmington to York knows that all bets are off when going through Lancaster via 10 or 30. You're lucky if you can average better than 30 MPH. You've got to let dispatch know that right up front when you take the load...

    And yet a cracked, worn, or broken rubber seal under the cap will cause a pressure leak despite the cap being on. The key phrase is "closed loop". If the seal is bad, it ain't closed. It won't necessarily be a coolant leak, but rather a pressure leak. Is this stuff truly not common knowledge...

    Some Gave All, So This POS Could Say this....

    We do that a lot. Opinions and freedom of speech are sacrosanct in the USA, until we disagree with it. Then it's die you POS idiot, die.

    A new Superhero - fantastic!

    Very cool indeed. On the flip side, you have this: Marvel Comics Hosts First Gay Wedding in 'Astonishing X-Men' | Culture News | Rolling Stone Jean-Paul Beaubier, aka Northstar, a Canadian with piercing blue eyes and silver-streaked black hair who can move and fly at superhuman speeds, will...

    Mattresses

    Mine's a 6-inch standard foam mattress with a 3-inch memory foam topper laid on top. I had the 6-inch foam mattress made for me by a local upholstery place, 30 inches wide, then cut the memory foam to match. I cover it with a sheet and then sleep in (or rather on) a sleeping bag. It's on a...

    $1.25 Billion dollars and it's total poopoo

    I'll grant that you are familiar with the Interstate system in this country. Your expertise with a compass, however, remains suspect. If you check your own compass, and cross reference it with a map of the GW Bridge, New Jersey and the island of Manhattan, particularly if you check your compass...

    Multiple Carrier Cargo Van, Sprinter, Box Truck Drivers

    If you want to discuss some topic other than what the thread is about, start another thread. Question and opinions about some entirely different topic really aren't legit. Hijacking a thread to a different topic is rude and inconsiderate, and shows a lack of common courtesy. It's ironic that the...

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got all that. But what's your point? :D

    $1.25 Billion dollars and it's total poopoo

    Read the links in reverse order. If you have high blood pressure, either take an extra pill, or forgo reading the WABC link altogether. :D

    $1.25 Billion dollars and it's total poopoo

    Cars enrolled in the "Carpool Plan" (3 or more passengers) pay only $3.50 to cross the bridge. The GW Bridge charges tolls only in one direction, east, same as all the other Hudson River tolls. The GW Bridge takes in approximately $1 million in tolls each day. Combined, all six bridges and...

    Multiple Carrier Cargo Van, Sprinter, Box Truck Drivers

    Amazing isn't it? The questions asked in the Topic Post seemed so straightforward, simple, easy, well defined and unambiguous - numbers from people who are doing the same thing you are doing. One would think that those who aren't running for multiple carriers would have no answers at all to your...

    Yes, that's exactly right. They also fought and died so you could have the right to call a fellow American a POS. What's your point?

    7.3 now running hot in the mountains

    In addition to reduced oxygen (which is compensated for the MAP sensor, as has been mentioned), altitude changes atmospheric pressure. At higher altitudes you have lower atmospheric pressure, which affects the temperature at which liquids will boil. Pressure cookers work they way they do...

    7.3 now running hot in the mountains

    Has the radiator been backflushed? Sounds like a clogged radiator. When it running, touch the far side of the radiator, then the other side. If one side is noticeably cooler, there ya go. Flushing and backflushing may do the trick, otherwise it'll need a new one. Also check the fan clutch...
