ROFLMAO... that was priceless....

Me (shaking Wolf awake after parking Explorers all over his driveway in the middle of the night) "Dude, there's something you gotta see in your driveway!"

Wolf (groggily): "Huh? What? I have guns, remember that..."


Brennan, go wheeling another weekend damn it! :D

You mean your ghetto truck that has zipties to hold parts together? :D :eek:

Numidian
02-21-2005, 07:30 AM
No zipties...just carriage bolts to extend the sway bar, no bolt in the torque arm, blocks in the front, and the awesome coil springs between the frame and leaf LOL

OMG- Todd, I'm at school sneaking in time on this site while I'm supposed to be doing homework and I just noticed the "finessed!" under your avatar... I laughed out loud and got yelled at by my professor, ya jerk :D :p

(For you who weren't there, I was explaining to Todd how it's all about 'finessing' your truck over the rocks with minimal gas pedal when he stuck his head out Tank's window to have a look... and promptly got sprayed in the face with mud from the tires. Then he looks at me and says, "I guess I just got finessed!")

Oh, and don't pick on Brennan's Un-runner "Rosie" too much, guys- it's actually a nicely built beast once we got all the rice stuff off :D

Now why the hell would I want to do that?! Feh.

Hey, anybody feel like helping me with homework? My assignment is to design (on paper, almost in a whimsical fashion) the 'perfect machine'. I have to state A) Its primary purpose, B) Its usefulness, C)Its relationship with humans and D) Its lifespan (if necessary). I lose points if it's based on any kind of slave-like functions, IE: a robot to go get your coffee in the morning, or a remote controlled Blee zapper. Anyone have any ideas?? :confused:

Hey all. Thought I'd re-introduce myself on this thread since you're all sorta local. Especially the ones in Columbia. I'm really pretty new to taking my rustbucket 4.0 Explorer off the beaten path so I'll be sure and bug all of you with stupid questions a youngster would be expected to have. :D

MONMIX
02-21-2005, 09:47 PM
Hey, ya gotta learn some how.
Come hang out with us, and ask away.

Bumper bracket :confused: bracket a bumper bolts to?
inserting pics... umm duct tape! or the img insert button + having someplace on line to "host" (store) the pictures
or a easyer way, become a elite explorer

ROLFMAO.. Become an Elite Explorer.. You can upload photos to the site for posting or to your own gallery.. You get 25 MB I believe for photos plus the ability to upload videos & other such files.

If it's all right. I'm on my third Explorer - a 99 Sport this time. I sure have learned a lot from the folks here and look to learn a lot more. Don't know if I can make it by 6:00 pm but certainly by 7 or 7:30. Mike

Ages are pretty varried.
I would not let age be a concern.

Every one I have met from here has been easy to get along with.

So how many are we up to ? Or down to ?

You dirty bugger! Lol, I guess that's what we get for not communicating better. It's funny.... while Kev, Bryan, Ben and I were standing around BSing, a lifted Explorer Sport rolled into the parking lot and dropped off his girlfriend (?)... we were trying to get his attention, but he took off. His loss!

I had a good time just chillin', and Greene Turtle's food is always worth the ride ;) Dang it, now I want a Chesapeake Chicken sandwich.

Stastically black jack has by far the best odds for the player wile the roullet wheel has amoung the worst odds.

We went to the tropicana and ceasers palace and both places were packed to the gills. There were absolulty no poker tables available and all of the blackjack tables were pretty full and had 25 buck minimum bets. I just happened to come across a roullete table that wasn't swamped with people and was 15 minimum, so thats where I stayed.
LOL, I never should have stopped. :banghead:
