  1. Congrats on your 100th birthday, Capriceman, what's behind the longevity?

  8. Have you guys heard about the mountain lion that attacked an elderly couple hiking in the Redwoods in northern California? This blew my mind since that area looks more like Oregon, damp, with tall trees and ferns. I always thought these animals hung out where it's more parched and scrubby...like the Gold Country parts of the lower Sierra. The man has gotten better but now his condition is worse. I feel really bad for him. I'm holding good thoughts for him. In fact, there was a fatal mountain lion attack in the mid-1990s on a jogger on the outskirts of Auburn, a mere 30 miles east of Sacramento where people swim and raft in the river there. You are supposed to face them straight on. They go for the rear of your neck and head and tend to stalk / attack from behind. I can't believe that these 80 to 120 pound cats are capable of doing this much damage to people that weigh up to twice what they do. Are you afraid of mountain lions, bears, alligators or any creatures in the wild? Any stories? Any sightings? Does your area have them?

  11. 6 - 4 - 3 - these would bother me: "does not shift" or "does not go into gear." My brother had a DCX minivan and it had this problem - 2 times - and VERY expensive. You didn't physically go out there, right? So, I am wondering if any of the V-TEC Hondas presented these problems because of that system.

  13. Isn't hate a strong word? I don't hate anybody. It's just being caustic, so back off - I'm tired of your lecturing as to how I should view or react to any group of people. And it is my opinion that they are not attractive, so I don't choose to patronize them. I give lesbians a WIDE berth - that's the extent of my "hate."Last week, another architect here at work commented much the same way you have. A new intern was sitting there listening to the whole thing. The new guy used to be a bouncer for 4 years. He told me that he learned to size people up in about 5 seconds. He told me he was right 90% to 95 % of the time. I am usually right 90 to 95 % of the time, from my experience. The new guy also said that people are so namby-pamby about "oh, we shouldn't think like this" but then, deep down, everybody does it but won't admit it....I wish I had a dime for all the times you've sized people up in a store, restaurant, etc. as to what their M.O. is/was. I am entitled to my opinion. If you view it as negative, then so be it. And CD/BP, I doubt this qualifies as

  15. Raunchy as he is, I do like Andrew Dice Clay. Steven Wright is weird and funny...and equally weird-looking. I HATE Joan Rivers ... you know that's a major WITCH given the fate of her husband. Oh yes, and how can I forego mentioning the lesbians or likely-to-be lesbians: Ellen, Rosie and Paula Poundstone ... certainly don't like them

  17. Since I've been accused of being philosophical, I have several (so here's my top 5): "Who cares what other people think?" (it took me a while to get here) "He who lives by the sword perishes by the sword." "There's a lot of truth in jest." (so that sexual innuendo isn't so much of a joke, it's probably real) "A bird in the hand is better than two in the bush." "The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender."

  25. Sir, my Dad had one of these as an "extra car" in addition to the Cutlass Supreme. In that model year as well as 1975, this sled came with the following: 250 L-6 (Chevy), 260 V8 (Olds) and 350 V8 (Olds) Four bangers became available when it went to X-body (2.5 Iron Duke L-4 (Pontiac))
