Sorry to get even farther off topic, but I wonder why everyone crys about exporting American jobs, when I know damn well that I don't want to work.

Let's export all the work.

HAH! As both a girl and an English major, it's clear that I am the least mathematically inclined person here.

as an English major you will appreciate this; i was there, i know it's true.

girl in my high school history class gets back her term paper, got a 'D' because a Big Part of the assignment was to use The Formatting Rules for themes, with proper section and paragraph demarcation - she she completely blew off the "use Roman Numerals" part.

she said - through tears - "but we have an old manual typewriter and it doesn't *have* Roman Numeral symbols!"

That is too funny. I suppose I'm just lucky that I read a lot and have been reading a lot since I was four, and I shouldn't take for granted that I know all kinds of extra (and seemingly useless) things as a result of that, but...sheesh. Roman numerals are pretty darn basic, at least as far as counting up to ten goes.

OK, points noted.

I would rather see endless arguments on rear reflectors and hood emblems anyways.

I'm against both of those and the P-O-R-S-C-H-E side stripes (I think they're tacky on a 914).

I never thought I'd say this, but (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) with Alfred
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

They look even worse on a Ghia.

sorry - i'm clueless to help your suspension problem beyond the excellent replies you already got. i could make up something if it'd make you feel better, but once anything i could contribute has already been posted, there's not really much more i can say...

Ayup, that happens. You could have gotten replys like
"Somethin' is broke or worn out. Take it apart and find out.".....something I often think of, but never say. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Now, if you'd asked "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?", there would be any number of opinions.

This thread has the advantage of being total drivel (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
