Also, Sweet Home Alabama fricking blows
For sure overplayed, but an outstanding, generational classic song. There is a reason it is still among the most played songs from that era.

I try to avoid them. I see a propensity for obesity, poverty, a yen for fairy tales, folks putting what few bucks they do have into little wicker baskets being passed around. Anyone who thinks the earth is 6,000 years old is extremely low iq.

Get in on the offshore operations side and perform well at your job and you will have a stable job as long as you want. Stay as close to the wellhead as possible and you will never anything to worry about.
AI can’t work a pipe wrench and is nowhere close to being able to having the level of complex thinking that can operate a process system.

History of nuclear weapon engineering evolution from the beginning until the 70s or so. Everything about all the experimentation and testing in the Pacific is so fascinating to me. Also loved reading about Edward Teller and Curtis Lemay and how they were true madmen.

Who gives a shite it was a worthless protest that did nothing!!!
It is OK to say, "dang they got us this time and we were wrong." Yall are so hypocritical. I bet a lot of the downvoters in this thread were celebrating the initial false report. Just as bad as the other side.

Dr. Strangelove soon after to balance out the doom and gloom.
Love that movie, it is so funny. General Buck Turgidson is so out of control and hellbent on nuclear war. I think he was partially modeled after General Curtis Lemay who in real life was probably as outlandish.
re: Why are new truck prices such an emotionally charged topic for some?

Is it because the truck represents a version of Americana that people hope still exists? Or something else.
It’s because a large majority of people buy overpriced trucks as an attempt to portray their status to everyone. In reality it is one of the worst ways to spend your money.
The emotional charge comes from defending their ill advised purchase that will lose money extremely fast.

I recently read Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobsen
I found her book an attempt to prey on fear of people that know nothing about the history of nuclear weapons. I love reading about that subject, but was immediately turned off by her writing.

What is the actual compression ratio. What cc are the domes? How much timing advance?
I think +4 on the timing. Not sure what CC or ratio it is at. I bought a compression tester and was surprised that it was above 180 on both cylinders. I tried to run pump gas and octane booster in the past and it wasnt cutting it.

What kind of ATV needs 110 octane gas? I'm genuinely curious
Type really doesn't matter, just the compression ratio. Mine is a banshee, with 185 pounds of compression in each cylinder which necessitates the need for high octane fuel.

They have octane boosters at the local auto stores. Durrr
I wish octane booster would do it but need at least 110 octane and I don't think the booster will get there. It is only good for +8 so that only gets to 102.

They have octane boosters and you can get VP racing fuel shipped to you. You don’t do problem solving very well do you?
Yes it can be purchased and shipped for a total of $206. I was just hoping someone might know of a local shop that could sell me a little.

Anyone know here VP racing fuel is sold around central to southern Louisiana? Looking for 5 gallons of high-octane racing fuel for ATV engine.
re: Wheel alignment questions
Posted by aib799 on 5/22/25 at 1:17 pm to Lonnie Utah
Tires aren’t worn yet, but steering wheel is out of whack.
Was only looking for what people had paid recently. I have no issue paying for a diagnosis, but the alignment should be part of the cost to me. To get my alignment fixed shouldn’t cost $260 before tax.
Wheel alignment questions
Posted by aib799 on 5/22/25 at 1:04 pm
Dealership wants to perform wheel alignment diagnosis for $160 and then wheel alignment for $100 if needed.
To me this sounds like a dealership way to tack on increased charges. Should’t this be all part of the same service and cost.
I haven’t had one done in a really long time so have no past history of how it is usually charged. Anyone done this recently?
