  1. Thanks for the great info on straight talk Old Biker. Hex0rz we do not have any other carrier in the state other than Verizon and AT&T except in certain areas there IIRC are a couple other ones with extremely limited service. A lot of folks come here from out of state with sprint and other carriers phones and rarely if ever get service.
  2. Funny how some laws are, Verizon owns AT&T but because of competition laws they have to remain separate companies..............just doesn't make sense. Hey I like Old fords, fill me in on the details of asking for no line access charge, is this for new or existing accounts?
  3. Good deal, anything under a hundred bucks a tire is a steel anymore no matter what type or size. I go through a minimum of 2-3 tires a year on my pontoon trailer, if I get near 3 seasons out of a tire I am jumping for joy, they are the short wide ones I think 10 or 12 inch can't remember right off and to get them in a 10 ply are about 100 bucks for these small ones even.
  4. I am on the other side of the street on this one, I do not go to Minnesota unless I absolutely have to and the cities area is the worst, if we do travel that way we make a wide swath around the cities area. But I think you may be talking about the eastern side of Nodak though, I find that area unbearable as well since I am from the western side of the state where we have hills and scenery.
  5. Around here Verizon is the main carrier and then AT&T but a ton of people are switching to walmarts Straight talk 100% unlimited plan, you buy whatever phone you want and need a card of some sort as well but then you use both Verizon and att towers as a secondary user. I have not heard of any issues from people using them around here but have had some coverage issues in other places while traveling but it was minor because you share the other carriers towers you are last in line for a spot on the air waves if tower traffic is large. Individual plans that are 100% unlimited as far as usage goes is like 40 bucks a month. I know folks are flocking over to them when their contracts are up from the bigger carriers. My wife and I have Verizon phones and I have the old GZ1 casio that is about 7 years old but when / if it dies I will possibly get my 1st smart phone and go with Walmarts straight talk plan.
  6. I rented that movie a couple of weeks ago and it is a pretty good movie, it was a step away from the high dollar highly fake movies they hemorage out now days, takes one back to real life America.
  7. You are hanging out in the wrong areas or with the wrong crowd if you find things lacking variety, My wife and I cook for flavor and use many spices and seasonings. I for one have never liked ketchup, find it disgusting, it has High fructose corn syrup in it which I avoid like the plaque, We eat as organic and natural as possible. We have many different types of salt and pepper in our cabinet as well.
  8. He wouldn't be related to Steve Earl would he?
  9. Is it wild dug root or store bought? Too early here for finding it yet. It grows wild around my area, I have never made it but have helped friends a couple of times, much like deer hunting sausage making parties this is second most common beer drinking gathering here during the fall/winter. How long do you let it activate "Gets hotter as you wait" after grinding it before killing it with vinegar?
  10. After my 02 having a cab full of gauges I am leaning more towards a single digital unit. Looking at the ISSPRO they look to be electronic gauges anyhow so a single display unit would be best in this case.
  11. Never heard of the TV show and only saw the movie one time and do not know why they named it Fargo, it was based in/on Minnesota / Minnesotans and only ended in Fargo. Really gave our state A black eye that will not heal.
  12. I bought a jar of this in Blueberry last summer to try. You are more of a man than me, only about 2 sips is all I can do an it hits the guts pretty hot. If I sipped down even a shot glass of this stuff I would be done for the day. At the rate I can drink it, should last me about 25 more years.
  13. I may be in the market for a set as well, I have noticed over the last year on my 05 during a cold start it cranks and fires for a second like it is going to start and then either quits instantly or needs to be cranked for 2-3 seconds before firing, seems to be getting progressively worse slowly, But I may try a new set of batteries first as I still have the original factory ones in it yet and it sounds like they are getting weak as it sounds like it doesn't crank quite fast enough which would cause this as well. Other than that no other issues, runs smooth and idles fine and warm starts are no issue pops right up instantly. I am going to bite the bullet and finally order some sort of gauges for it too in the near future but am undecided on what to go with, I really like the dual indicator westach gauges but they don't offer them in the combos I would like to see plus I don't want mismatched set of gauges, I am undecided, and will add a 2 mic secondary filter system to the factory fuel system. 112k on 100% stock fuel system running 7 micron fleet guard and hit and miss 2 stroke. What are the best quality gauges out there now days besides westach? I don't keep up on aftermarket things as much anymore. I doo still like the Edge CTS unit though the most.
  14. More on Dirty harry and tho O admin's China dealings and the fact this goes back to Clinton signing a little known executive order when he was in office that basically in short signed over all of our national federally controlled lands to foreign investors as collateral against our nations debts and this story backs this up now. Some may notice at some national parks that there are United Nations plaques on display if you look and this was part of the federal land sign over that Clinton gave away a huge chunck of our country that the Chinese are coming in and trying to lay claim to now as payment for our huge debt. http://www.wnd.com/2014/04/reid-smelling-anything-but-rosy-in-ranch-fight/ The "Red Dawn" movie scenario is rolling in in a subtle way I fear.
  15. Vegas and the use of water to irrigate full blow desert are the biggest waste of a natural resource in my mind, same goes for most of what is considered farm land in Cali, nothing but desert. I have been through that area and it makes no sense at all to me. Its a shame that the Colorado river dries out hundreds of miles before reaching the ocean like it still did only a few decades ago yet.
  16. Here is a story about that statement. http://grumpyelder.com/2014/04/how-much-of-a-role-does-harry-reid-really-have-in-bundyranch/
  17. Going down a grade like that with a heavy trailer behind pushing I would want 4 wheels braking not just 2. 4X4 low range for me in that instance especially if a bit moist or wet. The only spot I would like a 2wd low kit is during heavy backing situations where most trannies fail by getting deep fried.
  18. Live via U-Stream http://www.infowars.com/breaking-clark-co-sheriff-says-blm-will-cease-operation/ A meeting live between the sheriff and Cliven. The BLM issued a public announcement and the sheriff announced it at the gathering and Cliven drew the line in the sand and requested the BLM turn in all guns and tear down all fee areas within an hour. Now we are waiting. They are returning the area back to public grazing use, hard to hear some of what was said with the crowd noise. They are going to give his cattle back as well. Guess the Dirty harry and his son will be looking for some one elses land to steel to give to the Chinese for their 5 billion dollar solar farm. Or the cleptocrats will wait until it falls off the media radar and do an under handed claim jump again using a different tactic like usual.
  19. In no way shape or form does the constitution give the feds any rights to own or control any piece of land in this country, it is a state issue and the feds should not be involved, if the county sheriff had a pair he would be arresting all of the feds, most people do not know that local sheriffs have more power in this country than any other official fed or not including the president. This is how the founding fathers deliberately set up the constitution. A bit of info to help you understand D4L http://www.infowars.com/blm-action-in-nevada-is-unconstitutional-heres-why/
  20. OH OH, Looks like another dirty Harry Reid secret revealed. http://www.infowars.com/breaking-sen-harry-reid-behind-blm-land-grab-of-bundy-ranch/
  21. OK I never heard of BMS then. Makes sense. DW if the spray pattern of the 03-04 is narrower than the 05-07 and still hits inside the sweetspot in the cup of the piston then no issues. The issue comes when the spray patter hits outside th bowl on the top flat area that causes hot spots and torches throught the aluminum. This is just a guess as to why it would work not knowing exactly what the pray patterns or piston cups are on them.
  22. My flight to Toms neighborhood was cancelled this morning, we are in the middle of a raging blizzard at the moment. Sounds Like Tom will experience the same storm tonight into tomorrow. It's in the low teens right now with 40 mph wind gusts sustained in the mid 20's.
  23. BMS ??? Having a brain fart here at 1 a.m. after a night out with the wife.
  24. The one I was having issues with was an Asus desk top pc. Went to Staples and ordered a Lenovo 535 desk top, AMD A10 5500 processor, 8gig memory and 2 tb hd, windows 8.1, was on sale for 500&change. They can not add Linux because it is free and they are retail store. Added a 2 year extended warranty and added 2 year contract of sophos antivirus protection aswell. Bought a new battery back up surge protector and a new set of speakers as wife a I streama lot of music and wanted better sound than the 2 bitty speakers we had for years. Will have themdo the setuup and have the end of next week hopefully.
