this really pisses me off.....
****CLICK ON THE PHOTO TO EXPAND IT FOR DETAIL****
Seems Yahoo had the common decency to remember our honored members of our armed services,a simple symbol that spoke volumes in my humble opinion....
note pic I screenshot above....
nothing from google,not even a "thanks"
ALSO note the "globalist lovefester's" at google chose to ignore them..in time of WAR,weather you agree or DONT agree,you always back your troops,you cannot separate our guys are in the suck,and give them that common courtesy,to at least THANK THEM one day a year.
also note that pic I screenshot for confirmation of that minor factoid....nada,nein,nicht,squirt,bupkiss,dry run,zero...not a whit
and they come up with all kinds of loopy fringe artsy pukes I really dont care about on their homepage to acknowledge their "birthdays",mothers day,fathers day,fricking EINSTEIN....our active and past military?
"nah,aint worth a bit of html..it's too much trouble"
they cant even recognise for one day they people who made it POSSIBLE to enjoy that ability?
this is beyond disgusting..
note pic...
be sure to email them and let them know how you feel....
Most Especially for our Armed Forces....THANK YOU

Hoo Boy here we go again/Why I drive Honda's and Toyota's
ok..the big three can make a kick ass car....the NEW Vette 604Hp/Mustang 500GT KR 540 Hp/a sweet modernized Dodge Challenger Hemi 425Hp....wow.
then....well then there's the crap they make and think we'll buy,just cause it's " 'merican made"
2005-2006 Ford F-150/Lincoln Mark LT has a major recall item, a "brake hose" is making almost 700,000 Trucks potential
"I cant stop" mobiles.....great , a three valve 300Hp v8 three ton truck with non power brakes.
just..."sheesh", to think after the kaa frickin zillion millions of miles of testing, this problem...NEVER came up,not once???
I need to insert here why I'll never buy a new ford,aw hell...I just wont buy Fords.
It seems back in the early seventies they were making a potential exploding automobile, this "car" (land mine) was known as the PINTO, the hatchback has the issues. they also produced a station wagon and was however fairly safe....slow,ugly,but safe
however the Hatchback was a four cylindar, rear drive , smaller sized car that was made to address the gas shortage of the time in question....great idea, but.....
well, seems that the car had a major concern , a moderate rear impact would shove the gas tank towards the rear axle , then break the tank open, create sparks... then as if you didnt already get it, light off with the gasoline cooking all the inhabitants of the car to death...oh yeah,that's : "a better idea"(old sales pitch line from Ford)
Ford could've fixed this....$70.00 per car for a steel shield to make the impact divert AWAY from the gas tank,and then not leak fuel in a rear impact collision to that pinto. (this is about 200.00 in today's dollars and that would be a generous number, to ford)
but Ford didnt.....THEY DID NOT FIX ONE OF THESE POTENTIAL FIREBOMBS.....
hell, no...it "cost too much"
instead?
they looked at the insurance accident rates, "figured' that it was 'cheaper to pay the death benefits, versus the retrofit of the car as a whole production figure"
Translation;they gambled with the lives of, and killed people , all in the name of profits. also note with the internet,you can look this up and find out... I'm... not... lying... their.... scumbags... for... doing... that
Disgusting,
I found out about this year's ago and decided then,there, and more then likely for my entire lifetime.
no Fords....ever, will disgrace my property.
I wont play party to people with such callous disregard for another persons life, just for profit.
My Rides;
Toyota..
1995 Toyota Corolla (157,000 miles),
no not this car..this is a representative picture
to date, my daily driver car has asked for not a whole lot of new parts.
the usual run of the mill: battery, struts, brakes , tires, oil, gas....and a remanufactured starter.
that's pretty much it, the starter STILL worked, just took a couple of dozen key turns to engage,but when it finally engaged..it started.
Honda..
1995 Honda Del Sol Si
a pretty not very noticeable RED Del Sol...
well not to me at least , who's not making cars red at this point?
I've ducked a cop or two when they tailed me,
"just to see if I was speeding in a red sports car", guess it's the cost of being in a "cop bait color".
cops dont worry me...too many tickets and fines paid to worry about a non jailable "offense".
it's the PART THIEVES I live in mortal fear of...
the 1992-1995 Honda Civic is so universal that the go fast parts on some,
fit all of them, Honda makes almost everything interchangeable..
especially the neat Japanese only stuff.
DelSol I have is an Si,
(Sport Injection,the better then stock versions,from honda),
so I have a engine that parts of it are desireable to the tuner crowds.
some backround knowledge.....
when Honda made a real drivers car (Besides the NSX)
it was the much beloved Integra Type R. the problem though was simply this.
it was so much of a fount of goodies (engine/transmission/suspension,wheels,interior),
some insurance agencies wont touch them at this point,they are that much on thieves wanted lists.
also their fairly rare birds as well....
shame really,they're great cars, were built for, and by the road racing enthusiast's.
1985 CRX Si
which has yes...rusted , but the drivetrain?
this runs better then some new cars, still hangs with newer six cylindars and much improved technology that eclipsed the old tech with simply sheer road holding ability....
(smoked a yuppie driving a BMW 325i on a cloverleaf, passed him and then left him in the dust)
however,all those "improvements" seem to have removed the driver from the equasion.
and has cost to date?
even after a new floor installed, and fixing the previous owners not too great ghettorific technology....
sub two thousand dollars for a peppy , fun , over grown gocart that has heat,wipers,a radio...
and it eats like a motorcycle.
I fill the eight gallon tank.... maybe, after a few weekends of fun...regular gas too.
people hate when I throw four gallons in and the pump clicks off,the sunroof is open,tunes cranked, and I'm laughing driving away from the gas station,as they keep kaaatunking dollars into their tanks.
2006 CR-V EX AWD....
My G/F has the best of most breeds,would you like a truck that drives like a car,and gets decent gas mileage?
it is averaging in mixed driving at least 20-22MPG..not too bad for a truck.
get one..
the AWD rocks,we had two feet of snow,drifting powder..no problem,drove right through it.
Ice?....the stability system flat out rocks(set a litle low for my driving style,turn it off...you'll notice immediately).
it has very good interior room , adults simply fit, the A/C will freeze you out,the radio is decent for a midlevel truck , cassette AND CD(XM OFFERED AS AN OPTION),excellent handling for a "truck"..more like a "CUTE-UTE"
More car posts to come later,this just caught my eye...

more to come.....
to absent companions,hoist one
Black on black...Hmmmmm cute,I'll try that for a spell
Well, ya finded moi....
great talent you have,
I'm kinda well hid,
I gotta start somewhere's,
so this is the first entry...
Plus's....
Loyalty,persuaviveness,tenacity....
(aw hell,I'm a gun dog)
Negitive's;
Lot's...
I need to seek the christian faith for redemption..
(shocked?, dont read further,I'll just piss you off...
we all could use a bit of Grace to better ourselves,and I dont mind saying so)
Like's: Guns,Knives,Cars,Females,critters,books,techno goodies,tools,fabricating stuff,welding, good food/cooking, and I especially enjoy making liberals lives a complete and utter chaos in their mechanisations,and methodologies
Dislike's:Liars,Liberals,Newsmedia(with glaring exceptions of talk radio),corparate structure,CEO's,NWO's,NEO CONSERVATIVE'S(what ever that is, when parlanced by liberals) , I especially detest conspiracy theorists using crap information, or flat out lies to further their mindnumbed idiocy,and attempts to sucker in the people who'll listen.
POLITICS:
I Vote...I dont like my choices always but I get out there and pull that damned lever...
I for one think politics is a shell game....
PJ O'Rourke said it best in his book:"Carnival of Whores", they are all pigs gathered at the same trough...
it's like the old joke:
one lawyer makes a sorry living in a small town,
two can sue each other all day long, then celebrate together in the bar that night...
(note; I'm a staunch registered libertarian...I dont play games with either major party) ,
and in so doing, I gave up my primary voting rights (my state is maryland "people's republik,in the grand tradition of the Weimar,it is scared of free thinking people who can choose their own path.)
translation; as inept and as shortsighted as only liberals can be, I only live here from laziness and the wish to be with the woman I love, she also has a huuuge family here in Maryland, otherwise,I'd be rolling as Horace Greely said:"Go west young man....go west"
I read copiously ,Military Fiction/Science Fiction/Survivalism, Guns,Knives,Cars...
hell... even better,Futurisitic Military Science fiction,with guns,knives,and cars.
(I'll include book lists at a later date and include favorite authors)
no book shall be blown off as unworthy, until read from cover to cover
Music....ahh tunage,I have a required "listening blog" that can be seen at my "you tube account",the "required" is a joke son...just a joke.
Note; this is an ecletic mix of;
movie themes dance,rap,house,metal,rock,thrash,bluegrass,80's/90's classic's,
and anything else I found that was fun,and I enjoyed,or remember fondly growing up...
one rule,and one rule only...
you must crank that sucker up... annoy your kids for a change... heh heh heh
my entire playlist is on the "favorites button"
look here http://www.youtube.com/profile_favorites?user=nature223
also,feel free to join youtube and link to me as a "friend",I am always open to new music...and the coolest thing is the world wide web makes fiding the cool old stuff we grew up on is now back in vogue....
ahhhhh the eighties, it's like fun times all over again
My typo'ing skills and speeling is completely obvious as to it's lack of inherent abilty,I pretty much spew forth and hope for the best outcome....
I will also find and archive those who I thought was eff'in marvolous people and save their workls on other places online....I'll now sign off with those classic words I now deem as my fare thee well.
