So how are all of you in Oklahoma doing? The news up here is talking about nothing but killer storms.

The storms were all east of the OKC metro. We had some crazy winds. 67 MPH gusts with mostly clear sky. There are green leaves all over the place that have been stripped from the trees.

The killer storms aren't here...

Norton is a memory HOG, I can tell when it is running on a computer, not so with AVG. Have you used the latest AVG? I switched to it from Norton 360 after getting a virus on my Vista Computer. I have only had AVG fail me once, and I honestly think nothing would have stopped that bug. AVG will run its scans at a slower pace if you are using the computer. You can't tell it is working in the background.

Typical news. "Kill storms blanket the southwest from OK to ...." Its a state narrow it down a little. Glad to hear all is ok.

I was in eastern ok all weekend. It was gorgeous there too

was nice here to. to nice I had to mow the lawn.

i use panda antivirus. no problems so far. its free.

Nynor had a realyl bad chicken marsala this weekend the mushrooms had to have been cut from balsa wood. never had to chew so hard in my life.

lol! to be honest the mushrooms i grow are much sturdier and tastier than the grocery store version.

I think I could have dried them out and used them to start a small fire.

I bet your mom told you a million times not to exaggerate! ;)

I don't listen to her either LOL.

No really they were just nasty.

By the way Glen I love the Polar bear picture in the random pics thread. Looks like he is pushing the ship as in go back to where you came from.

Early evening drive by....

'sup dudes :D

not much. whats up with you?

The sun is up here.

its been raining all day, here. it is supposed to rain all day tomorrow. then it is nice weather on wednesday, when i am working. rain all day thursday. then clearing up for friday, saturday, and sunday, again just in time for me to be at work. there is my whine for the day.

tomorrow, i am going to the rifle range, regardless, to shoot my black powder rifle. i got some new bullets i want to try. i am thinking about getting the stuff to cast my own minie-balls. the black powder bullets, which are simple cast lead, are up to .70 EACH. that is ridiculous, IMO. my pistol ammunition costs about .40 each for .40SW, if i get the FMJ winchester white box stuff.

anyone here have experience casting lead bullets?

my latest batch of homebrew. please don't judge its appearance, just yet. it was kegged yesterday, this was what wouldn't fit in the keg. it hasn't settled out, nor is it carbonated. i'll take another picture in about a week or two of the same beer:

What is that rain stuff? I hear rumors that water just falls out of the sky in some places but it does not do that here anymore.

If not one here has any exper with lead you might try Jeff Higgins, he is on the board and does that kind of thing.

free beer if you can get past the armed man at the door.

A local restaurant has a sign Free beer tomorrow!

Tomorrow never comes.

Evening guys. I think Beth and I are going to just chill for the evening.

chill'n sounds like a good idea. Setting off for home see you all later.

Ugh.... Stomach still hasn't recovered from the weekend. I've usually got an iron gut too

I've made a momentous decision this weekend. Decided that instead of spending $$ on a couple of trips to 928 gatherings (a LOT of fun) going to spend that monies on cams for the GTS. Cams and valve springs are around $2K and install is 10 hours. Retuning chips for different cam timing is $500. Should net about 50 hp across the entire rpm range. Kinda like the x51 upgrade for the 997.

You blamed that on your backback:D

Nope. ****ty food

Stijn!!
 

Good evening fellas.

Sid:

current plan is that I'm leaving CA on thursday and driving straight to Rolla, I'm probably not going to have time to stop on the way to MO, but will on the way back the following week.

Can you text me so I have your number- I lost all my numbers when I got my new phone so I don't have yours anymore.

Text sent...

Thanks Sidney, but I think you meant to text Mike! :)

Pretty sure it went to Mike...


"Smartass", and "Mike" are pretty far apart in my contacts... :p

Morning Guys!




Well that does sound like it's worth doing.
50 extra ponies.... that will not go unnoticed.

I still need cams for my rebuild too, don't know which ones yet. (964 or 993 supersport profile.)
Do I really need to get my rockers resurfaced and rehardend too?? that is gonna cost me some more...
I'm also wonderiing, with the upgrades I have. (hot wire air meter, sporty cams, SSI's, M&K muffler) I will need a costum chip.
But once my rebuild is ready and installed, it will drive like shyt because the chip isn't set up fr the upgrades.
Do I take it to the dyno and get the chip updated with a not yet broken in engine?? (my giess is they will go thruoght the entire rev range to get the chip setup for optimal tuning) Or do I break it in with an old chip which it will make it drive horribly??
(Maybe i'll start a thread iun the tech section too)

Morning, guys!
