    Just remember that green is on the bottom and red is on top.
  2. Bangkok Dangerous is a title that should have been saved for porn. I detest Nicolas Cage, so I didn't expect much from the flick. Wouldn't you know it, I didn't get much from it. It's not worth spending the $$ on renting.
  3. That is the problem with our local association. No accountability, no required yearly training. When I cross the state line into TN, the officials get better. They are at least consistent.
  4. How are they in your area? The state of officiating in this area is at it's lowest point in 20 years. Went to a game tonight, the two older officials spent the entire second half making sure they were able to influence the game. I've never seen such inconsistant officiating in the 20 years I've been watching high school ball. They worked both the girls and boys games tonight and were equally bad in both. One seemed to not understand the 5-second closely guarded rule. One seemed to not understand the rule against traveling. One seemed to think that only those in white shirts were capable of committing a foul. It's almost to the point where I'm considering not even attending games.
  5. I wish I could combine a MG foot control with a MK shaft and LU.
  6. I let them air dry on a Kimwipe for an hour or so, then blow dry with canned air. I've got a set of laboratory forceps that hold the bearing by it's hub. Acetone evaporates very quickly. If I had to guess, I would say most bearings are dry in 15-20 minutes.
  7. I just wish I had a boat for that lake. If I did, I'd be up there fishing that tournament. The Elites don't own the lake.
  8. You must change the channel a lot. Since the merger, XM has been chock full of commercials. Last time I'll renew my sub.

  10. The good thing about acetone is that it evaporates almost instantly. Makes it easier to dry the bearings before re-oiling. I tried using 91% isopropyl alcohol, but found it didn't do a very good job.
  11. I've found acetone to do the best job. I'll replace it 3-4x over the course of 10 hours.
  12. Calcutta 100. Frame size is smaller. The 200 is comparable to a Abu 5500.
  13. Casting light stuff is more about the rod than the reel. The reel helps a lot, but the rod makes a big big difference.
  14. Take a look at the Canons. Don't know what your budget is, but the Rebels are under $1000, the 40D is around $1200. If you're not sold on a true dSLR, then give this one a look. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10669034 The only difference between one like that and a dSLR is the ability to change lenses. I can do just as much with my Powershot A720 as I could with my old Canon SLR. IMO, unless you're making money with the camera, the dSLR's are overkill for the average user. It is much easier to carry a smaller camera and use it. My Fuji S5000 was just a bit smaller than my Canon SLR and while I took over 20000 photos with it (over four years), it was a pain to carry around. When the time came for a new camera, I went smaller rather than larger. Easier to carry when fishing, hunting, etc. while a dSLR wouldn't be making the trip.
  15. Always more than one.
  16. Of those listed, D40. I would suggest you look at Canon's wares as well.
  17. Helium and Helium II are manufactured in the US. All other lines are manufactured in China.
  18. Too numerous to list. Plus, if I told you I'd have to kill you. :-X
  19. Whats wrong with being centered on scallops? I love scallops. There is nothing wrong with scallops. The problem comes when you focus on only one protein. Jamie used scallops no less than three times in the first six episodes. As for last night's episode, I really feel for everyone who ate during the main challenge. Escolar = anal leakage.

  21. Google is your friend. http://www.state.me.us/ifw/fishing/index.htm
  22. One look at my truck is all you need to see.
