    You might want to try a restore on the computer. Go to the control panel and coose the restore option.There should be some dates listed that you can restore the system to. Then choose a date that has a restore point before you started having trouble. This will reset the computer to the settings before the trouble started.

    I know what you mean big guy. It has been 2 weeks for me also. I've been taking Chantix and it really helps with the cravings....cool dreams also.. Morning coffee time is the worst....Good luck to you..

    Had my left knee done in '05. Still has some clicking sounds coming from it but no pain like it was before. Just be sure to do your PT and work on those exercises on your own. The more you work the better off you'll be. Sometimes I think they should have put a grease fitting in there along with the knee

    Check the bleeder hole in the bottom of the MC. Sometimes some trash gets in there and prevents the tiny air bubbles from escaping into the MC. I took a small drill bit and opened up the hole and re-bled the lines and it worked fine.

    The Del Webb community in Summerville is nice with security gate, pool clubhouse and ponds. HOA fees include lawn care services but not sure about exterior maintenance. These are stick built homes and not manufactured or modular homes. There is another retirement community close to Bluffton SC around the Hilton Head Island area. This is also a Del Webb, stick built community but has some legal issues going on with some of the homes regarding moisture behind the exterior siding I believe.

    I have a 97 RSTD and the boss lady ordered a new one for me from the local Yamaha dealer. PN STR-4NL03-11-00 and it was only 195.62 tax included. It's listed on cheap cycle parts.com for $151 and at Yamaha Sports Plaza for $128. This is for a 97 RSTD but it should be the same

    I am a real etate appraiser here in SC and also worked at the tax assessors office in Berkeley County. From an appraiser's viewpoint, the modular, not manufactured, homes are well worth the savings in cost. I have appraised several of these homes in the area and have found that the values are the same as "stick built" homes. The building of these homes in an enviroment controlled setting is a big plus. Think about a stick built home being built in the great outdoors, rain, wind, snow....yuck. The wood gets wet, dries out and gets wet again causing warping, shrinking etc. None of this in a factory. 2x6 construction, metal straps instead of toe nailing the joists, etc. Exterior siding can be whatever you want. Wood, brick, cement plank..whatever. Same goes for roofing. I have seen several with metal roofs. Per the SC state regs the value of a mod home is comparable to a stick built home as far as taxes go also. I have seen these type homes in some real nice upscale developments and after finishing you cannot tell the difference from a custom built home...

    Forget the pros..a bunch of overpaid crybabies playing a kids game. If you want to watch real football played for the love of the game....check out your local high school games...It costs $7 here in the Creek and it is worth every penny. Getout and support your local high school on Friday nights....that's where I'll be until the weekend of champions which is the state championship games....GO GATORS....Goose Creek Gators that is....

    That was awsome...what a feeling that must have been....wonder how long the actual flight time was....another 20 years or so and this will probably be a routine site.....Orville and Wilber would have loved this.....

    My heart and prayers go out to you in this trying time. My son just recently returned from Iraq the first part of June. I thank the Lord for his safe return as this is a very dangerous part of the world. I know you're going to be waiting for any word fom your "boys" as we were. If they have computor access there...get a camera for your boys and one for your computor and load up Skype..Even though you can't touch them you will be able to see and talk to them. I pray for their safe return...

    Nuttin special...screw driver and couple of sockets or wrenches...maybe a pair of pliers also...Use a bolt to plug the gas line after you take it off the carb. I use a cone shaped rubber plug which works great. You'll be a pro after this....

    Need to get a carb rebuild kit for it. Don't forget to get a primer bulb also. Make sure you blow compressed air through out the carb (bout 20 psi should work) and watch out for the little o ring in where the needle jet is. Kit will come with new gaskets, float,o ring and needle. Nuttin to it...

    Hopefully it will cool off by the first weekend of November...about the time for the Galveston Rally. Plan on making the trip from SC to see my brother in League City. It's a tad bit warm here also but not as bad as TX

    Save yourself a lot of trouble and get a vacuum pump (at the auto parts store, under 20 bucks) Take off the cover and suck all that old fluid out. Then clean it out with a rag and refill. Take the pump and hook it to the bleeder valve and suck the rest of the old fluid out. Takes bout 10-15 min. No air in the system and you're all done. Just keep an eye on the reservoir and don't let it get too low....

    Sounds like that lady was at fault. I would let her insurance pay for the damage....Glad no one was hurt....Look at the bright side...at least you had a reverse gear for a bit.....

    I was in the Air Force many years back working on the C-141's and we would send the "greenies" out for a couple of yards of flight line.....Always fun.....Nice Trike..I want one...
