Hey Sheriff, along with pump up the novocaine, my dentist PUMPS UP THE VOLUME (plus I'm willing to pay $30 extra for nitrous), so like Johnny Mnemonic, I say, "HIT ME!!!"

I have just joined and the knowledge you youngsters have is amazing.
My Camaro is a 12K miles 2010 Indy Pace Car. I started to buy a GT500 but didn't like the way it drove, fast but rough and for the same amount of money spent I can make the Camaro faster.
Welcome Hudson & Phantom, we are obsessed here.............

I need grief therapy. :( They are changing my dance exercize class to too late for me to go. I started going to that one in Nashville because the ones in my town moved to so early I can't make it there in time after work. So............ now there is no aerobics, or zumba, or any dance/exercize class I can make it to. Maybe it is what I need to push me to more weight work, but these classes are more than calorie burning to me. They are my stress management, my fun, my group therapy. They push me to be consistent & make me happy. Now I am sad. :( I will look around & see if I can find something else that is at a time I can make it, but it is not looking good.

Diane, I love the Equinox, too, but won't be buying now - don't want another car payment if I can help it... There are also a few things I don't like - the turning radius SUCKS!! One of the best thing about the Mitsubishi is that it turns on a dime - tight parking spots are never an issue, and less than 24 hours into driving the Equinox, I had parking problems. Also, the LTZ package isn't as nice as it should be for the price. My hubby's Silverado is an LTZ, and it is luxurious. The Equinox just didn't get the same level of LTZ... But, maybe later on when Mitzi kicks the bucket for good, I'll spend a little more time looking around and find the perfect Equinox for me.
You might try the Acadia or Traverse..........Equinox just has a big back seat........and no remarks guys

I think my least favorite noise is the sound of 2 of my dachshunds fighting. I can't stand the thought of any of them getting hurt.

My least favorite sound is when someone cracks their gum. Drives me NUTS!!

Jay, Ladybug had a bad passenger airbag sensor. I sure am glad I got the extended warranty, though - only had to pay a "deductible" of $100 + tax rather than $700 - works for me! She's all better now. Well, for the most part... I went to get in and noticed a scratch on my window - walked back into the service department and said "Someone must have let the seatbelt fly - my window tint is scratched." The service manager said "OK, let me know when you can bring her back in, we'll fix it" He didn't even want to take a look first. I know crap happens, but how they address it is what matters, and my service department rocks. Oh, and they changed the oil, too, without me asking. It was due to be done in about 300 miles anyhow...

Mitzi is fixed, all under the warranty at no charge. I'll be picking her up tomorrow morning!

Is it Friday yet???

I've always wanted to ride that ride with a shotgun! It would be so much more fun.

One sound I don't miss is the old 70's vintage surveillance cameras. The high piched squeal from what I can only assume were vacuum tubes, would drive me up the wall. I used to walk into some shops and do a u-turn and walk right back out. What got me is that no one else seemed to hear them. Thank God for modern solid state cameras!Name:  not listening.jpg

Yeah, I know I read that, sad as it is, it does sound like it was caused by stupidity. Your comment still made me laugh. Just struck me that way.

Least favorite noise, gee there are so many................I guess I'll go with, kids or rude adults smacking (making noise) when they eat.

Thanks Ruby, I sure am!

Never was very good at multiple choice tests. I do much better with essay tests, but ASE doesn't do those. So I had to prep for 7 days.

Finally had a chance to wash my dust storm ravaged truck tonight.
