My son Andrew entered a contest for the NEW mascot for Enchanted Forest's Water Safari, and his entry was chosen as one of the five finalists. Andrew is Autistic, and has really made huge strides over the last few years, and has developed quite an imagination and creativity. If he were to win this contest, he would be absolutely thrilled, as would his mother and I. Please take a few minutes, and vote for his entry, "Louie the Safari Duck". Link to the page: Water Safari's Mascot Contest I thank each and every one of you in advance.

Today was the launch of the final space shuttle mission. The NASA program is being shutdown early, but other programs are starting soon or are in the works. For my parents generation, it was the height of the space program. The Saturn V rocket was a massive towering symbol of the sheer power and might of the U.S.A. Going to the moon was something that brought the whole country together, and the incredible amount of advancements and development of modern conveniences that we take for granted today, stem from the incredible accomplishments and efforts of the USA space program. As a kid, and to this day, I have always wanted to be an Astronaut, and the US space shuttle …

i was wondering what else out there is good besides patron anejo? trying to stay under $40 a bottle and a fifth of patron at $55.99 is getting expensive

So I finally convinced my girl to putting a system in her car. Lol I bought a 10" RE Audio SE-x dual 2 ohm and a Rockford Fosgate T500-1bd amplifier. I bought a premade sub box from Sonicelectronix.com its 1.3 cubic ft. The stuff came in today. Im so stoked on the install. I got kicker 2 gauge wring and stuff from my previous setup and I'll just use those wires. The problem is my girlfriend won't let me take her car to do the install. She hides the keys and always has the door locked lol. It's like she's ok with me putting the stuff in but won't let me. She's a lil teaser I wanna break in her car lol. Ive been watching YouTube with the coathanger trick and whatnot. Any s…

So I've been spending my summers in the upper peninsula of Michigan all my life. It's a great place, but needless to say, the mosquitoes here get pretty freaking ridiculous with our swamp out back. I've heard some pretty crazy remedies for trying to stop the itch (everything from mint leaves, to lemon juice, to dog saliva). I was wondering if anyone out there has any homemade remedies. Cause I definitely got the itch

I click on "forums" and the forums don't load. I get a yellow pages box and that's it...

Some douche bag went to the Casey Anthony Murder Trial and decided it would be funny to stick up his middle finger at the TV camera during the trial. Watch the video, he was right, it was funny!! Casey Anthony trial: 28-year-old man held in contempt for middle finger hand gesture

Got me noticed today, LOL! Was filling the work truck and some kid pulled up at poundin' away in his explorer. One of his buddies noticed the XCON on the back of my shirt and asked me what the hell it was (he said it looked badass, I told him it is). So then an hour long conversation broke out and we talked audio, car shows, car clubs and I looked at the dudes modest little setup. Even recommended he toss in a BIG 3 with his HO alt he had just ordered from Ohio Generator. All in all an interesting happenstance, kewl couple of dudes and I'm sure they'l be checking out the forum as well since I told them all about it!! GO SSA!!! I gotta order more shirts!

OK as the title says I was wondering if anyone has had a cortisone shot? I just had one today in my left hip as I have a liberal tear from falling down my stairs in April and was wondering how long it will last to keep the pain away? My doctor says it will only last around a month- 2 months max but its different for each person. Just trying to figure out if it was worth the 4.5" 18 gage needle that he shoved into my hip as it hurt worse than the MR arthrogram when they put the iodine into my hip to find the tear. Now I have heard of people getting several over time in their back/knees but my Dr said that I can only have one cause they have to do surgery to repair it with…

Have a great day guys!

I'm looking to get a logo made for my little side business, RAM Designs. I'm wanting something that can be easily made into a decal, so I'm thinking something purely script based and at a (roughly)1:3 ratio. I'm thinking somewhat bold lettering with RAM and Designs connected somehow, but please feel free to think of something creative yourselves. Let me know if you can help me out, or send a PM my way(or hit me up on the chat feature here) if you're wanting to discuss more details. This is something that I'm going to want to use on everything that I do. Thanks for any and all help.
