im trying to convince my parents to get on my verizon plan with me and my bro so my bill will go down.. i showed my dad what pandora is/does tonight and he really interested now I have been looking for ways to reduce my parents bill and I realized that pricing is just dumb. 450 minutes of talk time is $40 a month but UNLIMITED data is only $30 a month extra... to be fair that 450 min does include free verizon to verizon and free nights and weekends. One way to go down on your bill if you have smartphones with internet is to drop unlimited texts and use Google voice so send your texts over the internet. However my parents can't do that so we just have to keep unlimited texts.

I just realized that I have been in the negative every month lately unless I had some source of extra income come in for that month. ugh...

I get to spend all my extra income this month paying off court fees and defensive driving for a ticket.... yay....

You are making me remember how badly I want to get some clutch work done on the Kawasaki Brute Force 750. This guy does work on them lightens them up substantially and allows the clutch to fully open and close which adds more top and low end gearing then stock. Oh if I had the money, what I would do to that bike.

Man sledding??? Sorry, but my boat doesn't rock that way....

Why is there a lack of Garlic in these recipes? Is it because you use garlic with the meats? I was also thinking about throwing in some mushrooms but heck, the budget is stretched as is.

Can you buy Parmigiano Reggiano at Sam's Club?

Only reason I have this deer is because someone didn't feel like chopping the tenderloins out of a deer they shot so i dis it and took them.

My answers will be expensive... I like to substitute cheese for butter and wimp out on the cream, but for 20 that will put you at around $70 in cheese alone. I'd recommend 16-20 ct shrimp and personally would expect 8-10 in the dish or 1/2lb. Chicken 1/3lb should be adequate. It will also depend on what else you serve with it. Perhaps better for me to translate the recipes you are looking at. Whose are they? Links are best of course I looked at a lot of random links. Definitely looked for the cheaper options as I just want something that isn't from a jar. This will be a part of a progressive dinner where appetizers will be served at one house, entree at another then desert at another so this will probably be served with some garlic bread. It will be all girls being fed so the portions can be much smaller. How much pasta should I have? would 3 to 4 pounds work? Even though desert is at my house I am planning out the appetizer and entree as well. For reference the the appetizer will be bacon wrapped dove breast and deer tenderloin (and possibly one other meat because I don't think I have enough) with a sliver of onion and jalapeño or green bell pepper and a dab of cream cheese. The desert with be fruit, marshmallows, etc... dipped into a chocolate fountain

Hey guys. i'm looking at Alfredo recipes and they seem to be all over the place on the amount of butter, cream, and cheese that you use. I am making Alfredo for about 20 people. do you guys have any recipes you like to use? Also, I won't be making it, so I would like for it to be as simple as possible. For the record: I will be making half with shrimp and half with chicken. How much lb of chicken/ shrimp do you recommended for 20?

Not sure if I mentioned this but I found a Giant Rincon (I think) next to a dumpster. I took a look and it looks like the shifters and front fork are the only thing that is wrong with it. Would it be worth buying some shifters and a front fork to have it around for a bit then turn around and sell it? I also have my big ass Specialized Expedition I could sell and both could go towards a "real" mountain bike.

There is an excellent writeup on the GM oil life monitor on a Cadillac forum I can try and find if you are interested, then again maybe you've already read all about the GM one. I would definitely like to see it. I have read a lot, including reading through the patent and some of the SAE paper, but those are from the late 80's and the more information the better.

Perfect, thanks for the clarification

Any ford buffs know if ford currently has an oil change indicating system like GM has? That is, one that is based off of actual engine usage and not just mileage. If so, when did they start using it? Edit: From what I've found the fanciest that Ford F-150s get is in the pic below If so, there is drastic room for improvement. Which is where my research comes in.

Scan the wiki and done

Not heat when on. Reset the system, did not fix it. Even in emergency mode, it cannot get over 60 degrees in the house. We keep our house at about 55 almost all the time in winter. I got home one morning and it was 44*F in my house.

I'm sorry that you hate me so much Aaron....

NP: Screw you, we're from Texas

Sunny and finally above freezing with minimal wind here. That means OIL CHANGE!

Hey, do you guys know any way that I could run a program that would make my mouse click in the center of my screen every 15 minutes or so?

I thought it was only going to be $3 and was super stoked but I had to pay shipping which was $8... meh

I normally despise gel pens, but I'm intrigued. I do too, but the Uni 1.0 Jetstreams are fucking sweet. Just ordered 12 blue ones shipped to my door for less than 12 dollars. Also got an assorted variety of 3 of the .7 version just to try.

Man that sucks. Hoping for the best for you

Going in to work for the first time in a week.... But, with all this talk I'm going to stop at the store first and get some pens

I normally despise gel pens, but I'm intrigued. When I think gel pens I think 6th grade when the $1 gel pens were the thing to have.
