Welcome to SSA. I try to make it down to our VA group once a year.

I have not had a chance to build the suggested size ported for the MJ-18. But I like it's clean sound sealed, most people seem to be in the range of about 2.9-3.5 cubes sealed for each.

Love the class A's and ref's. I miss my old SS's.

Welcome to SSA. What is more important to you, output or clear sound?

Very nice work.

On Feb. 2nd, 1992, a brand new sand / mocha colored Ford Explorer XLT 4x4 joined the family. This may be my fair well to a terminally ill old friend. Over the years the Mocha Monster had many little changes and tweaks (engine/suspension/exhaust/system the list goes on). I passed my drivers test in her with a perfect score, while all the other people in line in their rinky compacts failed to repeat that glorious performance. She has safely carried me for over 215k miles, and has covered every eastern state as well as most central states. Hauled countless soccer and ultimate frisbee players to endless tournaments in all weather at all hours, only faultering once. A second chance at life was granted when a 1993 Mazda B4000 sacraficed it's body in Delaware in 1999. So an emergency tow home from Mardi Gras to recieve a heart transplant happened. Later, during graduate school, a bad streak of head-on hits with over zealous deer's threatened again. Those were the days when the front transfer case would still engage the front wheels and we could have fun in the snow and mud. For a while she lived with a sister 5 years her junior, but with all the bells and whistles, not to mention a V8. The mocha monster has competed in SPL for a few seasons for Salisbury Sound and Speed, never breaking the 150 mark though. The amount of wire, used and unused, still residing in the monster for stereo systems is a little disturbing. She also was a rolling apartment during the summers at the beach when it was not safe to drive home. After gradschool, another transmission failure threatened again, only to seem like certain doom when a sultry low-slung silver german strolled into town in early 2004. But no, she would not be denied. Two years later, she carried baby Arthur home for the first time from the hospital. There are so many memories that have happened in my life because of, due to, or around the mocha monster. Now with a failing alternator, bad tranny gasket leak, and dead battery, the end may be near. No one will want to offer any money to buy her and give her one last chance at life, so maybe the National Kidney Foundation donation will be the way. If this is the end, we had a bumpy, but unforgettable run, that would not trade for the sexiest Italian land rocket. You will be missed.

bullshit Not bs with this job.

On this day in 1957, Felix Wankel's first working prototype DKM 54 of the Wankel engine was running at the NSU research and development department Versuchsabteilung TX in Germany. In 1913, New York City's Grand Central Terminal opened as the world's largest train station. In 1893, Thomas A. Edison finished construction of the first motion picture studio, the Black Maria in West Orange, New Jersey. And in 1884, edition one of the Oxford English Dictionary was published. Happy Birthday Pauly Shore and Lisa Marie Presley (1968), Brandon Lee (1965-1993), Bill Mumy (1954), Rick James (1948-2004), Jessica Savitch (1947), Terry Jones (1942), Sherman Hemsley (1938), Garrett Morris (1937), President Boris Yeltsin (1931-2007), S. J. Perelman (1904-1979), Langston Hughes (1902-1967) and Clark Gable (1901). RIP Buster Keaton (d. 1966). "Ahhh. A man with a sharp wit.

So today I learned that I am clairvoyant. How you find out?

Just leave it on a few more hours Could always run the little F5 script I have for SSA, cheats the system by refreshing the page every 5 seconds automaticly, to raise page loads to help move up in the search engine listings. But I always forget to use it.

Lol. Come here I will make you a real coffee. I have a Poolish on the counter bubbling away, going to make some bread tonight!! Wish I could. Maybe one day when SSA subs are in shops around the country, I can afford to hop on planes to travel around and hang out.

Sleepy and I don't want a 2nd cup of coffee. At the office here, they provide free coffee, but it is the straight leaded kind that Sean would rather have a pair of $20 co-ax in his ///M5 then drink it.

Cherrish those simple days while you still have them.

I need a hair cut bad.

I am slammed busy 7 days a week, so with everything at full tilt, things seem to run together.

Al Gore will be pissed.

Now I've made... just kidding, talking about 80's metal brought up some songs and reading Neil say "Here I am..

Like a twister I was born to walk alone..

Going down the only road I've ever known...

Once again on my own?

Lunch time.

Excellent choice, and you can upload the pictures here at the SSA gallery.

Corrected for northern folks.

Maybe I am dating myself, but when I was in 9th grade, I first heard Primus. A classmate explained the Primus sucks sticker he had and the meaning behind it.
