August 13, 200520 yr Yeah, it kinda took me off guard.I was expecting all the rockford/audiopawn stuff, then i just see this giant wall with 2 18" MTs. <<< my reaction
August 13, 200520 yr @ the wall.Surprised I haven't seen someone post that they would be on the show ...
August 13, 200520 yr just like on ca. Did the interviewer ask him good question like, or did he just let him rant? Make him look like an idiot questions I mean.
August 13, 200520 yr half the thing was clips from the early 90s.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>A great time in the industry!!!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>well i mean they were just showing some silly high school kids saying ignorant things. i.e. "if they dont like it, then they dont have to listen to it. they're probably just all old people. old people should be kept at home."
August 15, 200520 yr Admin I actually caught that segment.I was very upset buy it, as mentioned before it was a heavily recycled piece that seemed to come across that they needed to fill some time on the show. It was very slanted in the POV, and as always they find the biggest losers/idoits to interview for the oppisition. Thus making people like most of us look foolish and stupid. If you looked closely you would have noticed some of the poor installs and the acient equipment, showing that they just basicly just re-showed a piece from 15 years ago. I was so insenced (sp??) by the massive jerk off, who clearly has not accomplished anything in goverment and is tring to find anyway to look good, who is making a big deal out some a few young kids haveing some fun that is really only harmful to themselves. And how does this make him look good? Well, most all politicians who are trying to improve their image or keep their name in the spot light go on finger pointing rampages. Many of these instances are pointless and trivial, leading to endless wasteful usage of our tax dollars. I honestly would like to find out the name of the man who is trying to fight the "BOOM CAR" sceen. I have no problem writting a massive email to him explaining his bad facts and slanted veiws. Actually now that I think about it a little it would be nice to get a petition together to go after this man. There are much much larger problems in life, and many more things that need serious attention, than the "BOOM CAR" craze as he calls it.I don't know how to clearly express my discust towards what was shown. What was just as sad was that 20/20's anchor was not at all netural in his stance on the subject, making a slanted biased piece even more so. This is a clear example of the media distorting and skewing the view and the outlook of something that is really small potatoes in our massive problems here in North America. (had to include our northern buddies) Sorry for the rant I could go on much longer, but I need to get some things done today.

August 17, 200520 yr I skimmed through all that B.SI wasnt able to stand reading all of it, just gets me annoyed.Everyone like music loud, even old people, it all depends on the music.
August 17, 200520 yr Would anyone like to help fund a scientific experiment to find out when exactly our country and the people in it turned into a bunch of whining sissy's? al

He hits the burp button. BRRROONNNNKKKKK! Pedestrians and parking valets look up at the noise. We wait a moment, and then hear the distinctive yelp of a Viper car alarm. He smiles. We crisscross the area, strafing the streets with 150-decibel blasts, triggering two or three car alarms per block. The variety of warning sounds is amazing. Some car alarms make a chirping noise, others wail; occasionally headlights will flash. "There's a lot of cops out tonight," Billy E says. "That's about all we want to do with that." As we speed away from the carnage, the cacophony of alarms gradually recedes. They sound like the cries of wounded animals."
August 18, 200520 yr I bet 99% of those people are the same people that drive while talking on their cell phones.
