How do you delete an add in the Cobras for sale? I submitted an add twice. Thanks, Billyboy

Ron61 · #**3802** (**permalink**) 06-06-2007, 06:17 AM

Billyboy,

You should be able to edit the add and then you may have to go to advanced edit and you should be able to delete it from there. If not, then ask one of the moderators to delete one of them for you.

Brent,

Nice to see you posting again and that is great news about the houses. Thanks for the compliment on the Coupe. Once you get all moved in and settled I hope you will have time to post more often and keep us informed as to how things are going. Wish we had a chance to meet while you were out here. I am going to try to make next years Western States Cobra Bash Lord wiling.

Kristen,

See, go run around and have fun and you get way behind. I don't even get to run around and have fun and I am always way behind in everything.

Maybe both of them should be checked out.

Wonder if Turtle could end up having to look after Warren.

Warren,
After checking out the pictures you have posted on your "diet",I'm a little worried about your mental/phyical health.Turtle will have to deal with the mental.
After eating what you posted,I figured you need some help and I found it.

BEIJING, June 5 (Reuters) - A man in southeast China says 40 years of swallowing tree frogs and rats live has helped him avoid intestinal complaints and made him strong.

Jiang Musheng, a 66-year-old resident of Jiangxi province, suffered from frequent abdominal pains and coughing from the age of 26, until an old man called Yang Dingcai suggested tree frogs as a remedy, the Beijing News said on Tuesday.

"At first, Jiang Musheng did not dare to eat a live, wriggling frog, but after seeing Yang Dingcai swallow one, he ate ... two without a thought," the paper said.

"After a month of eating live frogs, his stomach pains and coughing were completely gone."

Over the years Jiang had added live mice, baby rats and green frogs to his diet, and had once eaten 20 mice in a single day, the paper said.

Fred,

So now instead of stomach pains he has tree frogs. Wonder if they all stay in his stomach or spread out to other areas. I would think Turtles would be more tasty, but the wood would probably splinter as it went down.

often, we get caught up in a debate over political semantics and end up ignoring the hard-shell realities of what we're talking about. According to mmigrationCounters.com, here are some of the realities that the Flake-Gutierrez Bill would airbrush out of the picture:

Number of Illegal Aliens in the Country
20,807,645

Money Wired to Mexico City since January, 2006
$ 22,213,001,672.00

Cost of Social Security Services for Illegal Aliens since 1996
$397,450,739,563.00

Number of Children of Illegal Aliens in Public Schools
3,958,789

Cost of Illegal Aliens in K-12 Since 1996:
$ 13, 965,063,431.00

Number of Illegal Aliens Incarcerated
332,594

Cost of Incarcerations Since 2001
$ 1,398,127,429.00

Number of Illegal Aliens Fugitives
642,799

Skilled Jobs Taken by Illegal Aliens
9,872,838

Figures can trick your eyes. Take particular note that items 2,3,5, and 7 reflect BILLIONS not millions of dollars -- and that item 3 exceeds one-third of a TRILLION dollars.

Can you imagine how much it will cost taxpayers if we triple the number of Illegals entering this country!!

While this thought is still fresh in our brain, let's take a look at New Orleans It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division . .

Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the Congress for $250 BILLION to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number, what does it mean?

a. Well, if you are one of 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man, woman, child), you each get $516,528.00.

b. Or, if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.00.

c. Or, if you are a family of four, your family gets $2,066,012.00.

Washington , D.C. .... HELLO!!! ... Are all your calculators broken??

This is too true.........And these numbers don't lie.........and, it's not funny!!!

Tree frogs do not taste good. But they do make good BB gun targets

Took the front tires off. My arms are tired! Must have hit the spinners at least 100 times to get them loose. Added some Wilwood anti-squeak plates behind the pads. What a dirty job!

The rears at targeted for tomorrow. But trying to hit the spinners way down inside the deep dish rims should be difficult.

Ron61 · #**3808** (**permalink**) 06-07-2007, 05:06 PM

Warren,

Turtle should fit right into those wheels. Let him get the spinners loose. I looked at one wrench a guy had for them but it wouldn't work on mine. His were not as wide as mine are.

Any time you are in a tele-confrence and need some way to kill time. read the forum.

Ron61 · #**3810** (**permalink**) 06-08-2007, 08:44 AM

Tru,

Just be sure that you aren't on a video teleconference where they can all see. This is probably the only car site in the country that stars a wooden turtle and French Frog.

If any of Tru's bosses were on the teleconference w/video,I would think nicely
framed pictures of Turtle and Frenchy on each side of him could result in special recognition.

Ron61 · #**3812** (**permalink**) 06-08-2007, 09:32 AM

Or at least a special letter of recommendation when he goes to look for his next job. They expect to see pictures of your wife and kids. Are you telling us that Tru should try to pass off Turtle and FFFFrroogg as his kids.

Sorry, seeing as Fred and I already take our beloved ones as IRS deductions, Tru cannot have them as kids!

Of course, if he pays me some $$, he can adopt them! Negotiable terms available. I'm also sure that Fred would sell of that two-bit whore.

Ron61 · #**3815** (**permalink**) 06-08-2007, 12:30 PM

It is getting warm here. I just got back from a drive in the 69 Cobra and didn't realize how warm it is until I was putting it into the garage. Darn, I wish my big garage door was just another 6" wider. What a difference that would make as I have to ease back and maneuver around the end of the Quik Lift Ramps and also make sure I don't scrape the side of the door.

Did the rear brakes today. Hit the rear spinners about 6 times at 1/2 the force applied to the front and they came right off.

Is it normal to have the fronts on super tight and the rears just snug?

I think she only charges you that higher rate because you want Turtle to watch.

With you being on the small side,5' 18",and the spinners being recessed on the rear.Maybe you just didn't smack the rears as hard as the fronts when you installed them last time.

Ron61 · #**3820** (**permalink**) 06-09-2007, 07:20 AM

Warren,

Both my front and rear spinners seem to be about the same tightness. Since I have no way to check the torque on them I use one of the wheel spokes as a mark and keep them lined up with that. I wonder what the torque should be if you had some kind of wrench you could put on them and measure it?
