    Speeding ticket...need input

    Honestly, I didn't realize I was speeding. Got cited for 52 in a 35 after leaving an intersection where the speed limit gradually increases. I thought I was in the 45 mph zone, but I apparently got there too soon. All this took place over a span of just .8 mile. Actually I thought I was pulling...

    Super cold virus?

    Are there a lot of viruses going around where you're at? Is your family having a harder time getting rid of common bugs? Are you noticing a lot of people sicker? With this MRSA "strep" superbug in the news lately, it got me to thinking that perhaps many of these viruses and bacterium are...

    Wheel alignment question...

    When replacing your front tires, can a wheel alignment be done before the balancing and mounting of the new tires? Reason I ask is because my front tires are wearing excessively on the inner treads on the front. They seem to be wearing pretty bad. I want to make sure that there is nothing...

    Warning: The Golden Compass movie

    If you are a Christian parent, be cautious about allowing your child to see "The Golden Compass" to beginning showing in December at movie theatres across the country. The stories are very anti-Christian and directly targeted your children to convince them that God is evil and weak. Here is...

    Does police RADAR lock onto your ignition?

    I read on another board that police radar can lock onto the ignition signature and can also detect braking due to newer vehicles' electronics. Is there any truth in this? How does it work, if so? Educate me.

    The 'Cuda Returns!

    Concept wears Chrysler nameplate. Obviously its a spin off the Challenger, but with the pending death of the Magnum, perhaps Chrysler will expand the LX line some. I read somewhere the concept boasts 600 horsepower! http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2007/10/chrysler-unveils-new-cuda-concept-at.html

    Appendix found to have healthy purpose

    Fairly interesting conclusion. For so long, the appendix has been viewed as practically useless. Now, it appears to be instrumental in returning the bowl to a healthy status much more quickly.

    Anybody running nitrogen in their tires?

    I've read that this is becoming more popular and even some police departments are starting to use it. From my understanding it is used heavily in the airline industry and in race car tires. Nitrogen, it is said, does not leak out as bad as regular air and the tires remain cooler as well on the...

    Just got back from the local auto show...

    ...and I must say with exception to a few other models, Ford rules in its class. Chevy, by far, has the cheapest looking interior materials that I saw. Pontiacs are about the same. Saturn, GMC and Cadillac are the best in their categories. I did like the Corvette Z06...the only Chevy I'd have...

    Dash cam video of NCSHP crash...

    I don't know if any of you remember the photo I posted a few weeks ago regarding the NCSHP Trooper that was seriously injured after crashing at high speed in an attempt to stop someone. Well, the local station just did an interview with him and he is recovering nicely considering his injuries...
