Mike, maybe carpet bombed was a little ott, but it was certainly given a heavy pounding the last time.... and i dont think it we went that far out of our way to discriminate targets... we are always told how good the special forces are, how they infiltrate the enemy etc. but they cant find him, nor could they find Laden. i'm not so sure they would assassinate him, as thats not such a politically correct method as waging a war there are still plenty of other "rulers" that should be targetted for the same treatment, but they continually get away with their crimes against their own people, and thats been going on for years... its the hypocrisy thats the problem !

One day God calls down to Noah and says, "Noah me old china, I want you to make me a new Ark". Noah replies, "No probs God, me old Supreme Being. Anything you want. After all, you're the guv" .. But God interrupts, "Ah, but there's a catch." This time Noah, I want not just a couple of decks, . . I want 20 decks one on top of the other". "20 DECKS!", screams Noah. "Well, OK Big Man, whatever you say. Should I fill it up with all the animals just like last time?" "Yep, that's right, well . . sort of right . . this time I want you to fill it up with fish", God answers. "Fish?", queries Noah "Yep, fish . . well, to make it more specific Noah, I want carp - wall to wall, floor to ceiling -Carp!" Noah looks to the skies. "OK God my old mucker, let me get this right, you want a New Ark?" "Check". "With 20 decks, one on top of the other?". "Check". "And you want it full of Carp?". "Check". "Why?" asks the perplexed Noah, who was slowly but surely gettingto the end of his tether.......................... scroll down ! It's the best ever !!!! keep going - it's worth waiting for........ "Dunno", says God, "I just fancied a Multi-Storey Carp Ark". _________________________________________________________________

just had this in my inbox :D To the tune of 'if youre happy and you know it'.......... If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq. If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq. If the terrorists are frisky, Pakistan is looking shifty, North Korea is too risky, Bomb Iraq. If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq. If we think someone has dissed us, bomb Iraq. So to hell with the inspections, Let's look tough for the elections, Close your mind and take directions, Bomb Iraq. It's "pre-emptive non-aggression", bomb Iraq. Let's prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq. They've got weapons we can't see, And that's good enough for me 'Cos it'all the proof I need Bomb Iraq. If you never were elected, bomb Iraq. If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq. If you think Saddam's gone mad, With the weapons that he had, (And he tried to kill your dad), Bomb Iraq. If your corporate fraud is growin', bomb Iraq. If your ties to it are showin', bomb Iraq. If your politics are sleazy, And hiding that ain't easy, And your manhood's getting queasy, Bomb Iraq. Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq. For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq. Disagree? We'll call it treason, Let's make war not love this season, Even if we have no reason, Bomb Iraq.

and the allies action of carpet bombing baghdad incurred no civilian casualties ? Agreed. And if you were an Iraqi, then the opposite would be just as strong a choice for you. Civilians in all countries have the same choices (none) and are under the same threat of death and destruction, due to the actions of the people controlling the war machine. If Saddam himself is such a threat, then why not just assassinate him and his supporters covertly ? That would save countless lives. But thats just not cricket is it ?

Mugabe.... torture, execution, starvation The middle east nations have been around and were more advanced well ahead of the rest of europe/states.... what makes our way of life so good that we have to force our ideals on them ? My bomb's bigger than your bomb... You are talking about Bush, right ? ;)

and the contortions you have to perform to get to the position of being able to adjust it mean that you lose all sense of direction, balance and even purpose.. ;) i think you just adjust it closer to the front of the car

Ajay, the main update method is connecting to pc, then updating via internet, but the added feature with the Road Angel is that it has a manual "Store" and "Delete" function. so you can add your own sites in when you pass them, including the trap type, or you can delete them if they are old, without having to update properly. you can also use it to add your own "points of interest" ;) it also has a number of known vascar sites in, and beeps over the 1/4 mile section that is used regularly..... konrad, i've got a laser blinder twin, which is now sold by bel and has a bel part number, but cant remember which. it has been "in action" a number of times so has saved me some money, but i get a few false alarms... particularly from the new LED brake lights, and infra red detectors on some crossing.....

the best combo all round would have to be gps unit/radar detector/laser jammer but that does sound costly.... i have Road Angel and jammer, and dont really feel the need to get a radar detector now. the jammer can be connected to the Road Angel for single unit warnings, and the Road Angel can be updated by yourself while driving You can get a bundled deal from Blackspot, the makers of Road Angel, where they will give a discount on the jammer if you buy them together from them. And as they only give very small dealer discounts, it is not worth trying to get one from anyone else when the manufacturer will do.. ;) just mention me when you call them :D lately, the only time i have thought a radar detector would be handy is when i am on the J10->J15 section of M25, where cameras are on most of the gantries, but only a couple are active at any time.. then i wouldnt have to slow down for all of them ;) Being able to update the Road Angel myself is a good feature, but the accident blackspot warnings are a real bonus when in a new area.....

palm pilot, satellite dish and bush telegraph

i got mine from Phuong in the US eatricezone and have had them on the car for about 2.5 years

rofl.. calm down russ... lol you can see how annoying it is when people dont read the posts and keep replying regardless.... happens all the time.. and causes most of the fallouts.. :D

heh... 'fraid not... i listen rather than watch.... ;) but could be 1999 or Lets go crazy.... they are around the same "high heels" era

i'm with Glen on this one (oh no.. conspiracy theorists feel vindicated.... ;) ) i have been a Prince fan since well before Purple Rain the bloke's a wierdo, no question, but his talent is amazing and he has authored a lot more top 40 songs than he has sang....

Dear Friends, This may come as a bit of a shock to those of you who know me well but I have made the monumental decision to take a complete year off. There are a number of reasons, but the major contributor to my decision has been my involvement with a group in Bolivia, who are fighting for freedom and justice against unbelievable odds. I have been communicating with this minority guerrilla group for several months, and now finally they have persuaded me to go and join them. I know you will think I am totally crazy but I have not taken this decision lightly. Nothing you can say or do will stop me doing what I truly believe in. I hope to see you again when the battle is won.....(I am attaching a photo of the group) Hasta la Vittoria, Happy New Year Craig "Chavez" Stratton

looks almost real too :D

might i refer the honourable gentleman to this image from the service manual you are correct that the left turbo goes to the left IC and left throttle body, BUT you will notice that the throttle bodies feed the opposite sides of the engine :p :p :p

got both of those.. cant get the kids off of GTA VC, and my bro-in-law nearly finished getaway before he had to go back, we did find time to finish Burnout 2 though.. also a wicked game :D

Seeker of truth and justice ? Using an ALIAS !! :rolleyes:

and best wishes to everyone

Andy, isnt this the system that the Z has as standard already ? The intakes feed the opposing bank, so the air system is already cross flow. This front mount design would actually make the system separate left and right. Therefore, the problems you describe should happen on a standard Z, but what may look a problem may also be a bonus.... With crossflow, if one side seizes, then the whole engine performance suffers, so you would notice a lot quicker If you have separate left and right, then if one side seizes, the other side would still be running fine, so you would not notice the reduction in power as quickly, and more strain on the crank would probably result. happy new year btw :D

merry xmas to everyone you all make this place what it is :D

Chris, cheques have a 6 month expiry by default, unless marked otherwise.

multiple file upload boxes wont speed the process up any, if it takes ages for one..... you still have the same amount of bandwidth available... and, you are more likely to time out uploading more files

that was because the pics you were trying to upload were too big. i have upped the max size to 256k, your next limit will be the 1M of actual space allowed.... ;) i left the file sizes small as it is much nicer for people on smaller connections, and also makes you learn the image software better ;)
