Talk to the brothers Kitchen and tell them your going to LA for a seminar and will pass out literature for them - maybe they will subsidize your trip.

Well if ya offered more dancing girls then maybe I would be more interested in getting off my lazy ***.

Being in the boiler and pump business this should be a very easy concept or you would not last in the business very long. How's your 8. Still blowing money on the truck and ignoring the 8? Go to SSX and you will junk the truck.

Yeah sorry the truck is my #1 priority. It is just so damn hot these days...makes it hard to get the motivation to actually get something done.

I second that hot in Phoenix stuff. Maybe a couple of us can drive up to Las Vegas later this year and bug Phil if he still has tuning that needs done. I like that drive at night, and seem to be not using my vacation.

Hey, and I resemble that IT drone remark! And you don't know anything about phone companies until you have worked for one. Educational to say the least.

Stupid IT world! (in Homer voice). Look pink donut!

This is 1 hella long post....
I have smelled what seems to be water overheating thru my vents i live in ATL where its like 100 out and 60-90% humidity . Looked under my hood notcied that the engine coolent container had lots of air bubbles in it, this after just like 5min drive. I had told the dealer car smelled liked it was overheating and ther were bubbles in the coolent they said everything was normal. I am gonna due a radiator flush see if that helps, anyone else seen these bubbles and fixed this problem without going to the dealer?

Yes, but no one seems to want to accept it.

We are IT analysts...we don't blindly accept anything well without some independent info. I am cool with yall saying it...but I would like to read some more independent info confirming it. Everything I have read on the interweb's says "We don't know how it works, but it has made my gauge lower." I just wanna learn more...
