HOW IS IT that THE Apple guru over here doesn't have an ipod hook up for his car?????

Constant clicking? or just when you are changing gears?

That little "pluk-snicket" sound of going in and out of gear . . . . if they made an album with that on it, I would have it in my cd player.

dyno-mat (sp?) would probably cure it completely, as long as the door was closed. (obviously)

I want a kit car with the tranny/shifter mechanism (whatever it is called) open to the inside of the car. I love that sound. The rhythm it makes is great.


No . . .I am not insane

You looked at his mod list and all you saw was "no iPod hookup"?
I think the Captain would have a field day w/ his "Curled Alumnium Valvue Stem Caps".

I'm a member of 2 wine clubs from wineries in Paso Robles. The wine is awesome, and every once in a while I go to the wineries for special events.
I made the mistake of joining an internet wine club before, and was very dissappointed in the quality of the wine they shipped. I'll take a BevMo $.05 sale anyday over the internet wine clubs.
I can't recommend Wine Woot to anyone. Besides, I rather throw my money at California wineries.

Speaking of transmissions, I found the thread I posted the pictures of the Voodoo **** compared to the OEM ****. These were taken before I install the shortshifter.

Mass Effect. Comes out 11/20/07 (same day as Rockband). And, I pretty sure it was a planet's Mayday call. Although, since it was ignored, I'm sure they were mad, so I guess "mad day call" is correct, nevermind.

pretty hard to say right now - I have only played through two levels and there are a lot of cut scenes trying to build the story line. Graphics are awesome though and the interactive play is really cool as well. I will have to let you know more as I get farther through the game.
