Wondering on the SES light. Went out when I pulled the fuses yesterday, stayed off the whole hour of driving to Ravenswood, came back on about ten minutes into the trip back. My fuel gauge sender is junk so that's possibly one of the codes that's been sent, have to check for anything else. Still feels good though.

A 300 pound dude, me at 160 pounds, 40 pounds of dog and 50-60 pounds of child + car seat at 60MPH in moderate hill scenario, and still got 19MPG. I would formerly expect that mileage with just myself in the vehicle at those speeds on that road, at most. Still pleased with the difference the plugs and TB made. Plus no more puttering when coming back to idle after a rev. :thumbsup:

Got my axle lug socket in preparation of my next project(s). While I was at the store, I noticed that oil filter cover socket I was saying was $21.99 was actually $12.99, not as bad as I thought (the one I got for my roomie's G6). Also grabbed a 32mm socket instead of 35 for the lug by accident, I must be getting number-dyslexic :rotfl:. Also the oil socket is impact-capable (CR-MO material), but why someone would use an impact wrench on a plastic cover is beyond me.

This has to be....500 calories total AFTER figuring in exercise, correct?

I wish. 500 calories total for food intake. You are allowed 100 grams (3.4oz) of chicken, very lean beef, fish, or (4) egg whites with (1) yolk, one cup of a vegetable from the list, and (1) apple or orange or 1/2 grapefruit twice a day. Each meal is 250 calories max.

Must drink a minimum of one gallon of water a day. You can also drink straight black coffee (no cream or sugar) and green tea.

It is a six week diet. We started last Saturday, so only five more weeks to go.

Just double checking..... it could be a new fade diet where you eat 2,000 then vomit up 1,500 for a total of 500 :biggrin:

:rotfl:

That's the college girl diet.

Good luck and stay strong. We tried one were my daily intake was under 2000 a day and I felt terrible during the diet. I had bad headaches for weeks and always felt drained. this was with burning about 1000-1200 calories 5 days a week at the gym with some weight lifting. Kept the gym going and started eating my usualy intake and lost more weight than when I was starving my self (I am a big boy at 275lbs). I lost 40 lbs and have stayed under 300 with a very occasional jump over, usualy during the holidays.

Drove about 3 hours north to go on the 1400 ft long toboggan run at Pokagon St Park Saturday.

They only had one of the two runs working, the other had, wait for it, too much snow!

We only got 2 runs in the hour, not the usual 4.

Then drove 3 hours home.

Fixed the pins on one of my halo sockets to make better contact. Now watching some TV, maybe grab a short nap, and probably play a little PS3 before the game comes on later. :thumbsup:

Watching the game with a stream CTV (Canada TV). Have not seen the US commercials yet, and the Canadian ones are very strange. So far the entire game has been terrible, now we get to see the abomination of a half time show.

This halftime show would be better suited for an awards show or something. Maybe this long ass halftime will be long enough for the Broncos to come up with a completely different game plan and make the game interesting for the second half.

Red Hot Chilli Peppers may have saved the half time show, Bruno just wasn't cutting it.

jrSS sucks is an understatement.

I didn't watch any of it. I had church, don't have cable, and having to sit through million-dollar ads between bouts of watching 22 millionaires and soon-to-be-millionaires rubbing up on each other isn't my thing.

Makes me feel more broke than I am :rotfl:

Dont need cable to watch it, free live stream on fox sports. However I have been watching a CTV stream for 2/3 of the game before finding this out.

We haven't had cable for over a year now, does make me feel more productive.
