I'd suggest starting now then, because they've already got one hell of a head start.

I've seen those before and even made one once, didn't know that's what they were called though. Thanks for that

That would have been a 440 engine. General Motors made the 454.

I used to have a 69 Newport. Loved that car.

You mean to tell me that I could have been charging all these years instead of giving my farts away for free?

Oh for sure that's mainly obsolete, I'm just stating the main differences that I've read about them.

From what I understand the SU is bigger, has more range, and can top out a little faster than the f-16. It also has thrust vectoring so it can maneuver pretty well in a dogfight.

The f-16 is cheaper to run and more reliable, and since it's smaller and lighter it's hard to spot and can still maneuver with the best of them.

If the 'artist' knocked a couple zeros off the price, that would make a fine statue in a pool with water squirting out his neck.

I just vpn'ed through Texas and yup, got that too. As soon as I changed back to my normal location and reloaded it was fine. If that ends up happening to me I'm just gonna delete my account, fuck that shit. Nothing there worth fascists keeping an eye on me.

Welcome to 'murica, where everything is made up and the definition of words don't matter!

He didn't give a shit a little while ago, but I guess his handlers realize that's not winning any votes and with the elections coming up....

But don't worry, he'll stop caring the second he wins again.

The money behind it is the united states, they want the oil without the cost of starting a war.

 

I wonder if JB Weld can fix this. I guess only one way to find out.

 

They're from the phones you see in old movies that you had to crank to talk to an operator, commonly used up until the 1950's. I put my multimeter on one and it's still reading 1.3 volts. The owner told me I can take the whole lot of them if I want them which I'm tempted to do just because I like to collect old junk but I probably drag enough useless crap home as it is.

 

I tried looking around a little and it sounds really scammy to me. All the contact info and domain registrars is listed "redacted for privacy." Personally the whole thing seems to smell funny to me but I could be wrong. Anyone used or heard of this site before? I just want to make sure my daughter isn't going to get screwed over

In the background of the one pic you can see one of the abandoned schoolhouses in the distance.

 

I didn't get a closer pic of this one sadly because a)Bees and b) I got distracted by the old Fargo that's directly behind me in this pic.

I've always wondered how many people fell for that.

 

Well that was unexpected. Rip Matthew
