    I've been swamped with classes and 2 jobs so the forum had to take a backseat to life but I just wanted to pop in and say I've missed you guys. :)

    I recently moved into a new apartment, had a contract renewal at work and got a raise to boot! Annnnndddd...... The Prius has nearly 90k miles on it and still had no failures beyond a burned out tail light bulb! I've dubbed him, the King Ranch edition due to all of the work on the range I've been doing in this beast of a car. LOL

    Next semester is going to be light on classes but heavy on work yet I hope to be in here more often helping other PC'ers and arguing with a specific few. :p

    Hey,

    Welcome back and check your visitor messages too! I was wondering what happened right after you got the Nokian i3s.

    Thank you my friends. :)

    It is good to be back!

    About the Nokians... I'll start a thread on those once I swap out my stock battery and see if that has any effect but as of now the milage drop has been horrific. I get the same milage I did with my 17"s lol. Even trying to lightly hypermile I can't get any better than 47mpg.

    What did you send? Was it the PM version of a dog poo in a burning paper bag?

    I thought one of the computer geek types here could tell us?
    You can bet there is a string of code for it and it even makes your shoe stink!!

    I remember reading something not too long ago about being able to reproduce smells electronically. If and when we perfect replicator technology, spam could get really nasty.

    I was in Sacramento the weekend before Thanksgiving. The weather was lovely. And I had some really nice crepes at this little bistro by the capital.

    Didn't see you, though.

    Yeaaaa. Now there is a chance for the environmental forum to return to life. Hopefully you learned something in all those classes to pass on. Please look at the pheasants if at all possible (it was my poor attempt to fill the vacuum).

    Good reason to skip that particular upgrade to your browser or email client.
