Yeah nice speakers.

I have a weird desk obsession. Used to have one like that but now I'm so used to huge long desks.

Seriously though I love PC desk pics, so everyone should post them.

There's a reason I'm still using these speakers 12 years and counting, they sound amazing IMO. The FX 6021 sound so great because they use line array technique (Altec called it "InConcert Technology"). You can read about it here: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/altec-purpo ... w-288.html

I'll post a pic of my modern laptop desk sometime soon then.

This morning I took my push mower's spark plug out, and sprayed some of this in the hole, then put the plug back in, and let it sit for 15 minutes. I then held a sledgehammer over the mower, and told it if it didn't start, I was going to gleefully pulverize it into a pile of scrap metal. Then I pulled the start cord, and the damn thing started right up.

I think the Japanese might be onto something with the whole tsukumogami thing.

Ticked:

Mower started, so I had to mow the lawn.

You have no one to blame but yourself.

On the contrary, I blame the sledgehammer.

Frown: That moment when you realize you went too happy on fusion and don't have enough cash to make it to the next scheduled dungeon dive and your last save was 15 days ago.

Somewhere in between a smile and a frown: While I did have lots of fun playing Yakuza and Wario Land all day, I did more or less nothing productive, so now all of that is pushed into tomorrow for (yet again)

I'm currently in love with seafoam cleaning products. Jeep engine developed a knock in the engine and half a can of this in the oil got rid of the knock and all hesitation during acceleration so it's running like new even with 140K miles on it. This stuff has a shit load of uses as well.

^ I've done the treatment pouring it in the gas tank to clean some stuff up. Worked good, smoked like a train for awhile though. Don't you change the oil after a few hundred miles after doing it the way you did it?

: One of my buyers on ebay who purchased something over a month ago just opened a case against me claiming he never got the item even thought it was "delivered in/at mailbox" on March 6th . Guy went straight to opening a case so given the amount of time he waited and the fact that he didn't contact me I figure he is fishing for a free item. Sure there is the possibility that the carrier delivered it to the wrong house or it was stolen, but the fact that the buyer waited this long is fishy. Hopefully eBay has my back and doesn't screw me at least it's only an $8.50 item if they, but it's still annoying when people try to rip you off.

Basically you put it in the oil 200-300 miles before a change and then you can put it in right after for extra clean and just monitor the oil color. I'm planning to do it once every 4-5 oil changes. I also did the air intake spray clean on my Dad's Jeep and it cleaned it up pretty well. That stuff does put out a shitload of smoke as it gets the carbon out though. I want to do it on mine but I have to get the track arm swapped out first so I can really push the engine to get the maximum effect out of the cleaning still getting a speed shimmy at 65mph. track arm is pretty straight forward with just two bolts holding it on but I want to use my dads car lift for the install so I'm waiting for my next work break which is Thursday.
