Don't need it since I got the "Mr. Fusion".

BUT: there's no deuterium stations near me so I have to get my own. Takes 3,247 bottles of cheap bottled water to separate out .031 ml of deuterium. Sometimes I wonder why I bother...of course, .031 ml lasts for 6 months, so it's not so bad.

Sam's club bottled water has the most in it and it's pretty cheap.

I went and got my blinker fluid checked, and I tried adjusting my torsion bars on the highway at 85mph yesterday and I gotta tell you guys, I don't know how you all do it! haha you guys are pretty funny i must say, I'll try and do some more research next time before I just post questions like that. My bad guys!

Oh man the madness continues I just spit all over the computer screen I figured that laughs were done but man was I wrong.

Its good to see the new guy is understanding. Spend some time here you will be able to jump in on the hazing of the new guy.

How about the time machine from "My Science Project" that would fit in the back of a Ranger for a good mod---and you don't have to do 88 or have plutonium.

I just got cross drilled rotors on for the rear of my truck (stock axle)... I was thinkin about getting the cross drilled brake lines too so that i could really optimize the cooling and there stop much faster. Is this a good idea? Also, I was thinking about getting the the brake master cylinder breather so it could cool off up front too with some fresh air...
