  1. quit smoking today

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted

    There's not a damn thing hard about quitting cold turkey. About 2 years ago I went from a pack a day to none a day and yeah, you cant help but think "damn a smoke would be good" but at the time I had a good reason to quit. About 2 months later, my reason ceased to be a reason anymore and I started back up. Been on unfiltered lucky strikes since about august, at over a pack day and I'm considering quitting temporarily. $8 a pack and say 4 packs every 3 days, is ALOT of money. Don't get me wrong, I love my cigarettes, but you gotta have something motivate you to quit.

    I'm hoping to be successful about quitting now, I'm in the market for a new gun. :)

    Hahahaha!!!

    So I get on youtube just now and see you put up a new video Steve, wow... Even in the description you still are knocking on my new color...

    Like I said, coming up real soon, nipple pink is going to be the next new hottness in the automotive color scene. ;) Think about it, what guy doesn't like TA-TA's with pink nipples? And not only that, nipple pink can be done in many shades just like in real life, it's a very fluctuating color. I don't know about you guys, but there's not too damn many TA-TA's with pink nipples that I don't like.

    Who knows, my new color might just even make it into your grandkids' crayola boxes....

    All I know is if that happens I better get a copyright on that and get a cut of the cash...

  5. If anyone ever wondered why I'm "The Performer"

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted

    Like the topic says, if anyone ever wondered why my screen name is "The Performer" it's because for about 6 years I have been known to perform close up magic. It's really just a fun hobby, I don't do this as a job, however tips are quite common. These particular videos were taken by a buddy with his cell phone so the quality isn't extraordinary, but just remember back to what cell phone cameras USED to be like...

    Anyway, we were at a dance hall/bar and I was talked into doing a show for some people. This is how it turned out...

    This last video wont embed. (No offense but the new forum makeover sucks ass)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIsyfRIK3Es

    So that's a few videos I've got. I do quite a few other things than playing card work, it's just these clips only showcased that part of the show. Since that night I've been told that we are going to be doing this again coming up this weekend (apparently I don't have a say in it :rolleyes: )

    But either way, if it happens, there will be a much better camera involved, and more variety. Anyways, if you guys like it let me know and I'll keep more stuff coming.

    LMAO i will pass on "nipple pink" hahahahahha

    no thanks

    You know, you say this now but check out the car shows in a few years and see if you don't the the new hotness being nipple pink. See, I'm years ahead of the curve, then you'll look back and say "Damn, The Performer was right, that could be me on the front page of "slickest slabs""

    Just sayin...

  9. Ford must have paid BIG bucks for this

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    It's a goddamn fiesta...

    I remember seeing a ford rep talking about their new line of fiestas, the dude was so ignorant he stated "I'm personally into racing cars, and the new fiesta is a great racing car, it's got the spoiler, racing stripes, and low profile tires, it's definitely a car racers are going to like"

    Really? Spoilers, racing stripes, and low profile tires are what makes a racing car? I guess the stickers and other bolt on's have some hidden lines and wiring going off into the engine that you cant see from the outside. I'd be scared to put a monster sticker on them, it might over heat the engine from too much horsepower gain. Oh yeah, you know that bitch is FAST!

    It's a fucking fiesta... :fool:

  13. what do you prefer.

    in Fabrication, Fiberglass, Etc

    Don't use fleece. Use Ponte. No more suggestions of fleece from here on out.

    Bondo brand resin and mat is supposedly pretty poor quality stuff, but for the one time project, and for a beginner, you wont notice a difference. You might have a little extra work for yourself in the end, (sanding wise) but that's exactly what a beginner needs to be honest.

    If you plan on doing alot of glass work, put your money into quality supplies. If you're doing a small box, or some kickpanels and that's probably the end of your fiberglass experience, I wouldn't waste my money.

  15. Refurbished Security System?

    in Security Center - Car/Home Alarms, devices, tactics, tips....

    Posted

    I was looking at several refurbished viper alarm systems. They are obviously less expensive than the brand new ones. Is it a bad idea to buy refurbished or no? The one I am looking at has a 2 year warranty as well.

    Thanks,

    Sam

    Refurbished and brand new ones are going to have the same odds of breaking, so why not go for the cheaper route? The 2 year warranty sounds worth it as it is.

    im gettin 6k simply because it has the most output i have seen and still looks hella sick!
    Come on people, do some research already. You can compare all the color charts you want, but depending on WHO you buy the HID's from you're pretty much getting nothing but useless responses from everyone here. You're 8000k from store A might be the same as a 5000k from store B. Then you're just shit out of luck on what you bought.

    Can see the effort put out on trying to help Logan, but you mind saying WHO you're getting your 6K's from? Like I said, kinda depends on where you get them to say what shade they are actually.

    I think we can all agree that numbers are just some decorative symbols the chinese like to write really big on their sweat shop made products in hopes that we see a big number and buy it.

  19. Sealed beam to Projector conversion question!

    in Interior / Exterior / Paint - Detailing, washing, waxing,tricks of the trade!

    Posted

    Yep, You got it figured out. You just need to go to the auto parts store and hope you can get an H4. Should be pretty common, but they might be pricey. From what I can remember around all the parts stores the H4's they sell are supposed to be high performance off road bulbs.

    Try your local O'reillys and napa. If no luck there then autozone, then advanced. Make sure you ask the people that work there as well. Sometimes they have stuff like that in the back.

    Very good read Performer. :good:

    So doing a retro-fit kit is thee best way to maximize the light output from HID's, and to keep glare out of on-coming eyes.

    Again, good read.

    Now don't get me wrong, I personally can't stand the look of projectors on certain vehicles (Mine)

    I personally love the look of a bulb conversion on trucks like mine and when ever I decide to get new bulbs and go with HID that's what I'll do.

    I just posted that link to show what the REAL color ranges went to.

    "My shit's bright, it's 30,000k."

    Oh ok... :rolleyes:

    This is like asking what should I get "beef and broccoli, Or sweet and sour chicken?" Well it depends on what chinese restaurant you go to right?

  24. Drop The World-Lil Wayne (ft. Eminem)

    in Tunez - All things music related

    Posted

    I did a search and no way in hell you guys haven't ran across this yet...

    I read that Wayne's cd got shipped out by amazon on accident so I guess the songs are leaked.

    Anyway, I think this is probably my new favorite lil wayne song. Most of his other songs are shall I say "f*ing retarded" This one seems to actually have a theme to it.

    I took a look at the track with the oscilloscope on VLC and I must say the bass looks EXTREMELY low and promising. I wouldn't be surprised to see Meade bumping this in his up coming demo videos.

    ^That's just my prediction, ya heard it from me first. ;)
