police troubles
BigJohnny replied to brewer_brewer's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
as I recall, and the details are a little foggy here, so please look into it, but you don't have to pay for your impounded car if you don't give them your details, and your not required at all to give them your name and shit. There is a way to prove the car is yours without giving them details and having to pay. seriously look into it, cause I know the law exists, just not sure of exact details, but you do not have to pay to retrieve your impounded car. -
did you see this on tosh.o lastnight?

California budget
BigJohnny replied to redbaron80's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
couldn't agree more... it has it's uses, but there should be limits, like max 6mos - 1yr or something. I was on welfare when I first moved out with my gf. I got her pregnant, she had to live in a group home, so we had to move in together when my daughter was born, and I couldn't find a job. But I did, I was on welfare for 2 years, hated every min of it and worked my ass off to get things straightened away. Finally got a job and have been working ever since. I live in a shitty neighbourhood, the "projects" across the street from me is full of low life scum who leech off the system, neglect their kids, drink, party, and buy fancy clothes for themselves.... why the fuck should my tax money be paying them?? I should be allowed choose what demographic gets my cut of the taxes, cause I sure as hell wouldn't give it to those assholes. -

heres one for you, and I damn near started some shit with this guy, I'm sitting behind this dick at a stoplight, the light goes green and he just sits there. the fuckin douche is on his phone, and this INFURIATES me, so I honk my horn, then the mother fucker gives me the finger for honking as his dumbass sits at the light. Then I pull up next to him at a stop sign further down the road, and he gives me the finger again.... I swear man, I was ready to follow this guy and literally land my ass in jail again. -

here is the thread to my blue climate control conversion for my car. I've done my defrost switch, and interior lights but haven't gotten to my gauges because I have a reverse glow set, and I haven't done my door panels because I haven't gotten to take those off yet http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=47529

Wiring an amp meter with shunt + voltmeter
BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
well thats what I was going to do, I mean how do I mount it safely, not wire it up. its a solid exposed piece of metal that will be connected to a high current cable.... I don't want that coming loose and hitting something. I'm thinking I might be able to just bolt it directly onto the alternators terminal post, and connect my wire from there to the battery. -

how do the stinger meters work? Do they not use a shunt? -
So what would you do?
BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
ya, I'm really considering telling this guy to go stick it, when he originally contacted me he was going on like I stole it saying I didn't own it.......well, I didn't "Own" it, But I didn't know that when someone else bought it, they would be charged rental fees......not really my problem though. a smart person would figure out that if it was left behind by a tech, then clearly I didn't "own" it.... why would they pick up something thats mine. -

BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I'm an ass, I should have told him to go fuck himself, but I told him the best I can do is $75/month for the next 3 months..... and it certainly isn't going to be of any high priority. the more I think about it, the more I want to wash my hands of it, but if the cops did get involved, isn't it stolen goods? Rogers left it behind, but it was paid for by the tech who never picked it up. -

BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Well I guess the deal is, even though he has paid me for it, if he uses it he will have to pay rental fees for having the box. I didn't know this. I've told him I'd give him his money back but it's gonna have to be payments, and he's expecting me to give it all to him by the 16th... hell I won't have that kind of money by the end of the month. Either way, I still don't think I should have to give him his money back, he just jumped right on this, asked no questions, didn't bother trying to get me down in price, nothing. I'm more worried about the cops. -

BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
well this is what I'm thinking, but he is threatening to call the cops if I don't do this by friday, and he wants to return the unit to rogers. I told him if he wants his money back he is going to have to send it back to me to return it to rogers. I'm sure as hell not letting someone else do it. I also told him he is going to have to accept payments, cause I don't have the cash. -

BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I have to say, I was not mis-leading with the ad, I mentioned that it had been left behind by a tech, but rogers is now telling him that i had no right to sell it, even though that story was previously something different. This is why I hate rogers. -

BigJohnny replied to BigJohnny's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Apparently he is saying i didn't own it. But the serial number was previously checked out and was determined the unit was free and clear to be added to an account. -
long story short, I had a Rogers PVR that was left behind by a tech when they disconnected my stuff. I've had it in my posession for over a year, and it has been paid for by the tech who left it behind. There were many attempts at contacting that tech, but in the end, he never ended up coming over to get the PVR. A couple of weeks ago I had sold it on kijiji. The ad clearly said "rogers explorer 8300 PVR" word for word. the story was explained, and the unit is able to be added to someones account it's been looked into, and is legit. well I don't have a HD tv, but was told by rogers that it was a HD box, and was paying HD box prices for it. The guy who bought it simply said he wanted it, asked no questions, and the transaction was made. I shipped it out to him, and he received it saying it's not the HD box. They have a SD and HD version of the box, and this was the SD unit. Now he has managed to look me up, and call me (which I didn't answer) and has now sent me a money request through paypal for his money back. I didn't rip the guy off, the unit wasn't mis-advertised, and I was unaware of their being two different versions. So what should I do? I don't have the money to give it back, I paid my bills. I don't think I should give him his money back since i don't feel I did anything wrong.
