    The Meme not a Meme Thread Part DEUX

    A healthy adult bladder can hold up to 16 ounces (approximately 473 mL) comfortably. 1-1/3 cans of beer. Wouldn't think a pair of depends could hold much more than that. :drinks:

    Roswell NM Flood Video

    I have something to add to this event. I thought about not posting tbis, it's just too curious. 2 days after the flooding my son, Jim was in the back yard chopping some wood for the burn pit. He heard a light fluttering noise when something landed on his shoulder. His initial response was to...

    Name the movie.

    The Man Who shot Liberty Valence is one of the 5. "THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962) he has died and the film's story is told in flashback by James Stewart who has come to his funeral." Grey area here as Wayne did appear in the film. The one not on your list.... The Alamo.

    Name the movie.

    A twist... Without looking it up; Name the 5 movies that John wayne died in. (He was actually portrayed as dead in 9 films but 4 of the 9 were off screen).

    I could make the claim that it's the best pizza i've ever eaten.

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    Ever tried Dions? Pizza is like cars on opposite ends of the spectrum. The taste is all in your mouth. Regions across the US will swear they have the best barbeque, the best charbroiled ribeye, the best cheeseburger. Those that can't experience what is claimed to be the best, will probably never...

    Hobby over for me I fear.

    In the same boat, my friend. I've restorded a number of vehicles in my 69 years, but started with physical detriments since I was 17. I'm paralized on my left side after breaking my neck. After I hit about 60, past injuries caught up with my bullet proof days. Please don't give up on what...

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    Though no one wants to see a driver killed during the persuit of (his) passion, setting limits only diminishes the sport(s). These (guys) know full well the risks involved. That's part of the allure. All NHRA records set for top fuel class since 2008 are based on assumptions. There's really no...

    RE: Notches on brake rotors

    Please note the location. All notches shown are either in line or exactly centered between two lug holes. If these notches were for ballancing, they would be in different locations around the circumfrance of the rim mounting surface. Also note that rotor wear is not constant about the...

    RE: Notches on brake rotors

    I'm leaning more towards these being a positioning guide for hole locations. If it were for ballancing, the size and location of the notch would vary. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing would remove any inballance. If these notches were used for ballancing, then why aren't all rotors...

    RE: Notches on brake rotors

    I'm having a hard time believing that a couple grams of material removed from a rotor is detrimental to it's overall performance and feel. Especially when the magnitude of noticible vibration occurs typically further from center axis. A gimmick to charge more? Hey, it's got a notch. You gotta...

    RE: Notches on brake rotors

    I found this and hope it sheds some light on your question. "Some manufacturers, like Brembo, use a notch or a cut along the outer edge of the rotor during production to ensure balance. This notch is not a sign of imbalance but rather a deliberate manufacturing process to achieve perfect...

    RE: Notches on brake rotors

    Do they fit, and are they concentric? I see no reason for hogging out the holes other than a machining malfunction. Don't know if I'd trust these mounted and in use, tbough hub centricity seems to be correct. I'd take them back to the parts store and ask to see another set for a side by side...

    So....I took Fred to get new tires put on today - Ed story time!

    Virtually the same experience happened to me, Ed. Had new tires installed on my TJ. Thought all was well after the install. Paid up and jumped in. Backing out of the service bay, felt a weird wobble in the front end. Ended ùp with the two front tires and rims folded under. (in the middle of main...

    Are there any other scientists on the forum?

    I'm no scientist, but know full well how to implement in a real life environment, the fruits of their labors. Not a single soldiers life has been lost since this cab was engineered. We were hard pressed to see this done. Given with older technologies, our troops were vunerable in combat...
