    Need some Women advice guys.

    In all seriousness your friend Jonny Morasco I agree with all the posters who said meet a woman in a real place, not online. Maybe that makes us all old farts, but online is two-dimensional at best. One of the best things you can do is simply get active. Get out there. Volunteer! You'll...

    The Buy American thread

    No To China is a fabulous site that delineates how to shop for non-PRC goods and tells just why it's so important to do so. The creator of the site has Chinese parents, and he is steadfastly against supporting this evil regime. His site gives you the wherewithal to shop not in China. Give it a...

    The Buy American thread

    You know, in the end, what I think the PRC wants to really export is authoritarianism. Think they have no motive beyond their own shores? Wrong. Taiwan's representative democracy threatens them. Cause it shows their own people that Chinese cultures are not necessarily in conflict with an open...

    Agreed. So let's all demand a better manufacturing policy from our idiots in Washington. Germany is a Western democracy that has well-paid workers and equivalents of the EPA and OSHA. Yet they also have a manufacturing policy that motivates their biggest companies to keep factories at home...

    pTotally (and I mean totally) missing the main point. Support local jobs and tax base if you can (without compromise); buy Taiwan or Japan or France if you can't; This in no way tells you disregard free enterprise, market economies and free trade. Rather,the purpose here is remove the PRC where...

    I agree. And I don't mind buying goods from Europe, S. Korea, Taiwan, Japan, India--just not the friggin' PRC!

    The Buy American thread

    Last week I read a Forbes article that cited FTC and others sources estimating that the Peoples (Putative) Republic of China is the source of 80 to 86 percent of the world's counterfeit and knock-off goods. Many are not just shoddy con jobs, they're downright dangerous. And Amazon readily admits...

    Sorry! No offense intended. I've just tried dozens (and I mean dozens) of searches and not yet encountered one that was stale.

    Why do you like Mopars?

    This part will likely be repeated many times in this thread: Because they weren't Chevies, Fords or Pontiacs (yawn). Anyone who grew up feeling just a little bit different, alienated or shoved out of the popular crowd tended to find a perverse satisfaction that what we had was better, just not...

    Hunting for prospects

    Like most of you, I've perused all sorts of classic car classified sites. Some (topclassiccars) are just playgrounds for scammers listing cars they don't actually own. Craiglist seems to be dying out. Facebook has scads of prospects, but as we all know, the interface is clunky and aggravating...
