  1. You said nut lube. Sorry, had to. Been playing for about 20 years. I have a 97' Gibson Les Paul Standard, a 1966 Gibson Melody Maker and a 2003 Fender Telecaster Custom 72' Reissue. I've also got a ****** 100watt Fender solid state half stack and a Sovtek Mig60 with a 2-12 cab. Sovtek sounds amazing.
  2. I didn't make this @!*% up dog, chill out. I didn't start it I was simply replying to something within this thread. Sorry I blew your mind with my infinite wisdom. I do appreciate you obviously skipping straight to my post and not reading anything before mine. " Interesting I would have thought Obama would have backed Kayne like he did Michael Jordan and that black professor. It wouldn't be the first time Obama had played the race card. Seems like theres a lot of colored celebrities doing rebellious attention-getting things lately (Serena Williams). Enough is enough of this white guilt bull@!*%." "hmm.. i think you're seeing something that isn't there.. hatred can be so powerful. good luck with that." "No hatred here, just objective observation. From Dreams of My Father: "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites." From Dreams of My Father: "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race." From Dreams of My Father: "There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white." From Dreams of My Father: ; "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names." From Dreams of My Father: "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela." From Dreams of My Father: "The emotions between the races could never be pure; even love was tarnished by the desire to find in the other some element that was missing in ourselves. Whether we sought out our demons or salvation, the other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart." Response to a quote: "The point I was making was not that Grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person..." From Dreams of My Father: "That’s just how white folks will do you." Campaign: "Earlier in my college career, there was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the Black community I was somehow obligated to this community and would utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit this community first and foremost." "for one, i have not read his book. for two, quotes are out of context. for three, he was raised in America. out of all your quotes just 2 or 3 could be construed as racist without further text. " "Racism by definition is simply cultivating the view that a certain race is superior to others. By that definition I would say all the quotes are racist, regardless of context. Plus I think he was raised in Hawaii; not really representative of mainstream US public opinion at the time."
  3. Sorry, It was a Back to the Future reference.
  4. That thing does look amazing. I think the red interior is also ugly but it seems to be in perfect shape.
  5. I did extrusion and injection molding for 5 years in Ohio. Was a good job and paid well just got tired spending all day in a dark windowless factory. Moved to Florida and became a bartender on the beach. For some strange reason I sometimes miss the plastics industry.
  6. Colorado State University Multi-Medai Coordinator. Research and implement new learning technologies in the classroom. I also do a lot of video/audio production. Right now my main project is overseeing all the A/V in a new contruction project. Followed the lady here where she got her Ph.D. I finished my B.A. here and worked here as a student doing video production and just kinda rolled right into it. Got into A/V after playing in bands and doing a lot of DIY audio/video production. I get to play with a lot of cool toys all day and spend a lot of time at the computer. My other job is being a professional social alcoholic and showing 21 year olds that 34 year olds can still party much harder than them.
  7. "Colored"!?!?! Seriously? Does your pathfinder make it up to 88mph so you travel back to the 50's and use that term? Also, I think there is a difference between thinking your race is superior to others and simply working towards leveling the playing field for a race that has historically been ostracized, beaten, murdered and forced into slavery.
  8. Actually runs great so far. I've had it for a few months and no major problems. I done the tune-up thing, gave it a once over and had to put a new starter in it but that's about it. Probably look into getting the timing belt changed out soon. Guy I bought it from said he changed the water pump but didn't say anything about the timing belt. The water pump leaks a few drops everytime I turn it off but no big deal. I am at 190,000 miles right now so timing belt woudn't hurt. Just want to be sure I want to put money into it first. Right now it's my daily driver. Actually not too bad on the highway.
  9. Found this on my local Craigslist. Would this be worth it for just the front grill and side step bars? I'm looking to put some of this stuff on my 92. Looks like it may have some other decent parts too. Anyone in the area, might be worth it to check out. http://fortcollins.craigslist.org/cto/1322176471.html]
  10. thanks! he said it was a ten digit number but sounded like he knew what it was. I'll try one more time with this info.
  11. So I talked to the Nissan dealership a second time, I gave him the 25020 part number, told him where it was located on the instrument cluster and what it does, he said he has it listed as some kind of voltage amp and that it costs $120! He described it as the little silver box on the back with the three wires also. I think I will go the Radio Shack route and do the soldering job that is posted somewhere here, that costs 2 dollars. If that doesn't work I may look for one in a junk yard but there is no way I'm paying $120 for that part. Not even positive it is the voltage regulator but for 2 bucks I can't afford not to try it. I'm thinking it is because no matter how much I drive my temp gauge also never moves. Also, does anyone know an easy way to disable that annoying chime when the driver's door is open? That drives me crazy. Thanks for all the input. WIth all the great info on here it almost looks like I know what I'm doing.
  12. I'm in Old Town Fort Collins also. New to the pathfinder, may start to mod it soon when I learn a little more about it.
  13. So I've been following threads for changing the regulator for the gas and temp gauges, as mine do not work in my 92 Pathfinder. I called the Nissan dealership and they can't find nor have they heard of this part. I explained it to him, what it does, looks like and even the part # from one of the PDFs another poster provided us about how to change it. Is there a certain way to ask for this? I asked for the voltage regulator for the gas/temp gauges that is located behind the instrument cluster. I'll try radio shack as i heard it's a pretty generic part but I don't really want to tear my dash apart if I get the wrong thing. Thanks
  14. That's what I thought. Thanks!
