Thanks CA3LE. Always good work.

Are you turning anything off during testing that you have on during D/Ling?

Then you might give them a couple of days. But it is kind of the fishermans dream. No trailer. And go fishing on a whim. (Hit the brakes and turn right into the water) How cool. And the looks you would get. I bet they are not cheap!

Welcome to the forum user00265

I would have to hope that is a business, too steep for my blood.

What's the occasion? Who? Me? Not the class clown. Never! Could not. Do you know me or what?

Kleenex? What is wrong with the softer Puffs. Why did many people smoke? Adverising! Why did many people drink, same thing. Why are sports athletes, movie stars, etc.. so damned rich? How do you promote something. Advertising. What is the keyword in advertising, make it a household name. How did Coca, McDonalds, and the rest get that way? Come on there are much better burgers down the road. Why do kids scream until they get their way? "WE WANT TO GO TO MC DONALDS ! !" We want a happy meal. They sell toys, not good food. And at a very speedy rate. Do you realize that people would save $$ by driving the same old car, but they prefer to trade it in for gas mileage. (Now think about that one for a minute) Do they save the $400+ car payment on fuel savings? Or is it advertising? "Shiny new and better on gas", but repairs just went up and so did the insurance. Why do they advertise upside down in your car payments? You are upside down the second you sign the papers to buy it in the first place. And will stay there until you pay enough to pass the value in your payments. Pay the damned thing off. Then there is no upside down! And enjoy driving it for the same amount of time for free. My neighbor said he always wanted to own a classic pickup, and he also said one day he looked in the driveway, and noticed that he had owned it since 1985 (21 years). Very low mileage by the way. Aren't people funny.

I have to agree with Roco on this one water. The want would not be there except in part to peer pressure, Why do we even need electronics? Advertising peer pressure. Why do we want anything in the first place? Advertising says so. Why do we on average only own a home 5 years? Or a car for 2 years. The old one would have lasted quite a bit longer for much less. When you buy something new and shiny like the ad suggest's doesn't everybody ooh and aw how nice it looks. Why do women think they need to change their whole body hair tips to toe nails? Advertising says so, it is in every commercial and add and magazine you see. So to be glamorous as they advertise it becomes a want and necesity. People used to just want to buy a house and pay it off and retire. Where do that all go? Advertising. Just some thoughts.

OK, I started to post this last night, but for some reason I was having trouble getting into TMN. Another pic of the boat car, probably a dead giveaway. Except the year, which I would personally find hard to figure out myself. On the Chevette, they were heavy little cars ( I had to push my girlfriends one time by hand) and not bad on gas. A 4X4 pu rearended it to finish it off. (no not mine) Otherwise it was a pretty good little car. I just hate 4 cylinder cars. By the way it was a production vehicle.

Very cool CA3LE. Always on top of things, you the man!

Actually we are all proud of you Daiquirii, good to hear some just like to have fun without it. I used to be a very hard core drinker, but now I only drink on occassion. And then they had better be prepared for me to sleep over, because I will need to. My eyelids will be the only thing that stops my partying when I start.

Now that is a interesting, story Roco. Not many people would have the guts to get out of their routine. A quick story. I bought a new truck, everybody says what a shiny new truck. You must be making some good money to do that. 8 years and 130,000 miles later people are saying, why do you drive an old truck, you need a new one! So I bought a new and different one, 4X4 1/2 ton instead of a 3/4 ton 2X. Again people say "what a shiny new truck. You must be making some good money to do that", aren't people funny.

Thats pretty good Daiquirii Well as long as it went somewhere else. By the way is "Daiquirii" a preference of drinks.

Welcome to the forum jackalyty,GUnit, and tracydexter. Enjoy your stay at TMN.

Then I wonder how it worked so well? hmmm...

I guess I understand wanting to be somebody, but please real speed tests or advertised speeds people. Thank you.

How the heck did we all miss Paladin's Birthday? Probably the oldest member on TMN!

Here is some cake and icecream for you. Hope there are enough candles!

Wish my speeds were that tight and high. Nice.

amc11890 try incredimail, they have a bounce e-mail. It makes it look like it is a dead acount and sends it back. Cleaned mine out pretty good in about 2 weeks. But it will slow down your speeds a little. I went from 50 a day, to maybe 1 or 2.

OK guess the boat car. And if you can figure out the brand on my first car, you already have the Automaker. That ugly thing cost me $150, no extra charge for the 50# of bondo.

Still getting those 2+Megs, huh deven? I think mine has petered some. I was actually able to test with the 579 file test, damned is it slow lately. :::..

Share the wealth Truckinslim. Just kidding, but you have done something, just not sure what. Anyway, nice speeds.

Nice speeds philp and using the 12Meg right of off the bat you did not have to fill your cache up to get there. Even faster in the evening with 2X the file size and in the afternoon. But the smart test is necesary for a new person to find out about where they should start.

Boy, I can not look at that too long cholla. It starts to hurt the eyes after a while. Kind of wierd though. Probably because the light squares around the A, and the dark squares arond the B. But they still look different to me.

No doubt Phlanax13, great speeds. And welcome to the forum
