Yes, but now that I'm up to operating temp... Note the 301 redirect when I enter "google.com". Google's server just redirects to their www subdomain.

To simplify my original post, the "www." pretext was an accident that people began believing was required in a URL, when in fact, it's not. So, no "www.", because it always has and always will be useless.

Don't even get me started...again! :censored: See Post #60

I haven't heard that in years! Spent 15 years of my life in NC. Welcome to DIYGK!

Probably. DOT 5.1 (polyethylene glycol) is also hygroscopic, while DOT 5 is (diorgano polysiloxane) is hydrophobic.

DOT 5.1 is polyethylene glycol based. DOT 5 is silicone-based. DOT 5 non-silicone is an oxymoron; DOT 5 fluid, by definition, contains at least 70% diorgano polysiloxane (silicone), by weight).

Hmm, that's interesting.

My boss, who's from Massachusetts, was giving me a hard time the other day because I was telling him to "cut the engine off" and "cut it back on". Apparently that's a southern US thing. My grandmother says "over yonder", and I spend many weekends "down home" where she grew up. I'm sure there...

I've had great luck on Ebay. Bought ski boots for $60 and skis for $90 last winter. Just recently bought a new HP power cord for my laptop for $25 and a 50mm enlarger lens for $11 shipped.

Ohh how I can't wait till I get to experience this for myself</sarcasm> :ack2:

Sounds like quite the experiences!

Thanks! I hate that!!

Oh yeah, so true. The coworkers are one of the few things I miss about working at the stealership. Not all of them, just a few :lolgoku: Interestingly enough, there are two other full time guys at this shop who've been in the business for decades. They're perfectly happy doing oil changes and...

Not a perfect day today, but it was my first "official" day at my new job- wrenching at an independent shop. The owner kind of threw be a bone and payed me under the table to work when there was extra work, since I quit my old job. He was happy enough with my work that he decided on Friday to...
