    2012 season so far

    Seattle 70-77 in the A.L.
    Houston 48-99 in the N.L.


    Yes it is going to be a brutal few years for the Astros much like what Seattle has been through the last 4-5 seasons.

    I'm loving it because the Astros will pad the Ranger's against the other divisions. Instead of playing the other teams more we can just beat up on the Astros.

    I've already got plans for 886s in the front :spy:

    And 200-300lbs isn't very much for a truck.

    Interesting point.

    After going to Bridgeport this weekend and getting everything cleaned up for the most part I noticed that my truck sounds different. It sounds like the power steering is low and the pump is whining but it is fine. I know that water kills the alternator but does it whine before it dies? Any other ideas of what it could be?

    Muddy water and dirt and shit in any of the pulleys will make goofy noises. Just ask Adam.

    If you come by I will want to go to world of beers so I don't drink alone. Then drink some Revolver and Live Oak on tap. Hmmm... Maybe a mini meet?
