I've found an excellent machine shop. Rebuilt my engine for $3800.
Mine is still running strong. The transmission went out a little over a year ago. Took it to Brownies. They tried to rip me off. Then towed it to Craigs Transmission on Keowee Street. They did it for half the price and it runs great today.
I think trannies are Ford's achilles. My F-150 lost it's as well.
"When civilizations start to die they go insane. Let the ice sheets in the Arctic melt. Let the temperatures rise. Let the air, soil and water be poisoned. Let the forests die. Let the seas be emptied of life. Let one useless war after another be waged. Let the masses be thrust into extreme poverty and left without jobs while the elites, drunk on hedonism, accumulate vast fortunes through exploitation, speculation, fraud and theft. Reality, at the end, gets unplugged. We live in an age when news consists of Snooki’s pregnancy, Hulk Hogan’s sex tape and Kim Kardashian’s denial that she is the naked woman cooking eggs in a photo circulating on the Internet.-Chris Hedges "that the mainstream media and the government officials were all bribed or intimidated by Merck’s lawyers, lobbyists, and advertising budget into averting their eyes or holding their tongues. But from 2004 onwards, huge numbers of America’s toughest trial lawyers were suing Merck for billions based on Vioxx casualties – didn’t they notice the dramatic drop in the national death rate? “ “The inescapable conclusion is that in today’s world and in the opinion of our own media, American lives are quite cheap, unlike those in China.” “Besides,” says Unz laughing, “it shows the stupidity of our political leaders that they didn’t seize upon this great opportunity. They should have just renamed Vioxx the ‘Save Social Security Drug,’ and distributed it free in very large doses to everyone, starting on their 65th birthday. Maybe they should have even made it mandatory, three times per day. "So the CEO is the point failure mechanism where if he or she goes bad, almost everything may go bad as well. So all those things that we call internal and external controls, all report to the CEO and the CEO therefore can, as I’ll describe, use compensation, hiring, firing, praise, and such to produce the environment that will commit, create allies for his fraud. Now, note that what I’m saying. The CEO, the art of this is not to defeat your controls. The elegant solution as in mathematics is to suborn the controls and turn them into your most valuable allies. And therefore, for example, when you’re running accounting control fraud where your weapon of fraud is accounting and that weapon of choice in finance is accounting. You’re going to want to hire the most prestigious accountants as your outside auditors because it is precisely their reputation that is most valuable when you can suborn them. -Bill Black, Control Fraud
Why does the boiling frog story apply to people if not to actual frogs? The answer is simple. Human beings are built to adapt to new conditions. Generally speaking, they don't notice gradual change, they simply get used to it. People were designed by Nature to react quickly to sudden changes. They were not designed to notice that this year, and for many years before that, conditions got a little worse than they were the year before. Humans live in an eternal present. This observation is well-known to those who study such things. It is not original with me.
A second incredible advantage is the CEO can optimize the firm as a weapon of fraud. And the< CEO can do that. Basically, this falls into two big categories. One, you can put it in assets that have no readily verifiable market value because then it's a lot easier to inflate asset valuations and to hide real losses. And the second thing you do is grow like crazy. And, of course, that is the essence of something your listeners have all heard about, and that is a Ponzi scheme. And so these accounting control frauds have strong Ponzi-scheme like elements, which is why they tend to cause such catastrophic losses. Now combine this with the F-35 program and you get the biggest fraud possible. Each 'Flying Piano' costing $161 Million with only 20% of flight tests completed. Well over $1 Trillion with Op costs included....;}
US Not Reporting All Afghan Attacks The Associated Press has learned that the U.S.-led military coalition in Afghanistan is under-reporting the number of times that Afghan soldiers and police open fire on American and other foreign troops. The coalition routinely reports attacks in which a coalition soldier is killed by an Afghan in uniform. But it does not report the instances in which an Afghan wounds U.S. or NATO troops or misses his target. Officials acknowledge the attacks are a worrisome problem for the U.S. and its military partners as they work increasingly closely with Afghan troops in preparation for handing off security responsibility. The AP learned that just last week, two U.S. soldiers were wounded when Afghan policemen opened fire on them. The Afghans were quickly killed, and the incident was not reported by the international coalition. Copyright 2012 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved. Limited Hang Out. Those soldiers were killed. "While unacceptable, the military’s systematic under-reporting of these incidents is not surprising. Support for the war – which has hit all-time lows in recent weeks – depends upon favorable information getting out. If the information doesn’t reflect well on the war, it is liable to be hidden from the people. Last 5 posts by John Glaser
We just had a no-growth quarter, but it doesn't count because the BEA used a custom deflator. And thus we are forced to conclude that life in 21st century America is like living in a hall of mirrors. Every reflection we see is distorted almost beyond recognition. After it is final, the official 1st quarter GDP number will be cited over and over again by economists everywhere. Every one of these economists will ignore the deflator distortion. Obama will use the number to tell us the economy is growing, but not fast enough to create more jobs. The hall of mirrors just goes on and on and on. Welcome to the Fun House. Or, to borrow the title of one of Kurt Vonnegut's books, Welcome to The Monkey House. Domestic & Foreign.....two sides of the same coin....wake up and lie. BTW, you can turn on your tv and be the 99,000 +1 to be watching CNBC....LMFAO....8D

On the heels of that announcement, more details have emerged and they suggest the Federal security apparatus has completely lost its marbles. Via Off Grid Survival The Illinois Department of Transportation is testing an emergency plan to shut off access into and out of downtown Chicago. The plan uses a network of highway security gates that are designed to shut down all traffic coming in and out of Chicago in the event of a terrorist attack. The Illinois DOT is warning truckers that it’s best to avoid the city during the NATO Summit in Chicago May 20-21. There will be a number of driving restrictions and rolling street closures, and the Illinois DOT is testing highway barricades that will block access to all major highways in and out of Chicago.
HAPPY MAY DAY CHICAGO!!!...;} Starting May 1st, a full three weeks before the NATO Summit, the Federal Government will be setting up a Militarized Red Zone in the streets of Downtown Chicago. In a Chicago Sun Time Article: The head of Chicago’s NATO Host Committee said Thursday she was blindsided by the federal government’s decision to create a militarized “Red Zone” in the Loop to protect federal buildings in the run-up to the May 20-21 summit at McCormick Place. The news of federal agents on the streets of Chicago isn’t sitting well with many. From last months urban warfare drills, to residents being warned of possible citywide evacuations, the city of Chicago is starting to look like a city that may already be under martial law.
The Associated Press has learned that the U.S.-led military coalition in Afghanistan is under-reporting the number of times that Afghan soldiers and police open fire on American and other foreign troops. Yes I did see that mentioned somewhere this morning or last night.

On Tuesday in New York Romney said he would have made the same call and criticized Obama for making the issue political. Politics aside, a senior U.S. official cautioned that no matter what pacts are signed, "Afghanistan is still going to be the third poorest country in the world." "This is still going to be tough," the official said, adding that the expectation was that the Afghan government will be able to maintain basic security. That skepticism is shared by the European Union's ambassador to Kabul, who said earlier on Tuesday that Western aid that has been poured into Afghanistan will have a limited impact as long as governance remained poor and corruption widespread. Afghanistan's government doesn't seem to grasp the magnitude of major challenges just two years ahead of the pullout, Vygaudas Usackas told Reuters in an interview. "The Afghans have to be in the driving seat," he said. "Probably we made them complacent." That's All Folks....;}

Perfect: May Day, 1971.... "Hey, it was right around the time that the loss in Vietnam was sinking in. The Establishment figured they’d take their victories any way they could, and celebrate them shamelessly. Thanks to the brave reporting by the New York Times, Americans were shown a photograph of an enemy-saboteur at work–some scared looking fool letting the air out of someone’s car tire–to let the Silent Majority know what was at stake here: The subsequent triumphalism was embarrassing even by American triumphalist standards. Here’s the AP reporting below what victory looked like: “As the rush hour began, traffic flowed smoothly…The demonstrators conceded police and military forces had prevailed.” Keep this all in mind, Occupy protestors. It’s been this bad and worse before. They will go further than you can possibly imagine–and the media will lie and cover the oligarchy’s backside every step of the way. It’s a class war of attrition, so be prepared for the long haul.
Fast Forward to May Day, 2012 Obama sneaks in and out of Kabul in the darkness of night to announce the End of the Afghan Invasion. "The billionaire elite who run this country are not stupid. During the Vietnam War and Watergate eras they saw quite clearly how dangerous to the centers of power television in particular can be when the medium is at least partly in the hands of real journalists and other people who care about objective truth. Abby Hoffman knew it, which is why he once said, "A modern revolutionary group heads for the television station, not the factory. It concentrates its energy on infiltrating and changing the image system." That's what this relentless glorification of vacuous celebrities is all about. Corporate America cannot risk the media focusing on serious issues like our hollowed out economy, our rapidly changing climate, the degradation of the environment and wars being fought in the name of profits, so it gives the masses glitz and spectacle to keep their minds occupied instead. -BillHicksisdead

If there is one thing that would possibly get me to vote for Buddy Roemer and/or the Hemp Party, it would be the dozens of ways, tacit and otherwise, that this administration made peace with the savagery of the previous one, and then proceeded to find ways to be savage itself that seem more capable of stroking the liberal-hawk G-spots. We begin with Jose Rodriguez on 60 Minutes. Rodriguez once headed the CIA counter-terrorism office and was also its director of operations.

Why Obama was in/out of Kabul between 2 & 6 AM....;} Martyr attack targeting” Green Village” huge military Camp ends with success; more than 43 invaders killed KABUL, May 02 - The operation was planned hurriedly after finding out about Obama’s “surprise visit” to Afghanistan what was secret visit about which Mujahideen came to know in the later hours of last night and, as a result, “the Green Village” one of the most important and heavily-guarded military base of so-called ISAF, was the quickest target for Mujahideen to smash. A team of four heroic combatants of Islamic Emirate Ahmad (Parwan province), Muhammad Raza (Kabul), Abdul Bari (Wardak) and Hameed Khan (Takhar), armed with heavy and small arms and explosives, stormed the target, the “Green Village” with Ahmad slamming his explosive-laden vehicle at the gate of the base, rocking the entire base and removing all the security checks and barriers besides flattening some of the rooms where a great number of the security guards were based.

Taliban attack in Afghan capital kills at least 7 By AMIR SHAH, Associated Press – 4 hours ago KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Taliban insurgents attacked a compound housing foreigners in the Afghan capital Wednesday, killing seven people, hours after President Barack Obama made a surprise visit and signed a pact governing the U.S. presence after combat troops withdraw.
The violence began around 6 a.m. in eastern Kabul with a series of explosions and gunfire ringing out from the privately guarded compound known as Green Village that houses hundreds of international contractors. Shooting and blasts shook the city for hours as militants who had stormed into the compound held out against security forces, according to an official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information. Taliban version: "armed with heavy and small arms and explosives, stormed the target, the “Green Village” with Ahmad slamming his explosive-laden vehicle at the gate of the base, rocking the entire base and removing all the security checks and barriers besides flattening some of the rooms where a great number of the security guards were based. Several dozen of the US-NATO and puppets cowardly forces security were killed and wounded. Three out four martyrdom-seeking Mujahideen, after getting into the base, initiated fighting with rockets, heavy and light machine guns, hand grenades and explosive vests till 10 a.m. local time, targeting those inside and killing at least 34 US-Nato forces officers and soldiers as well as taking out more than 9 puppets security guards
Listen to this BS: "Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid claimed responsibility for the attack. "This was a message to Obama that those are not real Afghans that are signing documents about this country," Mujahid said. "The real Afghan nation are those people that are not letting foreign invaders stay in this country or disrespect the dignity of our country." However, because such complex attacks usually take significant advance planning, it also was possible that the Taliban were capitalizing on fortunate timing. Mujahid said the target was a "foreign military base." No one was killed except school children....please. And ' the Taliban were capitalizing on fortunate timing.' The Occupiers are clueless. Their Leaders are evil.
I'll havde to re check but notice the implication by AP of One Attacker/One Bomb. Al Jazeera has this: "At least seven people have been killed in several large explosions in the Afghan capital Kabul, shortly after US President Barack Obama paid a surprise visit to the country."
"One of our mujahideen detonated his car in front of a military base," Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told the Reuters news agency in a phone call. "Other mujahideen are inside the base fighting. There are very heavy casualties for the enemy. Only schoolchildren live in the Green Zone....;}
Busy day for US Embassy: "The US embassy in Kabul, said its embassy was "under lockdown" and warned staff to "take cover, move away from the windows". "Duck and cover here at the embassy. Not a drill - avoid the area," the US embassy said on Twitter."
Featured Project:Green Village In 2008 Stratex began the design and construction of Green Village in Kabul, Afghanistan. The intent is to provide life support to International contractors who are mobilizing and stationed in and around Kabul Afghanistan. The creation of Green Village was intended to bring western style living accommodations and standards to our clients stationed in Kabul. Within a short period of time and a booked house, contractors began to call Green Village “Pleasantville”. This secure base camp has not grown to its full potential and with owned adjoining lands, Stratex intends to set the country standard as the leading life support provider and best value. Green Village has a wide array of of anemities and offerings that we believe make it the only place to stay when you're on a job. Green Village Anemities: We've strived to make Green Village your home away from home. Green Village offers single/double occupancy rooms. The layouts for the rooms contain a living room, private bath and a bedroom. All rooms are accommodated with a Queen Size bed or Twin Size beds, wall lockers, a coffee table, entertainment center, television, DVD Player, Cable TV and a couch. Every building is supplied with wireless Internet as with its offices. Green Village is SIPR NET, NIPR NET capable, via either microwave or fiber optics. Green Village provides a 24 hour dedicated security detachment of professionally trained, former military European and Nepalese Ghurka’s. This armed security detail provides multiple gate guards, static posts, vehicle search’s, ID checks at multiple gates, roving interior patrols, Private Security Details (PSD) teams upon client requests (24 hour notice), certified drivers and language assistance.
till 10 a.m. local time, targeting those inside and killing at least 34 US-Nato forces officers and soldiers as well as taking out more than 9 puppets security guards. The operation came as a response to Obama’s visit to Afghanistan and was a worst single-day loss for the US-Nato terrorists after Kabul operation in which Mujahideen had targeted the main ISAF base, and a series of embassies, parliament, presidential house and a number of the enemy’s military bases and posts in Kabul city. It is known to all that no civilian can show up even hundreds of maters away from the any military facility and, in particular, such military facility with strategic importance, no way! Thus the western-influenced mainstream media claims about civilian casualties are absolutely false and everyone knows it." But notice that the Only casualties are school children....walking by...at 6 AM.
500 Kiloton Hydrogen Bomb Goes Missing in a World of Absurdly High Tech Surveillance By CRONKITE – Wed May 2, 2012 10:38am – No Comments – 22 views “I will keep this short as possible. A single nuclear weapon has “gone missing” as of last week, one of four missing but this one “more missing” than the others. The Thames Valley Police, famous for their fictional representations in the Colin Dexter detective novels, detained a high ranking government security officer, department to remain unnamed, at the behest of what we are told is the Home Secretary. …” Just in case that NATO/Chicago thing gets out of hand.

"If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you're not a racist, you'll need to vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you're not an idiot."

The signing is part of the process of these treaties going into effect. Democrat Example of a treaty not going a POTUS' way: Wodrow Wilson supported the League of Nations and Congress shot him down. Signing a treaty is only a step in the process off establishing a valid treaty between us and another nation.
BS. It's almost always up to the administration in power to negotiate treaties. The Senate then ratifies it. The GHW Bush administration negotiated most of the terms of NAFTA.

This is no joke. It will be enforced for May 19 to May 21. The flight advisory was issued by the Federal Aviation Administration. The advisory bans non-commercial aircraft from flying within 10 nautical miles of downtown Chicago at altitudes below 18,000 feet. A nautical mile is about one minute of arc of latitude along any meridian. It amounts to 1,852 meters, or about 1.15078 standard miles.

In addition, the restrictions include an outer ring from 10 to 30 miles around downtown Chicago. Only planes arriving or departing at local airports will be allowed within that outer ring. Flight training, seaplanes, and other types of flights will be banned from the outer ring. Any plane violating the flight restrictions will be intercepted. "The United States Government may use deadly force against the airborne aircraft, if it is determined that the aircraft poses an imminent security threat," the advisory says. # 500 Kiloton German Hydrogen Bomb Goes Missing, page 1 http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread836454/pg1Cached You +1'd this publicly.
