Ya, Kia Sportage would be my first choice ! - NOT!
It's smaller than my S-10 dd truck, and when I got that thing up on a lift it looks like a Tonka truck to me! It's got to be the '70's Honda civic' of the truck world. You have to be a parapeligic to sit in the back seat on a '70's civic! What's the solid front axle on it a broom-stick ? The front tires probably have little snap-rings on 'em so they roll and won't fall off!
Isn't the Sno-bowl-man like the tidy-bowl man that paddles around in da crapper in his dingy ? Then goes 'muddin' in the septic tank with his Kia Sportage ?

I remember those old ass Honda Civics, every time I saw one, it was sitting on the side of the road broke down.
As for the Kia, I call them the Kia Junkage.
I'm sure you'd piss him off if you asked him if he was the Sno-bowl-man!!!

I don't know about that man, (The Snoman).
He seems to put his foot in his mouth just about every time I write to him. I think he also has a memory problem, or he just doesn't want to admit the truth about certain things. I think he needs to get his head out of his hiney hole!!
If you were to go back and read some of his previus posts, I think you would really know where I'm coming from, but since you can relate to me and I can relate to you, it most likely won't be nessesary. (DAM, I Forgot How To Spell That Word)!!!!!
I'm going to start addressing him as the (Snomam), or maybe the (Sno-bowl-man) as you put it.

Must be back at work again. All work and no play would make me a dull boy.
I love my hours, Mon. thru Thurs., 10 hour days with sometimes an option to work 12 hrs. a day on the same days.
Three days off a week, every week, just like a mini vacation to me!!!!
I know what you are thinking, shut the hell up, it must be nice. Yes indeed, it is!!!!!!!!!

Too windy ?? It's never too windy to go fishing!!
Worst 'windy' weather I went was 5-6 foot seas off Fort Liquordale one winter - Me & old Bob in the Bear, and a big 'ol 80-foot trawler were the only boats on the water from horizon to horizon. We were drift fishing for King Macks. We had 6-oz weights on our lines and couldn't keep the lines on the bottom! It was about 280 feet of water on the third reef out. You could see our lines being taken by the wind cutting across 3 waves from us. Needless to say we didn't catch Sh$t, except for a 3-lb Hog Snapper on my rod. I've never taken a hog snapper on a bait before or since! I haven't heard anyone take one on a line & bait neither. Spearfishing in the Keys I've taken a butt-load of 'em. The give you the perfect shot as soon as the see you. for a second or so they give you a perfect profile shot. - He who hesitates is lost after that first second!
We had fun though. Nothing like a rough ride on the ocean in the Winter! The adrenaline rush! It's like a roller coaster ride that you might just not come back from! There was a small craft advisory, and at 25-foot length we were it! I did get a few funny looks from 'ol Bob on the way out, - you know, the looks you can read exactly what he's saying with just 'the look': "what the *** are we doing out here today ??" We were both the sort that never uttered those type of words back then. We just gave each other 'the looks', and we knew what was meant. - I think we were 'psycho' or something like that.

We're of the same mind brother! I can relate! I did read through some of the older posts that I had an interest in a few days ago. - Don't argue with egg-heads dude! they just don't make mistakes!
I'm still gonna try to get some info from him on Comp's 4X 262 cams though! I haven't had much luck getting decent info on the subject of cams. The Comp cams tech guy I got sucks!... unless I'm knowledgeable enough to be able to answer my own question when I call him, he can't help me. Some of the high performance forums ask you too many technical specs on cylider heads, valves, ect... I don't want to dissasemble the engine to figure out which cam to buy. I'm going to get the whole kit from Comp, so I'll be replacing the timing gear set, chain, lifters, and push rods all at the same time anyway. - I suppose I'll have to visit some 'Haiti Lady' fortune teller, and have her tell me what the chicken bones have to say on the subject!!
Don't let the sno people get to ya dude! It ain't nothin but a thing!

I wasn't going out on my boat, just thought of fishing from the shore line along with some boozin and wheelin.
The biggest reason why I didn't go, was because I had a baaaad hangover!!!!
Winter? There's really no such thing as Winter in Florida. (warm temps.)

I don't have anything against Veterans day, but my Sister has a real nice job and she gets off on all of the bull#### holidays that I call them.
I know I don't have to tell you about them, because I know that you can (relate) on this topic.

I know exactly what you mean about the so-called Techs in this world.
Just like taking you truck to an (ASE Certified Mechanic) these days, most of them can't answer your question properly or much yet fix your problem.
I know those cam kits don't cost you a fortune, but it would be nice to know what would be the right one for your engine.
The (Snomam) does in a way piss me off sometimes, but I know for sure that I piss him off too!!!! It's not like I have to see him in person every day like at work!!!! THANK *** I'd end up kicking his ass and then get fired over it, but I'd have a BIG smile on my face if I did!!

Hell yes! It was a brutal 59 degrees a few weeks ago! It may even dip to an Icy 40 in Jan or Feb.
We lived in Connecticut a while back, and went through the bad blizzard of '69. Five feet of snow on the ground after a week! You never really get over the northern white Christmases after you been there.!
Standing outside sweating at 82 degrees on Christmas day in Fla just feels all wrong! I did put lights all over my coconut palm though!

I hear ya! It's the same in the computer business. Floks can have certifications as long as their arm but they can't answer anything but the simplest questions for ya.
...just don't eat that yellow sno dude!
Remember: It's better to get pissed off, than pissed on!

It got a little cold last night at work. (Thurs./ Fri. morning)
It is supposed to get in the upper 20's Fri. night here in MD. The cold doesn't bother me at all, but I still would rather sweat like a hog.
Snow, I love when it snows its ass off. That's really the only thing that I like about Winter.
