If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts.

Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Re: whatcha doing?
DerGolgo, you have my complete and utter condolences on your pain. I go in for surgery March 17th to have two separate discs removed, spacers inserted, cultured bone mortared in place and titanium affixed. All the while, this work will be done from the front of my neck, next to my throat.
It matters very little what I do. Sit, stand, turn my head, look forward etc, the pain is excruciating. The only thing making me functional at all is the insane level of pain tolerance I have. The discs I injured in August have scarred. The resultant scar tissue is filling the void around my spinal cord, putting pressure on it. Legs will randomly give out, hands, arms, etc.
As to what it feels like...you know that white shiny moment right after you have smashed a digit with a hammer, the pain is that sharp intense explosion that blinds out your vision? Yeah, that, only it never stopped.
At least they skipped the physio, going straight to the epidurals. The surgeon says they just wanted to get paid, the initial MRI showed I was going to need surgery.
I have found a sweet spot in the tub with just enough salt added to the water to let me float that takes a small bit of pressure off everything in my neck, it is enough to make me cry when I hit it, and abruptly fall asleep...

Yes. Rotors were getting on the thin side, below min. specs. Original rubber lines were looking shabby and felt like squeezing water balloons. Still have a lot of maintenance I'd like to do, also.

Re: whatcha doing?
I've been overhauling my appliances, trying to get my house and life together and working. It started when the fridge broke down one day, and one thing lead to another.
The Rainbow vacuum cleaner needed new bearings and separator, finally knocked that out. I got three Hoovers that don't work worth a shit, and the Rainbow really is actually kind of amazing. There's a little jet engine inside, and it uses water as a filter.
My kitchen tap has been fucked up for the last couple years, i finally fixed that. No need for big muscles or tools to operate it, now it works with one finger.
I finally fixed the huge crack in my ceiling, so no more scorpions dropping onto my bed in the middle of the night! Now they'll have to figure out another way to get into my bed.
I bought a massager at Goodwill for $5. Turns out these sell for north of $300! Made in Canada, it's a serious tool, expressely not recommended for home or self use. Perfect for me to use at home by myself! I used to get my nieces to clobber my back for me, but they've moved on and I can't get the cats to jump up and down on my spine. One part had worn out and disintegrated, a foam coupler. I made a new one out of Shoe Goo and the damn thing works like a jackhammer on muscle knots. Someone asked me how it was for sexy stuff, I said I don't know, I hope never to get this thing anywhere near my gentleman bits. It's powerful enough that I actually have to be careful with it.
I paid ten bucks at the same Goodwill for an Ab Lounge Sport, which is a recliner/sit-up machine. I've used it three times so far, and my gut hurts like hell after every session. I reckon that's what you're looking for, right? bleh
I bought a bread machine a couple months ago, haven't bought a loaf of bread since.
I had a mouse problem, and my cats weren't doing their jorbs. I was looking for mouse traps one day, looked in a cupboard in the laundry room and discovered my father's liqour stash. He quit drinking in the 70s, but he saved back a few things, which he probably forgot about. Nothing of great quality, not much collectible even, but old bourbon is old bourbon. I've been sipping at it now and again, it tastes like you'd imagine it would.
On the motorcycle front, I got the left side of Ponch put together... front sprocket cover with integral clutch release mechanism, new stator and starter wiring, heel-toe shifter mechanism, footboards, all that stuff. I have to make myself dive back into the wiring harness, for I must have spark!! As I said to piccini earlier,The motorcycle really runs on electricity, gasoline is merely the fuel that it burns. The continuing function as you go down the road, that's a combination of simple electrical phenomena in a complex pattern. Just as our bodies are carriers for our complex nervous systems, so is a motorcycle to its electrical system.

Re: whatcha doing?
they're the fenders - that's the pic from the auction, which isn't the actual ones i have (mine are marked fidelitron, which the pic isn't). 5.5k, 4.4k. looks like a cts pot.
i got the body all together and wired last night. i have to drill the neck and that makes me nervous. i'm certain i can get the neck pocket mounting holes right (i have xfer punches and a drill press if i need it) but the tuner locating pegs make me nervous. they're numerous and fiddly.

Measure as many times and in as many ways as you can, mark your positions, then walk away from it for a while.
Come back to it, look at the marks, and if they look like they're in the right place, then you make the changes.

Re: whatcha doing?
Put brakes on the stupid van. Finally realized the reason i don't like wrenching on stuff is because I used to BS with my dad while doing it and he would point out easier ways to do seemingly mundane stuff. So it's a moderately "heavy" realization.
The brakes are now good, and my buddy Jim (Beam) and I are discussing it at length. Not sure if it's working, but giving it the college try.

Re: whatcha doing?
Enjoying a Chimay Red for the first time in my existence. The beer snob that said I had to try it was correct. It's fantastic.
Just finished leaky valve cover removal, cleaning, and all prep for reassembly on a BMW 525iT. By far the easiest to work on cars I've ever touched. Not going back together tonight, it'll happen tomorrow. If this stupid car is solid once all the "wear items" (anything not metal an some things that are) get replace I may just have it forever. So far it's been CCV, many vacuum lines, all intake plumbing, cleaned the TB, DISA, ICV.. After the valve cover gaskets is the water pump, thermostat and most all hoses. If it aint solid after all this, I'll be taking a huge hit when I sell it.
I need to work on more bikes.
Damn, that's a good beer...

Re: whatcha doing?
A little over a year ago, I replaced the radiator on my truck. While it was out I figured it was a good time as any to replace the hoses n'such for good measure.
Fast forward to now, lower rad hose is leaking.
I don't if this is common, so let me describe. The hose goes from bottom of radiator and connects in on the side of engine, in the middle of said hose is a T-connection where a smaller hose splits off up to the water pump. The leak is right there. I figure a hose clamp is loose so I tightened down all the clamps at that T.
Now it's wait and see if that did the trick.
In other news, my ankle is doing much better. I can now walk on it without cursing my ancestors, it's less swollen and the bruise is subsiding.

I don't know where I stole this but I used to say that that son of sam berkowitz (sp?) charactr could have gotten along just fine if he didn't DO WHAT THE DOG TOLD HIM TO. Look at him in the court photos and whatnot - he's happy as a clam. just cause you got voices dosn't mean you gotta do what thy tell you
also need to also start using the damn preview button so i can also stop editing posts 6 times for stupid shit like repeating words also.

wish I heard about this earlier - I've had double vision fun times on & off throughout my life & 3 surgeries so far. is there a thread w/ more details of what's going on with you? I never found prism or other glasses I could live with but the last time I tried any was the early 90's, I hope tech has improved. I have more questions but if there's a thread or something I'll head over there.DerGolgo wrote:I went to the eye doctor...

Re: whatcha doing?
Oh yeah, I'm nursing the cutest black eye you've ever seen. It looks like I picked a fight with a 12 year old and lost. I got it from my dog. We were doing our typical after work roughhousing & he got me with his skull at full gallop. I think norvin was always his name & I just happened to guess right. He is fast but not like a modern lightweight - On the heavier side, torque similar to a twin and it's best to just not talk about the handling too much. STRAIGHT fucking into me, full speed.
point me to a decent pic hosting site for mobiles and you got your pics. photobucket is like the new waterboarding or something. What's wrong with the internet? It was fine when I left it back in "Oh Ten"...
