  1. They should bring back the Picador. I can't think of anything more fitting to speed through some of the drier, more redneck parts of the map. Oh yeah, and I happen to love El Caminos--- they're a car and a truck, but not real great at being either.
  2. I'm not sure Iowa could beat Nebraska even if Nebraska was trying to lose.
  3. Crazy, but now means an SEC team will be part of yet another Nat'l Championship game, pretty much regardless of how the next couple weeks play out. Oh yeah, and the Huskers have essentially locked themselves into the Big 10 championship game, and have effectively solidified their position in the Rose Bowl.
  4. Well, I'm not 100% on the ownership of US power grids, but I do know this much: the US is broken up into 3 massive grids, each completely independent of each other. One for the Eastern half of the United States, one for the Western half, and one for, you guessed it, Texas. So Texas would be set electrically, especially with all the oil refineries in the Houston/Galveston area, as well as the Port of Houston, which is already taking in massive amounts of oil. I haven't even covered Texas' large natural gas and oil reserves. In no way do I support the secession of Texas, but, at least from an energy standpoint, we'd be pretty well off.
  5. C'mon, I need a chance to use all these guns for something other than target practice.
  6. I honestly believe Jesse Ventura should run for Prez in 2016 for the Libertarians. Did some good things in Minnesota as governor, and he's already popular for other things, and what America needs is for a third party to gain a little power and recognition. Jesse is a guest fairly often on a radio show I listen to often ( Todd & Tyler out of Omaha, fucking hilarious) and he has a lot of good ideas.
  7. Well, Nebraska beat Michigan State today. At least the third 4th quarter comeback this season. I still fail to see how our newest all-time yardage leader (Martinez beat Eric Crouch's record) can rush for over 100 yards, then throw 3 interceptions, yet somehow overcome a 10 point deficit in the last 7 minutes of the game by throwing for close to 100 yards in said 7 minutes. Baffling. Fucking Baffling. I'm glad they won and all, but Martinez's bipolar play is beginning to piss me off. At least now we have a pretty clear path to the B1G championship game.
  8. I had one, but it broke halfway through the season... Assholes throwing their elbows at my face and taking a lot of shots to the head must have done it. I guess that's just how being on defense goes.
  9. We actually just lost our rivalry game, 42-33. Stupid fucks broke my nose on a late hit and all of our starting d line were out at one point or another because they got their eyes gouged.
  10. Nebraska kicked some ass. Beat those Michigan bitches down into the ground
  11. Nebraska vs. Michigan today BRING IT ON BITCHES!!!!!!!

  13. YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! MURICAAAAAAAA. But really, I deal with enough rednecks here in Texas, many of whom actually want to secede from the rest of the US. I'm moving back to Nebraska if that ever happens. I ain't got time to deal with that shit.
  14. Vote Libertarian!-----We have Jesse Ventura
  15. We still play 3 more games here in Texas, before playoffs. Oh yeah----- The Huskers edged past Northwestern, 29-28
  16. Never understood the Avalanche. I would much rather have a double-cab Silverado.
  17. Been getting into a lot of Stephen King lately, just finished Christine, Misery, and The Dark Half.
  18. Mmmmm... Sounds like pure sex to me. I love old school glass packs. I personally have a custom set of Hearthrob glass packs, and a similar set of headers, except mine are legit 60s models, got them from a swap meet. Actually, most of my El Camino came from a swap meet.
  19. Who cares about the jerseys anymore, how about the fact that the Huskers overcame a 17 point deficit and scored 20 unanswered points in the 2nd half to rally for the win!
  20. Woah woah woah, lets slow Down here. Ford and Chrysler have recently revamped their entire lines, putting them leaps and bounds ahead of the shit gm is still pumping out. Ford Yes. They've improved massively and I give them cudos for it. But they still have a ways to go before they catch up with the euros/japs. But of all the American companies they're by far the best. Chysler however, no. They may look nice and powerful, but underneath they're the same old unreliable shitbox. Maybe now that Fiat owns them they'll improve but I have yet to be convinced Dodge or Chysler is worth owning. GM. Garbage, pure Garbage. But then again, all the parts for GM are made by the crackheads in my town. So i'm not surprised. As for Chrysler, their new Dodge line has greatly impressed me, mostly because of the new Durango, lightly revamped Challenger, and Fiat-engineered Dart
  21. Nebraska's taking on Wisconsin tonight in what will hopefully give Nebraska the chance to make up for their terrible game against Wisconsin last year. Also, both teams are unveiling their god-awful new alternate uniforms.
  22. And you'd have to be at as low as 1500-2000 rpm, correct?
