      What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

      Yesterday I watched "A Sweet Sickness: The Flathead Movie" on Prime. I think it was from 2011, and it's a bit dry, but as the title states, it's a sickness. There's just nothing like the sound of a Flathead Ford!

      What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

      I'm looking forward to Season 5 of 'Peaky Blinders'. It should be released this fall on Netflix.

      The Official Hot Rod Thread - Part 2: No Replacement For Displacement

      @IndyBrownsFan Thanks, I greatly appreciate the info. I was looking at Reggie's since it's the closest for me driving down from the northern part of the state. @Hop, I'm not sure how susceptible the entire E46 lineup is to rear subframe stress fractures, but the M3 most certainly is due to...

      NFL refuses AMVETS ad for #PleaseStand

      I heard on the radio this morning that Roger Goodell claims the reason for lower ratings & reduced viewers this year is because the younger generation just doesn't watch tv. Seriously. And yet they just gave this genius an extended contract & a personal jet. Bravo!

      The Official Hot Rod Thread - Part 2: No Replacement For Displacement

      Slightly off topic, but certainly related... I'm new to the world of BMW, but reading thru a lot of these pages, it appears there are a few well versed in that arena. My specific question is regards to a private shop in Noblesville. Does anyone have a good reason as to why I should avoid...

      Indianapolis Among Amazon 'HQ2' Finalists

      Last night Fort Wayne news was reporting that it was down to three cities; Chicago, Indy, & Columbus, OH. Personally, I think Chicago is out. Tons of businesses are fleeing Chicago due to taxes & high operating costs. Likewise, they even tax the airspace over O'Hare airport now. That tells...

      I need a new grill/smoker

      After 22 years of grilling on the same Charbroil Meijer special & smoking with a heavily modified El Cheapo Brinkman, I too splurged this year to upgrade to one single outdoor kitchen appliance. I opted for the Traeger Pro22. Thus far, I have never found myself in a situation where I needed...

      I want a truck

      Understood. I'm originally from Kokomo, so I've seen first-hand the undying love of UAW products from many Hoosiers. The previous fourteen pages explicitly show support for the big three. I'm just surprised at the lack of support displayed for the "other" product built in Indiana is all.

      I want a truck

      I'm surprised there's no more love for Toyota on here than just a couple of people. After all, they are built here in Indiana, or at least they used to be. Mine is an '01 daily driver w/276+k and minimal maintenance issues. I've gone about 130k per timing belt, which is a necessary repair to...

      What are you listening to right now?

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbW08aKDoQ4 The Avett Brothers. There's just something about their simplistic style that appeals to me. These guys are actually cousins with a girl I graduated high school with many moons ago and she turned me on to them, knowing that I like a bluegrass/folk...

      Blizzard Warning

      Sitting here in Warsaw, US 30 was an absolute mess this morning. We pulled all of our trucks off the road that were scheduled to head north or west. Seems like east of Columbia City was just wet, but I heard the Angola area had multiple cars overturned in the median around 9am. I'm headed to...

      Help me pick my new car!

      Buy a Gen 1 Tundra Crew Cab, end of build is 2006. That should run you about $10-15k & last a lifetime w/basic maintenance. That leaves you w/ $25-30k to accessorize, presuming you're doing the Dave Ramsey thing & paying w/cash.

      Militia Takes Over Wildlife Refuge In Oregon

      Getting back on topic, I don't believe there is an easy or clear cut answer. I don't recall any arrests or prosecutions for those that trashed public property during the 'Occupy' encampments. Furthermore, Eric Holder participated in an armed take over of an ROTC building (I believe at...

      Militia Takes Over Wildlife Refuge In Oregon

      Yes, I'm well aware. Currently it's King Abdullah, but his father, King Hussein died in '99 after receiving a lot of medical attention here in the States, if memory serves. Ironically, the real King is willing to call radical Islam for what it is, but I digress. That's for a different thread.

      Militia Takes Over Wildlife Refuge In Oregon

      Slip away? Breaking the law? ISIS? Yeah, I wholeheartedly disagree with your entire sentiment. As for the Kenyan reference, I'll agree with you there. I much prefer the term 'King Hussein'. It more accurately represents the level of respect that he demands, wouldn't you agree?

      My world has been rocked today.

      I have astigmatism in my right eye only, so I know exactly what you're going through. As for shooting, I'm sure it improved, it's just been so many years since I first started wearing glasses that I don't remember too many specifics. The one specific thing that jumps out though, was upon...

      Colts game tips

      Typically one block or so west of the Oil Can. Granted, one of those games was the Notre Dame vs Purdue 'Shamrock Series' game last year. I think $35 was the most I've paid, but $40 parking is not out of the norm for the closest spots.

      Colts game tips

      From my experiences, set aside $40 just for parking. If you find cheaper, fantastic.

      H.R.4269 — 114th Congress (2015-2016) Assault Weapons Ban of 2015

      Plain & simple, I will not comply. For all intents & purposes, I no longer recognize Fedzilla anyway. The IRS will surely attest to my position as well, as they've been hounding me for the better part of a year now, going back on some 2013 tax issues. Likewise, it'll be fun to see how...
