Help With A Slow Starter Thread

« on: October 11, 2011, 10:45:15 PM »
I was looking for something else in the air cooled tech forum and ran across the infamous "Help With A Slow Starter" thread on page 5.  I ALMOST revived it, but thought I'd better ask first!  ;)   Dang, I'm bored.   ;D

I'm bored also Zen but it would hard to get going again due to so many "Newbies" or "Possom's" with no sense of humor or could care less. If you try to poke a little fun at someone you get back Zero or they get pissed off. I won't mention any names. This is one reason I have backed off even talking about Tech things anymore.

We give you flak right back; you just need to check the batteries in your hearing aids...

How are they going to learn anything (including how to have a sense of humor or how to care) if we don't teach 'em?   ???   I say let's liven this place up a little!   ;D ;) 8)

As far as you go, I don't need batteries. Its call selective hearing.

This should be interesting if we don't scare all our new Master Tech's  away. I still have some old Dasher parts to launch if someone want to get froggy.

Go ahead and launch 'em my way . . . my Dasher needs all the parts it can get.   ;D  No, wait.  I've got a bunch of Dasher parts . . . what I need is someone to install them for me.   8)

Help With Slow Starter needs to be published in book form. How could you not love quotes like this.

Actually, I can't really say anything bad about the Godfather. In fact, I'll go ahead and blow his cover and say he's a really nice guy if you chat with him on the phone or come visit. He even doesn't mind if you park a big green Westy in his driveway and leak oil everywhere ;D

But be warned . . . DO NOT pull in his driveway in a Dasher unless you have a deathwish!   ;D
