OLD F*RT PRIDE I'm passing this on as I did not want to be the only old f*rt receiving it. Actually, it's not a bad thing to be called, as you will see. # Old F*rts are easy to spot at sporting events; during the playing of the National Anthem. Old F*rts remove their caps and stand at attention and sing withou...

There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations. Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness, when shared, is doubled. If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy. 'Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present .'

New Member, new van, bought it yesterday. Van weighs 1500ks, tows well, pulls well but noticed the suspension on the Kia Sorento is slightly spongy. Should I replace strutts with heavier gas shocks, will that lift the car up and make a rougher ride empty ?

Whilst I couldn't be without my puter, it sure can be a pain! I recently got an email from a friend with bunch of travel photos as attachments. What a nuisance it was to open them individually. I thought that I would educate us both in the art of embedding them in the email. And that was where the problem...
