    No problem I need to put a floor in the bathroom so we could have a work party. :)

    Don't know if you would like it HRK it's windy and rainy right now, but then that's the best time for storm watching along the coast. But if you like seafood man there is some great places in Newport.

    I checked out their site once, no thanks. There are ways to get back on without them knowing who you are but do you really want to.
    I banned a thing here last night. Some foreign country spammer trying to Create mayhem here. You do need to be careful when on a site not to upset the administrator or mods.
    There is a moderator on a gun forum that I go on that thinks he is God and has kicked several off for what I think is trivial stuff. Guys just a little dictator.
    To me when a thread goes on forever and ever it then will gravitate to other interest and should be closed as its lost its purpose. We moderators here have discussed that and hope we can control it better.
    Voicing ones opinion even a strong opinion can be good to a point but once it goes astray it's done. I just closed a tread I started recently as I saw it going in the wrong direction and was not serving the purpose that it was started for and even saw myself getting sucked into it so I closed it.
    This is even going astray of this thread as to why it was started. But let me add here that I think many of us came here for the many of the same reasons.

    Same as JB, was looking for info on CV carbs and found CV Performance and ended up here. Somehow this forum seems more personal, others not as much...not sure that makes sense or not. Makes me want to be able to meet the regulars on here...
