That depends on your setting for posts/page. The default is 25, I believe, but I'm set at 40.

So, we want to upgrade our Clubbie with white wheels, and wanted to know if there is a good place in Fresno/Clovis to check out wheels. We've been looking online, but would actually like to see some in person. We are interested in a 5 spoke, clean design. We also know that we will probably have to find a wheel we like and have it powder coated white, so if anyone can recommend a powder coating shop, that would be great. Thanksl

So I drive up to CMS this afternoon and see a newer R56 pulling out, I look and see on the guys shirt, he works for Sebring West . I ask Steve, "whats up with that?", he had to help them reset some codes, they cant do it, . I told Steve he should have put one of his card's in the glove box

Sounds like my girls fell in love with a puppy when they went to the meeting, I had told them no more cats when I left I should not have been so specific Almost to the final stage over here just working logistics with the Marines who arrange for the Air Force to move us from here to there. For those that have been in, or have worked with different services we don't all have the same language and as such this task of moving all of our personnel and support equipment by air is a task all by it's self then when you add the different services it really gets interesting. I'm looking forward to days at the CMS having fun turning wrenches and watching the Dr work his magic.

WD-40, Duct Tape and Sawzall. If it sticks and it's not suppose to, WD-40. If it does not stick and is suppose to, Duct Tape. If it needs to move use the Sawzall.
