I Had A Dream!

I was part of an audience where an award was being given. The award was for the first person to calculate the cost in dollars to restore all the FSJ's in the world. The sum was a stagering amount, several hundred digits in length. The winner of the award mentioned that enough money doesn't exist in the world to cover this cost. The fellow who won the award went by the name of Ristow.

You forgot the part where we made you write 100 times, "headers kill low end power, removing your egr will cause your engine to run hot, and carbed engines don't like to start when it's cold out"

I'm just curious what you all are on having dreams like this. Gave me a good laugh though. Especially Ristow's. Thank you for that

Wow, and I have dreams about better was to hook up my stereo system to maximuze fidelity and flexibility in the number of inputs I have. Making two recievers work in a master-slave arrangement in conjunction with a reverb unit on the slave, along with 10 speakers in 6 different enclosures in 2 seperate rooms and having enough inputs left to run a turntable, tape deck, Sirius XM reciever, Satalite TV reciever, Auxillary MP3 input jack, and CD player so that the recievers can work in tandem or individually is a chalange and a mess of RCA cables.

Plus, most of the equipment is 1970's or older and the 50 pound master reciever is vacuum tube.

Needless to say, the revelation in my dream did not come true and i ended up with the exact same configuration I have now.

I started reading this thread and realized it is just like my day has gone...

Both my day and this thread prove there is something to the full moon.
