Khoi, I need some baseline dyno runs with the new 5.0

When would be a good weekend to drop by for some dyno pulls?

Weekend will probably not be so good, are there any weekdays that would work for you?

Snowden is a giant sack of douche with a value less than that of a bag of smashed a$$holes, and he deserves to hang. That's all I've got to say about that.

The media isn't really siding with him.

The MSM works for the state.

I haven't been following the media too much either. Regardless, the media is still going to report what they think they know and the blitherings he spouts out (true, or false), with no vetting done at all (because they can't, of course). That is modern media: report first, vet later.

So my point remains the same.

He fact-checks out pretty well so far IMO. To be honest he's been pulling his punches.

It's not like he's sharing anything we didn't already know. This stuff has been going on since at least '95

So what are the facts, then? Understand, if you truly knew the facts, you wouldn't be allowed to post them here anyway...right?

dmhenderson · 07-03-2013, 09:04 AM

And yeah, this is Fri for me.

My new hobby is posting strings of NSA "watch" words onto random forums.

Hmmmm might have to wait until August then. July is FY end for my company so things are a bit crazy now

You haven't been paying attention, then. I don't mean to be blunt, but the "$200k a year job" (LAUGHABLY high for a BAH contractor that is only a network admin, btw - he really only made about $120K which is shit-money for a BAH contractor in Hawaii. Here, that'd be something like 80-90K in this area...which is beans for them) has been disproven already.

Not even going to touch the beautiful girlfriend part lol.

Again, you are assuming everything he says is even true. How do you know? Maybe I'll go to the media tomorrow and say I'm truly a robot made by the government powered by a cold-fusion heart. You should see my robot grip! You'll believe me too, right? :-/

I don't have to post anything, but if you look at the list of places I've lived in the last 2 years, it's pretty evident it's not being done to keep me in the dark.

You saw what he leaked, right?
