CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

DREAMS CAN COME TRUE! SEND THIS TO NO LESS THAN 10 PEOPLE WITHIN 20 MINS AND YOUR TRUE LOVE WILL ... FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU.
If you don't send this link to 10 of your friends and enemies you will have 5 years bad luck, your true love will never find you, you won't receive the 10million gold billion from the prince of Nigerias secretary, Walt Disney wont give us all a free holiday to Disley land, you wont win the internet lottery that you never entered, you wont be able to pickup the ipod nano or ps3 you've won for the 4th time this week, you wont get to spank the monkey, you wont have a chance to invest in the nigerian charity fund, your tsunami donations will go missing and you'll probably not be the 1millionth visitor to that website that's probably only had 5000 hits since the birth of the internet...
The sky however will not fall down and I wont scream at you to stop forwarding every god damned email my way like some dim witted fool. ITS ON THE INTERNETS. IT MUST BE REAL.
Last day at work... so I'm bore,d.
New job next week RAH!
Edit: LOL f@!#ing Bens big penis, it gets me every time.

yeah a 'boycott' was tried by email in NZ, failed miserablly as soon as everyone ran out of gas... its like a drug addiction, you pay because you have to feed itI8AFRE wrote:dude i couldnt agree more this plan and have discussed it with family many times. This could not only work with fuel but also anything else...... Like BEER has anyone else noticed the price of alcohol going up and up, its like the sh*t is made out of petrol or something haha......
There's only one problem with this idea, reaching as many ppl as possible, it needs to be organised, a website to communicate who will be black listed and when.
Consumers need to take back the power, but unfortunatley most will sit there and bitch about it but do nothing to fix it
WE GOTTA TAKE THE POWER BACK (rage against the machine)

Ok. I’ve been doing some research and found out that converting a conventional petrol engine to electric/petrol hi bred or even completely electric is more common place in Australia then I thought. There are many companies specializing in these conversions for both private and fleet vehicles and provisions under RTA modification guidelines that allow for cars and motorbikes to be 100% street legal and insurable now the big question.... how much? That depends on what you want. Lets say you want the same performance as an fto you will pay 15 to 25 grand with a range of 100km per charge that’s 0 to 100 in 8 seconds. The electric motors are 144 volts 100hp 14000rpm with boocoo torque delivered through out the rev range and the beauty of this system is that it’s expandable if you want another 100 ponies add another motor for $2900auboarsai wrote:Hot, now if only I could pickup the parts for that (for conversion?) at my local mitsi dealer.alekazam wrote:

if you wont more range add more batteries but my favorite idea and also the cheapest could be a viable option for those of us thinking of turbo charging and that is the
hi bred… keep your existing engine and bolt up a 100hp electric engine to the back wheels via some kind of diff and then wired to a go fast button fastened on or near the steering wheel like a nitrous setup or maybe you could use the w.o.t switch (wide open throttle switch hmmmm and lets say you put 2 motors on the back combined with the 190hp or so on the front that’s a 390hp awd hibred fto for 15 or so grand. Just a thought… Any way here’s some links…
