Paula Abdul and Corey Clark - who believes or who cares?

by TresHappy in

i prefer the latter!

doogie

It looks to me like it's true, but also think Corey Clark is a creep for revealing this. What is his motive other than "15 minutes of fame"? I wish Randy Jackson and Simon would comment on this.

even if he just revelaed it for the publicity, she should still start working on her resume. can you imagine the lawsuits that the rejected contestants will level at the show's producers? in turn, the show will have no choice but to fire paula and maybe sue for damages. her career is over. (at least on american idol)

c'mon, if you're a judge you can't be boppin the contestants. she had to have known that. there is obviously something wrong with the woman. (for the record i only watch that show because my girlfriend won't let me change the channel...one day, i will rise up against her tyranny...)

Those position sensors are really just "Big Brother" trying to control every aspect of your engine's life. Let those crankshafts and camshafts just "be" where ever they find themselves. There is no need to know the exact position of a camshaft, and really, is that even possible given what we know about physics? If your engine runs well, enjoy. If it runs poorly or not at all, silently watch your emotions, and it's thoughts, and do not judge your engine.... for it is you! And you are it, and we are all part of a giant machine of life.

lol. i'm gonna print this and just hand it to the officer when he stops me for my expired inspection sticker.

Why not try for a bigger jump, like 2000?

whoa, whoa, whoa...slow down. let's not get crazy...

hey, maybe i'll get one of those new aveo's. nothings cooler than an aveo.

I bought a set of books from helm for my beast. They cost a few hundred, but they seem to have everything

i'd probably do that too if i cared one bit about my hunk of crap. i keep it running but that's about it. i actually can't wait until it completely dies and i can get something else. perhaps a 98 cavalier.

that's perfect! thanks again dave! if i can't find them now...well, i probably shouldn't even be driving a car, much less working on it.

as far as your baby problem goes...my mom used to give us brandy. (maybe that's why i can't find the sensors...)

"UNDER HOOD, CENTER, FRONT ENGINE AREA, BASE OF INTAKE
MANIFOLD, MOUNTED IN FRONT SIDE OF ENGINE BLOCK"

i didn't see that though. who knows, that might be the ticket. i know that's where my oxygen sensor is. it's worth a shot. thanks!

yeah, see that's what i mean. i saw that too and i thought, "well, duh. how could i have missed that?" but unfortunately, the engine is completely different for my little 2.2.

thanks for the help though dave. i'm ready to just start combing every inch of my engine with a fine toothed comb, but with my luck, i'll end up replacing something else that only looks like the sensors. grrrrr...

yeah, i thought a firewall was something completely different. unfortunately, they changed everything up in 95.

oh, and this is a 2.2L. which stinks too, because on the 2.4 the sensors i'm looking for are just sitting there (mocking me) right on top of the engine.

i've searched high and low on google and believe it or not, apparently no one knows where these stinkin things are. if anyone can give me ANY advice (i'm not picky) i'd REALLY appreciate it. thanks

What were your reasons for not liking the ministry school?

by LongHairGal in

i dropped out years ago because i couldn't stand getting together with sisters i didn't like to do a talk.

i hated it with a passion!!

i do realize that you did learn but what i resented was that the sisters were inflicted on each other in a way that i don't think the brothers were.

i remember times when i'd be preparing a part and using something as an example/illustration of whatever inane point i was trying to make, but the object of my illustration didn't quite fit, so i'd just make up stuff until it did.

i can't remember what my theme was but one time, i used the statue of liberty as an illustration. i said that it was a gift from france but they were sort of mocking the new country of america and the statue was supposed to be kind of a billboard for how good things were back in the old country. as far as i know, that's complete crap, but i said it anyway. as i was giving the part i looked around at individual faces to see if anyone caught it. they were all just smiling and nodding. they didn't have a clue that i was just pulling stuff out of my butt. i realized how easy it is to manipulate the truth to fit your own aims. kind of got me thinking...

so anyway, i wasn't a huge fan of the school, but i did think it was kind of funny that no one really pays any attention to what you say up there. after that, i took a little more liberty with my parts. everyone said i was really turning into a fine teacher.
