My son is going to be looking to replace his DD soon hopefully for under 10k and I've seen some pretty nice Explorers that fall within that range, so my question for those who know them is are these good reliable SUV's and what are the most common issues, and are there certain years to stay away...
Playoff time and looking forward to some good competitive series. A lot of really good teams but I don't think there's a team that really stands out as the favorite. The east will probably have one of the Panthers, Canes or Rangers emerge and the west any one of the Oilers, Avs, Stars or Jets...
Unfortunately I found out I have diabetes today. I pretty much knew this diagnosis was coming because I've had some of the tell tale symptoms the past couple of months. Excessive thirst and numbness. I'm not overweight so its probably more from diet.
I've been given a strict diet and a...
Hasn't been an NHL thread in a long while but its playoff time so lets give it a try.
So the Bruins are coming off an historic regular season but that's all meaningless now. Time and time again the best team in the regular season has gotten bounced sometimes pretty quickly in the playoffs and I...
19 years ago, (September 10th, 2001) ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation...
Somebody had to do it.
I don't see why the Red Sox can't have another great season. I like the starting rotation as long as they can stay healthy which is a big question mark. Bullpen is suspect and I would have like to have seen them add another big bat to the middle of the lineup but this...
So I'm looking for a gas grill that doesn't start rusting the moment you take it out of the box. Does such a thing exist without breaking the bank?
What do you have?
How long have you had it?
How has it held up?
Pros, cons
I don't expect much action in this thread but here goes anyway.
I also don't expect anything from the Bruins this year either as they're still soft, boring and as usual won't score many goals.
If their progression from last year continues I think there is no reason Toronto and Edmonton can't...
Are you kidding me? :poke:

I just love picking on Democrats. ;-)
A Republican, in a wheelchair, entered a restaurant one afternoon and
asked the waitress for a cup of coffee. The Republican looked across the
restaurant and asked, "Is that Jesus sitting over there?"
The waitress nodded "yes," so the Republican...
Sad news. This guy was probably the most feared enforcer in his years in the NHL. One of the toughest mofo's in NHL history in my opinion.

So NESN in Boston did a bracket style poll on who is Boston's biggest sports legend and fittingly, Bobby Orr was the winner. (No brainer really) A lot of great athletes have played in Boston but the only real competition I saw was from Ted Williams but Orr is just on his own level.
Heres what...
Ford is still on a nice roll, too bad the economy and the auto industry will never recover with the consumer constantly being bent over from the government and the price of oil poised to go through the roof again.

So my oil fired steam boiler crapped out and I need something new whether it be a replacement oil boiler, convert to natural gas or what I have seriously been considering, electric baseboard. Now I know electric is the most epensive monthly cost but is the cheapest initial cost for installation...
Anyone know what this montrosity is? Kinda looks like a giant horsefly. I didn't think he could fly anymore but he just eventually took off, I figure he had about enough of me.
