Q: on wed 17 nov 2004 174418 gmt budd cochran mr-d150@citlinkspam.net wrote tbone wrote what makes you greedy are your ideas and beliefs. it just keeps getting funnier every day! so a poor person can be greedy so its not how much i make nor how much i have that makes me greedy but im greedy none the less. priceless! its also in direct opposition to his comment that all persons making too much money were greedy. there should never be a limit to what someone can earn. that is true. no that is greed. no its not. greed is someone who wishes to set limits on what others can do in their lives. hmm sounds like tom and his wage limits idea. or its called jeolousy. which is a real reason for greed. what i or anyone else makes is not up to you to decide and set limits on. didnt we beat this dead horse with him before yep as well as pretty much all the other topics too. i just done respond to him anymore. as has been said many times before he enjoys this going back and forth and will keep you going as long as he can. apparently he has no friends. thats what communism tries to do. they do not want wealthy people among their society well except for politicians. ah . . .its animal farm all over again . . .to paraphrase yogi berra. what a weak argument. what makes it greed is when you take all that you can knowing that it comes at the expence of others. its always at the expense of others. every dime you have came from someone else. have you ever once told an employer that you are making too much and are greedy and request a pay cut heck no employees are always underpaid and everyone above them is greedy and overpaid right how does this make me wrong. all that says is that they are either more greedy than you or are simply ahead of you. ok so now there are degrees of being greedy. first you used the figure of $200000 but when i told you thats more than i make you changed to say its just views that make me greedy. so now it makes no difference if i am wealthy or poor im still greedy. priceless! not priceless just a t-bone-ism. now if you mean worthless id have to agree. lol when did i say that. you did state that many corporate owners have already made back their investment. so if they still earn some arbitary salary in excess of tbones greedy-o-meter then they are greedy and do not deserve what they make. lol that is the point miles they put money away and invest during their years of hard work and retire and live off of that. you want to continue to take your full salary for no contribution which raises the cost of doing business for your company for no valid reason. bullcrap. to retire you must invest in something other than your own company to not be greedy their company is their investment. thats a concept you just cant realize. there are a lot of concepts he cant or wont realize. this is greed miles pure and simple but tell me are you going to offer this deal to all of your employees who i am sure work as hard as you do did they invest and risk large sums of money on the company if the company folds do the employees loose anywheres near what the owners and investors loose you seem to miss the concept that there are differences in whats been invested and whom takes on the most risks. in a communistic mindset there can be no levels . . .except for those that are more level than the rest that is. however those more level castes can only be recognized by those more worthy of being more level. and thats the level on that. btw going down to phoenix again this weekend. my son is quitting the school because hes not gaining ny knowledge and getting in trouble yep theyre actually lowering his grades because hes ahead of the class. leaving fri a.m. about 600. hows the weather been down there well be towing a small utility trailer behind the lebaron and im not sure about front wheel drive and trailers on snow. .

finaly stopped raining... it is not the rain or the bed light. has to be from running the air conditioner. any help would be appreciated on how to blow out the drain pipe. i know the end of the pipe is just right behind the passenger fender on the firewall. where it starts and how to blow it out from the other end i dont know and was wondering if anyone out there knew how. thanks its not coolant... it is most definetly water. as soon as it stops raining i can get out there and do more research for the source. is the heater core not under the dash somewhere could that be leaking out coolant. will check that out and let you know. it has been raining alot lately so will see if that is it. otherwise i will narrow it down to the air conditioner as i believe since it only happens when it is running. tom been there done that. you have a cracked bed light lens and when it leaks it leaks between the double wall cab back panel around the rear window. it then runs forward under the carpet and soaks the rug and insulator in the front. by the time i finally figured out where the water was coming from i had to change out the entire carpet. steve i believe the drain pipe is plugged due to leaves etc. what i would like to know if there is a way to clear it out without having to take it to a dealer and pay them way too much for what i can do myself. does anyone know how to blow out the drain hose some water does drain but there is water still collecting under the carpet. any help is appreciated. i have a 96 dodge club cab 1500 model. please email at trkelleseven seven at verizon.net change the seven to a number! .

also check the belts to the power steering pump. even serpentine belts wear and develop a glaze. budd budd cochran wrote do you have power steering bet youre hearing the noise of the fluid flowing thru the hoses. actually whooshing was the wrong word to describe it. its more of a whiffing sound. it doesnt sound to me like fluid in the hoses although i wont rule out that is what it is. it really sounds like when you wash a window with windex and at the very end of cleaning the window it makes that funny skrinch skrinch sound. only it makes that sound whenever i turn the steering wheel. maybe i need to top off the power steering fluid .

on wed 17 nov 2004 210851 -0700 bob bobcowan@access4less.net wrote well it finally happened. ive been hearing a lot of talk about expensive repair bills on these trucks. but so far mine has run really well. for 60k miles routine maint only. never had to actually fix anything. ive kept a close watch on all those things that seem to go bad early - brakes balls joints transmissions. but they are still in top shape. so whats the other thing that all light duty dodge trucks are famouse for you guessed it the diff. its the coprorate 9.25 rear with 3.92 gears and ls. and yes it got regular service. i recently noted a feint noise that seemed to be coming from the rear. i was pretty sure it was the diff but not positive. so i took it to a local shop today and we popped the cover off. the oil looked kind of ugly but not terrible. lying in the bottom of the case was a shard of metal that looked to me like a bearing shell. the shop owner reached in and pulled out some small part with his fingers. he said it was a reatiner for the clutch pack. the outside edges of the ring gear teeth were a little burnt. before this i drove a 95 ram with the same kind of rear. bearings went out in that one at 60k miles too. oh well. it is getting a complete overhaul with aftermarket parts it will cost about $800. should last forever now. i was kind of expecting it so i was very alert to that noise. interesting... we had to have new seals and just about everything but the actual gears changed in our rear end at about 64000 miles.. 99 ram qq 2wd 360/auto/355 yep mine started whining at about 62000. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
