SO this is the ask Birdman thread. Ask any question on any topic. About me, politics, shag, life, cars, the economy, health, religion....anything you want. Got questions? Oh yes you do.
How much longer is it going to take to finish my car?
A hour and a half after you think you are done, when you realize that you left the coil wire off of the distibutor.
I think you're an optimist.
M-14 or FAL?
Oh Birdman, why do people buy Chevies??
HAving fired both in a stock and modified form, I would say the M-14. pricewise, its cheaper to build an M-14 into an effective sniper weapon. Plus, the FALs ive fired seem to be a bit more unwieldy to operate.
The quick answer? They hate Fords.
The probably correct answer?
They like V-6s that rattle and spit intake gaskets, they love replacing balljoints, and they love searching through 5000 options before slelecting the wrong fuel pump for their truck.....repeat 3 times before selecting the correct one.
Why is the middle finger on my left hand, shorter than my right hand?
You are right handed.
OR
you slipped during the reconstruction of your Cougar.
Owning both, I prefer the ergonomics of the FAL platform, but I appreciate the "traditional" ergos of the Garand/M-14 platform.
AK or AR?
Birdman, if you don't mind, I'll take this one. AK because Palin is way prettier than Beebe! :D
Ok, I'll give you that one, as I like Saracuda myself. I am planning on seeing her again in 4 years....
Try again, AK47 or AR-15?
thats why I like the M-14. Im more traditional.
AR, hands down. I carried an M-4 in iraq, modified of course. I ony tore down the weapon completely 3 times in country. the rest were simple wipedowns. And i fired A LOT of rounds through it. not one misfire. Freefloating rail, custom grip, a red dor cco with removable iron sights, no carry handle and a tennifer bolt. Absolute nail driver. I wish i could have brought it when i got out....It was very wierd for a long time not having it with me.
I am a fan of both. For different reasons. Most of my ARs are "retro", but I do have an M-4-copy as well. I also appreciate the ruggedness and simplicity of the AK platform.
I may revisit this subject later, given your experience...
OK, Turbo-4 or V-8?
Turbo4. Im biased, and ill tell you why. Given the same ammount of money thrown at both (lets say in a t-bird for example) they will make similar power. I like telling people after a race that its just a 4. the look on their faces is worth the extra aggravation. plus, i like making more than a 100 ftlbs of torque more than a similar horsepower v8
What's a good home welder? I'm looking at the Hobart 140, cause it's flux/mig, goes up to 1/4, and runs off a 115v. But I do have a 230v outlet...
The hobart is a great welder. Other recomendations i would make would be either the Miller Millermatic 185 or the Miller 130xp. All three are great general purpose welders between 300 and 1000 bucks. All will weld 1/4 with ease. If you do it right, you can even weld thin metal like floorpans at higher amperages because they 3e so easy to use.
I have a small Miller and love it.
BIRDMAN!!! MY QUESTION TO YOU!!!!!

Oh Birdman! Was the first post a drunken one?:D :D :D :hick:
where is the G spot
You're doing it wrong :hick:
:rollin: :rollin: :rollin:
You're doing it wrong :hick:
why do i have to give up 30% of my paycheck for it to only be given to wastefull government policies that support generations of leaching baby making factories?
why do people buy into a government that would rather spoon feed drivers licenses, an income, free tuition, 100% medical, housing etc. to crim. aliens baby making factories and their offspring, and scumbags of the like while i have to struggle along, busting my ass to pay my mortgague, my ins. fuel my car, feed my family, heat my home, pay my bills, figure out how im going to put my children through college etc.....
On a related subject, why do people who are non-aboriginal themselves hate immigrants?
Hey Mr. !
Dad wants to buy a Jeep Grand Cherokee 99 4x4 4.0 liter engine ? is this one of the worst vehicles build in this world ? i have heard many horror stories about it.....but i dont know....
immigrants are great. its the free loading crimigrants that some of us people hate. earn your way, learn to speak the effing language, pull your own weight and your good with me.
who can possibly think its fair otherwise? how, and why?
i get a little pissed off when my own president thinks my children should speak another language (other than the one of their own country) to accomodate people like this.
The problem isn't with the drive train its with the Grand Cherokee body setup. I've got a 94 cherokee with 245,000miles on it and it still running great. I also know many others with a jeep with a 4.0L with over 200k on it. The majority of the problems I know of are with the body on the Grand Cherokee.
ditto on the cherokee....cherokee ftmfw
please birdman,,
Help me find ammo for this gun http://oldmilitaryrifles.eu/switzerland/switzerland.htm
41cal rim fire.
I had a few rounds but they all were original L&B rounds and my last one will not fire.
wow not likely.
sportsman guide has suprised me before (had my puppies 7.7rounds at like 1.14 each).
...hey birdman....why do u park on a drive way and drive on a park way
ok I took a shower and it reminded me of a really good question
LMFAO he starts the thread and and lets you all take it over!!!!
Why can't men find the "G" spot? :rollin:
Is my new grand baby a boy or a girl?
Why is it so hard for you guys to find the g spot... its really not hard! Unless your just being sarcastic.... then i look like the idiot!
Since hooker ponies have been such a hot topic in another thread...
How do you feel about hooker ponies?
Personally I think prostitution is wrong, regardless of species.
BTW: Where's Birdman??? He hasn't been back since he sobered up.
BTOW: LittleAngel, I found it years ago. Most men can't find it because most women are to embarassed to discuss it with any man and then men have to find it all on their own with no flashlight.
Answers forthcoming. Give me a day or so to catch up. The Bronco2 has been kicking my azz :)
I just took another shower today,
Why when you fart in the shower does it smell different and worse? Is it the humidity?
Can you find me a Hooker Pony?
:hick:
Here ya go:

Third....What if the Hokie Pokie really was what it's all about?

Fifth....Is there any place I can get replacement headlights for less than $60 ea plus shipping?
Sixth....If Teflon is non stick, how does it stick to the pan?
Seventh....Where can I get a new headlight switch for under $70
Eighth....Sugar cone or plain?
Ninth....Am I ever gonna get my Hemi car restored?
Last but not least......Regular? Or Ethyl?
Finally, somebody else that speaks Algonquin! Although I personally prefer the languages of Plains tribes, the languages of the Northeast are richly sonorous.
OMG, I can't believe someone found a hooker pony.
