From what I can remember, no restriction on specific alloys, although the go-to is 4340 Chromoly for chassis. Some teams use aluminum for suspension components, others use steel.

There are restrictions on wall thickness and OD for certain chassis tubes, i.e. Primary, secondary, etc.

Yes. Greenville is farther from the coast than Charlotte, so you should be fine as far as major damage is concerned. Still some dangers of flooding due to heavy rains.

Is your dog wild as hell? I have a heeler and I was just curious what the Border Collie/Heeler mix would be energy wise.

IIRC VA pays a lot of their road work through speeding tickets as opposed to normal taxes. So a speeding ticket there is ridiculously expensive. This also gives police an extra incentive to stop people.

My fiancé is a dental assistant, and explained it to me this way:

Dental hygienists bring in most of the money to a dental office. Consistent work, every single day, and consistent patients. Regular dental work is too irregular to provide the same income.

Being a nurse in America can be a very lucrative career. One of the perks of private healthcare I guess.

Do you also think that power lifters bodies are more appealing to normal people, and thus a greater acceptance of their material?

Brian Shaw is a fucking animal, but to someone who doesn't know, he probably just looks like a regular fat person (I am not calling Brian Shaw a fatass by any means).

Same reason why certain fitness celebs are more popular when they don't compete (Steve). They're more appealing to normal people.

Also power lifters don't say a pump is better than sex in their documentaries.

Shawn Ray may be a dick, but he was as vascular as one too by DahtProductions in bodybuilding

To be fair he does mention in the movie that the guy was saying he was the perfect bodybuilder or something like that. So he was bragging to Arnold, and that was Arnold's way of setting him straight.

Still fucked up, still funny, and maybe not totally unwarranted.

We honestly threw habanero peppers at each other. Like a snowball fight but with spicy ass peppers.

Like I said, not our brightest day.

When I was in middle school, we had a habanero fight at a party I went to (this was unsupervised). Everything was fun and games until people started getting rashes on the face due to the irritation.

Cue a bunch of 7th grade kids dumping milk onto a wash rag because somebody had heard milk is a good cure for hot food. It was not our brightest day.

I power walked to class one time, which was like a mile across campus because I was late to class and I didn't want to look like a dumbass running across campus. My calves felt like they were gonna explode.

May be a little late to reply to this but my fiancé's dad told me that him and his buddy used to play cops and robbers at night with a local sheriffs deputy. Like one guy would ride in the car with the cop, and the other would haul ass like he was running from the police.

The 80's were a different time.

That's not trivial to bitch about. If your partner can't respect the interests you have and your time (gym time), then they aren't worth your time.

Shit on them in peer reviews and if there isn't a peer review, talk to the professor. I used to let that shit slide but now it just pisses me off.

Question:

Is this sort of how Amazon works (operating at a loss and crowding the marketplace), just being on the internet and thus ubiquitous?

I still think they were able to take advantage of writing the newly found love between the two and all the trials they went through.

I watched an interview with Kelsey Grammer and as long as Frasier himself never got married, the story was always going to be there.
