Where do you work, if applicable? I work on the cars in my garage.

I used to help my dad work on cars in the garage, too... But that's when I was really little and was still allowed to swing on the crane. ^^ I wish it's something I would have stuck with, though. I wish I knew more about cars.

I know a bit. Im no mechanic (being that this is the first car Ive ever worked on.), but feel free to ask questions or just name a topic you wanna' know more about. Cars are alot of fun, and I'd love to give some knowledge =)   
I just spent about an hour taking the tranny off the engine to put the torque converter in. Jesus Christ. It was bad. (The torque converter is this 30lb thing that goes between engine and tranny, it bolts onto a spinning part of the engine (flywheel) and hooks onto the transmission. It's point is to take the spinning power (torque) from the engine to the transmission.)

[Sidoh]

lol, you said tranny.

I wish I knew more about cars.

I don't.  Cars are evil!  I'm going to ride my computer to schoo.

Cars are evil only because I make them to be. I'm scared to death of driving for no perfectly good reason. Maybe if I was more familiar with how they worked I wouldn't be so freaked out, but... My parents refuse to drive with me. Haha.

I don't mind driving, but when it comes to working on them (other than maybe doing things like puting in washer fluid and checking the oil -- even those are risky), I'm hopeless. 

I have little interest in the mechanics of an internal combustion engine in a practical sense (I enjoy learning the Physics behind them, but I would not enjoy maintenance on the various parts); I highly suspect it will remain that way.

Are you telling me you want me to explain the basics? I think so. =)

Haha, my parents would never drive with me either. I think they're more scared of me driving than the car, though.

Haha. You probably shouldn't. I'll get lost right after "The ..."

Yeah... See, right after I got my permit after driving a lot in drivers ed, my mom had no time to drive with me. For six months. (Bizarre? Ya rly.) Finally, one day she throws me the keys, and forces me to drive. I hadn't driven in months, I'd never driven a van, and never driven with her in the car. Needless to say, she kept freaking out, trying to grab the steering wheel, yelling, telling me what to do, I got *very* angry, and ended up running into another car.

That might explain why I hate driving so much.

[Joe]

I can tell you that right now I wouldn't dare drive anything other than a moped or a car for fear of sending the world into nuclear winter, without even using nukes.

EDIT -
With the exception of the STFU truck. I drive that all the time.

[rabbit]

Subject in school? Math. Followed by Engineering.

Yay!  You win a cookie.

Chemical? Is acetyline a chemical? I haven't taken chemistry yet.

Yes, acetyline is a chemical, and a damn good one at that

Food? Lately, I've had a huge obsession with Philly cheese steak sandwiches. I'm sure it'll change soon.

If you've never been here, you've never even had one!

Alcoholic drink? Vodka. Type of vodka? Weird, cheap Russian stuff (even though it's cheap, it tastes great.(Yes, I enjoy the taste of vodka.))

Have my babies.

Book? Night by Elie Wiesel, what a hoot, hilarious. Real favorite book? Perhaps Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Maybe Firestarter by Stephen King.

Night is a real book -.-

Author? I don't think I read enough to have a valid opinion, but maybe Stephen King.

Okay, you can only have 2 of my babies.

If you ever are driving in the South Jersey/Philly area, tell me so I can get away please.

[leet_muffin]

Yeah, I know, Night is a real book, but its not my real favorite. =) Its like when someone says something about Schindlers List, I usually respond something along the lines of "Yeah, great movie; truly quality comedy." I think its because I talk to Newby entirely too much.

I really do want a true Philly cheese steak sandwich.

Kaleeko: Dont worry about that; its near impossible to drive correctly while someones yelling at you. Especially in a type of vehicle youve never driven before. I had never driven a car before (only a truck), and my driving instructor was actually yelling at me about the slightest little thing, which made me screw up more, which made him yell more.... Neverending cycle. Finally I pulled over and told him that he needed to stop yelling because it was making me worse, and threatened to go to another instructor company. He shut up and I drove well.

It's not a sandwhich you blaspheming whore!

Sounds like mine!

Except the second time through, I did so well that he didn't yell at me more than a handful of times. Instead, he talked about his history with computers.

Nice. After my instructor got threatened, he became a real nice guy. Odd how charactor changes for money, eh?

[Newby]

So true. Except in my case, it doesn't. Some kid wanted me to take his shift, I was hesistant because I'd rather do nothing. He offered me $35 and nothing changed. Eventually I decided since that I was gonna be sitting at home doing nothing which would get old anyway, I'd take it. The $35 just made the deal sweeter.
