Anyone tried the new flight simulator in Google Earth? Its pretty darn cool! You pick any spot in the world and you can fly around.</end quote></div>
If its the same as it was back in 2006, then I did. If its new new, then no, I haven't seen it. Back then you could fly around though.
I like the street view in google maps. Check out Paris and all those places you can't afford to go. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I don't think they had it back then, but its like a full on flight simulator game. You can fly a jet or a prop plane and take off and land at airports and stuff. Its pretty neat. I just flew home from school in the fighter jet and it took ten minutes! haha!

Hey UGLY, have you ridden Iron Range, Nemadji, or St. Croix State Forest in MN?</end quote></div>
No I have not yet. I have heard of them I just have not had a chance to get up there yet. How are they?

The Stimulous package is moronic. Everything would have evened out eventually, people would restructure personal lives and priorities and things would get better. It is what happens, things even out on a long enough time line if you don't F with them. Now we have all our eggs in one basket and no more chickens in the coop because we want to save the wrong people.
How am I going to be able to afford to rebuild the 230 like this?</end quote></div>
Ah, well, its like I was saying before.... He wants to keep the economy down so he can get these social programs passed and running to take care of those who don't do anything productive in society. If you want money, quit your job, have lots of kids, and slap a solar panel on top of your house. Oh, and don't forget to stop paying your mortgage!
His philosophy appears to be that if you can't make the poor rich, make the rich poor and everyone will be equal.</end quote></div>

They're great trail systems. St. Croix is good for a day trip and is probably the most scenic. There's an old railroad bridge that goes over the St. Croix into Wisoncsin that's super tall and the trail goes over it. Plus the river is super shallow and sandy there so its nice to cool off. The trails are a little rocky though so I'd prefer to take a utility wheeler over the 230 to these trails. I have one pic of St. Croix in my gallery and here's one of the bridge.
You could spend a whole weekend in Nemadji and never hit the same trail twice it seems. Great trail system and you could handle most of it w/ the 230. Really pretty, dense forest.
Iron Range is a beast. Definitely not for the 230s. I can't believe they have some of the trails they do. Some of them are so dangerous. One trail your on the side of a huge hill, the trail is off-camber and its practically a cliff to the side of you falling down into huge rock piles! Its great times up there though. SUPER SUPER challenging terrain. They have one giant mud hole too where people are taking jeeps and everything else in so its fun to go there to watch. A brand new Land Rover LR3 went into the mud pit in the picture I have in my gallery after we did and it went up to its mirrors in mud. Took like 6 trucks to pull him out!

USSA... Hopefully it won't come to that. Bernanke must have said something the markets liked... Dow is up 200pts. Bernanke is tha man! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Now if Obama would call in sick tonight, maybe we can sustain this rally.
Atvman, you should start learning about this stuff... The fast way to wealth is thru investment. Work, make the money, live conservatively, and put everything you can spare out of each check into good companies and retire in 10yrs.
If you bought the Dow at 10k, 9k, 8k, 7k, and then again at 8k, 9k, and 10k.... You'd have a 16% gain at a time when the best you could do is a 2.75% cd from GMAC. Its called dollar-cost-averaging. Even if it only made it to 9k, you'd still be up 7.3%. And buying the Dow is about the slowest way to make money in the market. Of course, the risk of losing it is less too. But hell, Amazon (AMZN) is about as sure of a thing as you can find and it will move much faster than an index like the Dow. Autozone (AZO) has been hitting all-time highs while the market has been tanking. FCX is copper and gold, so the economy tanks and gold goes up, you're protected. If the economy does ok and gold goes down, you'll make money off copper. Getting the income to start out with is the hard part.

At one time I was thinking of moving to the Iron Range part of MN. The atv laws, highly liberal government, and sparse population kinda turned me off. That was back when I was living in OH. I ended up down here because of family mostly and friends I've known since 6th grade. But the mountains are nice. I hate flat country.

I know a fair amount of that stuff, I just don't have the money to be doing it with yet. My dad is also really good with it too so well talk about the stuff he does quite frequently.
