Not sure how much longer it will last because oil is getting kinda high and interest rates are rising. Any bit of bad news will cause a big USD rally. In the long-term though, I think the USD will go down, but short-term it may pop soon.

Download a demo account from FXCM and watch it. You might even fool around n try to make some fake money. Never know... Might beat my $200,000 record.

It just needs to go in a straight line up a hill, sounds elementery huh?? We'll be lucky to accomplish that! Should be wild, thats for sure!

Oh boy, I started digging into my nerf-bar and peg situation today and it didn't take long to realize I'm in pretty rough shape. First of all, would someone glance at their pegs to see if mine look bent. I think the passenger side one might be. Seems torqued a little weirdly.

Secondly, the new 350mm bolt bent like a toy. But this time it wasn't entirely its fault. If you look at the mounting holes for the frame, you will notice the front hole is a nice looking oval shape as opposed to round. I tried threading a bolt in there and I can get it to thread in straight, but obviously when I do that, its leaving that ovaled out area empty which will make it that much easier to bend again. Here's the pics:

So would it work if I JBed the ovaled out area then re-tapped that hole? Since I don't think I have a tapping kit, could I thread the bolt in there, then apply the JB? Any other ideas?

Oh and in case anyone was considering it, don't do a 30ft tabletop with your 230!!
