EcoBoosted With the recent news of EcoBoost being chosen as the primary short term fuel savings technology for Ford, I'm primed for excitement about potentially owning all-boosted vehicles. The Ranger is already slated for a 4 cylinder, and now the Mustang SVO may make a comeback. With my choices made years before their available, it was only natural to snag EcoBoosted.org and whomp up a forum where I can spew my obsession to an interactive audience. By the time the technology is mainstream, I'll have spewed out enough rants to scare off anyone but the most hardcore, which means it will be Stavos and I as exclusive members. Engage jealousy now!

You mean Stavos will jump to the Blue Oval Side?!?
R1OT
This really has nothing to do with the post, but your UPS has a COMM ERROR... and per the log, the amount of times you lose power it shall be deemed a class-3 emergency alert.
Brian
I hold in my hand the red pill and the blue pill, your choice will ultimately change your life. I of course took the red pill back in 2002 by purchasing the opposite of a eco car with a smog creating V8 engine and removed my cats. So ya it's very ironic I'm the first member of a Eco forum. I have high hopes for this site already!
Stavos
Would owning a cougar be like taking the pink pill?
MorlockPrime
The Communication Panel is now a GIANT RED X which has been bumped up to level 5 emergency alert. It's been nice knowing all of you.
Stavos
Abandon ship! These coments are now the only way we can communciate. I hope to god Brad's access server doesn't die!
MorlockPrime
Brads Access database isn't Eco friendly therefore i'm reporting this to the fat ass Al Gore, he will prompty tax the hell out of Brad for no reason and blame global warming. Save the polarbears Brads killing them with his access database!
Stavos
Running an Access Database is like pouring motor oil out on your grass. Hey, doesn't brad do that to? Get the EPA on his ass!
MorlockPrime
Yeah but that was my idea, it fuels bonfires very efficiently saving tree's, paper, and lighter fluid therefore it saves the environment. So I'll just shove my carbon footprint up Al Gores hefty ass in a green sort of way of course!
Stavos
Considering how much green Al Gore probably eats, something tells me you're foot's going to be all kinds of green after you shove it up his ass.
MorlockPrime
It comes off better then bacon goop.
Stavos
Yeah, but can you use it to run your bacon grease cougar?
MorlockPrime
im number 3 member!
enorym
Yes your an ensign or a red shirt
Stavos
I think that means he cleans the toilets.

Cougarfest 2008, the yearly event I started for 1999-2002 Mercury Cougars ended yesterday. Since it was the 10th such event we named it Cougarfest X to be both eXtreme and Mac OS X compatible. This year it returned to the Indianapolis hotel that tolerated us lighting fireworks off the roof two years ago. This year was relatively free of illegal activities, focusing instead on RC car Jumps, glow golf, and other things that are funny only when intoxicated. Some scary shots of EternalOne and Lisa singing country Karaoke pretty much sum up the rest of the event.

User Comments for 07-14-2008:
I sense this article will be topping the top 10 most commented articles once a certain Morlock see's this....
Stavos
haha at the mac comment
Lisa #2
Wow, I can't believe this article has been up for a whole day and we've seen barely any comments from Cougay owners. Seriously though, have you considered that you're holding an annual festival to celebrate your couGayness? Why don't you fairies just have a parade already? Better yet, next year, take half the money you were going to spend on couGayfest, give it to Stavos and I, we'll kick you in the nuts and call it a day.
MorlockPrime
You might be a cougay owner if your dissed by someone that owns a Jetta!....
Stavos
Hey, I might have a Jetta but I'm going to drop in a super charger and get a car kit. Then I'm going to load up my car with LEDs and give it a goofy name! By the time I'm done I'll be beating all of the couGays on the Tim Horton's runs.
MorlockPrime
Cougarfest was fun this year! I won second place for 'Best Stock' and I also won a very nice license plate frame.
Silvercup
http://www.gaywheels.com/top_10_researched_vehicles_2nd.htm ...I can't make this one up...Look at the #10 Gayest car....
R1OT
Sorry for the double post, but I looked back into the archive for the site. Jetta has been on there top 10 list since 1st quarter of '07. What year is your jetta?
R1OT
Somehow i'm not suprised a cougar owner was checking out a site about gay cars. I'd check it out and find out if what you say is true, but I try to not go to gay sites....except for this one.
MorlockPrime
He's an exCougay owner... But if you owned a Cougar in your life time, than your always a Cougay owner like your always an alcoholic. Confused? Good...
Stavos
Not really confused, but curious. Are you saying, if you're an alcoholic at one point in your life you always are, or are you saying I'm an alcoholic. Either way you're probably right.
MorlockPrime
Some people call it a disease and blame it on that, However I blame it on Canadians, and I'm sure Tim Horton's and Bacon are involved in their devious plans to stay neutral in the course of history... Somehow.
Stavos
Not just bacon Stavos, Canadian Bacon. You know I think I figured out the only way to make a cougar worse! We'll paint Canadian flags and Timo Horton's logos on all of them. When's the next CougarFest? Stavos and I have some "work" to do.
MorlockPrime
How ironic would it be if a Canadian made the first automobile that ran on Bacon grease? And that automobile would obviously be a Cougar. Then when times get rough you can see all the Canadians sucking on their tailpipes! Brilliant! Proceed with production ASAP!
Stavos
Well they would but there aren't any factories or scientists left in Canada. Theres just Tim Horton's and Tim Horton's employees.
MorlockPrime
Well if that is true the only college majors left in Canada would be: Tim Horton's manager, Tim Horton's employee, Bacon factory worker, and royalty hand waver.
Stavos
Actually, Royalty Hand Waving isn't taught in normal Canadian Colleges. You have to be preselected by a special and secret committee that reports directly to the monarchy. Other than that you're correct. Tim Horton's manager, Tim Horton's employee, Bacon Factory worker. They're still 4 year colleges. The people in charge of Tim Horton's want to be sure the employees realllllly get it. That and Canadians are notoriously difficult to train.
MorlockPrime
You also forgot the obvous problem. Canadians are practically expelled from France and England. Do they even have a Queen or whatever in their "country"?
Stavos
Well they don't. They still worship the British monarchy, Queen Elizabeth that is. She however, disavows their existance. Sort of like the whole Christians and god thing. They believe in him but he doesn't believe in them.
MorlockPrime
Honestly all I did was put Gay and jetta in the search, google did the rest.
R1OT
A likely excuse. My computer doesn't let me type in that word though. It changes it to MANLY automatically.
MorlockPrime
Well simply disable the AutoManly and you can do all the searching you want, afterall that's what you do at night on the weekends tiger! rawr! haha
Stavos
You've been checking my googl historyagain haven't you?

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 07-06-2008 Waterford Hills Open Track Day View Webcam for 07-06-2008 6 COMMENTS
Waterford Racing Today was open track day at Waterford Hills race track. Despite the fact that Leinnintiger was the one who alerted me to the event, he was nowhere to be found the entire day, which made me sad. Fortunately my neighbor was excited enough to join me instead as his dad works there, and at 10:00am we were off and racing. One of the workers at the event drove me around the track a few times prior to my sessions to point out the best places to enter and apex the turns. It definitely helped me carry my speed along the track all day. I was surprised to find myself passing other cars when I was sure I'd be waving people past all day. I also experienced brake fade for the first time in my life, and it's definitely a scary experience. Since all 3 of my sessions were just hot laps, there was no timing, so the only measure of how well I was doing was based on who I passed. I was in the mid-level experience group, but I'm sure I just got lucky and started behind the lower experienced racers.
Session 1: Passed Alfa Romeo Milano and a Honda Prelude
Session 2: Passed my neighbor's SVT focus, got passed by a firebird and Sti
Session 2: Passed a Jetta and a Mustang GT (think he was a novice driver).
Also got this horrible attempt at an on-track video thanks to my lack of any proper camera mounting equipment. Track racing beats AutoCross hands down. Needless to say I'm already signed up for the next event.
User Comments for 07-06-2008:
ahhh brake fade. I agree, it's damn right creepy.
MorlockPrime
A Jetta passed you...should of put him in the wall yelling.."cougay this!!!"
R1OT
Ah glad to hear you beat your neighors vette, and camaro killer focus! lol
Stavos
Get some real brake pads: Hawk DTC-60 Get some sticky tires: Toyo RA1 or Hoosier R6 (A6 of you're going to autocross) Get sick of only passing on the straightaways and get a competition license. Then get a car you're not afraid to ball up and race like a real man ;-)
Duane
... seriously... I'm just glad you got out there and saw what you and your car could do. Talk me into taking my Neon out there in October... Maybe you can try it on a few laps...
Duane
you need to instruct your neighboor on how to capture your whole car in the picture on the track.

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 07-04-2008 July 4th Fireworks View Webcam for 07-04-2008 4 COMMENTS
With my illegal Ohio fireworks already expended on previous shenanigans, July 4th was looking grim for entertainment. Fortunately my neighbor was up for a round of disc golf to pass the time. Afterwards, we discovered the Hamburger Hut on Grand River and Delaware, where we told the waitress our life story while recovering from a drunken stupor. The missing fireworks were replaced with a burning tree, which prompted a trip to the new development for wooden palettes for more fuel to feed the fire. It was then decided wooden palettes make better fires than dead pine trees and road closed signs.

I think my house would make the best bonfire ever.

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 06-30-2008 NavTraffic/NavWeather Upgrade View Webcam for 06-30-2008 7 COMMENTS
Traffic/Weather Excelciers recent acquisition of the new Ford Sync system, including XM traffic/weather, combined with Lisas request for weather/traffic conditions on the way to Chicago made me jealous enough to subscribe. For $59 you get 6 months of data-only service (no music channels) which I was told is the best option for a jew such as myself who enjoys making his wife listen to the same 8GB of MP3s over and over on trips. My KNA-G510 nav unit overlays the weather/traffic almost as cool as the Sync system, but lacks the gas price comparison screen that shows you the lowest gas price along your route. Lisa was of course ecstatic about the new features, and immediately called her mother to brag. My neighbor was also more excited than usual, and we spent the remainder of the afternoon discussing traffic and weather as you can see on the GnomeCam. Lisa joined us after she finished telling her mother all about it.
User Comments for 06-30-2008:
And you left the cougay outside all night you bastard! Somehow I believe Lisa was just as excited as Candy gets over my new gadgets which is about 0.3% excitement at best. Glad our man friends care or else it's pointless!
Stavos
Wow you were flying....it took your car aver an hour to get to the end of the driveway.
R1OT
Hey R10t what's with all the commenting all of a sudden? sually i'm all by myself
Stavos
Amazing technology...
Excelcier
I'm here with you Stavos! Well by "here with you" I mean I'm about 2000 miles away. Lloyd, is your screen big enough to show 2000 miles? Time to upgrade to the 42" in dash display.
MorlockPrime
Why not...lol

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 06-29-2008 Redford Follows Me Home View Webcam for 06-29-2008 7 COMMENTS
Tonight I looked outside to find my arrogant gay neighbor getting chased by a gang of people from the trailer park. They started yelling at him for driving too fast into the street and almost hitting their kids, which is something he would definitely have done. They then proceeded to chase him around his own yard while he continued to challenge them to a fight. His persistent arrogance in the face of getting thoroughly beaten leads me to believe he's mentally challenged as well. The whole scene was so entertaining I completely forgot to videotape it until the very last 30 seconds after all the action was over. The GnomeCam only caught my other neighbor and his friend discussing the aftermath. It looks like Redford finally followed me to my new house. I can only hope it turns out to be at least half as entertaining.
User Comments for 06-29-2008:
Best blog ever. That is definitely a Redford event.

....is it Canada!!!!1 what do I win?
Stavos
I can not reply in the affirmative or the negative. If I could say you had won, then you would have won some advice....don't buy a Cougay. Also, don't eat at Tim Horton's.

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 06-27-2008 Doppleganger Pond Construction View Webcam for 06-27-2008 4 COMMENTS
At 10:44am today, you can see the doppleganger building a pond with the assistance of Lisas parents, who were completely fooled into thinking it was their daughter. This time she spent over 8 hours constructing it, exceeding the time Lisa typically spends watching TV. This amount of time spent on manual labor should squash any skepticism about her abduction. While her parents fell for the fake, I'm still waiting for it's ultimate purpose to reveal itself, and when it does I hope to at least locate my wife. Once I find out where she is I'm not sure I'll want to rescue her as the doppleganger is growing on me more and more.
User Comments for 06-27-2008:
As long as you don't hear her chanting BIZZARO.. you should be ok. http://youtube.com/watch?v=OqcOpmoybQE not the exact episode...but still funny.

LOL I thought the pond was going away!?! I love the typical supervisor stance at 5:49pm

HAARP Attacks! The last few storms that travelled through Michigan had a very distinct radar signature. An intense circle of activity, surrounded by a very thin ring of less active rainfall, which was then surrounded by a perfectly clear day. The entire diameter of the storm rarely exceeded 50 miles, which just doesn't add up to natural occurrence three times in a row. My first thought was terrorists, but while cruising the tin foil hat scene, I found HAARP, then the HAARP conspiracy site which you'll notice uses a javascript dissolve effect, lending credit to it's authority. I'm now convinced this is what's causing the weaponized hyper-focused storms, and Alaska is simply checking off city targets as they roll through, performing final testing of the system. The take away is, if you lose power from a storm, send a bill to HAARP, they should get you taken care of.
User Comments for 06-26-2008:
We should start fineing website that use that dissolve feature for $75.00. Atleast I have an all in one spot to enjoy all my fake moon landings, 911 conspiracys, and cell phone exploding gas stations now!

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 06-25-2008 I Fought The Law View Webcam for 06-25-2008 4 COMMENTS
Grass Law! The high class city that is Redford, MI decided keeping grass under 6 inches would significantly affect home values. Never mind the inoperable vehicles spotting yards, 400lb shirt less hillbillies holding beers, or various police standoffs, the key to saving the city is keeping the grass under 6 inches. They recently started ticketing violators and since my house is next to someone who never mows their yard, I was chosen for the ticket since I pay my taxes and have not foreclosed on my house. A side benefit of this rule is a quick $75 from homeowners who don't want to bother fighting it, but after having the building department "lose" my furnace inspection certificate and subsequently attempt to fine me for non compliance, I was not about to give in to another attempt at extortion. Fortunately I wasn't the only one who thought ticketing citizens who pay their taxes on time was worth fighting. Four of us stood in front of the judge and attempted to convey the circus that is passed off as the office of building and safety. Apparently we became annoying as the judge suddenly said "just go" dismissing the charges. The quality of Redford city administration continues to reassure me that home value recovery is just around the corner.
User Comments for 06-25-2008:
This article was worth the wait. My lawns been 12" once and no one cared. You always seem to be wondering in a court room every year don't you?
Stavos
Brad forgot to mention the multiple crack houses that now surround me, and the hillbilly that I almost got into a fight with at 2am a few days ago, or the house across the street that was playing music super loud at 3:30am on Monday (to which I started chucking rocks at the house from my porch, in typical Redford style). Yeah, it's a shame when I'm the high watermark for class in the city. =)
E1
Sounds like my neighorhood as well. We've just call the cops when they play music real late and in 15min we can actually sleep. No more crack houses they rid them last year.
Stavos
You can only qualify to chuck rocks while wearing a wifebeater and holding a beer in the other hand. Otherwise your reaction is null and void. Did they actually hear the rocks hitting over the music?

Rating: 3 - Link to this Article 06-24-2008 Lisa Abducted! View Webcam for 06-24-2008 3 COMMENTS
Wife or Alien After a call from my "wife" asking where a hand shovel was, I decided to tune into todays GnomeCam to see what was up. To my surprise, somebody who looked a great deal like her was out in the yard weeding at 1:00pm. Not only is this unusual behavior for my wife, it's unprecedented, which immediately lead me to believe someone had kidnapped my wife and a lookalike was now weeding my front yard. After arriving home, my geiger counter did not register any radiation, which ruled out alien abduction, but her resemblance was so uncanny it seemed unlikely it was only cosmetic modification to a similar person. The chicken my mother was cooking in the stove mysteriously had the pan crack, which then prompted the lookalike to prepare it for rotisserie, no doubt something she saw my wife doing on a recent photo album, hoping that would disspell my suspicions. The neighbors then arrived for dinner, and all appeared to be fooled, but I know what I saw and Lisa if you're out there, I'm still looking for you!
User Comments for 06-24-2008:
I think she just wants some jewerly or something. Stay on guard.
Stavos
If she's starting to do yard work, maybe next she'll start bringing you beer. Then she'll bring you your slippers when you get home. This could be a good thing.
