    Hahaha! One thing I've found that works is a shock collar Travis! My Golden Retriever who's 14 and a half now was the easiest dog in the world to train because he WANTED to please me. We have a 10 month old Standard Poodle that is MUCH too smart for his own good and doesn't always like to listen. Well, a small shock has made him a completely different dog. I don't torture him with it of course, but a nic here and their and he's MUCH more open to listening.

    I bought this one after looking at less expensive models. You get what you pay for! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    I say "leave it" now and the kids toys are out of his mouth before I can say the whole phrase! He used to play keep away with us, NOT ANY MORE!

    Negative Ghost rider ... Seat failed again. NO ..Im not too fat. Just big boned! Looks like the plastic did not hold onto metal too well.

    IMO ..If the panel was new the kit would just reinforce it and would've been a better preventative than anything.


    Still Greg gave me great service and I will always appreciate it

    Fix a rattle I had in the center console at lunch today. Still not sure what it was, but I took most of the console apart and tightened and lubed some diffract areas.

    Also did a front brake job tonight. Hawk HPS pads with DBA 4000 rotors. Everything went smoothly other then trying to lean how to use the clamp with the dial indicator and the fact that I forgot that my only open ended lungs were in the top of the garage above the G8. I already had the drive side apart so I was not going to move the car. Had to be real careful no to fall on the car or drop anything on it.

    I only took the car out to bed the brakes, but I could defiantly feel an improvement in stopping power. Also the new brakes seem to have fixed the last of my vibration issues that I have been having.
