Show was old 5 seasons ago, only have watched one episode- the Minnesota auditions one, only because it was a Minnesota audition one. I used to subscribe to Entertainment Weekly, so glad I don't have to see that rooster headed fella in there anymore

Zamboni,

It may be old but it is "bank" when it comes to the benjamins! Even before the writers strike, they pulled in 30 million plus viewers last season. This year they look to pump that up even more, I have heard 20% maybe, with no competition from new shows.

I know they are inflating their ad rates to around a million per spot. The Super Bowl gets 3 million but that only happens once a year!

There were some hacks last night. How about the girl at the end that was the Star Wars Freek?? Or the psycho that wrote the song for Paula?? I would of kicked that guy out the 1st verse of his song. I am sure there will be some tonight that think they can sing.

Man, I believe that 90% of those contestants are mentally retarded! Their families actually encourage them to get in front of a camera and make a complete fool of themselves to a national audience! That means that the whole litter has worms! Cheez! \:\(

Grebe,

Everybody wants their 15 minutes of fame. I feel really sorry for the ones that look to be mentally challenged or just a little slow but the stars usually pick up on that and are a little easier on them. The kooks deserve everything they get when Simon unloads.

I only watch the auditions. I do it to get a good laugh. I don't know why everyone is soo into it. Wasn't there a stat that says more people vote on Idol than they do for president? There's somehting wrong here.

I love to hear Simon unload. I think aboiut 15% of those people are actully there to have a shot at winning.

      My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.

      The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.

      It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
