engine taps at startup, gets faster as I accelerate.?
No loss of power while driving and it's very rapid right at startup. Much slower at idle and every once in awhile for no apparent reason, it'll stop like the snap of a finger. Almost like it's righted itself. There's no particular rhyme or reason to it. But when it's doing it, people stare my way like my car is a magic eye or something. Appreciate any help ahead of time and enjoy your weekends.
2 AnswersOther - Cars & Transportation6 years agoHow do people still find the bible to be a moral book when it condones slavery, murder, blood sacrifice, human sacrifice, infanticide,...?
genocide, sacrifice of one's own spawn, and the persecution of thought crime? Seems to me to be much more of an evil book.
14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality6 years agohow should I ask for a raise?
Without getting into specifics, received a dollar an hour raiser last June after having been there for a c year. I'm extremely pivotal to the company and would be very tough to replace. It's now been 14 months since my previous raise so I feel I'm about due. Any thoughts?

I get it if your situation is that you've been brainwashed from childhood. It's not your fault at that point. But anybody else, what is wrong with you?
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoWhy are christians so adamant about voicing their opinion to those who are atheist and aren't bugging them?
I mean, I can be somewhere minding my own business when someone enters the scene who knows me. He/she will make a snide remark (very Christian-like BTW) and I'll defend myself, and then suddenly they are transformed into preach mode. It's so annoying. Are they that needy of attention?

If no, why not? Go take 2 hours and improve your recognizance of the world we live in. If so, how can you take religious people seriously after it?
6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoHow rare (or common) is it for an 11 year old little leaguer to be able to consistently throw 70 mph, along with locating very efficiently?
So, here's the deal. I've been teaching my son how to pitch now for the last 3 years. I've coached the team he has been on for the last 2. Yet, I did not allow him to pitch in a game until last season, simply because I understand all that comes with it. Mechanics, mentality, competitiveness, disappointment in failure, etc. So, I went full ninja style training on him and told him he must learn how to pitch from the ground up, so to speak. Y'know, build a strong foundation of correct fundamentals such as the proper windup, good use of hips, good follow through, implementing of a secondary pitch, what to expect in a game, both from opposing batters as well as snowballing thoughts in his own head. For the first year almost, I wouldn't even let him use a ball until he had a good solid windup and delivery. So, last year, he finally got into games, and threw real hard, but was wild, and inconsistent in locating. I paid little mind to pitch speed because of this. He was determined to progress, so we started an off season routine about twice a week, every week, to correct said issues. Fast forward to now- Not only did I finally clock his speed (Juggs gun, 70 typically, has hit 71 on a few occasions), but if I tell him to put the ball at the knees, on the outside corner of the plate, that's exactly where he puts it. I gave him 30 pitches to hit 30 different spots with both his heat, and his change up, and he nailed 23 of them, while only being off a bit on 5 others, & 2 wild
2 AnswersBaseball7 years agowhy every time when i post a legitimate question about proof of god?
does my posting get littered with answers which basically contain 1 or more of three things.
1. Bible quotes/scripture- I'm sorry, but reading back the bible quotes that you find enlightening to me doesn't prove a darn thing, and you know it. or you're clueless.
2. remarks of how they will pray for me, or that one day I will find god- okay, that's not proof either. that's simple avoidance of the question at hand. you aren't fooling anyone.
3. Extreme hate and reprimand, telling me im evil cuz I don't believe, and that it must be cuz I either sin my butt off or am just up to some good old fashioned god hatin'.
Why can't, for one time only, maybe.....someone just provide the proof? Do that, and I'll believe, Sounds pretty cut and dry to me.
17 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agocan anyone tell me why this tinman dude keeps following me and my comments around?
When clearly, I have higher moral standards than he does, as I would never single anyone out in effort simply to ridicule and demean them. I've never met this guy or talked to him, yet he professes to know so much about me. Maybe he's a sociopath?
4 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agowhy is it every time i visit the site here, there is always some Christian attacking atheists?
First, they go through the whole sales pitch if love bound fear, guarantee love and forgiveness. Then, in the same fell swoop, or often times directly following an inability to clearly answer a simple question, they begin to let us know how we are terrible people, and will burn. Yikes, it just seems like they don't at all practice the very methods in which they preach.

4 AnswersVideo & Online Games7 years agoWhy on Xbox 360 Madden online gaming, are there so many cheaters and morons who exploit hiccups in the game?
there are a lot of dudes who play online as a way to be competitive and enjoy their time. But idiots like to ruin it for actual football fans by using codes, or finding a glitch in the game, such as the speed of chris Johnson in that if you run a sweep and go all the way to the edge before you turn upfield, its absolutely impossible to hold to anything less than a ten yard gain. these losers use this play, and others very similar to it, like 25 times in a row. This makes me quit, which knocks my score down. On top of that, they usually send a message afterwards, talking trash about how they are so good, when in reality, they didn't do crap as far as game planning or strategic thought goes. then there are the dudes who run the hurry up offense the entire game. These flakes aren't cheating, I know. But man, what a way to admit how weak you are, since you obviously don't believe in yourself enough to allow your opponent to formulate his own game plan. If all of these second class citizen's would just take the time to learn and understand the game of football, they might just gain some actual skill/ability. What are they so afraid of that they feel it necessary to act like complete immature idiots?
4 AnswersVideo & Online Games7 years agocan anyone provide me with any real, substantial evidence or proof that validates your claim that God exists?
I've talked to some of the most devout religious folks, many of which are good friends and/or highly respected individuals in the community. I never seem to Get a straight answer. Just double talk, and Bible verses, and people constantly saying "that's why its called faith". That's BS, i want proof.
