In sifting through this forum I've seen it recommended many times when noobs start asking beginner type questions, so I thought, being a beginner myself, I would check it out.

and I must say...

It's pretty much the most amazing book I've ever read, I can't stop reading. I'm about halfway right now.

I feel...enlightened. As if agreat load of darkness and stupidity has been lifted from my soul.

It's kind of like reaching level 40 in WoW for the first time and being able to buy your mount.

psh naw naw

OBVIOUSLY, when you hit level 40 you go to your race's home city and find the trainer then you pay like 10 gold to learn how to ride and 90 gold to buy the animal and then you ride off into the sunset at twice the speed of lower level fools

and then later on you get an epic mount which goes even faster!!!! but it costs like 1000 gold OMGz !!!!!111

but I really wouldn't know anything about it...

I'd rather rock nitrous that your... um, what do you have again? Ah, now I remember... a failed compression test so you don't get anything. :D

I highly recommend "How to tune and modify engine management systems"

You don't have an advance auto parts within 45 mins of you? If they don't have one in stock they can order one for you or you can get it online. I payed about $40 for mine.
