As with most food items these days, they don't make them like they used to.
I remember when Golden Grahams was the bomb. Now, I can't even look at the box.

In a similar vein... as a kid I ate "Sugar Pops", then they became "Sugar Corn Pops", and now they're "Corn Pops" -- still just as yummy and unhealthy.

Ditto for "Sugar Smacks" which became "Honey Smacks".

Sugar became a dirty word. So did salt. The Salted Nut Roll became the Nut Roll or maybe Peanut Roll for a time. I think it's back to Salted Nut Roll now.
If I may be excused, I need to visit the vending machine.

Oh, I imagine, 'Now Made With Sea Salt!' is on the label, you know the 'good' healthy salt, as opposed to the 'bad' salt of days gone by.

Keep in mind I prefer the taste of sea salt, and I like the versions where they don't add crap to it. With that being said, it is funny how much people will believe. My sister once told me sea salt didn't have sodium like regular salt.

I agree, I just enjoy watching how something that was 'taboo' is now a sales feature, especially one which suggests some sort of health benefits ('Made with all natural sea salt!').

Clearly I have a different idea of what "no threats detected" means compared to Kaspersky and MS Security Essentials[^] (That's the StormAlert malware in case you're curious)
This is on a machine that I've *just* formatted and reinstalled. I'm suspecting either TrueCrypt or DaemonTools Lite as the malware culprit. I cannot, however, believe that two ofthe top anti-virus apps completely missed this infection.
Scary.

Caution to the overly sensitive - contains copious amounts of rude f*uckin language...
I honestly despise working for a defence contractor. I've been at my current job for about 6 months, and have been writing code and sql stored procs like a madman. As of Friday, there was an issue with me having access to the database because I don't have a MCSA. After some gnashing of teeth and some high-level meetings between the command staff and the Colonel in charge of my department, I now have partial access back - I can log onto the server, and I can see the databases on it, and I can even add/remove data from the tables, but I don't have VIEW or EXECUTE privileges on any of the programability components - even the ones I wrote.
What a royal mother f*uckin pain in the f*uckin ass. I'm seriously considering quitting because of it.
As a result - I've sitting here whackin my c*ock for three f*uckin hours waiting for someone to read their f*uckin email.

Are you ex-military, I ask as one who has done work similar the ex-Army I worked with were either supremely calm if they were NCO or lower officers, hyper like you are if they were a Captain or higher. That was how you tell them apart (Staff Sergent I knew blew like a volcano akin to you here). Cheer up you could be in my place, how's the Mustang!

I was enlisted. I just want to get the job done. I took a personality test at a previous hjob, and it determined I'm an "implementer" (don't bother me with minutia - tell me what you need and let me do it).

It's putting out 439rwhp/454rwtq. It stops making power and goes lean at 5600 rpm. I think it might be that we're exceeding the capability of the OEM fuel pump.
I posted a pic of the car recently on a car forum with the caption, "Chuck Norris? Never heard of her..."

AN-6 (3/8-inch ID), which should be more than large enough. It went lean and stopped making power at 5600 RPM. Tells me that we might be starving the float bowls. Gotta put it back on the dyno to see...
In the interest of completeness, we converted the OEM dead-head fuel system into a return-type fuel system (also using AN-6 line).
We also used a fuel pressure regulator to nect the pressure down from 55psi to 6.5. We could probably increase the pressure a little (to 7psi), but the higher we set it, the more likely it is that at lower speeds, we'll be overpowering the needle/seat in the float bowl and pushing fuel out of the overflow tubes on the carb (most carbs can't handle much more than 7psi).
