A lot of people have been typing "breaks" when referring to their brakes. It was annoying me.

Default While we are correcting the horrible english here....
The things your tires sit on and that you buy from the store are 'WHEELS' NOT 'RIMS'. the 'RIM' is just the outer portion of the wheel that the tire mounts to and that keeps the air in.

That is all for now..

Default That is unless they're NOT WORKING!...
Then they're BROKES. I'm with ya though; I hate seeing a tranmission called a tranny, which is actually a transvestite or transsexual.
