    Budget minded meals

    Just curious, I've been on a tight budget lately being unemployed and I've had to watch what I eat. I've been staying active and trying to gain weight, so I've been eating a lot, but cheaper foods. My question is, when the going gets tough, what foods do you turn to? Examples: 1 dollar banquet...

    Who's here to stay?

    I'm just curious. A lot of people have come and gone in the two and half years I've been on here. Some of you guys I consider friends, but you're all family to me! :beer: lots of us are getting new cars, not civics even, and will likely venture out to other forums surrounding their newly found...

    Thinking about my future.

    So my father is about to retire from the fire department in November, and I will lose the health insurance I get through him when he does. So the pressure is on to find a good job with insurance. I am currently working towards my high school diploma (I'm 20, dropped out of high school) and will...

    Tips for the gun range?

    I'm going to the new gun range in town Wednesday morning and they have a WIDE variety of rifles and handguns available for rent and I thought I'd ask some of you more seasoned shooters what a good gun to rent would be. I've shot a few guns and own a 410 shotgun, a .22 revolver (pea shooter, I...

    Second language

    Is anyone on here bilingual? I'm wanting to learn a second language but I'm not exactly sure how to go about it. I would like to learn Spanish first. I've looked into buying Rosetta Stone, but it's pretty pricey. Has anyone on here used it before? Or know of anyone that has? If it's a foolproof...

    Help making a decision?

    So I'm in a weird spot. I just got back from the doctor and he told me I was a textbook example of chronic carbon monoxide exposure. Headache, nausea, dizziness, chest pains, all symptoms I've been experiencing for a while now, they had done some blood work last week the last time I went for...

    Bmw.

    I know this is a civic forum, that's why this is in off topic. As many of you know I've been saving for a bike. My car has been giving me a few more issues lately and a friend of mine approached me selling his old 96 3 series. I'm not particularly fond of his, being in the condition that it's...

    Abnormally low gas mileage.

    So I just got back from a friends house and he lives an hour away. The drive is an hour for 50.9 miles. I filled up before I left, and then went there and back. It's all interstate driving. So for a total of 101.8 miles, I used almost half a tank of gas. Five gallons to be exact. So 101.8 miles...

    Car cuts off when coming to a stop/ low idle.

    Car is a 1996 Honda civic EX. Stock besides intake and header. So I've been having this problem for a little bit now and I can't seem to figure it out. My car will cut off after either hard or long drives. I make about an hour trip to Eatonton once a week or so, and every single time when I...

    Wireless Internet help.

    So I know there's a few tech junkie members on the site, so I thought I'd see if anyone could offer any insight to my problem. I think it's my router. My Xbox keeps losing connection at random times, but all that has to be done is unplug the router for thirty seconds and plug it back in. Fixes...

    States requesting to secede from the union.

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/11/12/states-petition-obama-administration-to-secede/ Something to think about... Texas has already reached the required amount of signatures to receive a response from the white house, so I'm waiting for that. The last time the...

    Brightest lights.

    So I'm having a little trouble with my visibility at night and I'm exploring my options, looking for the brightest lights I can use. I'm currently using a cheap ebay HID kit in my stock headlights. I know it's horrible, but you live and learn. I've looked into sylvania ultralights, and a couple...

    Speedometer working intermittently

    So as the title says, my 1996 Civic EX's speedometer only works when it wants to. I had a 1995 civic where the speedometer just didn't work at all and the VSS was the problem, but it was throwing a CEL for the VSS. Mine is not. I took the cluster out today to replace all of the lights and made...

    Another computer thread! :D

    That's right, get excited Billy, Joe, and all of club civic's other computer tech junkies ^_^ I bought a laptop today, and I want to upgrade it to run games better. Gameplay is a little choppy right now. There's one game in particular that I like to play a lot and would like to be able to...

    Has anyone downloaded the new update? Every time I log in it prompts me the update. I would hate to update and not be able to access the forums for whatever reason. Anyone done this yet? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Clutch pedal soft

    I'm having this issue on my 1996 civic ex. It's always had a bad 2nd gear synchro so I've had to skip second since I got the car and now my clutch pedal has become extremely easy to press, not much pressure to it. I checked the fluid reservoir and it's really low, but I can still see some fluid...

    Choices for health insurance.

    My fiancé is 19 and will turn 20 this December and is needing to go to the doctor but doesn't have health insurance. She is not employed but has been once before. Her family has a low income and do not work either, they collect a disability check. My question is, given this information, does...
