Spark Plug Recommendation

Sorry to those of you who will berate me for not searching. I am at work, and really don't feel like being fired for spending TOO MUCH time on the internet.

What spark plugs do you guys run in your cars? I am going to replace mine today, and am looking for some recommendations.

Only buy NGK's, unless you want to spend 35 bucks a pop for some denso iridiums that will probably last forever.

NGK makes iridiums also, and they are 7 bucks each at O'reillys. The only problem is that you have to have a special thin-walled spark plug sucket to fit inside the lip on the motor. The stock plugs have a longer body so they stick out far enough for a normal spark plug socket to work.
