oil burning at idle!?
I was just sitting in a parking lot waiting for some ppl and i looked back and saw some blue smoke from the tailpipe...i revved it up and she cleared up for a minute but it still concerns me....i was sitting for about 15 minutes!

Almost positive its leaky valve seals/guides. Basically while your sitting there idling the motor is pumping oil up to the head and it is pooling behind the valve and slowly leaking through and getting burned off. However while under load there is negative crank case pressure which helps draw the oil through the passages in the head back down to the pan and its not having time to pool up behind the valve.
