Being pretty freaking stoked. More than likely getting a new place very soon, brand new house, with plenty of garage space for my baby. Downside being that most of my disposable Mustang income is going to go bye bye for awhile, headers being my last mod for now.

Congrats!
Finished up removing all of the old mailboxes (2+2 newspaper boxes) that got torn up this winter and cemented the new posts into buried buckets, for easy replacement. Might finally have mail service by Friday after two months without.

It's kind of an odd situation, but it is actually purchasing a house with my parents, right next door to the house that my sister is buying, all in the current part of my town that is "thriving" and where all the new development is happening as far as new buildings and businesses. The house has a guest house in the back, that would be my own personal bachelor pad, with side entry direct from the garage. The main house has a lot of awesome features like tall cellings and doors everywhere(including the guest house), prewired for a network camera system, all the entertainment systems are prewired, a bathtub that fills from the celing, etc. And it's going to have a firepit and fountain in the back yard that is already setup through the gas and water system through the slab.

The guest house has a **** 10-ft tall shower setup to be a steam shower. It's small, which I think is awesome because it is easy maintenance, and the living room is the perfect size to fit a 120" projection screen, and an awesome canvas to dip into home automation. It's going to be awesome.

Pic related, pic of the guest house before they put tile in. They are still about thirty days out on everything, starting to button it up. The builder is not one of those companies that just puts up a bunch of houses, he does a few houses here or there and runs another oil related company; he was originally building the house for himself from what we've talked to him.

I'm sitting her wondering why airline overhead luggage compartments don't have clear panels. If they were clear, people would know they're full and wouldn't open them on top of people sitting down, dumping everything out. Anyone know why this isn't implemented? Seems rather straightforward to me...

Appearances. No one wants to look at other people's luggage for 3 hours.

Staring at a 300lb, mouth-breathing woman with a bad case of BO, fear of flying and a drinking problem in the seat next to me is most certainly NOT preferable to staring at her luggage in the compartment across the aisle.
