I've got about 320 or so I guess.

Some of them I've had for 25 years or so. Like U2 Unforgettable Fire I got in the 8th grade. lol

It was my very first CD. Madonna was my 2nd. And Beastie Boys was my 3rd.
Madonna, really? c'mon man

And that's on the safe side. We only had 2 close games, the rest were blowouts of 38-6, 36-12, and 31-6. I was in 5 tackles last night, hurried the QB a few times, and 3 times hit him, one of which caused a pass to nearly be picked off. The other team scored on their first and last posessions, but couldn't do anything otherwise, so I really don't have too much to report lol. Now I'm free to get stronger, and find a job

Partseses have arrived for the Vert.

Including:
New Front Bumper
Wires
Coil
Rotor cap
CAI
headlight bulbs
STB
springs
02 extenders

and thats it for now.

Some parts are still in transit and the Steeda stuff will be here tomorrow, and the rest of the American Muscle stuff will be here Monday.

I also finally got my tune and my jpeg from my dyno tune. I kept having to remind the guy and he begrudgingly gave it to me. He said it was a courtesy and I paid for the dyno tuning and not the tune file.

Well I guess I won't use him again. He said I shouldn't need it. But WTF happens if something happens to my tuner. Or the tune inside the car. Anyway. I got it. I was disappointed in his attitude though. I should have gotten it that night before I left. And the dude even said he would 'give' it to me the next day by email when he got in. But because it was so late we all wanted to get home.

So here's the dyno chart...
What a jerk that guy is, but great that you got the tune and the vert parts.

Who here thinks I should do a T-5 swap in the vert?
I think it'd be sweet, but since the vert is a cruiser, stick with auto and some rear gears

jeez, this is all the posts for a day? it ain't like ya'll been out doing something...

I got up this morning, took dad's car to the Ford place to have an issue checked on...end of story, he needs a new EGR valve, and spark plugs, and he's tired of Ford's crappy service. Got some uber-delicious breakfast, and then got my oil changed..I think I'm going to have to start going back there more often...the chick that does the reception area stuff also checked the fluids under the hood of my car...I was distracted for a few minutes, haha.

I've now got two perfectly clean cars. Dad helped me out, and what a difference having two people makes. In 6 hours, we washed, cleaned, waxed, did the tires and wheels, vaccuumed, rainx-d, installed new windshield wipers, cleaned the weather seals and dash and windows, and stripped off an old sticker. Our two cars look epically awesome!

now onto grabbing a shower, and making some dinner, as well as watching a football game. Congrats Gary!

Good news and bad news..

good news: bike is home and its sweet




Bad news.. on the drive from San Fran to my house ~32ish miles it blew a gasket and started leaking oil and burning it off on the cooling fins. the leak isnt very bad, and the oil that was in there was far too thin to be using anyway. we put in some thicker oil and kept it off the freeway (but it was still moving at 50ishmph) with no more leaking or burning, so i guess thats good news. I plan on tearing it down and somepoint and doing a rebuilt. the chain and sprocket may need replacing soon too. overall not too bad for an 1100 dollar bike. I was concerned what pete would think of the bike, since hes really got the most experience with them, especially ones that break. despite the leak he thinks its a pretty good bike and a good purchase on my part, something he seldom expresses lol, so i guess arin done gone and did good this time around.

anyhow video!

Congrats! And sorry about the gasket, maybe it's just an excuse for bigger plans?

So I took the Mustang to the store today instead of my truck. I drove my moms car a few days ago, and I gotta say, both have way more pick up, and handle awesome! The Escape is insano fun with the stick, and the mustang, OMG it feels like it's on rails. I was taking turns I do at 15-20 at 35.

Moral of the story: I never realized how spoiled I was in what I was able to drive all the time.

Bike looks sweet Arin, Congrats!! Sucks about the gasket, but that's all part of the fun.

Arin speaks the truth. And because of this, I hate driving my dad's truck and my mom's yukon xl.

Got both the notch and GT's insides cleaned out. Notch is still pretty clean on the outside expect for a couple spots that can be fixed with detailer and a rag. GT needs to be washed really bad. She's covered in mud and roadspray and I refuse do drive her around like that tomorrow.
