Yardwork is done! Damn, I really enjoy working outside. Planted a bunch of bulbs, so I hope they come up next spring.
Greg stopped by. He got a new toy; a motorcycle. Looks like fun.
I'm going to an Oktoberfest party tonight! My buddy is leaving for Germany on a paid move. Lucky bastid!

Is it DBW? Still, I don't know how the auto/manual can be so different from each other.

I got the car on Sunday.... it is a repairable so I have to get it fixed and inspected. Hoping to have it done in a month. I may be getting another pickup (I am a farmer). If I do, I will be scrapping the project and selling the honda once it is repaired..... hopefully for a profit
That said, the car is really growing on me depsite my wife referring to it as an "Easter Egg". I may just decide I 'need' to keep it and throw a turbo on it

Hey guys I just want to let you know that for the low price of 32.76 I will drive your car around all day. Return it at the end of the day with an empty tank and dirtier than when I got it.

Sorry Aaron and Andrew. You both called me today and I did not have a chance to get back to you. I had a long day at work and just got word that they accepted the offer we put in on the house. I will not be making it for HIN but I will be back in a month or so to get the rest of my stuff. And next year I will come up for some events.
