I'm going to Famous Dave's for lunch with the family. It's what I want for my birthday lunch. Been craving some good ribs for a while, and it's conveniently close by.

Might be up for a cruise later today, though. I get to do what I want! As long as it doesn't involve crazy orgies.

No one?


His issue is that he's in Pakistan. lol

I don't have grinding issues when I downshift. I have only had the grinding a handful of times. It doesn't happen often. That's why at first I thought it was me and not the car.



For some reason, I thought I had posted something about that already. Now Tara's telling me we might need a second car since Brandon and Devin are signed up for 2 different sports meaning we'll need to tag team the chauffeuring.
Time to get a new car Take a lease out or something

Pricing is average and they don't BS at all.

You can always call them and see if they could work on a Z/ or know anything about rebuilding the tranny. I haven't had to ask them to fix mine at all yet. Besides that theres a shop here in Woodbury....but its way overpriced and bouchie lol.

and happy bday yo...I keep on hearing its your bday so have a great one you dirty man you. (Jeremih - Birthday (remix) is a good song to end the night bahahah)


btw I'm getting trigger happy on this bad boy

Anyone who has ever been in a bad enough accident, or racing incident will shy away/NEVER view such videos....I pray for no crashes whilst watching races; it's a terrible road.
