lol you're funny, Erik.
So what's the plan for tomorrow at the kart track? I was looking at the pricing and was trying to figure out if it's worth it to buy the annual license. I'm also wondering how long a session for 1 round will be in terms of minutes.

Im still down not to worried about cost more worried about how busy it might be. Hopefully there's no reservations

Greg I saw a Viper GTS (about a 2000 or so ) on 42 today, it was so dirty it looked like it hadn't been washed in a month. Would have brought a tear to your eye seeing how poorly it was being taken care of, it was red with black stripes and the plate said Elvis or something.
You guys need to stop having so much fun. It is really boring out here now wish I could be doing some fun things right about now. I think ill be home first week of June unless it changes again. Guess I will need to see if I can talk Ron into grabbing my car out of storage since my engine will be in around end of April early May. Would be awesome cause my car would almost be done when I get home and I could enjoy it more before having to store it again.

took the evo out today.
got some new keys made because I lost my spair... so 250 bucks for two keys, a fob, and reprogramming...
and then I needed a new battery...
and then driving to the dealer with E85 getting about 12mpg....
expensive owning this car.
and for the record, going through the brakes on it last year was a waste of time and money. they still suck. I need to get the wilwoods I wanted to buy and didn't or man up and get a real brembo bbk..... but I'm flat *** broke.

As far as laptops I just went with the Toshiba 17.5 in display with 500g HD with a 2 tb external for the deployment big screen lots of room for movies/skype. As far as desktops i like to build my own last one i built was a intel 7 quad 8g dd3 ram x2 video cards forget which ones x2 24in monitors creative sound card with 60g ssd hd for os 120g ssd for games and 1tb hd for storage plus some other odds and ends i can't really remember it was a few years ago and ill need to build another one when i get home.
It really isnt that hard to build a cpu yourself its all color and size coordinated. I buy all my stuff from Micro center off 36 st and 100 near burlington coat factory I think low prices. Biggest thing is just talk with them and make sure all the stuff your getting is compatible and your power suply is big enough to handle your cpu load. think in all i spent 900-1000 and so far nothing as far as games cant be played on it.
When I build my next computer i can use alot of my old ones parts like power supply hd's even the case if the new mother board fits. ram it all depends if better ram has been made if you want to use that again. so every few years all you have to buy is a new graphic card and mother board processor which is about the cost you just spent on your new hp but you can customize it better like the 350Z

Lol did everyone see the part where I bought the HP 21 all in one already 
yes Ive built cpus but prefer to use the time w building cars and watches now, rather just pay for the cpu intact bc of what the time and life hrs are worth to me overall....my new billing structure for my company has jaded me more to what my time is worth even versus my clinical hour structure rate got to spend the time on passions and delegate the rest.
