Man it's been a rough night. I hate firing people, especially when they are a friend. Not a close friend but more of a work friend. I feel bad that I had to fire the guy but he kept screwing up and that's my job as a supervisor. This is the job that pays my bills and I don't get paid to he peoples friend, I get paid to make sure people are doing their jobs and people aren't always gonna like me but it still sucks. This is the way of a boss lol that and you really shouldn't have sex with chicks that you met on craigslist while you're at work lol that's just asking to get fired.

I think it's funny that you guys are still talking about the Lakers.

They are not "thugs" (Odom and Bynum), they are cowards. Thugs rough you up throughout the game, cowards take cheap shots when they are getting their butts whipped.

I'm not a Lakers fan (obviously), but you can't lose respect for the franchise. They are a world class franchise who happened to get PWNT this year.

Chris, as a fan of the sport you should have respect for the Mavericks. They are a clean playing team who can't be accused of anything but playing hard and having class. Dirk Rules!

Yes Eric, your are correct....we got this time....And I do have respect for the Mavs as a team....however I can have even better respect for a team that wins a Championship Ring ! I really hope they actually do get it this year....Dirk & the boys all deserve it.

Hey Jake,

The Quaife is on it's way ! I should have it by the end of this week ( I hope ). Do you think we can put on the HFC's, Rear sway, diff bushings/pumkin all in the day ?

Congrats to both Jake and Jason!



BTW, is there anybody who can lend me a spare wheel with or without tire for a day or two? Discount Tires scuffed up my brand new wheel that I just put on a couple of months ago while using an impact (lug holes are scuffed up), so I need a spare wheel to let my car sit on for a day or two while my wheel is getting repaired. The Z will not be driven while sitting on your wheel, other than a total of 10 miles to them and back. I just need a wheel that can clear OEM Brembo calipers in the front and, of course, I will come pick up the wheel and drop it off. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the unexpected financial costs......but they are your babies and you have taken good care of them.

Who's your Daddy ?

I haven't ton's of money....I just sold my Volks so I can purchase other items...just look around your place for things to sell...I bet you can find a bunch of things.

I just replace older items with newer ones for almost the same cost. basically, it's a " Tit for Tat " mentality.

With all your OT you should have plenty of extra cash for some springs...those are only about 2-3 bills....probably only one nights work for you.

Chris (Park),

I've got spare stock wheels (17"). I'm not sure if the factory 17s clear the brembos though.

17" OEM wheel should fit. I'm supposed to pick up a 17" wheel from Patrick, but thanks for the offer, Eric.

A big thanks to Pat for helping me out with my HFC's & rear sway install...he gave me the motivation to get them on. I hate to do things by myself...so he helped me out by coming over to do it for me. We knocked it out pretty quick for us....I think it was only about 2 hours at the most.

He also showed me a nice .45 ACP he scored ! I like it very much.

Also, I love the new exhaust note from them....just loud enough to make you look and say Ewww....nice !

I set my rear Sway in the middle setting....we'll see if I need to go stiffer ???

Thanks again Pat....your a very cool dude....I wish you the best on your new job adventures. Just remember on thing....in order to have fun & play hard....you have to work hard ! ( which you have been doing ! ) Keep up the hard work my friend....it will pay off in due time.....As I am an Old Grassdhopper Ninja....Old & Wise am I !
