Calgary - random talk thread
I can't wait for this weekend. Projekt and I are heading to Fargo for the weekend for a change of night life scenery and meeting up with some guys on here around that area. Then picking up my built motor on the way back

really?
Bummer.
You going to be on-site then?
Jayson isn't able to make it either.
Speaking of FB, Mark, last night I caught a glimpse of what you meant for reason to not be on FB...
FB has this reccomended friends list based on interestes, or commmon friends...
I saw ALOT of sexually explicit crap, because one friend in certain seemed to "friend" some rather bad sites...
I think something changed on FB, I didn't used to see all these reccomendations ~ I tried to turn them off, but couldn't find the setting.

facebook is the route of all evil man.... i will always believe this.... it makes no difference if your good or not.... sooner then later it will bite all people in the ass...... i dont mind if ella has fb coz i trust her completely..... but i know if i had fb that things would be different.... she uses it to keep in touch with relatives in the phills....
look this is why i took this stance on it.... any of you remember marcia? well we would get into countless fights because she thought i was using fb to cheat on her..... the funny things were 1 i didnt have a facebook account. 2 i wasnt even cheating on her..... needless to say the fighting got old and i grew tired of hearing about facebook.....at that time i realized real quick that facebook was evil.... then i have several friends not mentioning names but they used facebook to get in touch with old high school mates.... eventually one thing led to another..... they started to mess around with other women, meanwhile the girlfriends or wives were at home with the kids..... sorry but that dont sit right with me...
top things off you would think this might be a minor deal but it truely isnt.... my coworkers use facebook to play online games..... well after several fights and threats of quiting, my boss has realized what it was doing to them.... 1 production went down. 2 they were always playing games and not helping me do the work. 3 it coz a wedge between me and them forever.... they are some of my closest friends.... til this day me and jess still fight alot.... he still plays online alot.... its so bad he left me to get another company to design this latest wrap i have on my car... needless to say i am happy but yet i am lil disappointed because i know jess could have done a way better job in translating what was in my mind.... we as a company can create and achieve the most absolute insane products if we put our minds to it.... but when your playing a freaking game all day we achieve nothing.... besides this affecting me work wise, this has effected my pay.... i havent had a raise in over 5 yrs.... we have yet to recover the early years when those 2 idiots were so involved in those damn games.... in which it hurt our customer base and our productivity.... in return it meant less money flowing through our shop... which lead to no raises.... now i am struggling to keep afloat....
you tell me why i need facebook? ok i agree i would like to know whats happening in GMToC..... i am thankful some of you tell me whats happening.... in reality it is a can of worms i wish to never open considering i just got my life back together and starting to achieve my goals....

Regardless how good of a cop I am that will never change the stereotype of cops. Look at Jons comment "I hate cops". Not I hate this one cop that's always a dick to me. But stuff like that will never change. And I'm prepared for that. I get that at my job now haha.

Question:
Why is it so hard to find spark plugs in Calgary?
Ive checked: Canadian tire, napa, and auto value.
None of them seem to have the spark plugs for my build!
NGK LFR6A-11 in case you were wondering...

i just thought a new game we could play.... i should take a whole bunch of photos of the shop...... then i would ask you all to make 2 guesses on how many car parts i have scattered in the shop..... the person who guesses correct gets a free job done to their car lol..... so if the person won the contest he or she could have their car done the way they wanted..... lol it could be dash trims, rock guard, stripes lol all of the above..... it would be a classic game of finding waldo..... lol....
look for interchange;
taking into account that most every plug "type" is made by six manufacturers, there are literally thousands of plug out there...
around here I'd suspect you see who carry's which brand then do some homework to see interchange, and take it from there...
for a short while parts source carried probably thirty or so ngk's
well, I stepped up my game as a Trifecta dealer today...
I now have a second cable that I can lend out.
Apparently for a short while there was a second Trifecta dealer in town here, his name is Tom;
He on occasion poped in here ages ago;
he used to have a 2009 SS;
black with red interior, tinted glass iirc...
Now has a 'Vette.
I don't plan on going anywhere folks!
