When you make your way out this way again we should meet up, maybe Acey would come too.

speaking of Adrian;
Is that your old car at the Kia dealer?

I didn't have time to stop and look...

it looked to have a carbon fiber hood - which I think Adrian bought off of Tjay - but I can't recall if it was put on your old car...

if you played your cards right, maybe you can get it back, and be ahead?

I can understand you being sick of the civic, I need to be able to have fun with my car(s)...

if it were a matter of your health, or something like that, I'd totally put up prayer for you... but dude, this is something you have to go to him about.

even though the subject matter is very important to me, I will generally keep it 'P.C.' and not talk about my faith in a public forum - so I'll leave it there...

what's going on today Mark?
(I'm just about to head out to meet up with my cousin's)

man I spent the afternoon with my (2nd) cousin's and their mom...
had turkey 'dinner' at 1pm, then went out to ghost lake where a boat (with a recent engine swap, was brought out for an inaugural spin...
freaked me out for a bit there...
not even five minutes in, it stopped dead in it's tracks...
and me and the fourth guy (who towed it to the lake) were doing paddle duty till my cousin figured it out, and got it started again...
he's working out the bugs, then selling it.

I actually only got home a couple minutes ago ~ otherwise I would have called you.

I wouldn't have a clue...
it's one of the caveats from doing all your own maintenance work...

couple hundred sounds terrible... then again, I've already made it known that I am clueless here...
