Hail sucks. There was some pretty big storms on your route back yesterday. My gf was going from Moline to Columbia MO, and got really lucky that she stayed out of most of the storms.

As for the AutoX, I am considering going, but it all depends if i can get off work. Do you knwo what the entry fee is by chance?

 

$35 for non-SCCA members, $25 for members. There is a $5 late fee if you show up late as well. It's on a Sunday- you have to work? That would suck, it's been a long time since I had a job that I had to work Sundays- must be retail or something your doing. Hope to see you there. You can check out Des Moines Valley Region of SCCA online and has the schedule and costs, locations, etc... I used to be big into it 3 years ago but had to take a hiatus b/c I got rid of my Subaru WRX for money reasons. My replacement 1990 BMW 325i would have been fun but I was afraid of braking a 19 yr old car that was my daily driver.

 

i saw driving on wilson heading towards edgewood, a 2 toned red and white crappy paint job with a red high rise cobalt,
this was in cedar rapids btw,

who the hell are you

 

I actually work second shift weekends at a Wal-Mart Distribution Center. Not so much retail as it is logistics, but pretty close sometimes. It pays enough to make it worth working weekends though. I will have to check it out though.

 

i work at a retail walmart, you still have your soul at the DC?

 

Hahaha, hell yeah! You guys at the stores are the ones getting the bad side of Walmart. I get to do whatever the hell I want as long as I get my job done and pull a 95% every night, AND get paid nearly $25 an hour. Nothing like working 3 days, having 4 off, getting full benefits, and not having to do ****.

 

i feel suicidle at times, im not aloud to work in sporting goods any more, and my manager has a a nice mustache its all lined up and ****, SHE manages bakery deli dairy and produce, so jellous

 

Yeah, the store is how WM gets all be bad raps about being a horrible employer. I honestly couldn't be a whole lot happier (of course I am never perfectly content. I mean, we have cookouts about once a month, and get prizes and gifts on occasion. Its pretty fantastic really, lol. I can get away with so much too...

 

I've seen him in the Anamosa area also, don't think he's on here though. Was it still dirty as hell? I don't think he washes it either..

 

they dont do that here, there bitchen that im cutting a day for school, when me and a guy work the same shift once a week
yes thats him, i wanted to hit him wiht he minivan i was driving

 

i work at a Cabelas...basically in a distribution center, but going back to the retail side soon....DC wasnt for me

 

It definitely isn't for everyone. It gets hard, especially in this heat. It gets up to about 120* on a normal summer day.

 

120?? in the midwest?? Are you counting the heat index??


All I know is this is the coldest place I've ever been. I don't care what people say, hell does freeze

 

you thin blooded whinny bitch, i used to shovel snow in my boxers

 

Umm, no, I am serious. This is in a big building with little ventilation. No heat index included.

 

whew.... good way to keep those extra pounds off.... lol


Happens a lot out here, its a scary sight going through the neighborhood...

 

Yeah, its excellent exercise really. I get about 8 hours a day of strenuous aerobic exercise.

 

meanwhile I have to sit in a cold dark room for 8 hours, I've gained about 25 lbs in the last 2 years...

 

Ouch. I haven't lost any weight, and have actually gained about 10 lbs, but I m sure its muscle.

 

i lost 25 pounds in the last 3 months, and gained 15 pound in less then a week back in ia

 

nuthin like home cookin'

 

Mmmmm home cookin is the best.

Btw, im effin bored.

 

hahaha..... yeah me too, just sitting hear waiting on a long test to finish

 

Yeah, I am waiting to head to class for the most boring time of my life.

Nothing like going through a CNA class when I have been an EMT for 4 years.

 

They should just let you take the exam only and if you pass you get your cert...
