Yes, the only reason I am taking it over 2.0 is because there is probably piston damage and it will need to go to a machine shop. Cheaper and easier to overbore it. Then again I have no idea what is wrong with it as it hasn't been opened yet.

Hmmm, maybe my motor won't be pulled. What are the chances I blew a headgasket and nuked a piston/ring at the same exact moment in time? Cause after tonight I am 100% sure the headgasket definately went, lol.

Any good dealers you guys recommend around here?

The Cosmosonics ( Former members of the Science Fiction Idols )

BTW... you ever hear of any local metal / progressive rock bands looking for a drummer with both recording and gigging experience, let me know. I can play almost anything... just not the death metal stuff... toooo fast for me.

Kinda like a mix of 70's glam rock ( Kiss, Bowie, T-rex ) and 80's rock with some ramones thrown in for good measure.

The guys won a few of the local contests before, and they have been on WDVE's Coffee house a few times.

They used to play out a bit with The Motorpsychos, 4 Barrel Ghost, and the Cheats alot.

I saw 3 red cobalt SS/SC's in Greensburg today. All on route 30. I pretty sure they were all different ones.

there's soo many running around now, we need to start tagging them and keep a transponder on all so we can keep tabs.

I had someone in a NA/SS cut me off ( was in dad's ALtima ) and then not even use a turn signal when he/she pulled off into a plaza ( wal-mart ). It was RED with the SC Wing on the back.

Kids..............


I got the itch to trade mine so bad after going to the car show and inhaling all that "new car smell"

Owe WAY too much and have too many miles to think about it.

How about I got pulled over today for failing to stop for a yeild sign......WTF?

I got on 119 from 70, was moving pretty good at first, saw a car hauling ass in the left lane so I slowed down to about 68/70-ish and got in the right lane. Car FLIES past me, going every bit of 85 - twas an unmarked statey. SLAMS on his brakes pulls in behind me and follows me. I figured if he wanted me for 5 over he can have me for 5 over. He finally passed me by the Sony plant, was a good ways in front of me, we passed some dumb bitch who put her SUV in a ditch he just drives past, head down the hill where it switches to 55, he slows down AGAIN to get behind me, I downshifted until I was at about 57, set the cruise. I seriously thought he was going to rear-end me he was so close. Tailgates me until the Scottdale/Mt. Pleasant exit where I got off, he gets in the left lane first car in line as the light turns red, I go right to my grandparents' house. Slowed way down for the ramp, looked, nothing coming, so I went through at about 20-25 mph. He peels out, makes the right from the left/straight lane, puts the light on his car and pulls me over.

He comes up, gets the license, registration, and insurance. Asks if I knew why he pulled me over, I said no. He's like "First off, it's time to curb the attitude problem. You came off that ramp and didn't even think about stopping, blew right through the intersection. That's how you punks get into accidents." I said I slowed down to a safe speed, checked for traffic and proceeded to yeild, just like the sign said. He proceeds to tell me that "yeild" means you have to come to a full stop and wait for all traffic to clear first. At this point I'm making a short list of people to call for bail money cause I just can't fight the urge to be a smartass. "Oh really? So this means that every time I'm entering a major highway from an on-ramp I should bring my vehicle to a full and complete stop before proceeding onto the roadway? Good to know." He didn't say anything, walks back to his car. Sits there for like 5 minutes, comes back and is like "Consider yourself lucky, I'm going to let you go with a warning this time but you need to keep your car and your attitude in check and show some respect the next time an officer pulls you over." Almost had to bite my tongue off to keep from giving a smart ass reply to the whole "respect" thing.

Good stuff Alicia. Its getting toward the end of the month for quota time i guess. Dont understand the whole punk comment. Sounds to me like he was on a bit of a power trip. In other news i found out the other day while changing my oil that i am 4 months past due for my inspection/emissions. Expired in Sept 06.
