My BS of the day:

Just got my bonus check from work today and....... I am planning the twincharge build on New Years weekend. I have half day friday, saturday, sunday, and monday off.. Only thing I need is to get my charge pipes fitted and welded up and the exhaust put on and welded up!

I am excited! This should finally be done for the beginning of 2011! Way to ring in the new year!

My BS of the day:

I got my office to do "Beards for Bucks"

Something I created (with two others) that starts on a certain day (near the end of the year) and is basically a beard growing contest. Whoever participates in the contest with start growing their beard and if they have to cut it for any reason they have to pay 10$ to the pot. At the end whichever person can hold off shaving will pick which charity they want to pot money (no jokes ) to go to.

I am trying to get the company to do it, which is probably 350 or more men (430+ total)... but I have to get the approval from the big boss that is in our Lenexa (home) Kansas office.

Since its around the holiday, I always like to try to helpp out as much as possible.

For 800 a month you can rent a house down here. I work at DM also (CATM Instructor) Check the major communities like Rita Ranch, and Rancho Sahuarita. There are many places up for rent now.

As for apartments, I don't know much about them, but just look at the crime rates before you move into a certain area. There are some bad sections in Tucson.

Also we have some decent meets down here in Tucson.
