One of the many things I love about my garage is it a 3 car oversize garage. I can open the huge El Camino doors all the way and not hit anything. I have 5 of the 8 foot dual lights so I can see real well.

I spent several hours out there today waxing the top side of the Elky.

The garage I have now is so narrow I have to have the windows down to get out of the Boxster or MB when I bring them in for service. Peggy, hahahahahaha I can back the bed into the joint but I only do that when I need to move something big like an engine. It works for Lanna but not much else

100% of the reason I was happy to move to this house was the garage. I saw the garage and I was happy. I assumed there was a kitchen, bedroom & bathroom attached to the garage. My wife saw the closet in the master bedroom which was about the size of my first apartment and she was happy. We did not care about the rest of the the house. It is just a house.

Arrogance Sid, pure and simple arrogance.

Every software company is guilty of pushing out patches or updates that fuch something up, somewhere on everyones PC. HP, Microsoft, Sun, Oracle, Cisco, and yes, Apple. Yet somehow, Apple seems to be the company that both the company and the cultists believe can do no wrong. It's the user's fault. Attenuation anyone?

Every fuchin time iTunes updates (and either my wife or I forget our rule or mindlessly pass over the "Do you want to updgrade - if so, come hither so I can pork you in the keister with a baseball bat" question, something always goes tits up. And I waste more time solving another issue.

I have spent more time fixing more Apple fubars in the 5 years i've owned an iPod and an iPhone than i have in years I've owned intel/microsoft based PC and devices.

Screw you Apple. You're a bunch of plastic zombie fucher douche holes.

From a design perspective, they're lovely and I respect them. From a performance and software perspective they can lick my pucker.

Charlotte used to be a great place, I was there several times a year for Mazda school. The last time I was there (3 years ago) it has turned into a trash can with curbs. Too bad it was a nice(ish) place

I, in 5 yrs of iTunes and iPhone ownership have had very few problems. I have had a MacBook pro for almost a year now and have way less issues with it than the windows POS I had before.

I have no problems with iTunes but I tried to turn off automatically check for updates and stuff like then always decline to update. All I have is an old iPod nano, though. There is no reason why the current iTunes will ever be insufficient or make the iPod not sync correctly. All the updates seem to be for stuff I do not have.

Some day I'd like to visit the south and see where my dad grew up. But not anytime soon.
