Got the apple TV up and running, sweet freaking action. Can control and play to it from both phones, the iPad, and both computers. Just wish we had good enough internet to use it to pull videos off the web too.

Yay! Broke my Toyota. New axle is in on the left, but the car does not move in drive. Speedo goes up.... With the engine off and in drive, I can push the car.

Not in the past 18 years.
Ran coast to coast for 16 years though. Spent a lot of time in Federal Way WA. as we had a terminal there at the old Evergreen truck stop.( think it's a Flying J now)
Went to CA. 4 years ago to haul my brother back east but as a rule i try to stay east of the Mississippi now.

I miss my thunderbolt, but this thing is pretty damn cool and insanely fast
David, sorry for you're potential loss but sometimes it really is for the best.
All you can do is be there for your wife and kids

Just got the Turbo back after a month of mods.
hehe, this thing is awesome.
The new headers and muffler make the turbo spin up 800 to 1000 rpm quicker.
The 33mm and 23mm torsion bars with the new Von shocks has transformed the
good grip to awesome.
Also ran some braided lines to the brakes.
The combo of changes makes a big change to the car.
Oh and more top end power.
hehe

Now to spend the rest of the day cleaning it.

Vash, stop cleaning and drive more. Then you will have more to clean.

Morning guys.


Hang in there, David.

It's tough to have miss someone.

Well, my AC/DC 2 CD greatest hits collection came. I see why it was so cheap...

Most of the text (not the song titles on the box) are written in Russian. Or at least I think it is Russian. Maybe Greek. But the songs play in English and iTunes imported them with English titles. Windows Media Player did not get the right info though.

Whatever. All that matters is I have AC/DC on my iPod now.

I was actually done with finals yesterday but a friend needed some tutoring since he missed a lot of class with illness or something (he is actually a very smart guy so no being lazy stuff going on). He paid me nicely too so I stayed an extra day. Nice guy.

No one wants to comment on the Russian text on the CD? Ordered through Amazon from some place in New York apparently. CD was called "Hells Hits".
