Can't believe I missed that opportunity.

Ahem.

I'd "bang her out" over the shower tiles that she doesn't like anytime.

Under the weather?

@Tcoat, you're correct about the uniform. His family heritage was deeply military. He showed me other candids of gatherings where his great uncle was flanked by uniformed officers, all immediate and extended family a couple generations deep.

I went to make a joke about comparing humfrz.com to google.com, and then I realized that it actually is a registered domain. Registered to a dude out of Puyallup, WA, and has been since November 1999. I didn't directly link the info since it has his full name, address, and phone (from 1999 anyway) in there, but its easy enough to find if you know where to look.

I'm genuinely impressed.

Random thought. 17x9 +63 5x114.3 TSW FORGED Interlagos would fit with adaptors. Bolt on 25mm adaptors make them +38, which is near perfect!!!!!!


Otherwise you are stuck with 17x8 +45 5x100.

Fun fact about my work. We have roughly 7600 employees. 7% have the last name Nguyen.

A classic example of how research that is too focused can mess with the results.

Ya, but you had those uniforms down ....... right down to almost the name rank and serial number .....

Besides, I had a head start, since we had a Model A Ford pickup truck parked in a barn, when I was growing up. Yep, I'd open the big sliding door and spend hours, "driving" all over the world........

crank....sputter sputter .. yen yen, huuuuuun ... yen, yen (double clutch, rev match) .......huuuuuuuuun ...... grinnnnnnd (oops, missed second gear)....

I'm (slowly) building a 05 Impreza wagon with STi internals for (now next) winter. Was supposed to finish it January haha. The wiring harnass was like hacked up the original owner though. We should be back on track now though.

Yes. I have tried two kinds. Eargasm ear plugs are my favorite. Terrible name though. I also tried EarPeace plugs, I did not like the sound.


They absolutely saved my life at the Eclipse Fest. You can talk and hear the music. You can hear highs and lows. I highly suggest them!


I get a ringing in my right ear... Possibly from being a PGII member all my life.

Pick any cheap Subaru. Winter beater selected. Problem solved. Best part, all knowledge and many parts are interchangeable with the twins.

Edit:. Also, don't use paint pens. Get some real touch up paint and micro brushes/toothpicks. Prepare for failure, have patience, and eventually you'll figure it out.
