Take it from someone who spent far too many years buckling to pressure to compensate for management's shortcomings - don't let 'em do it to you. At the end of the day all you get from that is majorly burned out and pissed off.

Now go enjoy your birthday; you deserve it!

Had the day off and decided to bite the bullet, upgrade my primary home computer from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Turned out to be pretty much a non-event. I'm liking the Metro interface.

I removed a clear plastic by the bottom edge of each door, I heard it's there to protect from stuff, did anyone else remove it also?

Amazing.







Lotus isn't bankrupt yet.

900cc TVS is cool too.

Yay~ my friend is officially divorced!

I'm pretty sure some of you guys are thinking "WTF?", but some of you know the background story. He got really good lawyer and got the way he wanted.

As for mid-life crisis, he's planning to buy new car. I tried to convince him to buy FR-S/BRZ... but I think, he's set on bimmer... which still is a nice car
