Gotta JDM!!




Ended up purchasing the MP4S last night, didn't realize there was the Costco discount going on - ended up being the same price as my previous tires :o I'll give the Advan a try next year when these wear out!

Get a set where the steel belts are hanging out. They make a cool noise going down the road.

By your 30s you're old enough that you know what you want out of life but still young enough to enjoy it. I mean sure I can't go out on benders ever single night but I don't care for that anymore anyway. I mean if it's a bunch of us and it's an occasion maybe... "I'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was..." I'm old enough now though I can afford to do actual things too instead of just getting wrecked. I'm in San Diego right now on a long weekend. Last night we went to a dualing piano bar. Today we are going to seaworld. It's not even the actual weekend yet! Long story short is 30s > 20s in like 9 different ways and only worse in that you don't recover as fast. The wisdom makes up for it though anyway.

I'm sure I already bother the neighbors enough when I start my car in the AM, don't want to pester them more!
