It went well, but the film crew didn't leave until 1:15 in the A.M. I was beginning to get irritated. Turns out that only one of the two women had a shot to film at our house and the other one had just come along for support. No matter, they were both still very good looking. The scene involved a late night argument between this woman and some male character in the kitchen; she was dressed in a nightie. There was a lot of screaming in Spanish and English. My wife speaks Spanish so as we're sitting in another room during the filming of the scene, she hears the female character should something in Spanish, turns to me and says, "Did she just say what I think she said?" Oh yes. Something along the lines of "What a pile of shit!" or the Spanish equivalent. (I asked the director and it will be subtitled.)

The director doesn't have a title yet but the film is intended for Sundance. I'll let the list know when it comes out and that way everyone can find out what my kitchen looks like!

As an added bonus, my 17 year old daughter, who has plans to enter acting, got to be an extra in some scenes shot the next day in town. At least now she has a pretty good idea about how these things progress: just like the Army. Hurry up and wait.

Navy. Worked really hard at picking up what I could in the 6 months I lived in Subic Bay. My local friends got a kick out of it when, after a few minutes of sneaky listening, I chimed in to blow unsuspecting minds. It's all gone now.

I have ran them for about 15k miles and they are grooved really bad. I thought the HC800 were bad on rotors but the XP8s are no bueno for the street. The rotors had a bunch of track days on them already when I got them from my buddy and were a temp fix when my old rotors were worn (75k miles, 45k with HC+800 pads)

Gotcha. Yeah, that's why I like Winmax. They perform great & help last rotors more than other pads. Now question is DBA t2 or other brand...
