Well, they're all kinda chillin' too. I'm still a newbie here so playing pranks on them wouldn't go over so well, LOL. Wait a few more months and that will be a different story

My official title is "Web Production Specialist/Analyst." I'm basically a ASP.NET programmer... all intranet applications for the 4-H dept. It's really a lot more fun then it sounds, lol!

wow nice. i do almost everything except asp.net... pretty good job market for that, i should read up on it.

intranets are always more fun than internet apps, you get so much more freedom. i envy you.

Wow...very cool Amanda! Tech savy girls are not super common so I gotta give you some props
Now I know how you get money for all those nice mods

I'm a software engineer and I guess my official title is "Product Development Specialist"
I work at a tax software company and our main product is used by professional preparers to electronically file tax returns. We also have a non-pro website called Taxbrain.com. Check it out if you have some time.
I do a lot of dialog based C++ programming of utilities for Windows. And also program a lot in our proprietary scripting language in order to automate the tax calculations for our state packages like Cali, NY, and some others.

I might be working on some asp .net stuff this summer, so maybe I'll hit you up!
Are you using VB or C#?

All my apps are VB. I'd like to learn C# eventually though.

hey, Virtualbong, I feel you on the reports thing. I do that as well. I wish I didn't though because everyday they want a new report created and it gets pretty old, lol! But I can't complain, it gives me something to do.

Your jobs still sound cool guys. Every job has stuff that sucks to do! I gotta do print layout. It sucks...it's super repetitive and I think a well trained monkey would be able to do it.

Sorry about the thread jack Amanda....I'll hit you up sometime on PM to talk about the nerdy computer stuff

Back on topic....Have you decided on which rims you want?
Based on your last pics I really like the vadors myself.

Yeah it definitely gives me something to do when I have reports to write, but I'm the backup guy, so the main report writer gets most of the work while I support some applications as well as writing some reports. Good mix of both I guess, but its sooooooooo slow right now since I finished my last report last Friday...

Honestly though, I would like to move out of the technical side someday and go on to more of the business side. We'll see what my future holds...

J/K, LOL. Definitely looks better without the bra and you should of considered a paint protection clear bra instead. I think that's what I'm going to go with since I hate paint chips and crap like that to ruin my front end. My black teg doesn't shine as bright anymore from the front.

Yeah, you don't know how much I really want to ditch it at times... but, I've only had it since August. Even though I bought it myself, my dad would kill me if I got rid of it already! If it keeps giving me strange problems though (took 4 tries to start the other day, my key got stuck in the ignition today... and yes, it was in park!), I'm getting rid of it. CG AT/Non-Navi here I come??? haha

I think they only come in hyperblack and black... I'm going with hyperblack unless they make gunmetal.

Nope, that's the only "downside." I was hoping for gunmetal 5 spoke wheels with polished lip, but I came across these Vadors and I really really like them. Not only do they go well with my white accord, but they will also go well with, hmm let's say a CG TSX if I ever decide to get one, lol.


and what happened to the cute pic of you (?) in your avatar, haha?!

hyperblack, not black. there is a difference, lol... for example

Hyperblack wheels:



Black:


Different brands have different colors for 'hyperblack.' For Exel wheels, their version of hyperblack is near a gunmetal color but with more shine. For Nakayama, their hyperblack is more of a shiny silver, but not quite chrome.

Hey Amanda....will they let you take off your front license plate where you live....or will you get pulled?

I think you should take that off if you could.
