I'll start taking pictures of his other cars as he drives them to work. Every few days is a different car.

Haha I'm pretty sure I would be first to jump in on that offer.

Also, at our christmas parties we give away some small prizes and one of them is you get to drive around his newer Ferrari. I was REALLY hoping I would get that one but I haven't the past 2 years . He lets the winner drive it hard on the freeways.

Our company is an engineering firm that designs the HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and medical gas systems for hospitals. Everything above the ceiling and behind the walls. I do the mechanical portion of it and size and select all the HVAC equipment. We don't install anything, just put it on paper and then later make it everything was installed correctly and works. That is what we do in a nutshell.

I've seen like 2 episodes of that show. I haven't driven by the garage ever, its kind of on the other side of Dallas that I never go to and about 25 minutes away. If I was more into the show I would definitely stop by. Maybe I'll watch some more episodes and make the trek over some day.

Every now and then they'll do a week or so of free radio. I listen to it when it's free but there's no way I'd pay money for it.

That's my style too. The sound quality sucks.

It's free from 8/27 to 9/9. Too bad I'm not taking my car on my Labor Day weekend road trip.

lol I meant when I get my car, limited on time when I'm in school. I was considering buying it for the acura but then I got 2 months free from a deal/trial (my trial is over now but here is a link).

Yeah and if you click my link up there you can sign up for a two month free trial.. No credit card required and it will shut off automatically and not auto-renew.

Anyone who wants to wait it out to get more of the two month trial don't wait it out, that deal has been posted since like 4/16... it could go down at any time.

Hey guys,

i regret to say this but apparently Professor has passed away, a little over a month ago now. I know he was here in our section a decent amount so i figure i should post this here. there is a thread currently in ramblings regarding this. https://acurazine.com/forums/ramblings-12/rip-professor-aka-anthony-895090/

Professor
