Nope, cleaned the floors and bathrooms, gave myself a haircut and then shaved. Going to make myself a double stack bubba burger and watch TV.
I'm a good boy

I might wash the TL and S2000 also, but it looks like rain.
Nice. Well, it's not horrid to have an evening to yourself, madeofmineralsstar143.

Just finished eating. Had marinated some shank a la Montreal steak spice...threw a couple of lobster tails and sliced zucchini on the grill...dinner.

Playing with Little Cha at the moment.

I often wonder if your wife knows what "playing with little Cha" meant before your son was born.

Sounds like a great dinner, man...
packaged sushi and some movies for me tonight.
Saw spiderman last night, pretty good!

The Electro character could've been better...but, overall, I enjoyed it. Kinda liked it more than the first one with Garfield et al.

Prior to Little Cha being born, there was no phrase of "playing with Little Cha".






The phrase was, "playing with the Devastator".

Boasting, huh? Just got off phone with your wife and she was telling me that whenever you'd say that, her and her girlfriends would snicker and be like "more like he's playing with bean crusher".

I didn't hate Spiderman 2...not the best but it was entertaining, we thought.

Last night we started Planet of the Apes from 2011, until we realized we saw it

Then we watched Sabotage with Shortneighbor...not bad, about the most gory shooting movie I've seen in a while. They must have hired some serious blood spatter experts to consult on that...Plot was a little weak, but overall it was entertaining. Acting was slightly unpredictable which I liked...

Sabotage was the 2nd worst movie ever. That fucking guy should just quit. What a fucking imbecile. You have an all-star cast, great character development, and what do you do? Fucking write drivel and film it on what looks like a $10 budget. Dumb asshole. Even End of Watch was on the edge of drivel. Fuck you David Ayer. You think you're the white singleton, at least singleton made decent movies, a believable plot and made it to the big screen. Dumb asshole.

I mean fucking seriously.. the premise is the cartel is after them for a missing $10 million dollars. They fucking burned over 100M dollars, but the cartel is angry that they took 10 million.. and how the fuck would they know money is missing when they burned it up.

Give me a fucking break.. the fucking gore just made this movie more laughable.

Ah...we watched "The Artist". The silent movie from 2011 that won some Oscars. Pretty good.

The start didn't at first draw me either. Gotta be patient. Stop being so gwai-lo...only gwai-los are impatient and unwilling to wait for the big reward...they are all about instant gratifications.




Was that wacist?

rockstar, how did you install the spark plug seals?

I couldnt get them to seat correctly..one end is higher than the other, i can use a little shimmy to run across the seal and then tap in, but it still came out wrong.
I just ordered six more. hope I dont fuck up the new ones.

oof, well, that was my biggest waste of fkng time, bro...I want to say, I hope you paid attention to which way the seals should face based on your removal of the old ones...then you must use a small screwdriver and your finger and set the valve cover down in place, and manually put the tight edge of the seal over the sharp spark hole and slide it down, then you can torque down from center out in a 3 stage process.

Fkng sucked.

no, have some work to finish up at the office.
we're hitting a slow period, so as soon as i turn in my project, its likely i wont have another and might take a few days off plus this long weekend.


pending on parts arrival....
thats the tough part...
even if I opt for 2 day shipping, the parts are located all around the country and some times take a week to be delivered.

I also have to figure out the front mount and what Im going to do.
my buddy, evil virus took it to a shop to see if they can have better luck on extracting the bolt.

Femme nu? Rock Za? You fuckas must be broke. Pretty fucking tame compared to FL. I used to love going to the dump called Exotics.. Once in a while some squid / coastie / marine would wander in and get tossed out unconscious. Half the girls had csection scars, some looked like they just gave birth.. one girl gave me a hickey that didn't go away for a week. lol.. fucking awesome.

Maybe not the experience you guys were looking for, but we were always fucking entertained at Exotics and the girls were friendly, but you need to know how to operate in there though (otherwise you got your shit tossed by a jealous bf watching.. lol). It's probably not the same anymore since they closed down pipes. Tons of mokes would pile in Exotics from pipeline.

Femme nu is my joint. Some filipina and hapa pololo girls have some attitude there but there are some nice girls who love to just chill and chat. I met a girl who's from Austin. We chatted for a while, she gave my boy a free dance (bachelor party). Then one of the guys in our group started getting creepy so I had to set him straight.

You guys should hit up a korean hostess bar before you leave.

i havent checked, but I guarantee my two local acura dealerships dont have the spark plug seals..
in this big ass city, we only have two acura dealerships....

they never have anything obscure like that.
they probably have them in the parts bin for the techs, but wont give me or sell me any.

Justin, I pressed the seals in with my fingers just a little bit, and then tapped them in with a socket.

However, I'm actually replacing some seals on my bike and I read somewhere to use ThreeBond 1104 or equivalent. Finger paint some around the outside of the seal so that it slides in.

http://www.magicracing.com/ThreeBond...1104_p_84.html

Majofo, do you object to this technique? Seems pretty legit since the stuff dries into a synthetic rubber.

Justin, I bought my felpro kits from advance auto.
Waste of the rest of the seals in the kit but with their constant 20% off discount codes, it was worth the $30 at a time not to waste any time searching or waiting.

Vlad knows what he's talking about...when I finally DID put them on right, they went on so easily. I couldn't understand why they wouldn't seat...then I realized I had them in upside down. AND torqued down and at that point, bam, the sharp edge of the tube had cut them all.
