It was a 2 door little coupe...it was debadged so I have no idea. It sounded nice, didn't sound boosted and no, I would have beaten the shit out of him because I watched him give it all it had when he saw an opening and he took off, and I was very confident I was much much faster. It made a ton of noise and barely took off.

So, he's lucky I decided not to drive like a dick. Not me.

Remember, I'm not stock...I bought the car that dyno'd 303hp with the zdx etc...it's not like I have a big block or a turbo, but it's noticeable over my base TL. The car moves...and it's not just cause it's my car...even Andy G...with his 634HP TL was impressed with this car...he said he had done all the modding and cams etc on his last car and couldn't believe that with basic bolt ons...blue kept up...he said it had to be a factory freak because it was fast out of the box.

Don't really expect you to believe me...

I don't NEED to be faster. But I was. Trust me, I would have waxed that ass hard.

Leaving (Wh)orlando and there was this lady bag tosser loading shit on the plane at the next gate.

She really seemed to know how to handle some swollen bags... Plus she had her own kneepads.

Almost made me want to stay longer.

The airport bar is the lowest bar... Easiest to hit!


Actually, I did the most damage at a tap room right before the airport that came highly recommended. Got an excellent beer from down your way, J: Funky Buddha Brewing Co, Muy Bonita.

It was a party in my mouth.

Was it on your plate, or on the grass?

Jasmine is aight, but Mulan is more my cup of cha.

Gator was just cruising around in the little swamp ditch next to the road. Maybe 6-footer?

Would have made a nice belt!

We had a quarterly meeting yesterday...lunch half was a mystery thingy where you have actors and you have to solve a crime. Pretty damn fun!

Make your work meetings in Ft Lauderdale next time, Joe. I would have met you for a beer.

Just realized the Aventador I was drooling over at the Pearl Jam Miami concert last week was actually a lp750-4. Fuck me...what a gorgeous ride.

I beat it too.

I took a little nap this afternoon and woke up sweating. AC was running but was pushing out hot air.

Ended up being a vaporized connector at the compressor for the startup cap. I had this problem once before and called "an AC guy" who sort of halfassed a fix.

This time I halfassed it myself and saved the service call.

Aaaannnnndddd... I remembered to throw the breaker *before* I started poking around the 220 lines. So I can be taught!

Quick herro to the ramblers in here...Nice day so far. Took Little Cha out for a bike ride (he's riding on the back in Thule kid-seat) that he seemed to really enjoy.

Going to chug some beer and throw some lemongrass chicken and shrimp on the BBQ soon.

Maybe watch some playoff hockey later.
