and girls complain about guys not listening.
Okay I my fiancee came up for Easter dinner yesterday. the way she came up is 68 North to 33 West. Which is okay but there's 2 things #1. Bellefontaine cut their city budget big time so a lot of crime going down since they cut cops #2. A lot of stop lights.
so i told her go 235 South bound to I-70 east. then exit at exit 72.(not hard). I said don't go on 41 South bound(it's a mile or 2 shorter but the cops in this town are absolute d!cks) so what does she do. she turns on 41 south bound from 235. got a speeding ticket. calls me. 52 mph in a 35. now she only has 45 bucks in her checking account. if you guys know anything about speeding tickets their expensive. so now I gotta loan her like 100 bucks. I told her she's lucky she wasn't going about 3 mph faster they would have got her for reckless operation.(20 mph over the speed limit the breaking point in Ohio) then you have to by state law appear in front of a judge. more B.S. and more points.
i've never got a speeding ticket yet(knock on wood). but I know all the cops in the area because i'm a firefighter. they usually just say "slow it down" or "you know you should go a little slower Derek."once I was clocked doing 70 in a 35 mph by the chief of Police he lives by my grandmothers. I saw him the next day I saw him he's said "Derek you were going about 35 over the speed limit" i said "oh i was i'm sorry" he said "yeah, just next time watch your speed limit on the east side of town okay man." I said "yeah, no problem man. thanks. have a nice day, officer."
he waved. i waved back at him and that was it basically.

But my buddy got owned with the whole "You don't listen to me."
She tells him, well, "You don't listen to me."
He says, "Yes, I do."
She says, "Oh yeah, what did I just say."
He says, "Uh ... ."
Classic. He got owned big time. I everytime I remind him of that moment.

That, is possibly the most inteligent sort of sentence I have ever read- thanks for the insight.

yeah she got hammer 250 bucks plus points on her lisence.
in the state of Ohio if you get busted 2 times within a year for speeding the 2nd time they double the ticket.
to think in 6 months she's getting an 00 Odyssey EX(which is atleast double the power she has now). I'm probably gonna take her old ride(it's like a mid 90 to late 90's Ford Contour)(4 popper). she's drives fast. even in my Solo2 car(89 CRX si) she can smoke the tires EASY. plus she usually drives within 3-4 seconds of me.then her dad insanely fast with the CRX (he's a good 5 seconds ahead of me). once she beat me and I never heard the end of that for a week. . The thing is I keep on telling her if she's gotta "stand on the gas" do it at the track. because for 12 bucks I can let her autocross all afternoon vs 250 for a ticket plus insurance goes up.

CIVIC TYPE R. it dynoed wheel hp before i rebuilt it this spring(which i punched it out and put those ported and polished head on it) I gutted most of the interior w/ driver it only weighs like 2300 lbs. put a full roll cage in it with movie camera bracket. but she'd said souping up import cars was gay, said import cars were slow. I said what about a S2000. she said it was slow. I said what about my car with a punched out B18C5 spoon motor (which would make it a B21C5 motor).(which i almost did but i priced a B21C5 spoon motor and about crapped ) so i just stroked the stock Si motor. she said she'd never have a 4-popper. no she went and got a 01 Chevy 1/2 ton 4x4 Z-71 ext cab LT that gets a incredible 16-17 mpg. I even think that C21C5 motor with a hellish cam and me standing on it would get better gas mileage than that POS. plus she gave WAAAAAY to much for it. 2 years ago she gave 20 grand for a truck with 45 k on it. yeah it was in nice shape. but damn 20 grand for a used 1/2 ton and about 1/3 of it's life is gone.

Dude i dont think there is one person that was on this board when you were dating sherri that didnt know her. Dont forget i have been here awhile, probably longer then you. As for the truck, she needed one. I doubt it even gets that kinda mileage with her in there and is 20 grand that bad? My mom sold our 01 Lariat F250 four door diesel with 60k on it for 28ish i wanna say and that thing had a rough life, pulled horses everywhere. Damn i am turning into Water, did anyone catch that rambling about nothing towards the end of my post :eek

Listening != memorizing every word you say.
