he doesn't have enough posts to send or recieve PMs. Better exchange phone numbers or something on the board. I'm not even good at rock band I just like banging on the drums whenever I'm at my friends place.

It doesnt matter phantom - if you wanted to car pool, I may just ride with you actually depending on how long you plan on staying.

Otherwise we can give you josh's address (or directions). Either way, let us know and someone should be able to help out. As for parking, it's not too big of an issue now. Josh lives in condos, and has an underground garage. There was some discrepancies about where people could park in the garage, and Jermaine's car got towed.

So now we know that we can only get 2 cars in the garage and the rest have to park on the street.

Carpooling works fine for me I can stay as long as you like I have no other plans or places to be Saturday. I can meet you at the library say about 12:00.

Since I literally live like 5 houses down from the library, how about you just give me a call once your in the area, and you can stop by my place and we can figure things out from there.

BTW - you have GPS in yours? Josh will attest that I am directionally retarded. I don't go anywhere without it..lol I have a portable GPS on my xmas list so I can go places in my truck too

to access facebook, i go to terminal and tehn enter "ping facebook.com"
it gives me the ip address i think, and when i enter it in, i get to the site without it saying facebook, the only problem is that i cant login in because something changes.. any ideas on what to do?

Had it advertised for book value, not a single call. Dropped the price by a grand, sold it in a week. So, I sold it for a grand back of book, which is pretty much where everyone is selling their cars right now.

That's prolly why your mom hasn't sold it out from under you yet.

Seriously, how is it that you are always grounded or worried about getting your car taken away? WTF are you (or aren't you) doing?

Generally I would come on here with some lame ass excuse as to why I didn't make it. I actually didn't make it to work work since i found out that my best man's dad went to the hospital. He's always been kind of a wreck, but he's been on multiple medications and it sounds like recently things haven't been working so well together.

I was at Mercy just kind of hanging out. I can completely understand what he is going through (with wanting to go home and get out of the hospital) and his family wanting him to stay and make sure everything is fine - since it is him wanting to go home and the hospital wanting him to stay.

Kind of one of those catch 22 situations. He is in the hospital because his own health is not up to par, yet at the same time his brother just dies last week. His funeral is tomorrow and he is under a lot of pressure to get things taken care of. I am going to take tomorrow off of work to help him and his son get whatever they need taken care of though.

Not that it's the end of the world or anything, but I'm not sure that i will be on here for a few days until things get all taken care of. Happy Thanksgiing to all, and hopefully everyone is able to be with their loved ones. TTYL - Brian

Last week someone thought they heard on the radio that Luke died, and nobody bothered to check - so I got like 40 calls saying that luke died last Saturday. I called him and it turned out he was at work.

So how did things go anyways this weekend?

My friend might be getting a 2002 Acura CL Type-S auto, black on black.

His bro got hit in his sebring and its totaled so his dad might give him his 99 G20 Infiniti and get my friend the 02 Acura.

Neither of my friends brothers know how to take care of cars so thats why he'd give my friend the acura.

So i told him "you gotta join the acura forum then!" haha

So, for this weekend, Matt, Jermaine and I just hung out, made burgers, caught the grill on fire, bought pizza, watched movies, played video games, drank beer (I was severely hung-over) and just generally did manly things.

So let's go down the man-day-checklist
1. Beer - check
2. Pizza - check
3. Burgers - check
4. Fire - check
5. Chips - check
6. Video games - check
7. Movies that have lots of stuff blowing up - check, check
8. Grill - check
9. Wings - check
10. Playing with cars - check

Looks like we hit all the right areas and got everything accomplished for a man-day. Too bad you panzies couldn't make it, it was a good time and we made quite a mess.

Man, you guys can really take something to the next level...

Wake up as in, next morning. Leave the mess for the night and work on it later. As for poopy-pants, I don't know where that comes from, but I still think it is funny as hell.

This is random, but im sitting here at work, and I over hear my friend talking to some guy. My friend says "I'm thinking about taking those 3 days so we get that huge week n a half chunk off" (talking about linking christmas and newyears holidays... The guy's response was "What in the heck would you do over that time?" basically saying why would you want almost 2 weeks off work, there would be nothing to do.

I feel bad for him.

I guess its the whole "live to work" vs "work to live" thing.



Anyways, hope you all have a good thanksgiving. I leave today for San Diego. I so excited I can barely care about getting work done (but luckily I'm mostly wrapped up before the holiday anyways).
