Well, My insurance is $88. It actually went down about 20 bucks.
I'll have to keep an eye out for a clean silver TL prowling the streets of CR. Is the $88 per month and just for the TL or is that for all of your vehicles?

$88/mo, that's got to be nice. Mine was supposed to be $110/mo, but it's $160 this month, American Family seems to fluxuate a lot with me.

It's 88/month just for the car. I pay 62/month for the truck I believe.

Now that I've started driving my car a little bit, I think I can say that I should have put an a-spec kit on it a long time ago. Plus the cleared headlights are sweet - just a subtle little thing that nobody else in the world probaby notices but me.

$88 is a little high per month you should get a multi car discount. I only have my 07 TL-S and it is $73.50 a month but i pay for 6 months at a time so I get a discount but it is 441 when the bill is due. My record is pretty clean no accidents and one speeding ticket in 2004. Not sure what my deductable is I think it is $250 or $500.

Razzi not showing up was no surprise, I think I predicted that a month ago.

We went to B-dubs and watched the ALMS race on the smallest TV in the joint with no sound. But, we got some wings and hung out. A few peeps got to see the STi.

For some reason, when I see this, it just cracks me up. Especially since Razzi is the one that never shows up to anything...

That meet was fun I finally got to put some names and faces to the screen names and avatars. It was ages since I had been to BW3's my gums burned the rest of the day from those hot wings glad I didn't tempt fate and order Blazin. For those that werent there you missed out on a chick getting pissed at us for saving a parking spot it was funny and you had to be there.

The best part of that chick was that we sat at the table next to her! She kept glaring at me whenever I would look over!

I am usually pretty observant but I totally missed that. I was too far away from the car to know it was her. I would have glared right back but I was to focused on remembering everyones name and trying to see the race on our 19" TV that was 15' away to pay any attention to the people at the other table.

I got bored today, so i decided to give HDR a try..
I fail.
But once i get some of the pics done i'll upload them, i can't figure out what i'm doing wrong, but it either looks like nothing or too cartoonish

also, yesterday i was walking around my car and noticed the corner of my front bumper had scratches and scuff marks on it. like someone turned into a concrete wall. it was rough and no signs of trading paint, so it couldnt have come from someone hitting and run. which leaves my mom, my little sister and my little brother. my little sister doesnt go anywhere with walls, school parking sometimes, my mom gets the groceries with it. which leaves my asshole irresponsible idiot of a brother. man i'm mad

Man, as much as I like the Scoob, it's just a car, nothing worth getting all pissed off about. Everything that can be done to it can be fixed, it's just a matter of money. That, or it would be a great learning experience for your brother to learn how to fix it himself. I doubt he went out and intentionally ran it into a wall.

When we first moved here, E bent the Acura a little, and was actually pretty much afraid to tell me about it because she thought I would freak out. She was actually pretty upset about it. It was about that time when I realized that I can (and will) get another car, and that I needed to stop being so hung up on making this one perfect.

So, I guess what I am saying here is, which is more important? The car that you are going to move on from soon, or the brother that you are not? Personally, I would be more pissed that someone didn't tell me they wrecked my shit, than that they wrecked the car.

Oh, and you need to update your sig.
