I know. WTF. I don't want to die under the wheels of a car. That's why I don't ride West Union Rd. There is no bike lane, no shoulder and the rolling land creates blind spots that hide even a car. At 55+ mph you just can't stop in time if there's a bike in your lane. If I want a longer ride I go up and back on the bike path twice.

damn.. cold virus is severe these days. started with coughing and ended up with tonsillitis.
meanwhile my ps3 stopped working... played only about 2 games of mw3 and it shut down by itself and doesn't wanna boot up again. googled the issue and it seems like its "The Yellow Light of Death (YLOD)."
new map is coming out on 29th and not sure if i wanna fix this or just get a new console.

What is the intercooler? Sounds like something my slim could use. I have to open up the cabinet TV while I play games otherwise its a sauna in there.

i'm not sure if mine is backward compatible 60g or 80g but it was a metal gear solid 4 bundle package that i bought back in 2008. so close to 4 years for mine too. i used to run intercooler too when i had ps3 in confined place but i took them off because of excessive noise and moved the ps3 to well ventilated area. with or without the intercooler, never had overheating issue or any other issue and it just went boom! yellow light of death..
There are fix-it-yourself videos on the interwebs for that issue. I'm also going to be shopping around for used electronics next week. If you want I can test a couple used PS3 systems while I'm looking for TV's. There is a 320G on CL right now.

i saw those fiy videos and they seem temporary fix. bake the ps3 with heat gun and cool in down in the fridge placed upside down.
or disassemble the whole ps3 and heat up the cpu and gpu with heat gun, let it cool down, apply some fresh thermal compound.

i don't know why all the pwp/black/navi tsx's are located in eastern states that are at least couple thousand miles away.
my wife increased the budget for me on the tsx and now we are looking upto $20k on a 1g tsx. found couple certified '08 pwp/black/navi that are under 30k miles with little bit of bumper to bumper warranty remaining for $21k. waiting for a dealer reply to see if they can close the deal for $20k shipped to beaverton.
amazing resale value on mint 1g tsx

I had a white Integra. That was the only vehicle that I've owned in that color, or lack of color. It did hide paint and body imperfections well. But I never did care for it. I'm a red or black kind of car guy.

Seems to be going around. I may have spread it at work unknowingly. Awesome drive in this morning up in the hills. Seems the dip shits thought it'd be snowy and kept to the highway, pretty much had the road to myself. Flocked trees and roofs but nothing on the road up on skyline. Beautiful drive. You can actually appreciate it when you aren't dealing with the dumb asses.

Today would be a good day to have a truck or at least an AWD car.
Like you said though.... Somethings going on because it's supposed to be spring... We pretty much got all of the snow we didn't get in winter in two days.
#6743
today wasnt so bad for the drive.. minus a few slow pokes.. but i got around them and still made good time..
feels like our 4 seasons have shifted.. our winter seemed like fall and our spring is turning out to be our winter maybe next we will be like the movie.. the day after tomorrow

I live in Albany(west of Lebanon) and we have had snow non-stop since early Wednesday morning. Probably around 6 inches on the ground right now. It's insane. I drove in it in my TL yesterday because I had to to take a final, and it wasn't that bad because it was around 1pm and the roads were pretty much slush. But last night I went to pick up my sister in my '97 Maxima and it was bad. People were only doing about 20-30 through town. Saw a few people who hit the curb and a person who was stuck on a hill up to my neighborhood.(which should be sanded by the morning) It sucks tho because no one has studded tires this time of year. Definitely not taking my TL out today and probably not my Maxima either. If I HAVE to then I will probably just take the Maxima because I definitely don't want to curb my A-specs. But I will probably just stay home and mess around in the snow today.

It really isn't. I will be picking some up for next winter though..... Or whenever it decides to snow again.

arg pulled in to tight this morning and scratched the side of my bumper! DAMMIT!
Touching up that car is such a pain in the ass. I should just buy a new one lol, a black one! That way scratches on black urethane don't show up as bad.

How was the commute? Ironically I had the day off because my shoulder was bothering me.
#6754
It won't buff out, paint is removed! ouch. I came in late today so I don't know, for me the commute was great at 10:30
#6756
i like the white RDXs i think they are pretty mint.. only issue is all the panels are different colors.. wonder if acura will fix that for the 2013 models
SH-AWD FTW!!

I think I was traumatized by the hard time that my buddies gave me for driving a white car. Seems like silver or black was the color to have back then and white was a "chicks only" car color. Of course I'm sure they were just jealous. I traded the car off after a bad brake job. BTW, Hondas require that the rotors be spun/turned down ON the car.
