For those interested you can take a sneak peak:
http://www.jdmlove.org/redesign/front_page.html

no working links yet and a couple issues with IE. Working on the PHP now to get it functional. Probably up in the next couple weeks.
Looks cool, should make the banner into a sticker. Thats a cool looking design.



So i open mail box today, and see a box with Japanese writing all over it.

10mm Kics Spacers ftw! And with me selling the tail lights I had, they only cost me $40

^^ 12K in hospital fee's. That counts for one normal birth, no complications, epidural, 3 day stay.

I probably now alone if you add in day care spend around 1200 - 1300 a month on just my son, the rest goes to food, wifey needs, and occasionally some crap for myself lol

Yeah, kids can cost a lot at first. Diapers, food, daycare, toys and new clothes every month can add up, but for most part are relatively inexpensive. Kids get more expensive when they hit the teenage years and they can't work yet.

My two teenage boys are into their electronic toys, sports, girls, etc. And they're always hungry. It's all good though 'cause they're good kids, get good grades, are good athletes (lacrosse, basketball and football - always start), love my wife and I and the Lord. We're blessed!

You're from Anaheim Hills? I used to live in Anaheim, near Ball Road and Sunkist, just off the 57. I had a lot of friends that went to Canyon HS that I worked with at the McDonalds across from the Orange Mall on Tustin Ave, back in the 80's.

There was some talk of a meet a couple of pages ago in this thread. I normally don't participate in those - my TL-S is pretty plain next to the TLs and TSXs in this thread, so nothing to show off.

What are you coming up here for?

Dude....that sucks. Now is not the time to try and find a new job. Trust me.

Tell her to get on unemployment quick, they have been swamped lately and getting through on the phone is near impossible. Ive done all my stuff online...which even that has been going down a lot lately.

Insurance PAID the 12K lol just illustrating the costs and if you didn't have health insurance you'd have to take a loan, which would be impossible now lol so you'd have to perform a bathtub/backyard delivery

luckily they gave her 2weeks notice.. bummer is its right before valentines day..
i have the joy of probably the best job security which is fraud prevention for a bank haha.. and last time i checked its still booming


she was on unemployment about a year ago so they still might have her in the system to reactivate it.. so it should be easier this time
