I will be at C&C from about 8-930 but then going to work at the humane society adoption fair so I can't do anything either afterwards.
That sounds like an awesome birthday. I hope to drive the TSX at CMP next year if I get everything situated that I need to have for it.

You instead would want the 12-24mm f4 lens which luckily for you is cheaper anyways $1099 plus shipping.
I have it if you would like to try it out.

Yeah Eric, that place has been quite a few different places. I grew up in pineville (90-2001) and that use to be a hot dog stand, then went out of business, then became a mom and pop ice cream parlor, then went out of business again and now it's a drive n.....I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has

. Just don't get in the way of the grazers that frequent it...they might mistake you for something they could eat.

At this point, if I could put them on the CC and avoid the definite subsequent divorce then I would.

Your wife is very sweet. I can't see her getting THAT angry about wheels 
10-31-2013, 09:47 AM

It wouldn't really be the wheels, but the financial implications. She's most certainly a sweetheart, but she helps me keep my priorities straight and with another $9k left on my student loans, ~$6k left on my car, and our savings somewhat depleted currently she would be completely justified in her frustration.
The wheels are coming, I'll just be having to wait until March-ish to order them. What I'm not looking forward to is the 4+ month wait after I order them. I've never heard of a case of any shop having 10j +45 randomly in-stock in Mag Blue.

Well...I hear you, and I understand where they're coming from...
But, I'd be up the creek hardcore without her. All jokes aside, she definitely wouldn't leave me, but she would be pissed. Not at all worth it imo
