I was surprised with how quickly some of the stuff I ordered shipped. Since I ordered everything late Friday afternoon, I didn't expect shipping to occur until today or tomorrow. But late Friday night I got an e-mail saying something had shipped. Then Saturday night I got an e-mail saying something else had shipped. Delivery for those items is Tuesday and Wednesday 
. Still no word on the third item

Spill the beans already 
I ordered Forza 5 about two weeks ago. I selected the 5-7 day free shipping and got it in 2 days

Nothing exciting...an intake, exhaust, and catch can. The latter is obviously a maintenance item versus something "useful". Just saw a guy selling a tuner for $300. Fucker.
Yeah, the item that shipped Friday was from Amazon. I selected the free shipping, which is regular shipping that they sit on for a few days before sending, and they sent it that night. I was stunned.

If you throw all the stuff in the car and come up to the house I will help you do the installs. Has to be Friday or Sunday though or after 5pm on Saturday.

Hmmm...and then hit up the breweries 
. I'm pretty sure I can install two of the three items in less than the time it takes to get to your house . And the exhaust would be a PITA to transport, going and coming.

Jack, thanks for sending me this video of your Charger. Also, you've gotten quite tan since the last time I saw you considering the weather!

By the way, I still want that case of Mad Elf. A case of that other stuff I like would be nice, too. Since I know there's going to be an annual Christmas run to Troegs .
I just checked their site...no ordering. I can get wine from all over the world, but not beer from PA?

But there is a place up here to rent a lift for $10 an hour. I think that would make the exhaust pretty quick work.

I know....I hope the saints lose. Even if we lose to the saints in both games and then beat the jets and falcons we can finish 11-5. The panthers I think will make it to the second round of the playoffs but no more than that. We will see though

I am very interested to see the outcome of the teams this year. It would be neat to see the panthers against the seahawks.

I'm actually not a big fan of Mad Elf...I think it's a bourbon barrel aged thing, too sweet.
I'm still crazy about Ballast Point's Victory at Sea Porter though.

I seriously have no idea where he gets the money from. He moves unbelievably fast, and changes it up at least once every single year. I'm just over here trying to save for some wheels lol.

That would be Hop Back then. Nugget Nector is a seasonal (spring) release so it doesn't come in samplers. I can get you a case of Hop Back Amber as well. That is one of my favorites too.

What does everyone think the speed of the Carrera was before it started decelerating?
I'm gonna say 120mph.

Someone on instagram said the starter of the Carrera flew through the air and busted through the window of that building. I look at google maps and its about 150 feet from the lightpole to the building.
