Hope to get my MCS outta the garage this week...

 

i filled up my FitS this morning... ok, only 6.5gallons, but only $11.

 

Yeah... I just filled up my Kia rental from EMPTY for under $20... Unbelievable

 

beaters are nice, huh?

 

Not as nice as having my own car....

Spent 2 hours last night being my 9-year-old's sticker biotch while he assembled one of these:

Ferrari FXX racecar... thing is awesomely detailed for a Lego car.... has working "air jacks", bonnet, boot, doors, fantastic tires and wheels, etc.

 

nice! i have the F1 car my buddy gave me a few years back. luv
the techniq (sp?) series. i have a loader, digger, toetruck, etc etc

im still looking for the large backhoe that was once popular several
years ago. it had plastic treads on the catepillar, etc. i might get
their latest digger as xmas present to myself.


believe it of not, ive been practicing playing my keyboard every
morning since sunday. slushy outside = no motoring MCS = practice
playing an instrument.

 

We had a great trip up to Alberta. Got to "drive" around the mountains in a yaris YUC. Oh well, we had a great time, and I could care less about following behind gravel trucks.

ooo~ im sorry to hear that lotise (yaris).

 

It, the yaris, was uncomfortable to sit in, was about as quick as snot frozen on a rock, handled like a shoebox, had a crappy defroster, 2 maybe 3 buttons to push, but it got not bad gas mileage, and like I said, gravel trucks were not an issue, no matter how close they are

So... I'm guessing you didn't detail that Yaris before you gave it back, Mark ??

 

It was not overly detailed when we got it. But I did manage to cover up the swirls in the black paint with an even coating of road slop

oh i know the feeling. hertz gave us a yaris twice during our
visit to toronoto. it was nice of them. lol

yaris = borolla



hey, too much snowing... i think my MCS will be sleeping
for a while. it only accumulated like 1" but the roads
need to be dry.

 

Gonna pick up the new, improved Blimey in a few hours... yeah, baby.

Have a few things to do to get him completely back together, then there will be pics.
