Ken the Bar is our hang out...we haven't stepped inside an actual Dining Room in years!!

MotorOn that L@@Ks awesome!!

 

Thanks guys, I swapped lenses so here's how it looks in normal light.





Those photos emphasize the need for a detailing summer weekend in December!!!

 

While we are talking about light bars, RJ's thinking about getting drunk at a bar.

RJ- I too have pretty much temporarily lost interest in dining...mainly because most foods are too greasy and fatty for my little one. I don't want him eating that stuff too early...and too lazy to make him supper just because the rest of us want to dine out. Or callingup a babysitter $$$... my older son eats the usual stuff.

So I've been doing carryouts and wife makes the little one his supper while I'm getting the food.

Motoron- wow, that can do some serious lightage.

So, weatherchannel lied and its drizzly, foggy, and wet this am. wanted to motor my Z and G today...

Maybe it'll dry up later on. Too lazy to wash them so don't want to get 'em dirty. I shouldve just gassed up the Z yesterday and called it quits for winter...but I still think I can motor her a few more times this year. I donno, I might take her out after work.

 

My boys are great examples - feeding crap to your kids when they're tiny helps make them tough and bullet proof later. Feeding them "appropriate" stuff justs makes them picky eaters.

 

well I don't feed them crap but my older kid loves eating in general so he isn't picky at all.

Was wet the rest of the day so decided to take the FitS to the container store to pickup something for the wife. Was a decent drive...just needs like 200 more hp. everything feels good but in slow motion.

 

Indeed, sub 30F and I went to a nice Italian Dinner in basketball shorts!

 

motoron- how is ML doing out there in greenbay? she all settled in?

so ended up cleaning up both my Z and G last night after supper. bascially the coconut duster, spot Speedshine, spot SprayOn Wax, Slicked the wheels, and Clarity'ed the interior glass on the Z, exterior glass i use WindowCleaner.

i think im going to pull out the Z tomorrow. it's suppose to be nice at 50F range. i need to also remove the SSR wheels and put the stockers back on the G soon. i can't see myself cleaning those 3pc wheels each and every time i pull her out during the winter.

 

She is working hard, but *not* all settled in.



Currently in between basketball games, taking a snack break. So far an easy day - one injury, and I don't really have a cure for getting nailed in the nuts...

 

ML - hey there!

Well, I'm kinda glad you don't have first hand personal experience remedying nuttage.

Kinda reminds me of our ultrasound for our 2nd kid. I was expecting a girl but then there was no way he was a she.

 

Took some time off today and motored my Z and G. Gassed them both up. Also put the stockers on the G. I should get new tires on the stockers next year. The pilots are about 1/2 worn now and a tad noiser.

Now I can relax a little and not have to worry about snow.

 

Hey Kenchan, I can't seem to pm or email you. Anyway, that alexmadison automotive forum spammer guy has been dealt with.

 

yah, im in stealth mode. you can't see me or hear me.

 

You got something to hide?

 

He's a stealthy kinda guy

 

 

Hey Ken here's some Z stealth-ing discussion for you.....

huh, interesting. my Z's sporting my R53's old V1.

 

anyone remember the DIY how to fix the loose glove box striker adjustment? my buddy has a 02 cooper and his glove box doesnt latch.

i fixed it on my 03, but cant remember where i saw that DIY...

 

The switch to the locking glove box?

there was a DIY to adjust the striker so that the glove box door doesn't open when driving over rough roads...

 

I remember that - seems like it was just a "loosen the screws, adjust, re-tighten" kind of fix...

Ah - here

aha! thanks blimey.

 

Here's a post by a guy named Kenchan that I think addresses the problem (?)

 

That's frickin hilarious.

I frequently find posts that I forgot I ever made... been a long, strange trip... and ken has almost 4x as many posts as me...
