Greetings, my homies. Been AWOL for a while. Hope all is well. I'm NOT going back and reading the scores of pages of posts I missed.

 

But you'd miss all of Ken's adventures with carbon fiber. He was this close to wrapping his toilet in the stuff.

 

 

Now, if he found carbon fiber condoms, THAT I would go back and read about.

 

Oh yeah. I detailed my owl today.

 

Ok - I just skimmed the past umpteen pages and think I can summarize what I missed:

Ken: "I bought this thingy"
Somebody feigns interest
Ken: "Motored the G today"
No one replies.
Ken: "Thought about motoring today, but it looked like rain."
No one replies.
Ken: "Wrapped something in carbon fiber vinyl"
Someone feigns interest
Ken: "Bought some real carbon fiber stuff"
No one replies.
Ken: "Wrapped something else in carbon fiber vinyl".
Someone feigns interest.
Ken: "Bought something else. Damn UPS"
No one replies.

This pretty much repeats for about 200 pages.

Is that the gist of it?

 

no, you forgot the part no one was asking about you, blimey.

 

You can see the Shadow Dragon on the www.kia.com website, choose Soul, on the right side you will see a small icon "Special Edition Souls" click on that the current SE4 is what is displayed, then in the upper right corner click on the Black Soul you see, then on the SE3, and Finally a pic. pops up, you can also do a 360deg. view to see the way C@@L Decal on the Shadow Dragon.

 

That was it's own little adventure.



Someone needs to get that decal on a MINI and take it to MOTD next year.

*Feigns interest @ Blimey before heading off to clean up some extra space for photos on the hard drive*

 

 

but i was kinda wondering where the heck you went.

wat were you working on?

 

Been crazy busy in a new-ish job. All good, just had to change focus for a while. Still crazy busy, but missed my MINI homies.

 

ahhh, congrats on the new-ish job. do you make owls now instead of the wind chimes?

 

Still no word from the damn shop. They suk ****.

I paid via paypal (creditcard). I'm going to dispute to paypal tomorrow am if I don't hear from them.

 

"I bought some thingy and somebody's customer service sucks"

I think I've heard this theme before in this thread...

 

so wife emailed me this am that this huge box arrived via FedEX... and it's from japan.

couple of hours ago i sent out a dispute to paypal... i dont need all this workout.

 

yah, go back to making owls...

Hope it all works out. If you'd stop ordering stuff, you'd stop having all these problems.

Blimey, you missed the part where I got a new MINI!

 

Nope - I was here for that part - I went AWOL right after that.

Still lovin it?

 

Still not the same...but better than being without MINI.

She needs a bath BADLY...it's so freaking buggy up here. Bleh. I probably should get on that today.

 

I hear ya. Clara was a special girl.

 

Blimey you went MIA even before Clara was traded-in, huh? That was a long time ago.

Motored my Z this am. finished my lunch so going to work later on. the exhaust sounded great. I'm not sure my neighbors are going to like my new exhaust though at cold start (high idle for about 20sec)
