I'm planning on being here tomorrow and going to the Bay on Thursday instead. So get while the gettin's good. I am mopping the shop floor after Checker's poor MINI bled oil all over the place. The coil was tightened down too much at the last shop and caused the inserts to leak badly. It will be a trip to the steam cleaner after it's fixed. All my tools got a good oiling, though.

Its away for them to get money out of us for stuff other sites give away free. If they want to charge for NAM they should charge for NAM, and let us say whatever the hell we want. Why the heck would I or anyone for that matter pay for something and still have all these stupid rules?

I would cuz look at my totally sweet online profile now. Y'all are in 6th gear & I'm flying at warp 10.0 (aka transwarp) with a custom avatar. Stupendous Man has been my autosignature for awhile, but bonus if you can name my avatar. I'm wondering the opposite- why wouldn't you want to have all this coolness? If you click to view my profile, the Frackmobile comes up. Oh, oh, oh.....my name's in red too, so you also get font color upgrade. Go ahead & admit it - it's rad, totally rad.

The funny thing is they have been talking about leting us do this for free for alongggggggggggg time. I agree with you most of the time but I think this time we will just have to agree to disagree.

When you're done you can come up and wash mine.... Needs a good wax job too. And while you're at it, the lawn needs to mowed and windows on the house are pretty grungy.

A Big Joey-J/FrackyMacky shoutout to Dr.Steve for all the fantastic work he's doing on the Frackmobile. I don't know if anybody else has electrical issues (self-inflicted or not), but Dr.Steve's got some serious skillz. Plus, the fact we have someone of his talent to help work on our cars is invaluable. Could you imagine if we lived anywhere else? I know I'd be royally screwed.

Dude, speaking of smog - I got my DMV renewal on the Cooper yesterday & it didn't say anything about getting smogged. Oh, 'mang' I've got you using a Joe-ism.
