Hello Everyone! I hope you all are having a great weekend!

Angie- I think you have Mike beat with the RPMs vs. MPH!! :P

Mike- When I come to Missouri..you're gonna take me for a ride in that goat of yours!

I picked my car up early from the body shop because they only painted the front bumper and had not done the HS pieces black or put anything on my car, so I said give it to me for the weekend so I can go to my dang show! Got back at 5 and had a blast!! Got to meet another forum member (wiseheak- Kenny) and took some pics with his monte! (There's a thread *grand valley state car show photos* if you wanna see some!) Can't wait to have some fun and go to some other ones!!

Hopefully by the end of this week my car will be finished and all the things I ordered are here and put on.. Pics will be everywhere of course

-Ash

Hey everybody!

Having a pretty good weekend so far. Went to the NRA convention downtown yesterday. Today I got to test drive a 2013 Mustang, but don't worry I'm not gonna buy a ford . It was for a fundraiser at the high school. Ford was donating $20 to the high school for every test drive. And boy was it fun. Floored it from a stop light and got to 60 mph like nothing . And i got a 15 mile bike ride in haha

evening all, horrible night at work. Opted to not stay late as i couldn't get out of there soon enough. I figured out the main reason i get so angry there, i cant vent my frustration. Cant b***h yell/scream curse like i would to vent some anger. So it just keeps building until someday you explode, i come closer to that point all the time.

Mike thats some good fuel economy at 70 for a V8. I think my top speed in the monte was 100 or so

Keane, do you ever take out your anger and vent your frustration on inanimate objects? My cousin told me to try chopping wood when I'm angry about something, and it really does help. I don't actually chop wood (we don't have a fireplace), but when I can't yell at the person I'm mad at I go out in the yard and start digging holes. Or breaking branches with my feet. Or ripping vines off the fence where they're growing out of control. One time my mother and I got so mad at something we took it out on a lilac bush - we started cutting branches off, whacking away at the poor bush until there was nothing left but a bare trunk. We kinda regretted that one.

Anyway, you could give it a try - find something physical to do when you're mad. If you're at work you could throw a few boxes around or leave the building long enough to run around the block. One thing I DON'T recommend is jumping in the Monte and punching the gas pedal.
