Good Afternoon all. Ashley Sorry to hear about your friend. Just remember the good times to help pull you through.

They predicted a snow storm today but it missed us thankfully. If it stays dry 1 more day i'll give the Monte a bath. I try to do it if the main roads are dry so it stays clean for at least 2 days.

Hi there, checking back in. Looks like my first day at the high school will be Tuesday. The benefits are looking like the best I've ever had at any job.

Show him the picture Ashley posted. It made me think twice about going out to the highway this afternoon for a quick joy ride in the Monte. It always makes me feel better when life's problems are in my way, but its not worth it when you think of the consequences that ended Ashley's friend's life.

Afternoon All,

Busy day at the office. No time to check in 'til now.

Drew - Good to hear your supervisor has so much confidence in you. That kind of quality work will get you far in life.

Ashley - So sorry to hear about your friend. Something like that is a reminder to the rest of us to keep our head in the game when behind the wheel (or handlebars for us 2-wheelers). Keep the rubber side down as they say...

Evening all, what a long day today. Walked outside to start work on my sub, there was freezing rain, which turned to snow and it snow the whole time me and my dad were working. And everything put up a fight every step of the way(typical for us, nothing is ever easy) But FINALLY its installed and working. Just have to neaten it up with the wires and such.

Thankfully i found out i didn't have to work til later tonight, good thing

Yea....... Power, ground, remote, splices into both speaker wires, and the wires from the amp to sub. My original mounting place for the amp on top of the sub didn't work as it wouldn't fit in the trunk, i have to find a plce to put it and then neaten/hide the wiring

Just tried to win me a Dell Laptop for parts on Ebay so I can fix my Dell. It jsut needs a new screen, already installed new hard drive, keyboard, and cd/dvd drive right before it fell off the couch and broke the screen. It still works but you only have about a 5x5 section of good screen. Stupid sniper programs cut me out with 1 second to go. I bidded at 29 seconds left. Oh well, keep looking. I have 2 nice laptops that both need screens. My son has a fairly new Toshiba. Both screens went at about the same time. So I just bought 2 new ones with plans to sell the others once repaired.
