I'd totally use that haha. Convert my Dyson to be a lawn mower. Smaller and take up less garage space....sign me up!

yep and looks cool. i’m not a hard core biker at all and wear casual clothes when i ride so i don’t want something looking too sporty or too off-road.

wooot, got my tracking number for my bicycle this am. looks like i’m going to take a day off this week when it arrives.

another day at the office, no big meetings or anything, should be smooth sailing.. in murky rough waters with piranhas and electric eels and such.. haha

have a good tuesday everyone!

Ah makes sense about the type of bike then.

Always good feeling when you get your tracking info.

Ever since getting my review privileges revoked earlier this year...I haven't bought anything on amazon haha. I wonder if they will ever restore my ability to review.

yah i use to ride road bikes as a kid but no more. i’m just a srow middle aged guy with not a six pack stomach but a single gallon pack. economy size. i just like riding around for fun.

my wife said she too got kicked off amzon’s review. she asked which review and wat she did wrong and faking anus on the other end would not say and said they will not go into details. wtf mang. and yet they have those hacked engrish reviews all giving 5 stars. so much faking bs at amazon.

we started buying more and more from walmart online. always liked the store, never liked the people that shop there. now online i don’t have that problem. lol

I'm sad what Amazon is becoming. Your two households are examples of the people that I WANT reviews from. They probably blocked you all for using proper English.

Amazon's logic...if all items are 5-stars...equals every item will sell...equals insane profit. So lets get rid of reviewers who give critical reviews.

oh yah, after cleaning the GK over the weekend, my wife was impressed how clean the interior was. i pointed out how the car was rusting in the engine bay, the door hinges, wheel wells, etc and she was like wow~.

but showed no interest swapping to a new car. oh well..

got this blueray live music vid from jland... oh so good.


but in brainfart news, i left the passenger door ajar on the STI since sunday when i qd'ed the car and even forgot to plug the car into the battery manager. i am a faking idiot.

the battery wasnt dead, but im sure it drained quite a bit since the battery manager's been charging the last 3hrs. usually the thing floats within 10min. will see how much cca it has after charge. i dont park the car outdoors in the winter so im sure its fine but oh well. sucks.. might need to get me a new car. lol

alright i am off today waiting on my bicycle to arrive. i don’t remember the last time i took a day off this year but it is nice. still got house chores to do and check work email, but besides that i am going to be spending most of my day relaxing and setting up my new bike today.

i checked up on my STI before heading to bed last night and saw that the battery was nearly charged by 5 hrs so my guess is that it was drained to about 70%. not terrible and so glad i caught that yesterday.

have a good wednesday everyone! wat? this week already half over??!

Those are some old beans.

S2000 threw a CEL last night on my way home. Sounds kind of weird at idle with the hood open but I don't see anything obviously out of line. Borrowing my friend's OBD2 scanner tonight to see what codes are being thrown. Hopefully something simple.

Might pull the car off the road early this year, put it up on jack stands are start the suspension refresh much earlier than expected.

hope something simple, mike! do you put stabilizer in your gas when you put away your car in the winter? could be spoiled gas if not?

those obd2 readers can be had for cheap these days.

I don't put stabilizer, just fill the tank all the way up with ethanol free stuff. I don't think it is that though, I'm on my fourth tank of 2018 haha

I already picked up my friend's OBD2 scanner, so that saves me some cash. The less I spend, the better & I just don't like owning things.
