Do it up, TSX's are so comfortable, not to mention the potential with the k24. Hell even if you leave it stock they're great cars. I was looking at an 06, black on black 6mt a couple years back. In retrospect it would have been a good purchase. Oh well.

Oh, here it is - Kiplinger says Austin is the best city for the next decade. Traffic SUCKS up there, though, I hafta warn you. But you will see a LOT of Fits, especially in BOM. (the college up there considers "burnt orange" to be its color).

Unlike South FL or TX, up in Austin, you can actually ride a bike or walk somewhere w/o being totally soaked in sweat by the time you get there....the humidity is so much lower. So yeah, if you could get an apartment close to the store that would be good, I take it she works at WF too? Or she's flexible about where she lives? There are a lot of bad stall points in Austin, but I-35 is probably the worst...there's no way to expand it and the traffic has only grown over the years...

I gotta warn you, the liberals up there are some of the most arrogant in the country, really holier-than-thou. If you agree with their philosophy, you will enjoy the "social atmosphere," but if you don't buy into the party line, you might get sick of them looking down their noses at you. I guess you already know this, working at WF, but Austin invented WF...and that college is totally liberal...

LOL at Topeka being #10 on anything but the shittiest place to live list. Having grown up in Kansas City, Topeka was a shithole to be avoided at almost any cost.

She doesnt work at WF but she can get a job no problem. Im very much used to the whole foods type people. Ive met the CEO a few times and several top people in the company. I even went to a huge whole foods even in austin in 2008 when sxsw was going on. Im thinking about staying there for about a year and depending on how it goes Ill move to nyc after that.

What happened to Coleman? Wasn't he an alcoholic or drug addict or something?

brain hemmorrhage


Actor Gary Coleman, who had suffered from a brain hemorrhage from an accident in his home Wednesday, died Friday in a Utah hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Family members and close friends were at his side when life support was terminated at 12:05 p.m.

Aren't you in San Antonio? It's more humid in SA than Austin. Austin is still hot, but a ton less humid than Houston or FL.
