Whatever man. They haven't added the 4 foot tall wing for downforce yet.

This is EXACTLY what every car I've ever built in GT / Forza becomes once I fill it with mods /engine swaps. A completely useless tire-burner in all gears. That being said, I want to drive it. I'm guessing it wouldn't take more than a few minutes in the car to put it into a wall.

Man, Aramark's WebTMA asset management program sucks, it is the slowest responding piece of poo poo. Click the edit button, wait 5 seconds for it to even notice, and another 10-20 seconds for it to update the page so you can edit. Then saving your edit takes another 30 seconds, as does switching to the next asset task.

So what should be a 20 second process at most takes the better part of 2 minutes. gently caress you, Aramark.

I bet it's for somebody like an "Alex Smith" who didn't get firstlast or first.last (or, as you said, f.i.r.s.t.last because the . doesn't matter) and instead had to put a number or letter in there that gets his email entered incorrectly by HR or something. alexssmith vs alexsmith vs alexsmith87 vs alexsmith88, etc. I got lucky and got my first.last, but my name is not too common, so I've never gotten spam like that. My friend who also got first.last has an fairly common name, though, so I wonder if get gets junk like that.

The way this is written, I'm not entirely sure whether you're talking about your car, or your face. Sinus -> Air filter, lungs -> turbo, infection -> dust storm? Or hydraulic pump -> neti pot?

Tires were looking a little low on the zx2. Turns out they were all at 20psi and under when they should be about 35psi, and one of them was so low the stick-type pressure gauge with the plastic bit that pops out the end wouldn't even move when I tried to check it. Maybe thats why it was so loud on the highway when I drove it home. :shepface:

Now I buy both at the store, but I tend to use a lot more PB than Seafoam DC.

20psi low is common for a ZX2. You can do mad burnouts in first gear. Then, when you nearly get to 10mph, you get second and it just draaaags.

I still remember my Prodigy login from way back in 1992, when we first got online. Dad dropped like $3000 on a 486DX with a whopping 1mb of ram and a 120mb hard drive, borrowed a 2400 baud external modem from work, and had us online 22 years ago. The only thing I remember doing online at that point was playing Where In The World Is Carmen San Diego. I had (and still have) the original Broderbund game, but I liked the additional difficulty the online version provided.

My parents ISP history goes something like:

Prodigy -> Compuserve -> AOL -> Mindspring/Earthlink (first DSL connection)-> BellSouth/AT&T U-verse, which is what they have now.

Gotta go meet tonight with my friend whose wedding I'm officiating this weekend. We've been friends for about 20 years now and I'm super excited to do the honors, so to speak.
