Why not just say $8000. I mean.. a penny, really? I don't think that trick works anymore.

Talk about the worst timing ever last year. This time around I have both hands and no reason to get pissed, so I should be all set. lol

Funny you said that cause I actually shredded the first one and re-wrote it saying $8000.

She'll be here within the next hour or so to go over it and I'll know whether or not I got the job.

**** yeah!! She was happy with the price and said she'll have a check for me this week!

This saves me from having to get a small business loan!

How long are you expecting it to take to paint?

Hopefully I can have it done before it starts getting in the high 80's-90's, so 4-5 weeks. She told me there's no rush on their end, to take my time and work on it when I can.

I'll just have to coordinate my schedule so I can keep working on the eBay stuff at the same time. Either way both are at the same location, so if its not one its the other. lol

Here's a couple shots of the front of the building and my little test section.

So I've taken up a new habit at work- Everytime I use the bathroom, after I'm done washing my hands, I grab the paper towels I need from the automatic dispenser and on the last one I hold the trigger that tells it to dispenser more to the next person that waves their hand in front of the sensor. Meaning, the next person will be left there with wet hands and no way to dry them (unless they are smart enough to figure out why it won't deliver the goods).

Oh and the trigger is the sharp edge that cuts the paper when you pull it. Reach up into the dispensing area and hold it still when you pull the last towel off.

I don't know which I have a harder time believing, you getting near Brooklyn Decker's vag, or a woodpecker being able to drag a full grown human.

People on M.net are so retarded. There is so much stupid **** in this thread that you wouldn't believe it:

My personal favorite is people who quote the owners manual like it's some holy bible, and anything out of spec of it is WRONG and sure to blow your engine to bits.

I once read a thread about how there is a weird noise coming from the trunk when they close it on their NC. Guess how many pages it got to...
