I hate Cadillacs and everyone who drives them. I was driving through my neighborhood (Main neighborhood road is just that, a neighborhood road. Small, relatively low speeds, about 4.5 miles long). Some dumb bitch in an Escalade pulls in, does 15 ******* mph the whole way. Average speed I've seen is ~35ish.
Anyways, it's this skinny dumb bitch in workout cloths talking on her bright pink iphone with neon-pink nailes longer than huslter's chest hair. Her mirrors are set so badly that I can actually see EVERYTHING about her, that's why I know what she was wearing.
Anyways, it took my usual 7 or 8 minute journey about 15 minutes to complete. In that time, I decided to figure out how close you can actually tail someone. < 3 feet the whole time. I call that success.

I was out cruising around tonight (Just for fun, looking for a race). I came across this black Celica Supra with tinted windows and cruised next to them for a bit. The next stoplight, they rev a little and I rev back to tell them it's on.
Fully fledged, tire smoking start from both of us. That car was loud. I pulled about half a car length on it when at 80 we both let off. It was CLOSE. The next stoplight they roll down their window, and it's this hot-*** asian chick and she says "Damn, fast *** car!".
It was seriously like something strait out of a Fast and the Furious movie, I lol'd for a good 5 minutes.
God damn I love being 17.

To trade in or not to trade...... Been thinking of getting rid of my TC for a nice Sedan w/ leather interior. I've read great things about these, nothing but great things I've read especially after eliminating the displacement on demand system. Supposed to be able to get around 420WHP by putting in a LS6 cam, headers, and exhaust. It being an auto doesn't bother me, I am pretty tired of shifting gears on my DD in stop go traffic. Plus, I've heard in sport shift mode its pretty nice anyway, and the 6speed GXP's run like $35k which is more than I want to spend on a domestic car. The only thing about this one that kind of kills me is I wish the price was about 2-3k lower. Comparing to others with similar mileage though it seems to be around market price. They don't get down to around $23k until they are in the 30K miles range. NADA value is around $28k and KBB says like $30k.

I love when people try to race you when you have no intent to race and won't leave you alone. Some douche in an older 7 series BMW (late 90's) didn't like that I passed he and another car that were riding side by side in the slow lane. He got up beside me and kept looking over wanting to run me. Finally I got fed up and bumped the throttle and his dumb *** took off. Too bad one of the 6 or 7 cops I saw on the way home didn't see him at 120+. I was just ready to get home and eat my BK and relax after work.

Holy **** going from 5.25'' speakers to 6.5'' speakers in the front REALLY helps things out. I was using Pioneer, then went to a nice set of Polks. Bass has improved in a huge way, and crankability is WAY up. With my old speakers volume setting 36 was about as far as I could go, and that was with bass almost set to zero. Now with plenty of bass, I can crank to as high as 50 with some songs, all songs at least mid 40's. Speaker sensitivity of the Polks is higher, I guess is why. I wish the NA door speaker covers weren't so damn small, they are probably blocking a lot of the sound. I was going to cut the panels up again, and use the supplied grill, but decided that was far more work than I cared to endeavor into this morning.

How long did it take you to type that, vash? lol.
Seriously though, sucks man, I once had half the skin on my pointer finger ripped off and I couldn't use it, I can't imagine not using 4. I wish you the best.

Long story short some **** happened, I lost control of my ******* temper, and instead of hitting someone else I slammed down about a dozen punches on a solid object.
******* stupid I know, but too late to think like that now. Maybe next time I'll think about this and learn from it.
Now I need to figure out how I'm going to finish painting a 3600sqft building one handed.

I fractured the 4 metacarpal bones on my right hand, and I'm right handed.
