Well ****, seems I owe St. Vincent's hospital $2200 for my visit on Oct. 7th..... I didn't ******* go to St. Vincents on the 7th! I wonder if it was the same dick head who used my info to open an AARP account and run a credit check using my bank account a week or two ago. Son of a bitch.

Not sure why it just clicked, but that ******* who stole my identity used it to open an AARP account so he could go to the doctor and get by with a co-pay only of $200, instead of the full amount. Now that I canceled the AARP account, he owes the rest, which is what I now owe. He had something done that cost roughly $4000. I will know more tomorrow when I call them. I hope I can get out of this one with a simple "it was fraud" and the charges will be dropped, but somehow I think it will be more difficult than that. I hope I don't have to bring lawyers to court over this ****.

Would you guys still love me if I did a mild n/a build? The funds for a proper turbo build just aren't there right now, and I can't bring myself to half *** it like I have every car to come before this one. I was thinking I would track down another block, and a 99-00 head and manifold, throw in some m-tuned rods, some Supertech 85.5 11:1 pistons and maybe exhintake, then MS PnP and bolt-ons. Would make my suffering more livable since currently it is just far to sluggish and slow. At least a build like this would be good for at least a peppy daily driver. Then in the future when I can afford to make my dreams come together, buy an NB (which I would prefer to turbo over an NA) and then boost that bitch! Of course this n/a build will still cost me $3000 said and done, but the turbo plans I have would still be more than double that, and I can't save money well at all with the pitiful income I make currently. At least the n/a build I could slowly work on, buying a part here and a part there. It would just be easier for me right now. And before someone says "you can build a turbo setup piece by piece, and for less than $3000", yes I know, but that isn't what I want to do, and it won't be for less than $3000, and I won't be able to save up large sums of money for some of the big parts I want.

I've seen family fight real identity theft, and you usually have to get a lawyer involved to get anything done, and especially to get law enforcement moving.
Where your case may differ is that he's now also falsified medical records (if he went under the guise of your name). Sounds really odd to me though. I mean did the doctor this past week say anything about your sex change operation last month?
Good luck fighting it all. I have very little tolerance for thieves.

Thanks. I'm going to have to find out exactly what the hell is going on tomorrow. It seems like it would be tough to falsify who you were at a hospital. Pretty sure it's standard practice to show picture identification at least. This jerkoff gets medical work done with what is technically MY insurance (though I didn't sign up for it or want it) and under MY name, which will go on my record. Not sure how to get that removed. While not at all making it better or excusable, at least they got medical work done and not take out a loan for several big screen plasma TV's or something like that. I wonder if this **** for brains is really stupid enough to have used his real name, Donnie Acorda. Surely not.

..... now that I think about it..... no, not really. I wish it were only that. I just hope the person has gotten what he wanted out of me (medical stuff) and will leave me alone now. Not likely, but I'm hoping for it.

Jeg's has grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat! prices on these. #10 straight fittings are $8 and the 90's are $15, roughly 2/3 the price of the fancy brands. Bat Inc also has great prices on the Mocal fittings which look 10x better but I think the Jeg's fittings go together much easier and their much easier to order.
I'm converting all the lines to AN style fittings including the fuel lines soon and vacuum lines. Then, I start the wiring project with aircraft bulkheads, a fuse/relay panel in the glove box, and hopefully that will get this car on track to clean, simpleness.
