Welcome to the IHoP

Went kart racing tonight. It was like real life Mario Kart. My brakes kept locking up and anytime I went into a hard corner, around I went. Punted a few people off the track, so at least I didn't go alone. Switched karts for the second race and I was finally able to do something. I started in the back both times and of course the only person I passed the first time was the guy in front of me, until my first spin. They had this nasty curb on the exit of the last turn leading onto the straight and I kept cutting the corner pushing the exit and I finallly nailed the thing, but there was a pothole conveniently right before the curb. I hit this thing about 25mph and got the cart up on two wheels. Scared the shit out of me when it slammed back down. 1/2" of fiberglass on that seat sure felt like a swift kick to the ass.

Here's where we raced. Pretty sweet track, but of course all the bumps are conveniently located at every corner entry.

The real moving begins tomorrow.

I hate moving. But a bit excited for the new beginning.

Hmm, last to post last night and first to post this morning.

Does anybody have a good design for a structure to raise my center channel above my TV? I bought a tv wall mount about a year ago and used that for a bit in this place, but my new place doesn't want any holes in the walls. Maybe it would help once I got my entertainment center. Although if I go that route, maybe it would be best for me to get an easy color to match. Like straight black.

Hmm, or maybe have Ryan2 build me a huge honkin' entertainment center for my 47-50" TV that has sides and a top built into it to hold the center channel above the TV. What do you think it would cost for something like that Ryan? Something like this: http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?ProductID=25625401 only obviously able to fit a 50" or so TV. Or would that thing just be too big and awkward looking?

Fuck the no holes comment. Put them in and patch before you leave. They really can't complain about that.

GRRR, A/C problems in teh jeep. I hope it's just a small leak.

The stock stereo is now working in the M

Going out now to put the interior back in. Boo.

[topgun 262]

Nick. Fuck the apartment people, put holes in it then patch it.

Also, I can't build an entertainment center like that for that price, nor even close. But, personally I don't like the look of it either.

[topgun 262]

Also on the center channel, give me some photos and some dimensions to work with and I can see what I can knock out.

We got done with roofing at 6:30, and then the owners had us stay for food, beer, and bs'ing. They had been drinking since about noon, bunch of ~40yr old folks drunk, it was pretty damn funny.

[topgun 262]

They sure did cook a mean burger though, it was damn tasty.

[Godsmack 361]

[topgun 262]

But damn, sweated my balls off today. Can't ever remember having sweat drip down off the ole nose like that before...

[///M5 2,833]

[Spencerk 4]

Girlfriends b-day last night, spent the night on rush street in downtown Chicago. Blew 1200 bucks and I feel like I want to die right now

[topgun 262]

How the hell????

Bottle service and a hooker for each of you?

[Godsmack 361]

I am gonna go say gas, food, door charges, hotel, and the best liquor he could buy

[///M5 2,833]

When I lived in Chicago a normal weekend was $300-400, $1200 is big but not that hard.

[///M5 2,833]

Anyone know of any sites that give locations that are good to take pictures of your car at?

Or for that matter a recommendation around Mpls would be stellar as well.

Sean I would go down to a local park. Get a hottie to pose with it. Women help sell rides.
