I just figured I was in trouble again. What did you catch me doing this time that I will deny being involved in?

I've been here. Not a lot to say.

I'll roll 42k by this weekend. The Continentals still stick too much in the dry. They are awesome in the wet.

LMAO so funny and another reason is that when my friends ask me if they can drive my car I always asked them if they can drive stick 9 out of 10 times they say they can't.

This is a great story. Most kids nowadays can't drive stick. I grew up on them. My wife and I boght two new Chevrolet Sonics last Sunday. The kid working Make-ready couldn't drive stick.

Really..........he works for a car dealer and can't drive stick. How worthless is that?

Not only that, he did a piss poor job of prepping the cars too.
