    There's NASCAR on Setanta, it's really weird.
    They're turning left and right, they're breaking and no one's crashing.
    What the hell is this?!

    Yep... I'm back sooner than I know :(

    Completely broke... A tough decision either way. Do I stay and end up mentally damaged or do I leave and leave my friends there, leave my (sort of) ladyfriend there, lose my promotion and forefit nearly a grand?

    Sometimes money just ain't worth it. My health is everything, I can't píss it away to afford the tax for the 406...

    Plus they were very worried at how distant I was, how I seemed to be miles away... Didn't want them upset seeing me like that :)

    So now that I'm back home, I can focus on getting shut of some of these cars and sorting out some personal issues :)

    First, need to get that 406 driving again (only car I've ever had that could be started with no ECU :pac:) :D

    Conzy got himself some new shoes and a new face.

    RJ took down another poster over a my car is better than your car debate,
