[Mama T]

Stopping in to throw Memphis BBQ on everyone!! *splat*

[khans]

Ewwww!

Actually, Bandana's BBQ up here sounds kinda yummy (and I don't even like bbq!)

[XD2O]

Wow, and it only took you guys 4 years to fill it! LOL

Happy Friday IA!

[XD2O]

At this rate I'll be dead before you start act 3! ;)

Hey IA, hows it going, I see the Hawks won again... :up: :up:

[Human Collapse]

Kary, I was just asking Kelsi and Pete tonight when they would drag you down here for one of our meets. Tonight was a decent turn out for bowling at the Bass Pro Shop. I didn't know what you did for a living, but that's awesome. I'd love to fly all over the country and probably the world.

[XD2O]

Morning Zach! Hold on a sec... Hey Kids, Hey Kids, quick it's a wild Iowan... get yer cameras! LOL

I am back to having weekends off now, so I shall make every effort to visit a DM and a CR meet soon!

[khans]

Whoo hoo! :) We'll make sure we go somewhere that serves pudding and mashed potatoes. I know you're getting old and need soft food. :lol:

Gotta do some cleaning and job searching today. Other than that, not sure what else to do!

[XD2O]

No need, I'm a meat eater... ask Pete! LMAO ;)

[khans]

Puree pork chops. :)

This job search is the pits. I just want someone to call me back!!!

[XD2O]

No way, real hard, chewy meat.. no puree here!

[khans]

:)

OMG I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOO bored. I don't feel like doing anything. I've been applying for jobs and such. I just want to talk... but no one is talking!

[Human Collapse]

I was just down there talking...GEEEEEZ!

[XD2O]

Yeah Kelsi thinks we are meat loaf, we are not her Petey so she garners no satisfaction from our oratorical interactions...

[Disposition]

Morning Iowa and hello rain!

[khans]

Morning! How was work? ^^

Sorry about last night, something went haywire with my phone and I got your text at like, 1:30am. At that point I was so out of my element so I didn't text back, haha!

I'm sleepy! And cold! I already called maintenance to come in and close the vents to our heating/cooling unit because it is soooo effing cold! Brrr!

Is it raining? It looks dry so far, but maybe it just hasn't hit us at Valley West yet!

[Disposition]

work sucked as usual...its cool i figured you had probably fallen asleep or somethin heh.

being cold is no fun....i know what you are going through cuz at work for some reason the maintenance guys cant tell what season it is so its usually cold in the winter and hot in the summer in our building.

and yeah it started pouring over here on the east side about 45mins ago....it may have stopped but i dunno for sure

[khans]

Boo. :( Yeah I woke up at 1:30 or whatever thinking my alarm was going off. NOT COOL! haha. But yeah, sorry I just kinda... zzzzzz. haha

The condo assn. just called the office and said they hope to have someone out here within an hour to shut our vents. It's honesly unbearable! And I LIKE cold weather! I figured out that I can't leave my coffee cup on my counter - I have to put it on my desk calendar - because if it's on the actual desk then it gets cold too fast. :lol:

Yeah it started pouring here not long after I posted. It looks like it's night time out!

[Bullwhip]

Morning everyone!

[khans]

Morning Dave, how goes it?

*OMG I just watched my boss fly off the handle at the guy from the condo association!!! DAMN!

[Disposition]

hahahaha yeah its been a nice wet morning and now its time for me to :Dodo22:

[khans]

Alright, enjoy! :)

[Girlie_xA]

OMG>.. is it 5 yet? (aka nap time)

[khans]

I'm anticipating 4. Today just took a pretty crappy turn! I wanna get outta here!

[Girlie_xA]

Driving back from Minnesota and coming straight to work killed me.... uhg... so tired... At least I didn't have to be here at 8.

[khans]

Oh OUCH... that would SUUUUCK.

I got your PM. Let me think about it. :)

[Girlie_xA]

Sounds good!

[khans]

Finally, it's not going to be crazy cold in here anymore!

We now have knobs to control our vents. I have NO air coming out of mine. WHOO HOO!!!

[Human Collapse]

So, it's not set in stone yet, but we may be getting a house in the next month or so. HOPEFULLY!

I was thinking it would be a really cool meet to have a Scikotics Moving Party, eh?

In all reality, do any of you know any one with a nice big truck? Tony, Kelsi, I'm looking at you guys on this one...

Haha!
:pokey:

Morning Robbie! How's it going?

[Disposition]

Morning Robbie! How's it going?


not too bad.....just playing some GTA4 :rifle:

[THansenite]

Like Kelsi said, no truck for me. I'd be willing to help you guys move too though. Just let me know when and I'll help carry stuff.

Robbie, what system are you playing it on? I really want to get a Xbox 360 in the next month and a half or so for Forza 3.

Xbox 360

[khans]

:roll: Boys...

[Human Collapse]

They just dropped the prices of the xbox 360 too. If you want to stand apart when it comes to xbox 360 consoles, you can wait until November 10th when Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 drops.

Heres a description: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/press/2009/0915-mw2.htm The last limited edition console was the red Resident Evil 5 console.

If you're just looking for a 360, they're only $300 now for the regular premium system.

[Human Collapse]

Xbox 360

What is your name on 360 Robbie? I'll add you to my friends list. I'm Human Collapse on Live, too.

In other news...getting my wisdom teeth out in about 40 minutes...

I sent you a friend request on Live...my tag is Disposition84

[khans]

Other than my DS and Rock Band, I haven't really played video games since Tony and I had a Nintendo when I was like, 8 and we played Mario and Duck Hunt. FTW!!!


I need to find more games for my DS. I am horrible and want to get better at video games.

[Disposition]

video games are awesome....especially stuff like GTA...where else can you run down pedestrians on the sidewalk and then jump out of the car and launch an RPG across the street and kill 5 more people all awhile blowing up 3 cars....


its so much fun!

[khans]

Someone has some pent up aggression ^^ :lol:

Remind me to be careful walking on the sidewalk when Robbie's around.

[Bullwhip]

morning everyone!

[khans]

Morning Dave. What's the good word this morning?

HAHA!

Alright, gotta go do work. Ugh. I feel like I'm in Office Space right now.


Be back shortly (I hope!)

[Disposition]

it was oh so convenient for that no comment icon to happen to pop up lolz

I saw that and was like PRICELESS!!!

[khans]

Yeah there are some good ones. :)

We have a pre-audit tomorrow apparently, so I have to go through all of our files and organize them. Win. :neutral:

[Girlie_xA]

Loves the fact that the douchebag in the office who gets paid the most and does the least is standing in the next cube talking way too loud. I can only hope that someday he realizes I actually hate him and hope he quits trying to talk to me while I'm working.... (sorry for the mini-rant)

[khans]

^^ It happens. That sucks though.

I have to go to lunch with some people from Wells Fargo for work with my boss and coworker. I reallllly don't want to go. Like, really don't want to go.

I'm ready for Friday. :D

Yea, a buddy of mine just preordered a new MW2 system. I don't need anything too fancy. I think I am going to find a Pro on Craigslist. I want it for Forza 3 and the new Final Fantasy when it hits. Maybe another few games, but those are the main ones.


:roll: Boys...

Go play with your barbies.

[XD2O]

Barbies? Hey, I thought those were Pete's! Break em and he will be pissed!

Rent a Semi for the move... I have a liscense, I'll drive it! ;)

[khans]

Barbies! :D

Just back from lunch at Coci Cucina. My boss and coworker and I went there because apparently our account exec. and 2 other ladies wanted to talk about investment opportunities.

I was busy listening to 3 people (a woman who seemed to have set up 2 of her friends on a date) at the next table over. My chicken fettuccini alfredo was delicious. That's about all I got out of the meeting. :)

[AmyBamy]

In all reality, do any of you know any one with a nice big truck? Tony, Kelsi, I'm looking at you guys on this one...

I may know of a truck you can use. It has a topper though. I'll see if you might be able to use it.

[XD2O]

Wow, a regular posting plethora, a surge in activity a spewing forth of new born communicativeness... Kind of like projectile vomiting after a night of drinking the hard stuff....

I know you all can't wait for me to invade your domicile for Scion Pinups! LOL

[AmyBamy]

Barbies! :D
The boys are just jealous.

I think I might be able to put up with a lot to have Cosi Cucina for lunch... For lunch I had a sandwich with a side of Day Quil Sinus. :blink:

[khans]

Oh it was good, just awkward. haha.

Ewww, that doesn't sound appetizing!

[XD2O]

Sounds like first date sex Kelsi! LMAO

I had some dutch cheese and ham on fresh baked bread, some chips and cold Heineken for my lunch. I don't eat out a lot over here, it's fun going to the grocery and grabbing stuff to make in the room, and that bread is the shiatz!

[khans]

Hahahaha... yeah.

Mmmm that sounds yummy! I still liked my alfredo though. hehe.

BRRRRRRR :freddo: Still efffffing cold! *teeth chatter*

[THansenite]

Lunch for me was a Lean Cuisine Cheese Ravioli meal and a Fiber One Chocolate and Oats bar. Can you say "YUMMY!"

[XD2O]

Yummy! Got TP? Gonna need it! ;)

Tony, this is like 6 maybe even 7 posts in one day, you better take a break, don't want you getting light headed and hurting yourself... ;)

It's funny you say that because when we moved in here, we used a less than conventional moving method...a horse trailer! Courtney's cousin's boyfriend/fiance/whatever is a trucker/cowboy with a giant Ram diesel dually and a trailer. It was...interesting. Haha!


Lunch for me was a Lean Cuisine Cheese Ravioli meal and a Fiber One Chocolate and Oats bar. Can you say "YUMMY!"

That sounds about right. I think my favorite lunch has to be Michelina's Lean Gourmet Buffalo Chicken Snacks!

[Human Collapse]

I'm thinking we should have a contest to try to figure out where in the world Kary is.

*sings*
"Where in the world is, Kary Sandiego?"



On another note, I ended up not getting my wisdom teeth out today. It looks like one of them is infected to some degree and the novocain wouldn't have worked. That means I get to wait until next Tuesday, which is the day before I go to Chicago for a Cubs game... Yay for hydrocodone (vicodin) and alcohol!
:toast:

[khans]

Oh Lordy! That sounds... not fun! Yikes! :(

Haha I think right now Kary is in Amsterdam!

Ummm PS- I just got back from Wicked and it was PHENOMENAL! I'm ready to go again! :bash:

[XD2O]

It's alright guys, folks had difficulty grasping Einstein as well...

Been e-bay shopping! Woot, got a stubby antenna coming, my window tint was already shipped. Have some different fog lights coming, they are round and made up entirely of lil blue leds. Then I ordered a Figure upper and lower mesh grill, having it custom powder coated blue... Gonna be a busy lil guy here...

Oh cool! A stubby? How much shorter does the xD one get? I'm debating about a shark fin.
OHHH! Did you order the pre-cut tint? I think that's what I'm going to do. I have a friend who said he'd help me with it (but I don't know if he'd still be willing?)


good morning and good night Iowa....see ya in about 8 hours or so!

"In case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!" (Name that movie Robbie. :) Easy one!)


So we ordered some space heaters for work since it was unbearably cold in our office the past few weeks (since about Tuesday it's been tolerable, but still cold). Well, when you have them going, they list the current temp. This is what mine read this morning:

The last few weeks it was in the 50's. So at least we're getting better.

No I am at Inver Grove Scion...It use to be a Denny Hecker's til his whole thing went down and still is...

[AmyBamy]

Awesome!!! You can disregard my Facebook post on your wall then, haha!

I think I'd actually be willing to go see it again. Elphaba and Glinda both had really nice voices, plus I love musicals. They still have tickets for some weeknight shows and weekend matinees. Jessica and I may go... let me know if you want to as well! (We'd go for cheap tickets... $50-60 range)

[khans]

Hrm... where the heck did I get Walser from?! I could have sworn you were there. haha.

[Mike_Hunt]

Hrm... where the heck did I get Walser from?! I could have sworn you were there. haha.

I have no idea....:bangin:

[khans]

Ugh, I totally would Amy but I'm really trying to save money. :( Stephanie went last year with her sister and said it was fantastic.

Maybe next year it'll be my turn! haha.

[AmyBamy]

Yeah... I kinda figured that might be the case. Being young and poor bites.

[khans]

Not even so much that, I just need to start re-allocating where my money goes. And especially with mine and Pete's anniversary coming up... I should probably watch my budget a tad more. :lol:

[Disposition]

musicals are fun...my favorite is Rent which I really wanna go see this year but not sure if I will get to or not

[khans]

OMG are you serious? I LOOOOVE that movie! I really like Chicago too. :D

[Girlie_xA]

I wanted to blow my brains out during the begining of RENT... UHHHG. Little Shop of Horrors was freaking incredible so was Wicked and Spamalot.

[XD2O]

Hey Kelsi. I went with the 3" Aluminum antenna. Yep, did the pre-cut, 20% rear, 35% front. I'll help you, it's pretty easy really. Easier than vinyl installation for sure... Mine came today, but I am tired from Amsterdam and spending the day in a really boring class for work... Probably won't put it on tonight...

Sadly the movie does the actual musical no justice....i was very disappointed in the movie how they changed around some of the songs...

[ParkJotC]

[AmyBamy]

I haven't seen the movie but I really liked the live version. I'd heard totally mixed reviews about the movie though. It seems like people either loved it or hated it and I've heard from more people who hated it. Maybe I should think about removing it from my "Movies to See" list. I love musicals though... so... I might watch it anyway. :-)

[Disposition]

Maybe I should think about removing it from my "Movies to See" list.


I don't want to discourage anyone from seeing the movie....I'm just saying for me it wasn't accurately portrayed. I firmly believe that Jonathan Larson rolled in his grave when that premiered.

It's still a decent movie and the music from it is great but there were things taken out, things rearranged, and things flat out changed from the original musical and I just didn't care for it.

[Human Collapse]

You guys should check out Avenue Q if it comes back. I saw it in NYC a couple of years ago. It was hilarious! Two words: puppet sex...

When I was there, I went and saw The Drowsy Chaperone, too. That was only because Bob Saget was in it though.

[scubachef]

Whats up Iowa? JUst stopped by to say hello.

[XD2O]

Morning IA!

Oh cool. I'll be excited to see that. Good deal about the tint. I told Pete a while back I was debating about it since it was like, $60 (I didn't want to mess it up then end up taking it to a shop). But I'd rather spend $60 than $200, so we'll give it a go. Probably a spring mod. :up:


Sweet let me know when you do it and I will stand behind you drinking beer and watching...lol

A scene from "Dodgeball" just popped into my head... the car wash scene when the kid is washing this guy's truck wheel.
"Yeeeeaah boy... get in there... real deep-like..." :rofl: CREEPY!


Sadly the movie does the actual musical no justice....i was very disappointed in the movie how they changed around some of the songs...

Really?! Wow I haven't seen the live version so maybe that's why.

Oh I heard that was hilarious! It was in Des Moines 2 years ago, but a friend and I went to see the Nutcracker (which was a mistake, btw). Yeah I really want to see Avenue Q.

Bob Saget is seriously one of the dirtiest guys ever! I saw the roast of him on Comedy Central a while back. WOW!

Thats what I was thinking Kelsi....lol

Tony, be careful, be responsible but mostly be safe! They may not extradite, but damaging the trust if you are discovered will hurt more than being run over by a tank in Tiananmen Square!

I sit in a cubicle staring at a computer screen and push F#$%in buttons for 10 hours a night.

Sometimes I just feel like :rifle: people cuz there are way too many people in this world that cannot follow simple directions when paying bills or even write a check properly.

[khans]

Oooohhh... :( Sometimes I get behind on bills, but I still know how to pay them.

[Bullwhip]

Mornin' everyone!

[Disposition]

Oooohhh... :( Sometimes I get behind on bills, but I still know how to pay them.


I understand getting behind on bills but its not like its rocket science to fill out a check correctly or even put an address change where the stub tells you. If you saw half of what I have in the past almost 5yrs you would understand where I am coming from lol.

and because I forgot to put it in the first post....Morning Iowa

[khans]

Ahhhh ^^ Okay I follow. :) Yeah the stupidity of some people just stuns me with every breath we take...


Mornin' everyone!

Morning Dave! :)

[Disposition]

[khans]

Haha. Agreed!!!!

I'm just excited for Friday. Actually no tomorrow will be good, then I won't have to bum rides off my friends! haha.

[Girlie_xA]

Morning Iowa... It's only 9 something and I'm already out of work to do.... uhg..

[khans]

Oh I hear ya. the past 2 days I've been milking the pile of funeral magazines I had, I'm on my last one.

[Disposition]

YAY!!!! My Intake has arriveded!! now to just wait til tomorrow to find out the cost of powder coating things then I can get to the installation of everything :surprise:

[khans]

AWESOME!!! :up:

[Girlie_xA]

I found a new project to work on... thank goodness. I was afraid I would be sitting around twittling my thumbs today.

[khans]

Haha. Good!

I think I'll be able to find stuff to do today. :)

[Human Collapse]

God, Brand New is so good... It's been a while since I've listened to them.

[Disposition]

it is now time for me to make the sleep.....good night everyone!

[khans]

God, Brand New is so good... It's been a while since I've listened to them.

Hrm haven't heard of them. Glad you're enjoying them though! :mj:


it is now time for me to make the sleep.....good night everyone!

Nighty night!

[AmyBamy]

God, Brand New is so good... It's been a while since I've listened to them.
I LOVE BRAND NEW! They're one of my favorite bands!

[khans]

Uh oh, I'm getting droopy eyed... :(

What's one of their songs?

[AmyBamy]

They're not really mainstream... One of my favorite songs of theirs is Me vs. Maradonna vs. Elvis. A lot of their songs have funky names like that.

[Mama T]

Hi Ames!! good to see you out and about on the site!

[Human Collapse]

You've probably heard "Jesus Christ," from their last album. Youtube "jesus christ" and or "brand new" and you'll get something.

[khans]

OOHHHH yeah I've heard that song. I didn't know they sang it!

[Human Collapse]

Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago, What do you say? The Cubs are gunna win today! Cubs v. Pirates game tonight, I'm there!

I won't be on at all until Thursday night, so in case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!

[THansenite]

LMAO. I was over on ScionLife and someone just posted up this link to UrbanDictionary: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=turbo+toyotas

I love it!!!

[khans]

Nice ^^ :)

Have fun Zach!

[Disposition]

Well while I was out this morning I got a price quote for my 4 grille inserts and my intake pipe to be powder coated....and the 3 places around here I could only talk to 1 of them and that place wanted

$50 for the 4 grille pieces and I would have to wait til the next time they ran that color. Adding the intake pipe would be another $50.:x

Not sure if I want to spend that much for so little so right now I am waiting on a call from my cousin about pricing for having the pieces painted and I will go from there.

[khans]

I'll rattle can it. You supply the paint, free labor! :lol:

[THansenite]

If I had my own house and space for a dedicated oven, I would totally have a powdercoating gun. What color are you wanting it? I have a buddy that lives in the Iowa City area that does a little powdercoating.

[Disposition]

wanting to match it as close as possible to the red on my rims....RAL 8012 is the color code that is really close to a match...if I cant get the intake pipe done that is ok but I want the grilles done at least

[luu]

ooo, my dad is considering about putting the insurance back on my tc if I go to the Street Survival thing @ SE polk. O_O

[khans]

LOL! DO IT TONY!


Seriously, I had to go to an 'improved driving' course last September because I got 3 tickets in 12 months (2 were BOGUS). After that, I think EVERYONE under 30 needs to take that course. INCLUDING ALL: soccer moms, SUV drivers, and those over the age of 65.

[khans]

Morning!

[khans]

Wake up iowa!!!! :)

[Disposition]

Good afternoon everyone.

:sorry: Kelsi I was sleeping after staying up til almost 4 yesterday and then only sleeping a few hours I crashed hard last night and it was awesome lol didnt wake up til 11.

then I had to go out and enjoy the rain!

[khans]

Haha you did pretty good! I like the rain. :) Good way to start October (though since my parents farm, they'll disagree with me).

How are you today?

[Disposition]

Doin good....still a little tired though

[khans]

Good. :) You had a big day yesterday, haha.

Just chilling at work. I'm sooo ready for the weekend!

[AmyBamy]

You're telling me... Today was definitely one of those mornings that would have been PERFECT for sleeping in!

[khans]

I've had a lot of those mornings lately. haha.

I facebook-ed you. :) Let me know if you can or can't, no big deal if you can't!!!

[Girlie_xA]

This is so a "big fire in the fireplace, big bowl of warm stew or chili, slippers and a blanket, hair in pigtails" sort of day.... *sigh*

[khans]

Yeah. I'm going home and having loaded baked potato soup ftw.

[khans]

I had cereal instead ^^ YES! Fruit Loops ftw! Because I am, like, 5 after all. :)

Time to dive into a pile of papers. Yaaay. :roll:

How is everyone today?


*BTW, Happy birthday Dave/Bullwhip!!!

[Bullwhip]

Woot Woot Happy Friday folks!

Thanks for the b-day wish Kelsi!

[Human Collapse]

Happy birthday Dave.

[Human Collapse]

I hope no one calls me a biter when I try to do the same thing with the grilles eventually... Especially since I've been saying I want to do that since I bought the car in June.

[khans]

Geez Zach, you're such a copy cat. *sheesh* :roll:

So funny, we used to have 2 Tylers in the club. So when they'd both come, we'd be like "Tyler with the nautical blue tC"... well, then we found out they both had nautical blue tCs. FAIL haha

[luu]

Hopefully it stops raining tommorow :\

[khans]

Yeah I think it's supposed to stay dry. I checked the weather today and it said sunny with a high of 57. I LOVE FALL!!!

[XD2O]

Happy Friday IA!

Happy Birthday Dave!

Hope they both are wet! LOL

[XD2O]

Some humor for you all to kick your weekend off with...

I was painting some lights, and new grills and had been shaking the clear coat, getting ready to give em a coat. And couldn't find the damn clear coat. I knew I set it somewhere, but I was not finding it...

Went for a beer and guess what? LMAO

hahahahaha thats hilarious

[Human Collapse]

This reminds me of the times that I go to put the jug of of milk in the cupboard and stuff.

[SCIKO4U]

well my xB needs new tires now but no money right now! My front right tire is cupped and they're all getting low on tread anyways...so I'm putting it up for the winter in the garage. Just hooked up my battery tenders and going to be surfing tirerack.com this winter for new rims and tires. Should find some good deals this winter!:wallb::(

[black box]

I need some new rubber bands too , mine are getting down to the wear bars .

[oneHOTtC03]

ugh ya, i just put $500 down on new tires on my car. AND than I will be buying a new rim for my summer set of rims AND new tires for that... ugh.... all on top of the everyday bills... shoot me please lol

[khans]

Ahhh hilarious Kary! You're suffering from Alzheimers!

[Disposition]

Morning!

[khans]

Morning! (oops, I missed seeing another post in here!)

*YAAAAWN* Holy crap, I'm tired!

[THansenite]

I think its time to start looking for "homes" for Kary. I hear that the people there are very nice and you even get afternoon naps.

Just had a scene from Happy Gilmore come to my head:
"You will go to sleep, or I will put you to sleep."

I need some winter tires for the tC. Gotta pick up some blizzaks for snow duty this winter. My 17's have decent tread on them, but they don't grip snow or ice at all. Last winter, I always had trouble getting out of Amy's driveway.

[AmyBamy]

Maybe you can find another good deal on tires... :up: Too bad the ones that were on my car won't fit yours.

[khans]

I'd give you my steelies, but I'm putting them on as soon as I get my car back!

[khans]

WAKE UP IOWA!!! :)

It's a nice day out today. I <3 fall!

[Girlie_xA]

I just put up my fall decor in my office... it's soooo cute! Mini scarecrows and gourds! Martha Stewart eat your heart out!

[Human Collapse]

Stephanie, I haven't seen you for a while! Are you going to come to Pinups with us?!

[khans]

Haha! Nice...

Hey guess what? I'm looking at buying a silver xA... :up:


Zach: I have good news. You tagged a woman who drives an xD? She signed up yesterday. Great job! :D

[Human Collapse]

Zach: I have good news. You tagged a woman who drives an xD? She signed up yesterday. Great job! :D

Cool! I tagged a chick at work with a tC last night as well. That makes 3 tCs (all girls btw) a xB1 and an xB2 all in the same parking lot.

Hey Kelsi, where have you heard one can get good graphics? I want to look for some skulls or something like that. Maybe a broken up stripe for the side or something. Actually I had thought of doing a Punisher theme...

[khans]

Hrm... Like custom graphics? The guy that did mine did a pretty good job, but screwed a lot of people on Scikotics, so he is no longer an authorized vendor.

I know Kary had his graphics done by a guy down south (I think?) May want to shoot him a PM.

[THansenite]

If you find a design you like, I can cut it. My cutter goes to 24" wide I think. I can pretty much guarantee that I can beat anyone else's prices. :up:

[Human Collapse]

Okay cool.

I just put a Pin-Ups thread up in the MN forum, I didn't see one there. It's a LONG assed drive, but we'll see if anyone else is interested.

Time to get ready for work. Damn it's windy and cold!

[Human Collapse]

I just had to share this with you all!

Real Life Batmobile (http://jalopnik.com/5371948/swede-builds-his-own-batmobile-for-1-million)

I don't know about you, but I'd definitely let him be an honorary Sciko!

[khans]

Sick! That paint is glorious!

[luu]

Does include decals for the windshield and wind deflector?

NICE! Okay then, how long does it go if I were to be thinking of a line that extends the length of the car by about 2-4 inches?




Off to work, I'll check in later on! Have a good one!

[Disposition]

damn its been quiet in here...

[khans]

I KNOW! How's it going Robbie?

[Disposition]

not too bad.....im just sitting here bored as hell trying to decide if I want to go back to bed or go do something.

[khans]

Ha. Yeah how was your day off yesterday? Any big weekend plans?

[Disposition]

the day wasnt bad at all. Got my intake installed but decided to leave it short ram since winter is approaching and I also didnt feel like going through all the work to remove the bumper. Got my appointment made for saturday to get my windows tinted so hopefully the guy isnt sick again this week!

other than that not much else going on.....possibly helping reshingle a roof this weekend if the weather isnt bad but im hoping I dont have to help cuz I hate doing that.

[khans]

Sweet. Yeah that was smart to leave it.
Oooohhh your car is going to be all sexy-like!!! You don't waste any time! :)
Yuck, not a fun time to be shingling.

My parents are on the north side of DM checking out some dealerships. I think they're going to come get me around 2 to go look at cars.

[Disposition]

yeah the car will look great once the tint is done.

anytime is a sucky time to be roofing a house.

oh fun......GL in the hunt for a car

[khans]

Hahahaha true. My dad had Tony help him shingle before and Tony doesn't like uncontrolled heights. :lol:

Yeah I have an Audi A6 2.7T Quattro that looks beautiful and an A4 to look at too, along with a Saturn Vue. Those are my big 3. I'd like to take a gander at a Kia Sportage, but not sure I want to go with that.

[THansenite]

Zach and Tony, I can cut stuff as long as the roll is (I typically get 30 foot rolls). I have cut a few Scikotics logos for the wind deflector and a stripe would be easy.

When you are ready, bring you car to me. I can remove a front bumper in 7 minutes flat. :up:

I have been wanting to tint my car for years. I need to finally go in and get it done.

[khans]

Blah.
45 more minutes.

[SCIKO4U]

chicka-chicka-bow-wow

Good evening all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't be so quick to assume young padawan. Once you hit a few car shows, you'll be picking up pop cans along the side of the road to get extra money for mods. It becomes an addiction. (Don't let Courtney see this post.)
