where to start.

hmmm, got a $100 ticket for "running a red light" even though it turned yellow as i crossed the line, remained yellow throughout my whole field of vision...and in no way would have been safer to try to stop...

i was supposed to get safe driver points next month for going incedent free for 3 years str8. heared they just changed it to 5 years. if i dont beat the ticket it doesnt matter anyway.

having rediculous problems fixing a bad water pump in the tbird. may end up being a bigger problem anyway. thinking of selling it again...worth 2k?

stuffed my pro piccolo. not a big deal but its down now. needs a new head. (for those of you that dont know a pro piccolo is a RC collective pitch micro heli).

heres a good one...finally got my freeride mt bike back together. new pads, rotors, brake lines, fork seals, tires, chain, re-trued rims, and duralier. took it out to a local mtn to make a dh run. we hike up with the bikes and race down. friend of mine decided it would be funny to remove the bolts that capture the pivot bearings for the rear swing arm. i get the the top and bounce on the bike to check the rear shock. the bike does something funky so i get off it and find the machined part of the swing arm in question has now bent up like a tuna can. no bolts. after freaking out i go hope and call santa cruz (i ride a santa cruz bullit). good news...no questions asked replacement policy. bad news...350 bucks and a 3 month wate....

oh yeah...my ranger failed inspection. yay...
