The importance of sentence structure . . .
The boss had to fire somebody and he narrowed it down to one of two
people - Debra or Jack.
It was an impossible decision because they were both super workers.
Rather than flip a coin, he decided he would fire the first one who used the
water cooler the next morning.
Debra came in the next morning with a horrible hangover after partying
all night. She went straight to the cooler to take an aspirin.
The boss approached her and said: 'Debra, I've never done this before
but I have to lay you, or Jack off.'
'Could you jack off?' she says. 'I feel like **** right now.'

I can't cancel a Feist concert.
"Excuse me, Ms. Feist, can you , you know, play the day after or something? I got this movie I want to go to with a group of my concert? Yea, that'd be great."

Leo: "Excuse me, Ms. Feist, can you , you know, play the day after or something? I got this movie I want to go to with a group of my concert? Yea, that'd be great."
Ms Feist: "Of course Leo, I will postpone the concert so that you can watch movies with your buddies, but you have to promise to come over my place after the movies."
Leo: "I would love to come over your place but I'm afraid that I am committed to someone else"
Rob: "For F_cks sake Leo, just do it!"
Dave: "That sounds good!"

I met the central valley meet yesterday. I just did my oil change and was taking my car out to calaveras with my girlfriend when we ran into them coming the other way. We stopped and said hi, checked out everyones rides. It was quite a coincidence.

I am here to drum up business for the Norcal Dyno day. Please check out thr thread at https://www.rx8club.com/west-rx-8-forum-34/norcal-dyno-day-bhr-mm-145132/page5/
Here is the info I just posted to help you out. Please dont edit the list on this thread, go to the correct one. Thanks.
Okay we are one month away from the Norcal dyno day with MM and BHR.
Details:
Date: Augest 2nd
Location. Nextgen Auto Sports 22104 Mission Blvd
Hayward, CA 94541.

Yes they mosty do domestics and dont sell things for our cars but they guys were happy to work with us to make it a good experiance.
Price. You can do it one of 2 ways.
1- If you only want to get your car dyno tested it is $50 for 3 pulls which includes AFR.
2- If you are getting your vehicle tunned, the cost is up in the air. Basicly the dyno for the day is $800 so subtract the amount of money from option #1 from $800 and devide by the number of people getting tunned. So if 5 pick option 1 ($250) then $550 is remaining and 7 pick option 2 the total for option 2 is ($550/7) $80 per person. I dont expect the cost of option 2 to go higher then $80. If the turn out is better the cost goes down.
If you pick option #2 you still need to pay for the tunning. The cost depends on how many people are getting tuned. MM needs $650 to show up, so $650 devided by the number of people. So if only 2 of us are getting our vehicles tunned it is going to be expensive. If you have an INT-x or you bought an AP from someone other then MM then shame on you and it is going to cost you $150 no matter how many people get there car tunned.
Deposits. I need to start collecting a deposit of $25 from everyone who is planning on going plus $50 for anyone who is getting a tune. Here is the deal with the deposit. If things happen and you can not make it, just let me know ASAP. If you let me know by July 16 I will refund the whole amount. After july 16 I will refund your money after I cover the cost of the event . Basicly I am not going to be out hundreds of dollars trying to put on an event for the club. I will accept money through paypal and I wont even charge a fee.
Send paypal money to shsupply@comcast.net Select money for Service/Other and subject is Deposit for Norcal dyno day and add in Dyno only or Dyno and tune.
The balance for the dyno day can be paid with paypal or when you show up via cash or certified funds. MM needs to be paid in full before he leaves for california. i will not make any money. Any extra will be used for food and drinks.
Here is the lastest list: Bold means deposit paid. If you send me money you can update your name.
1. Carson (c41250n) Tune and maybe new coils from Charles (8/2, SSF)
2. Elliott (SebtownRX8) Aug 2nd. MM Tune/ BHR Nitrious installation. San Jose [/b]Concord its all good.
3. Brannon (rx82hate) If car is back togeather Date/location?
4. Matt (laythor) Aug 2nd. MM AP
5. sharief (g-gray dude) Any day is okay but i prefer san jose, concord is okay too.
6. Leo (dontfeedthenerd) Date/location?
7. Niel? (N rider89) Dyno and tune
8. model_no15 maybe? Wants the BHR coils 1)Fairfield (2)concord, san jose maybe
9. Scott (Highway8) Tune for DNA Procharger kit
10. type59 not sure? Date/(SF)
11. lazyboyw Might get an AP
12. T-ReX-8 (1)Fairfield (2)concord, san jose to far

to all who is civil and respectful, for the most part
Me, my boss, and some random people from work are going to sears point on friday to do some drag racing. My boss has a pretty bad *** chevelle that runs high 9's on a good tank of gas, hahaha
It would be nice to see some 8's out there, even if you dont run. I have not decided if I am going to run or not, depends on how my clutch feels, but I would like to take one good run just to see what my time is for 1/4.
I sent text messages for those who i have numbers for, anyone else, who is interested, if you need help with directions or want to know when we will be getting there PM me

What I did on my 4th of July
After pulling some map files out of my ***, I was able to get my Cobb AP to work.
My ******* dyno was able to tell the difference between Cobbs Stage1, and <CENSOR>'s Stage one.
Interesting....
Can't wait 'till I get this dyno-tuned.
I'm on a mission.

Worked on the stereo today. Ground loops still suck.
Got my replacement front center speaker in today. Also did a little bit of ground loop hunting. I spliced a wire into the ground line for the stereo head unit, and ran it back to the grounds for the amps. I'm still getting obnoxious noise. I'm not even going to hook the center speaker up until i figure out what the hell is going on because the noise will drive me insane. I'm thinking of just putting ground loop isolators on the speaker lines.

A note to anyone who wants to replace this speaker. a 3.5 inch speaker can be made to fit with a bit of sand paper to file the hole a bit wider.
