Your Playa roommate gets stung- and I got to witness the fracus! I think you were duped- I'm pretty sure he doesnt have the capacity to be sincere..

Just a little sideline of my trip. Headed out yesterday about 1:45 bound for Pittsburgh. Had just got an oil change with 10W30 and a Mann filter.

Coming up on 495 the oil pressure was running low at about 3 bar and dropping. Called Chris to let him talk me down. He convinved me it was probably due to the Low pressure system via the Hurricane moving in. I motored on and sure enough it seemed to climb the firther west I went and performed well. The temp was stuck right in the middle the whole way. The shudder I suspected was the tie rod ends or a balance prolem as suggested by T Carson.

Picked up Colleauge and headed for WV about 10 miles from the border in the middle of freaking Nowhere. I run out of gas DOH!

I get 5 gallons "delivered" at the cost of $10 a gallon. THen she won't start. She kisck and idles badly then dies. Turns out the hose clamp on the air intake elbow was loose and it was sucking un metered air.

Hopefully that was the shudder, meant to see on the way home, but to busy talking business.

Off to Minneapolis tomorow (air)

good point, but believe it or not everyonce in a while, a moment of kindness will shine through the ***** facade. not often though. i dont think he learned his lesson though, and if he did i would be seriously suprised. but yeah.. i think he meant it. the dick got dissed, and embaresed BIG TIME.

Yep- Sid was a little askeered- I do the same paranoia 2-step when my oil pressure drops too dude!

ILP- Not to worry- 944 fest is only 10 months away!!

Thanks Cory!

Hey Chris:

Looks like you weren't too early on the congratulatory Seminole call last night ::doing war chant:: However, the Gator accolades were a bit off base

Yeah, my Gators were up 33-10, and then they lost interest in playing..
That's OK, The Bears, Packers, Browns and Bengals all lost as well..

That's OK though- ITS FOOTBALL SEASON!!!

It would have been a MIRACLE if the Gators beat Miami.. it was good to lead at least part of the game.

I'm still in baseball mode- another world series is shaping up nicely. Maybe 2 Chicago teams in post- season baseball??!!

When was the last time that happened? The 1910's?
