My sick days are pooled in with paid time off, so it's not "extra". But if I need time off at the last minute it's for something important (death/illness in the family, or actually being sick). You never want to be "that guy" that calls out frequently, trust me bosses remember. My boss knows when I call out it's…

I just got home from the race (drove down tuesday/wednesday from Philly, camped the whole weekend), while the corvettes were the most noticeable car to wake up to in the morning (no mistaking those) this was by far my favorite sounding car at the race. It's too bad that the 007 car wasn't running this year in LMP, the…

An all orignal Shelby Daytona Coupe. Hell since money isn't a factor give me one that raced at Le Mans (more specifically Chasis CSX2299). It's a car that makes me get the fuzzy feeling.

The professional sitting on the bumper of the green Jeep. Oh lala!

That is not a Nitro that gets airborne, it's actually a Durango, the newer body style one.

I was driving my buddies STI swapped bug-eye Impreza wagon through the Lincoln tunnel last year. I should mention it might as well be straight piped, there's a muffler somewhere but it doesn't really muffle. The lady in the back of the cab in front of me was on her cell phone, and when we got in the tunnel (at this…

Drive with a friend.. and make them stay awake and talk to you. I do this for any drive longer then 8 hours. When I drive down to Sebring in two weeks (driving from Philly) I go with my friend (this is our 3rd year road tripping it), and there's one rule for both of us, nobody sleeps. It might seem like a good idea to…

Dunkin isn't half bad either.

It won't let me promote your comment so replying to promote!

I've been doing this for years. You can only drive so many Dodge Charger/Chrysler 300 rental cars before they start to blend together, and because I travel for business most of the hotels blend together too. I'm a very laid back traveler (you do it enough and it becomes a very stress free experience, it's just a…

They've been flying for years.

Thanks for the suggestion! I was looking for a new book to read.

Yeah... they love being told what to do. Try posting on 4Chan, it's a better place to communicate with them. Make sure you mark yourself as there boss or leader.

I built a nixie tube clock... but how did you get yours synched up with GPS time!?! I... I need that.

And bankrupt?

Yeah except for the H2 and H3 tag-line should be "Like Nothing Else... except the Chevy Suburban And GMC Yukon XL... because that's what they are, seriously they're the same. But hey, remember the H1, that was cool right?" Now THAT is a tag-line. Why don't I work in advertising?

Actually that's TechTV back in the day.

Actually had my dry cleaner show me this trick a few years ago. I'm on a first name basis with him (I wear suits 3-4 days a week, and travel extensively), and I was complaining to him one day that I pay him to clean and press my suits, but I end up ironing them when I get to my hotel anyway, even with a hanging bag…

You bastard! I also bought snow tires... stupid me! I made it through the worst winter this area has seen in decades (2009/10) on all seasons. But no, I had to go out and buy snow tires, which have sat in my garage on rims waiting for snow.

This winter has been sucking for snow hoonage, but there's a parking lot near my house where everyone seems to go to get there hoon on. It's behind a K-Mart so it's fairly secluded. It usually lasts a few hours until the police break it up, or the snow plows come through with salt. Haven't had enough snow on the…
