My 1981 Corolla wagon (manual, of course!) wasn't nearly as fast as anything on this list, but it was zippy and liked to go sideways. It was the last gen RWD that they made of the wagon. It was my first car in 1993. Got it from the original owner with 125,000 miles on it. Besides fluids, plugs, breaks, bulbs, tires…

All of Orlando, FL and it's surrounding areas. The roads are full of tourists from all corners of the globe that have no concept of traffic laws or common sense. Sadly, the locals are just as bad. My wife is from Orlando, so we drive over from Tampa on a regular basis to visit family. The traffic is just enraging both…

when i went to my doctor, he was able to tell me what it was in about 5 minutes. had i not been feeling marginally better that day, i would have gone to the ER and not my doctor. apparently, viral meningitis makes you feel like you are going to die, but in most cases will pass as soon as you fight off the virus. it's…

started off like the flu. general crappiness, aches and pains, slight fever. nothing too bad, but just as i realized that i'd been sick for a few days too long, it got real bad. fever got worse and i got a headache like i've never had before. nothing took the edge off, not even prescription pain meds (that i had…

thanks. i've had the pleasure of seeing them a bunch. they are one of my favorites to go see live.

why you got to be a hater? it's just a picture. and for the record, i wasn't shooting with the rule of thirds in mind. i was just trying to get shots of the band as they bounced around on stage while fighting for footing up front as a packed house jumped around and danced. and for the record, the rule of thirds works…

i had viral meningitis in 2005. it is hell that i do not wish upon anyone.

here's the pic...

took this pic of The Thermals in 2009 with a 3.2mp Sony DSCP32 Cybershot from 2003. the overall image quality doesn't compete with DSLRs by a long shot, or even newer point and shoots; but it's pretty good considering. it's all about exploiting the settings on those things. for the record... shutter speed 1/40, f/2.8…

i found out two weeks ago that a good friend had died in an accident earlier that night. i can't say it was any worse to find out that way compared to getting a phone call. getting the horrible news that a friend has died is horrible news, no matter how you find out.

my wi-fi worked fine for a number of hours after upgrading, which was at about 3pm. i even updated all of the Apple apps (Garage Band, iMovie, ect) over my wi-fi network around 6pm or so. then i had the issue as described in the article, around 7:30pm. when i tried to see what would happen if i connected to a…

yeah, my wife finds food on the Pinterest for me to make all the time. her board of pinned food is a clusterfuck and i can never relocate a damn thing on it, but she can. we've come across a few duds, but most of the stuff we find to make is amazing. really amazing.

My wife just got a text from AT&T saying she hit 3gigs and would be throttled if she hit it again in any future billing cycle. So, AT&T is throttling at 3gigs, not 5.

This has been known about for sometime. I had a crazy former friend/shitty landlord try this on me a year ago. He was bragging on my page that he did this very trick just so he could stalk and threaten me via the facebook. I caught him doing this in real time (while he peppered my wall with threats of physical…
