I know some Oppos do it. What’s it like? What is your gear setup like? Do you have to dress nice for work, if so how do you deal with that?

In the past I have mentioned that a colleague wanted to buy my S3. It was really more of a joke for the longest time. When I first bought it he said “I want to buy that from you in a few years.” Earlier this year when I started looking seriously at 911's he mentioned that he was serious about buying my S3. He asked…

We have this piece of rubber:

I’ve always had trouble sleeping. When I was a kid I would stay up all night/most of the night, nearly every night. I would play video games, clean and organize my room or other areas of the house or just pace around like a nut job. Even if I slept at a friends house, I’d be up all night thinking or…

There was a package on the doorstep addressed to my wife yesterday. I mentioned it to her and asked her what she got. She said that she couldn’t remember but that I could open it. This is a common occurrence in our house and I stopped opening packages because it’s normally baby stuff, or clothes/shoes that she’s…

If I ever were to change the color on my ranger, it would be to the same green as this Frontier.

I stopped home for lunch and on the way back I saw what I thought was a Honda Civic to which someone gave the “Acura” treatment (technically I was right). Even when I saw the CSX badge I thought, “that’s not real, did this guy seriously make up his own model?”

It’s weird stuff! However, it worked great on the faded/yellowed grille on the Ranger. I also added a new Ford badge, the old one wasn’t in terrible shape but I like shiny new things. The grille came off of the truck really easily, but separating the inner grille from the painted piece was a huge pain. I could have…

Any Oppos go to a chiropractor? I’m not a huge fan of pseudomedicine things, but it has helped before and I’m not looking to take medication if I don’t have to.

For the first time ever. I had an important conference call on the way in this morning. So I stayed in the right lane the whole way on my 11 mile commute. It was actually over 30 MPG before I took the pic, but it dropped as I sat idle in the parking spot. I normally get around 22-23 which is still good for spirited…

Coal rolling, Corvettes, and Cackling.

Eventually I’m going to refresh the outside of the Ranger. It’s currently Vermilion Red which I’m down with and would keep the same if I was to go the re-paint route. As far as quality I would spring for something in the middle of Macco and a bare-metal job. At that price point I could just as easily have it wrapped.

Soooooo I’ve done a ton of wiring work on the Ranger recently. The truck came with 0 power options. I have installed power: locks, mirrors, windows, footwell lights, keyless entry/security, backup camera, dash camera, and a new stereo (head unit, speakers, mic). I tested everything and was getting ready to put dash…

I can’t get my head in the game today. The office is relatively quiet and I’m coming up on a 5 day weekend with the family. So I’m 1/3 working, 1/3 Oppoing, and 1/3 watching “Liquid Science” feat. the GZA. The kitchen was just refreshed so I’m grubbing a few carrots with red pep hummus and washing it down with my…

Having owned a few German cars, I am no stranger to overpriced pieces of plastic. However, I have have hit a new high (or low). The delete key on my Macbook 12 went dead. It worked, but had no feedback. I popped it off to find that part of the key’s sidewall had cracked. I removed the piece that cracked, and put they…
