    Good to hear. My butt and thighs are disproportionately large compared to my height and waist, which makes finding pants that fit and are comfortable tough. I'm going to try them out.

    Bought a new mortgage yesterday (refi). Locked in at 3.25% with only the VA funding fee out of pocket, which is 0.05% of the principal. Took off $200 from my mortgage payment so I am pretty happy about that.

    Where the heck were those, sporting goods store? Damn "nice" stores have even gone to the birds( read, true pencil legs with no ass or junk to make room for). I actually wear boots a lot...so fitting over the shoes is a must.

    I blame REI for their used gear sale and 20% off coupon and friendly staff that's too helpful and informative.

    Been cycling in the mornings 5-7 miles, signed up for Tour de Cure 2013, am hoping to upgrade to a full road bike down the line. The bumpy ride is chronicled over in the cycling forum if anyone will need a good laugh after I get going with the clipless setup.

    Various 1.8t coolant flanges... To fix the cars perpetual coolant issues.

    Items that have died.
    1x Thermostats
    2x Thermostat Housing
    1x Coolant Temp Sensors
    1x Water Pump
    1x D. Side Coolant Flange
    1x Rad Flange

    Not counting OEM that came on the car... Id think I'd be done with the leaks by now.

    Thanks. I wanted the green in a size small but it's out of stock so I ordered the blue one. Hopefully I like it, if not I'll return it to one of their stores.

    Between a crappy phone-camera, and a really aging 8 mp Canon, I had to pick up something for my constant ebay-ing and forum-use, lol.

    Pretty cheap, but rated pretty high on CNET...eh. Someday I'll get a nice camera, but not today.

    college friend had a wedding in Traverse City Michigan, and reserved a block of rooms at the Great Wolf Lodge. the pool and giant bucket of water that dumps on you, was a nice way to get over a pounding hangover.

    though, their theme song still haunts me.

    Imported from Belgium and sold by Julian's. Bought them at Target this morning.

    This is the real deal! So freaking delicious!

    10-08-2012 07:41 PM #8253


    60,000 miles later and 140k total...finally throwing on SVT Focus suspension. Same as the picture minus the swaybar and with assembled struts because I'm lazy and understeer is fine with me.

    Up next, sway bar endlinks and $385 worth of rad tools to install it with after getting an estimate from the shop this afternoon

    I had buyer's remorse about it at first because I'm terrible spendthrift, then figured that my lack of a car payment now and in the future makes it easily justifiable
