With the way things are going for you, I would think you might want some steady income to be making repairs.
Hope nothing else goes wrong for you though.

see, the problem is...this is my only means of transportation...I have the money for repairs...or will...but it was put aside for something else(new computer for GTA3).
If I did manage a job somehow...it'd still be 2-3 weeks before I saw my first pay check...I need my car like...now. Tomorrow I'm proably gonna call down to one of the junkyards and see how much they are gonna rape me for Ranger header...if my uncle doesn't come up with one first.
Hmmm...computer game or a car? Computer game...car...computer game...car. In one you drive virtual cars, with the other, you actually have the ability to drive places. I'd say...hmm, tough...car. GTA3 is a good game (if worse comes to worse, you could always pull a real life GTA3 and get yourself a new ride) but I think getting the car fixed will be much more beneficial.
Hope you can get the ranger header from your Uncle, though. Doesn't sound like something that would be too cheap.
the computer deal has been long coming...was going to get a new setup 3 months ago...GTA3 so owns my car!
Seen prices for headers in the sub $130 range....but considering the junkyards around here...I'll be getting raped...and my uncle proably won't come through till after next week...IF at all...
btw...my computer is composed of parts from 1997...if that tells you how old it is. Which would explain why i'm trying to get it up to par as well.

Well, lol, I got the job. Not exactly what I expected, though. I have a job selling Cutco knives. My mom has used their knives since 1970 or so, so they are great knives. I just don't like the sales style, which is a get referrals, and go to people's houses to sell them. Don't really like it, but it pays $14 a meeting (45mins - 1 hour) plus 10% up to $999 in sales, then 20% at 1K, then 30% at 2K. Not bad. Training starts Friday, and I'll be done with it on Saturday.
BTW: White, you should have come just to see the receptionist.
One of the finest specimens of the Asian race I have ever laid eye's on.

WTF? No pics?!?! That's when you run out to your car, grab the camera, and sneak a few shots for us. If you didn't have the camera then i'll let it slide this one time!
Happy 4th and such...
I'll be going to a junkyard on Friday and then to Discount to pick up a fuel filter. Maybe i'll be able to make it to the track Friday if it doesn't rain out. Oh well...

Yeah, now all you need to do is actually get Melbourne members...
Ok ok...just making sure.
Anyway...I'd like to post this...as an example of what your oil filter should NOT look like after you take it out of your car. Needless to say it was a PITA getting it out with the proper Oil Filter wrench...which cause that damage...

Quick Question, Is the Hooters meet on the 20th after the AutoX practice? And if so what time?
5ish?
Hey, anyone going to watch some autoX on Sunday? The Martin Club is having a meet in Palm Bay. If it don't rain and my car is functional...I might go down and watch...since I heard from one night at the strip that one of the guys has a sweet Miata.
