    Talking

    Threw a blanket over my computr desk to make a "fort", stocked it much the same as under George Costanzas desk...but no alarm clock.

    First few days only came out to make shi-shi, replenish snackin' material & beverages, & repeatedly click on the VXI icon on my desktop...much like a coke addled science experiment monkey I recently saw on a Hist Chnl deelio about drugs.

    After that got old, I got after some new tracks & racing iron. (ATV ORF 4)

    Oh yeah, built/installed about a zillion boxes to hang on walls & put stuff in. (I now work in a cabinet shop & it's been busy)

    Took a lot of naps in my fort.

    Did I mention, It's great to be back!

Who knows...maybe on my overnights I will be able to meet up with even more Vx buddies!!!! YAY! Take Care!

    Looked at the new E63 AMG = in love. Ahh 507 horsepwr.
    Looked at the infiniti FX 45 = practicality. Mmm.
    Looked at my VX....will always be apart of me.

    LOL, I actually got a lot of work done!! Sitting at work is really boring, so I am usually on the forum posting and reading to help pass the time. But last week I had no where to go, so I actually used the time to catch up on some of the stuff I have been putting off for weeks. But other than that, it was brutal not having VX.info during the long work day. Last Friday however, 3 of my buddies came into town from Chicago so I have been outside camping since. I just got back this morning and the first thing I did is check to see if we were all up again!

    Right before the site went down, I took a bunch of photos of my recent mods. I went to post them and the site was down! DOH! So now I will post them later this week after my friends go back to Chicago...

    Cool

    Proudly showed the VX off at 2 of the last 3 car shows of the year in my local area with 1 more to go in a week. All are just for fun with no judging/voting.
    Attended the last "Flashlight Drag" of the year in Zelienople, PA...weather couldn't have been better! http://alteredgas.com/flashlight_drags.html
    Got my Dodge Ram back from the custom exhaust shop...now has stainless "true-dual" exhaust with Gibson Headers & Magnaflow mufflers & Cats. Runs & sounds great! Also modded up a 14" X 3" Edelbrock chrome air filter to fit the Holley throttlebody. Tuned her up nice with all the goodies.. Borg Warner dist. cap & rotor, Borg Warner wires, splitfire-plugs, MSD perf. coil.

    Oh lets see, work, music, hiking, working on my 90 Miata, reading stuff on the net... the usual.
    Sold the VX 11-21-07. It was fun while I had it!
    Thanks for all the help.

    Beat Halo3, ran the Rex hard, ran the VX light, and continued with my everyday life. In all, same old boring crap.

    Visited some old friends where I used to live while I was in the area for family reasons, had way too much beer, tried sushi for the first time (yeah, I'm a late bloomer), went to an art festival on the riverfront, played golf, drove seven hours one-way to Ohio with my brother to help him buy a new motorcycle, replaced the struts and mounts on another vehicle to try to get rid of an annoying noise (they needed replaced anyway, but the noise is still there ), went to a Bluegrass Festival in KY with my dad, perused eBay and a few other message boards I've frequented over the years, and last but not least, lubed, polished, and waxed the VX to get it ready for the fall and winter months.

    I have a new fuel filter and FPR waiting on the floorboard to be replaced, but now that VX.info is back up, who knows when that'll get done.

    Partied like it was 1999 with some friends that came home to visit from school and a couple that live 10+ hours away.

    Played a pick up game of soccer with my old team mates from high school.

    Got bored and joined the Honda Element forum. The chick kinda wants one. So I got on to see if you can lift them. Which you can but its harder then the VX and you can only max at 2.5.

    Clicked on the bookmark tab for this website about 20 times a day.

    Payed alot more attention to my fanstasy football teams since this site was down.

    Had one of the busiest weeks of my life scholastic wise. I work full time from 9 - 6pmish and attend Phoenix Online for a Finance - Pre doctorate degree full-time, and attend night classes for real estate licensing 6:30 - 9pm. This week I had 2 essays, 1 presentation and the first test out of 4 to get my license.

    That about sums it up.

    I really missed the site,
    I had a idle issue,
    or should I say "a won't idle issue".

    I had this problem when I went and visited friends in Titusville and had to take a class in Orlando last week.

    Notice what I did to my exhaust:

    Treated my VX to a new timing belt, spark plugs, and tires.

    BTW, the Kumho Ecsta STX in 265-60-18 are on national backorder through Tirerack. I found a few sets available through Buy Wheels Today on eBay.
