It seemed like the van was handling a bit strange, and having to hold the wheel cranked to the left didn’t seem right either. At first I thought something popped off on the front suspension. It was either that, or someone brutally rammed into the van over night, thus destroying the chassis (and I somehow […]

On Friday I was chilling at home after work when I got a call about a downed bike… so I loaded up the trusty Previa with the essentials (tie-downs, ramp, Baxley chock [the best and only]) and went over to help. In the above picture, if you look on the road under the police car, […]

To constantly search with no results is aggravating, and getting to me. I wish I had the common sense to know this was a stupid idea in the beginning. Well, I did know, but maybe not to the full extent. If I had the choice now, there’s no way I would do it. The thought of […]

I’m not usually the type of person that likes to prematurely announce things before they’re even in my possession, but I will in this case due to opposing circumstances. For the past 2 months, I’ve invested much time and energy dutifully searching for a specific car. Now I’ve come to an acceptance of a very […]

Lately, I’ve been getting hoard after hoard of packages with car parts, so it was a breath of fresh air when this particular one showed up. I was way more excited about it than all the others. Inside this styrofoam-lined box was my new plant. You really can buy anything on the internet. Even though […]

Facebook: the ultimate ego boosting tool of the 21st century. Not to mention a colossal waste of time. It’s funny since I had always refrained from using MySpace because I thought it stupid, yet hypocritically I caved in to the whole Facebook revolution. More or less recently, my interest and activity with Facebook has been on a steady […]

I’ll admit I’ve been slacking with the posts recently. My bread and butter for this site is primarily with projects and garage crap, which have been on hold. The fact that it’s Winter (and Winter is a stupid, stupid season) is not contingent with activity levels. All that, and I’ve just been busy with life. […]

I finally found the urge to ride again after 3 weeks of being generally lethargic and obscenely fat. Since I only had one class today in the morning, I went over to the Hayward Plunge in the afternoon. Here’s a picture of this waterfall near the beginning of the trail. Shortly after the waterfall, there is an […]

While it’s still technically Winter, with the way the weather has been this weekend, it might as well be Spring. The Garage has been home to many hours of work, but more or less forlorn in its own right. I decided to be productive, and divide some much needed attention to the garage itself. The […]

Approximately 2 weeks ago, I buy something off of eBay… the seller forgets about it, and ends up shipping it after a week. A few days later (this was on the 28th), I check the tracking number he gave me and see this. It was supposed to be “Out for Delivery” on the day before, […]

It seems like an eternity since I sat on this thing. Yesterday, I decided to plug the battery back in and reinstall the tail for a quick ride around the neighborhood. Had a blast just doing that, and quickly remembered how incredibly awesome it is to ride this bike. The front brake problems just doesn’t […]

= heaven in my mouth. One of the trends nowadays is to take pictures of what ever food you eat, I guess to make other people jealous or something. I personally think it’s weird, but I’m going to concede and do it this time as well. Forgive me. I realized I have a Food post […]
