hint:
1) find crappy job that pays decent.. not great, but decent.
2) find a house close to that work - so that in theory you can sleep till aprox 20 minutes before you have to be there...
3) stay in your rut job long a little longer... and justify it by telling yourself you can bike to work



Seriously though, my old rental place was in Southwood, and I rode my bike to work from there too... this is maybe half the ride as it was from Southwood...

I'd prefer to ride bike when it's over fifteen degrees in the morning ~ but considering how bad last year was, and my terrible luck for needing to drive on any recent day where I could have ridden... I"m just going to try ot pull it off tomorrow...

they let us put our bikes in the back of the store so no one would steal them. i even walked when it was -35. its cause its like a 2 mins walk lol.

i used to bike EVERYWHERE in the summer, but now i drive. my bike looks lonely sitting in my garage, collecting dust...

It's all about working in a grocery store. Lots of good memories from Safeway. Whether it was 2.5 hour coffee breaks to playing baseball with broken pieces of pallets and boxes upon boxes of fresh mushrooms as baseballs to power pallet jack bumper cars. Goood times.

ya at little caesars we had food fights after we closed. used whole mushrooms that left welts, dough that stuck to everything and flour got everywhere lol. it was fun.

at the end of the night after the dishes were done, there would be a huge goop of dough that had been in the dish water, and it was sooooo sticky that it stuck to anything you put it on (mainly my managers shirt lol)

So I'm not sure whose gonna come on thursday. Jonathan said he would like to, Jordan said he would try to show up and I pm'd mark about it and he said he would be there. I'm sure sammy would let an extra guy in if mark showed up since they are all " Buddy Buddy"! lol

Sylver01

Hey Jordan, this might interest you! https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/part...header-258461/

I know you can't put it on your car til you pay your own insurance but you could stock pile parts til you do or sneak it on

and jeremy, on the west side of deerfoot. just off 19th and mcknight

Sylver01

Well I talke to a couple of people and it looks like Jonathan is gonna be coming with me to the Dyno. I talked to mark and he said that he will be there so I'm sure between the three of us we will get a video or atleast some pictures of the run and how low my car did! lol

Oh and I know that baltbitch is gonna say that I have 245 hp so that's her guess! lol

If you still wanna come jordan if you can make the next one I'll reserve the spot for you!

Baltbitch

You dont actually just get to pick mine. I'm a little mad at you right now.

iTrader: (4)

I'm going to be the 'doubting tomas';
235whp

P.S. - Yeah this loaded up!

Sylver01

well change it then. it's not like it's set in stone

I'm gonna say I'll hit the 238ish mark. from what I've seen, the GM stage 2 has tuning issues

Baltbitch

Oh really? That's not what you've been saying this entire year of arguing about it.

Sylver01

what have I been saying? and that was before I seen a few other peoples dyno threads.

iTrader: (2)

ill take into account weather and crap, and i know nothing about guessing numbers so how is 233?

Baltbitch

I don't remember, but I KNOW it wasn't that. I am pretty sure yours was always higher then mine.

My guess.. 243

soundjunky

iTrader: (4)

wow... here I thought my 235 guess was going to be the low-ball number...

Jordan just took away my "doubting Thomas" name tag
