There is nothing Japanese about your car, with the exception of maybe the Toyota emblems. German motor/engineering, and not even made in Germany.

"New research suggests that french fries may be linked to depression."

Nope, I don't agree with this at all. IMO, the single biggest factor in someone's physical/mental health is working out. You can eat the most healthiest of the healthiest, but if you don't hit the gym, your physical and mental health is at risk more so than any other variable/factor IMO.

Growing up in the 90's, Power Rangers debuted 30 years ago in '93 and was one of my favorite shows, and was a huge fan of the green ranger. In fact, I bought all the dino sets and swords as a kid, and still have them to this day. The dragonzord, green ranger life-size helmet, dragon dagger, and green ranger evil sword are all displayed in my home office. Wifey thinks it's time to grow up and pack them away, but for those that grew up in this time, I think they would understand the sentimental value.

Was browsing through Netflix earlier and saw there was a movie, "Power Ranger: Once and Always", so of course I had to watch it and have all the memories as a kid come back. The biggest take away I had from watching this: "HOLY SH!T, EVERYONE GOT OLD!" :eek::eek::eek::eek:

"UPS flashes a warning sign about the US economy."

The effects are almost immediate when they decide to mess with manufacturing. This is going to effect in-house AND global economy.

Really high rates -> less spending -> less supply -> less manufacturing = economic disaster :shakes head::shakes head:

Feds, in this particular economic situation, NOW is the time to reduce rates, NOT during a recession.

How are you sir??

Doing well here…. This Friday, I will be at my 2 year mark. It appears as if the good Docs got it this time.

Still am rather thin…. 148# rather than my high water mark of 279# about 4 years ago when all this started. Thats never going to change, bur its probably a good thing, as I was a tad too beefy.

Still rolling in my ‘21 Supra and pouring money into mods on it. :driving:

I hope you and all the rest of the gangsters on here are doing good also… :hello:

Thanks for the vibes, I do appreciate it.. and Yes, I was waiting (and waiting and waiting) to buy a new Z and it just took too long. I am loving the BMW/Yoda though. Super sweet ride that always turns heads.

I have gotten CF from; JB Customs, RexSpeed, and the A90 Shop.

The steering wheel came from the GR-Store. You order whatever color, stitching color, stripes and material combo you want and 2 weeks later they have it. Get the matching air bag cover and matching CF paddles while you’re there.., A short drive there and a 45 minute free install and you are rolling home. Its in Tampa.
