What do you and your awesomely intelligent wife have planned to celebrate-a night at the opera or symphony!? Maybe wings and a ballgame?! Maybe taking faye bugg somewhere and just celebrating life?! (double whammy there-then mom and dad get a free night too :) :woot:

So -- I still have a "Proof of Concept" to deliver for my soon-to-be-former company -- at a medical device manufacturer in SF next Tuesday. Amazingly, they want me to do it still so I am working very hard today and Sunday/Monday to deliver my last and best hurrah for them. Cognitive dissonance abounds on this one.

Tonight, I am shooting a friend's wedding rehearsal and dinner, followed by the actual wedding tomorrow. I am regretting telling him 6 months ago something brilliant like "I'll shoot your wedding -- sounds like fun". Let's just say that this moment will not be in the chapter of my memoirs titled "The Really Smart Things I Said in my Life".

Then, Sunday -- Kate (Mrs. Dr. Dr. onzedge) is off to New Orleans for the week to be a big-shot presenter at some kind of laboratory animal brain surgeon scientist conference where she will be the hottest scientist and wow the nerd crowd with words and phrases like "transgenic insertions", "conditional genetic knockouts" and "phenotyping the F1 generation heterozygous mouse". It should be a real knee-slapper.

That, my friends, is how we celebrate around here.

Good morning Gurney, Ms.BC, Mr.Zman, Shado, Jar, and The esteemed Mr.onzedge :hello:

I have a lazy day planned today. Clean the house, and pickup some washer fluid for Mrs.Force. I thought her car was on fire and she was using the washer fluid to keep the flames down, she uses a lot of the stuff. Anyways, it gives me an excuse to pull the Z out and go for a washer fluid run. I'll be doing cold weather testing on what's left on the stock tires. Yeeehaaaaaw!!!

Because there are very few people left in this world with the courage, common sense, or volition to do the right thing.

We are surrounded by a culture of self-serving, entitled, slacking whiners. We stand out like sore thumbs and are usually ridiculed for it.

Is that explanation strong enough? I'm sure some are insulted, but tough.

Don't second guess yourself.

Because you're not enough of a d1ck to not care about other people. There are a number of personality traits that allow people to ignore feelings of guilt or empathy with others. Consider yourself blessed that you do not have these traits :tup:

Yeah they've been talking about it a bit on the ST board. I think its supposed to have a little more HP here. Maybe an even 180.

We are also supposed to get a new Focus RS soon which is rumored to come with 350hp.

if its priced below 20k then fiesta would be an awesome DD. I checked the interior dimensions and It's almost identical to my scion with 2" less legroom in the rear but 1" inch more legroom in front :woot:. so i know ill fit ok.

really 350 HP in fwd!? Can you say torque steer . :eek:

:driving: still probably a kick a** car.

It has a bit of torque steer as is, and we're probably going to be pumping out 350+ lb-ft to the wheels soon. :bowrofl:

Good job on the photos Mr.alcheng.

I know Elora very well. The Elora Gorge is a very happening place in the summer months.

I use to service a dealership in Elora. The house next to the dealership had grown, full size tiger in their backyard (in a fenced in area). I'll never forget the first time I saw the beast. It was in the middle of a Canadian winter, I pull into the dealership parking lot, get out of my van and hear this deep growl. I immediately looked up to see this large cat trying to eat a giant beef roast (raw of course). Even more odd, it was on top of a picnic table. Coolest and strangest thing I have ever seen in my life.
