Got to drive my Z most of the day so that was awesome. Local performance shop had an open house...got a decent deal on a new HJC Helmet

Hopefully I do some more Time Attack this year, did it once and pretty much hooked on wanting to see what my Z can do, plus $10 for 5 laps on Sunday nights can't be beat

Drove the wife to dinner tonight, mom has the baby till tomorrow....woot

Went to watch the movie TED, freaking funny, and tons of F-bomb, but it's a nice movie overall with lots of laugh, :bowrofl:

Actually spicy peel and eat shrimp for her, and a blackened grouper filet for me! :tup: I LOVE seafood! It helps when you live on the coast and it's always super fresh. :)

We went to see Ted a few days ago. It was much funnier than I thought it was going to be. :icon17:

:hello: Beautiful Z people! Just got home from my sister's wedding and reception. It was a wonderful ceremony (brief :icon17:) and excellent reception at the Bob Bullock Museum of Texas History :tup: Tomorrow morning is post-wedding brunch followed by caravan down to Port Aransas for the 45th anniversary of our annual family beach trip :D

I'm quite behind on the posts, and that just figures to get worse while on vacation this week. So I am not bothering to catch up, and I will not apologize for not doing so while I'm enjoying time with great people in a great location with great drinks. :happydance:

However, I'm sure substituting family with a number of people on this forum would equate to an equally great time, and I will even allow Diet Pepsi to be considered a great drink for the occasion :tup:

happytheman 07-08-2012 01:30 AM

Very nice, sir! Enjoy your vacation and your family. They are much more important than we are! See ya when you get back. :)

I use it all the time and love it!

Today, nothing. And tomorrow, and the rest of the week. The WORST thing about the family vacation is I am hanging out here at the beach, and my Z is home alone in the garage. :(

I told the wife yesterday, just after we arrived at the beach, that I missed my Z already. She just rolled her eyes at me. She just does not understand.

onzedge 07-08-2012 08:42 AM

OK, OK, just a few more here from Friday's show:

1) dumbarse prius driver suddenly stopping in the middle of a 45mph road just to watch some stupid swan masterbate in a swamp next to the road. or watever the bird was doing it was interesting to the stupid prius driver. :mad:

2) midwest middle aged fat-woman almost broad sided my Z in the wooded area with her flapping belly with uncontrolled up and downward motion due to her attempted jogging(?)...use a damn treadmill for crying out loud! oh, you broke that too? :mad:

the rest of the drive was relaxing and fun. :p QD'ed afterwards... also washed my Fit.

Lol! Trust me, he's the right kind of man-he leans more towards two wheels ( harley or ducati anyone?!) though! I am the car enthusiast in our family-kind of a running joke...:rofl2::happydance::driving:

(i think he secretly likes that i'm a car nut;)!)

Ahahah, needed my morning laugh, thanks Mr Kenchan :icon17:

Wife and kid are at a wedding shower, trying to speed through some cleaning so I can go motor the Z on this sunny day. Making a list of useless errands I have to do...that happen to coincide with nice roads/streets :driving:

I am reminded of one of my favorite movie lines. It comes from Animal House and goes like this:

"Son, fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life."

SurfDog 07-08-2012 01:49 PM

spent 75 bucks at the pump. (I hate Kalifornia)...

On the up side, driving the San Fran streets in a real car is a blast, and the Prius goons hate my (soon to be Berked) exhaust note. I like to goose the gas a bit just so I can watch them scowl at me with that same revulsion that a preacher looks at Ozzy Ozborn with.

I can almost hear their sanctimonious little minds trying to think up some laws to pass to try to make everything awesome about my life illegal.

(note: I know that not all pious drivers are: 1. tools, 2. Sanctimonious, or 3.Pelosi-loving freedom-hating democrats. But here in the city by the bay, the odds go way up!)

Please excuse my Libertarian Z-car loving ways. I promise I'm not a hater, just a bit frustrated by San Fran regulatory over-reach.

Also, please don't judge me too harshly for putting HFC's on my car *primarily* because its illegal and I am utterly in contempt of such nonsense regulation.

You are completely wrong and off-base with this statement. They are ALL tools, sanctimonious and Pelosi-loving freedom-hating democrats. :icon17:

Besides, you left out "entitled".
