    amen thats the way it should be and the roads are amazing in the mountains and foot hills here :)

    wow that housre is basicly ours its a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath, attached 2 car garage, my folks purchased it 20 years ago right after they got married for about 180,000 us dollors
    yahoo realistate says my house is
    Residence: Single Family | Beds: 4 | Bath: 2.5 | Square Feet: 2,006
    Lot Size: 8,250 | Year Built: 1972

    its worth about 309,000 now or the online converter said its about 193,000 euros/ pounds not sure on that but it may be true...

    If the conversion is accurate, thats cheaper than here, and you seem to get more for your money, like in Australia, due to the vast amount of land available.

    I could sell my house, and probably buy one outright if I moved over to you.

    yeah i figured it was because land is more accessible here, and seriously you could probably buy a house out in like the suburban areas much bigger and nicer than mine, thats how all of the people from California get huge houses and nice cars out here.
    they tend to live out here

    I hear it all the time, though not where I live, but where my shop is. Mostly the African ethnic, yep, gets under my skin alright, but I used to do it !!! and now I moan about it! Probably because its not my taste in their music.

    It"s coming up to 4.15 a.m., not feeling tired yet, I normally get like this if I"ve had a busy night at the shop, the adrenalin stays with me for a while.
    I noticed you"ve donated to the site, am I correct ? Was it easy to do, I guess you need a paypal account. So you celebrate Xmas ?
    My parents will come round to my house, we"ll be having steaks/rice.

    You in a rock band, choir, orchestra, actor ? You certainly have a talent in many things. Would it be rude to ask how much you donated ? While my brother is back, I"ll get him to help me donate. I was thinking of £20, not sure how much that is in US dollars, does that sound OK ?

    "Dang!", no thats not right is it hehe You"re a pop star !! Didn"t think you could still be in a choir, but I guess there"s the next level for a deep voice, or is it baritone ?
    You watch American Idol then ?
    Your family religious then ? Just wondered because of the choir. Shouldn"t you be performing for mass ?

    UPDATE 12/27-28/09
    [​IMG]
    today i rolled over 160,000 :)
    and

    Adjusted the toe and camber on the front end, in my garage to eyeballed normal tuck the driver's side had some intense positive toe going on dude to the accident, the passenger side had some bad negative toe, ive adjusted them back to about --.5 degrees toe on both and the celica handles much better and drives like she used to, the next issue is sorting out why it is still pulling to the left. the control arms are fine i had them checked out by the family mechanic to be sure.

    tomarrow i will be finding a alignment shop that wont try to cheat me out if 2,300 bucks or so.
