I personally know the woman that invented the murphy bed for small dogs. It's not a joke! She's earned a crap load of money b/c of it.

Yeah, on the TT I think you almost have to remove the engine to even get the turbos out. Stupid me is putting an even bigger engine into mine.

Yeah that's very common in Wake County, since we have Wake Tech, and then NC State (and nearby UNC)... That's what I'm doing, actually.

I know a girl at Elon, with an 89 GXE. I'll try and get her to join on the Org too. I've known her since 1996, and go figure both of us get the same cars as our firsts, hers is as much older than my car as she is older than me.

... yep.
Mocha and French Vanilla, as she says. She's not automotively inclined but her dad is. I have yet to see her car, as she's not very enthusiastic about highway driving, and it's about an hour&½ trip on US70 from Elon to Raleigh. She was impressed by mine (hers has a few problems to fix) when I rode her around last month: "Dude! it's quiet, and tells you how fast you're going... and doesn't click when you turn!!"

To SurraTT: Well, she's your age. Maybe you already know her? Maybe not.

I'm in property management.. was doing leasing for over a year but I got promoted to a property manager position 6 months ago. Also a full time student. Not sure if I'll stay in the business after I graduate (hopefully later on this year). If I do it definitely wont be on-site anymore. I get sick of dealing with people and bickering in court with them. Plus people always automatically assume I'm gay...

Gay or not, he did it his own way, and put orange corners on his car, even though every else and their Maxima-owning mother goes for clear corners.

James was the first to do that to his corners. They look awesome IMO.

I personally don't like clear corners... now the UK style smoked corners... definitely. The yellow/amber/orange color doesn't bother me all that much though.

Customer Engineer for a company out of New Orleans. Thats just a fancy title for a computer tech lol. I repair anything from small to large printers (1200 LPM type printers etc), networks, large systems (IBM AS400).

I work out of my house as a remote tech so I dont have to go to an office (main office in N.O. is 3 hrs away)...just customer sites when they place service calls, I also have a company vehicle and great bosses.

I love my job and I have a lot of free time to work on other things and still get paid since I am salary (plus OT) . I will have my 10 year anniversary with the company in December.

They are good reliable machines but are a headache when a customer is too cheap to pay for parity (raid 5) and one of their drives fails. Last year I had to reload the system at 3 separate accounts because they wouldn't spring for parity and one of their drives failed. It takes a full day pretty much to load the OS then it takes another day for the software people to install their software and load all their back ups.

the year before last I didn't have any go down and this year (last month) I had one go down with a bad drive.
