Hey every one, sorry i have been MIA for the past few months.

how about an update.

I am engaged to Nicole now, getting married June 30th. We got a duplex (back unit) about 3 blocks from the Orange Circle, and LVOE it. I got a new job that i love also. I am now a consultant for warehouse management. its going really well but my first 2 weeks consisted of 6 days a week 12 hours a day. i am now back to a normal 45 to 50 hour week, and only 5 days.

Jessica (my truck) was giving me hell starting, i would kill both batteries, the jumper box and have to move to jumping it with my focus. one day when unhooking the jumper cables i noticed that one spark plug wire was higher then the other 7 on the dizy. so i pushed it back down, and she started to start better but not great. then i started to pull them all off and check to see if the connectors were damaged at all. turns out there were a lot that had gaps (burn marks on the inside of the cap). the worst offender was the coil wire, now that i got all that fixed it was working better but not great. one time my friend was outside the truck when i was trying to start it and he said that he could smell gas really well, turns out that i thought i needed to pump the gas way too much, i would do a standard 2 pumps before even turn the key. now i just hold down to about half way and she starts right up every time.

Nicole's car is about to take a dive, loses water but not to the ground, shocks are back, it had been rear ended before her dad bought it and never fixed so the passanger door does not always open right, was giving a code of bank one lean, i reset it and has not come back but i am sure it will, and everything on the inside is warn out. so long story short we are looking at taking advantage of Fords 0% and getting a new Escape.


Oh and the best part is i now can keep my truck at my house not my sisters and i have a 2 car garage all to my self! until Nicole wants to park in it.

Sadly those wackos are so freaking clueless...I'm not sure they would get the message then...or worse if a person/kid gets attacked...only thing better is if it was a greenie that got "chosen" by the cat!
