Hah. Just turned it on.

Is anyone following UFC: US vs UK? I had it on last night and the first match had the US guy getting owned. They were on the ground for most of the fight then the ref stood them up. The US guy didn't have his hands up and he got a knockout kick to the head.

Edit for Ed: Well your email is true. However that's only true because I can't find your daughters.

I got in today.. Fuh-riggin' tired. Trip was mostly uneventful other than:

1. I didn't get it balanced too well, so my max safe speed was 63mph
2. with 300miles to go, the driver's intercooler boot started blowing off at anything over 12psi... not fun when driving the mountains of West Virginia.

I did get the trailer up my street and parked out of the way. That's for tomorrow.

Oh yeah, and my ICP sensor is crapping out, but Ed has a new one on the way to me. And Bob at Dieselsite is sending me his boots for a 6.0 IC in a 7.3.

Oh yeah... and if you at all are going to tow, get a 6.0 tranny cooler. I was bogged down to 20mph on a VERY long uphill, and my tranny temps went from 120 to 165 quick... I'm confident that if I'd have had the stock 7.3 tranny cooler, I'd have been puking fluid. I'll keep an eye out at my local breakers, but CO had TONS more SuperDuty's trolling around, so wrecked ones were more plentiful... still, I'll look.

Thanks for asking/remembering Pete!

Here's what happened with him. I believe his name was Browning BTW.

When they first got to the house they threw down some rules. No pranks should be involved with peoples food (ie. don't **** in the cornflakes), no bodily fluids should be involved with anything.

Well while they were working on that the stupid little kid starts throwing eggs at them. Then he peed in the shower in the US welter weight guys room. So the guy says to cut it out and the kid says "Come on hit me"

They don't end up fighting, but they had 2 fights to get onto team USA.

The first one the guy who is an Iraq vet. won because the other guy knocked himself out on the octagon floor.

The second one was another guy vs. the Browning kid. The Browning kid was getting the crap kicked out of him.

He ended up in the fetal position with the other guy kneeling over him pummeling the sides of his head until the ref ended the fight.

Why does it suprise you that I like that song? That was one of the songs I had cranked yesterday while I was driving with the windows down. I think I even had my foot out the window when that one was playing, I noticed you get funny looks from cops when you drive by and your foot is out the window though

So I got the form from school today that I have to fill out in order to get a parking spot.

It says no burnouts in the parking lot.

I was blasting metallica on the way home tonight!

foot out the window? Girl I'm flexible and I still can't see how that works. Sometimes I put my foot on the seat and prop my left knee up against the driver's side window...but I'm not seein the whole foot...
