Nice.
My brakes squeal because my dad put one of the pads in the rear on backwards with the backing plate against the rotor...

#2, if you didn't resurface, or replace the rotors, then there is a good chance that your squealing is from the two different pad materials interacting together. I think it was StopTech that had a write up on that. In addition, some pad materials don't play nicely with some rotor materials (when it comes to high performance pads / rotors). May want to look into that as well.
Tough night at work, since I was returning from a 4 day weekend. Found out we will be working this saturday. Which is funny since we were told there would be no saturday work in the next few months at a meeting last tuesday. Turns out there was some sort of screw up in another department which caused the pieces to crack in the kiln. Nearly 60% defect rate over the weekend.

Got a call from the shop, the bearing is ready! Can't wait to get out of here today...
No doubt! I only hope that someone gets their ass chewed over this. There are ~50 people in my department alone that have to work saturday, and at time and a half that is a lot of money.
We have it stored on DVR so Jen can watch it. It is crazy how the whole thing escalated. They just could not stop getting payback. FWIW I am kin to them same Hatfields.
I freaking love Netflix. No commercials and it's cheap. Cable = $50/month for commercials and 3 good shows. Netflix = $8/month for movies and TV shows without commercials you actually want to watch. And they have Top Gear UK. 
Congrats on all the house closing, man. And good luck on your house too, MonkeyAss.

I know, and it's scary. haha
Netflix is at least a year (sometimes 2 or 3) behind on the shows.
As far as the movies go - forget it. Worthless.
I do love netflix, but once you catch up on all your favorite shows - there is very little use for it.
My solution - a fat internet pipe (heh heh) and a lot of links to download / stream sites so I can watch the shows ~10 minutes after they come out. Winning.

You could say I'm in the market for a new engine....any of you guys/gals know anyone? hahahahahaha Hey, gotta laugh. For those that don't check the Protege section the car died on me Saturday in CT on our way home from Brickfair in NH. One hellacious tow ride home and a day at the mechanics later, the TB broke and #2 and #3 cylinders are toast. As of now the mechanic has quoted me ~$2000 to rebuild the top end. Looking into several different scenarios now to see what my best option will be.
I thought the FS-DE was a non-interference motor? How did it fry two cylinders?
You know you want my KL.
In case anyone locally wants it. $1500 for everything.

Thanks Nate and I thought the same Evan? Have always thought it was non-interference myself. Either way, my fault for not changing it out sooner but was under the impression if it did go, I'd simply be stranded with no serious damage done.
You bet! Since you have more knowledge than me though, can I ask you to install it?
hehe I'd have a lot of research to do into the wiring and trans side of it.
