Well, got my gun back, it took alot of work, but it turns out the high pressure reg on it was broken, so ima clean it up, maybe fire it a few times, and get reasy for the game tommorow.
gota fix my door here, its not opening right, and although it wasnt a big deal during the summer, now that its getting colder it sucks cause i have to open the window so that i can open it from the outside.

still suffering from the whole saying the wrong thing illness i have, and so are other people...

well, got through the toughest day of the week, and it went alright, no work or school again till Sunday, holla.
schools going pretty alright, i need to do some studying on the 2 tests i have commin up this next week, but it wouldn't be to bad, i hope i manage to keep my GPA up, i took a test in my digital class and i got like an 84, which shouldnt be to bad with the lab grades evening it out
everything else is going alright. Been wanting to play paintball alot lately, dont know why, its alot of fun, i seem to be making some new friends in it, and its something that alot of my friends already have alot of interest in so i guess it works out.
Jenn bought me a sweet autococker, basically my dream gun since i got into the 'sport' and she got me like, exactly what i wanted, its a 2000 prostock with a hing frame and dye low pressure reg, bolt, back block, and 3 way, and a palmers high pressure reg. I bought a sweet invert too loader and an evil barrel kit. it hasn't actually worked yet, but i think its done and fixed and i can pick it up tomorrow, im looking forward to it.
bands doing awesome, playing the machine shop in three weeks, gotta try to sell some tickets, were third from the top on the bill, which is neat cause were beating alot of other bands for position, which surprises me for how young of a band we are. |

things have been going pretty well.
schools great, cept for physics, dont know, teachers funny and all, but he cant teach well, no ones doing good in that class at all, so i dont feel to bad, but, got a 4.0 in everything else.
trucks still running, getting ready to tear down a donor blazer for its frame, and an awd astro can for its driveline, when im done ill have an all wheel drive s-10, and i don't know where to go from there. I was thinking about it, and i really want to do something crazy, such as doing a twin turbo setup on it. Ive done the research, i know i can do it, the only problem is that it would take at least 2 weeks of fab work, at least, and within those 2 weeks, i would'nt have a car to go to school, or work, or anything, so i dont really know what to do, other than to work on my caprice and it get running again... only thing with that is that that car sort of died,and to fix it would be an undertaking, but i coudl do it, as a matter of fact, i could do a ton to it sense its just sitting, i was thinking maybe i could do something in the way of a forced induction on it, maybe something like a pro-charger kit for a camero or something, i dont know why i want to do something like this, i just want a toy...the caprice would be good, ive always liked that car, its big, not too heavy, triangulated 4link 12 bolt rear end, 4 wheel disc, cop front suspension, but i dont know, i dont know how fast it would really be...
played paintball today, fun fun, hope we keep playing, maybe find some more people willing to play too.
my grandpa died a couple weeks ago, i was really sad about it, i always looked up to him. I know he wasnt a perfect man, but i liked how he worked to an extent. I like that he was goofy, i liked that he got things done, he worked hard for his money, he made his money work for him, he and my late grandmother traveled the world, much more than i realized. i really hope i have some of him in me. |

sometimes, it seems, if only for a moment, it is possible to have perfect clarity. when all of the things that are skewed or otherwise hidden come forth, so that you can see them, and understand them with perfect comprehension of both cause and effect. today, i had one of those, but now i have to figure out what to do with it, not only what i think i understood, but try to remember it, because it only lasted for a single moment. |

I cant find the rhyme in all my reason
Ive lost sense of time and all seasons
I feel Ive been beaten down
By the words of men who have no grounds
I cant sleep beneath the trees of wisdom
When your ax has cut the roots that feed them
Forked tongues in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?
Ive seen the wicked fruit of your vine
Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengeful song
Inspired by the times youve been walked on
My stage is shared by many millions
Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one we are strong
The more you hold us down the more we press on
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?
I know I cant hold the hate inside my mind
cause what consumes your thoughts controls your life
So Ill just ask a question
What if?
What if your words could be judged like a crime? |

well, as you know the caprice is down and out, and as its replacement is my flat black 1991 s-10. the motor is doing much better than before, as i recently discovered that a filter that i installed was responcible for the horrible performance. I think im going to put a b&m shift kit on it, to improve the kickdown responce and the overall shifting of the transmission, not only for performance but becasue it should improve life time of it as well. I think im also going to get rid of the air conditioning, because its cooling systems not to good, and i need to get a second cooling fan.
schools going suprisingly well, im getting a's in all my classes, and i seem to be one of the only people thtas alble to take what were learning in theory and apply it to real life effectively.
and as for jenn, what can i say, i love her!
Well I woke up Sunday morning,
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.
Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes,
And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
An' I shaved my face and combed my hair,
An' stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.
I'd smoked my brain the night before,
On cigarettes and songs I'd been pickin'.
But I lit my first and watched a small kid,
Cussin' at a can that he was kicking.
Then I crossed the empty street,
'n caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken.
And it took me back to somethin',
That I'd lost somehow, somewhere along the way.
On the Sunday morning sidewalk,
Wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cos there's something in a Sunday,
Makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothin' short of dyin',
Half as lonesome as the sound,
On the sleepin' city sidewalks:
Sunday mornin' comin' down.
In the park I saw a daddy,
With a laughin' little girl who he was swingin'.
And I stopped beside a Sunday school,
And listened to the song they were singin'.
Then I headed back for home,
And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'.
And it echoed through the canyons,
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
On the Sunday morning sidewalk,
Wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cos there's something in a Sunday,
Makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothin' short of dyin',
Half as lonesome as the sound,
On the sleepin' city sidewalks:
Sunday mornin' comin' down. |

The Caprice died... its the first thing i ever loved. It only ever hurt my feelings...4 timesish with its stupidly designed ignition system, and for that, i curse General motors motors division. Water from the regrettably cheaply purchased water-pump gushed from its seams, pouring onto the newly purchased distributor, causing a bad misfire, as well as cross-firing. as a result a rogue spark was sent to the wrong cylinder, causing a series of backfires which blew out both head-gaskets, and possibly bending some of the valves. it died roughly at 5:30, January 6th, just before sundown. I personally was blessed with the ownership of the vehicle for the past 7 years, and 2 months and I think around 6 days. before i owned it, it was a sheriff's police interceptor, serving in the Mt. Clemons police force for roughly 6 years before retiring into gentile civilian life. powered by the famous LT-1, it was one of the greatest production vehicles that was ever built by general motors, and it proved that to me time and time again, while racing other cars, and getting me out of otherwise bad situations, its prowess as a versatile, tough, ruggedness was obvious. It will be missed by many. |

Im fucked, well, sorta
more like im comming out of a period of time where i was fucked, an dnow im just in that shady spot where things are looking up, but still, im pretty screwed.
I got my dad to give me 250 dollars to fix my car with, with that money and some i have saved im going to buy a new http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=ACC-59125&N=700+115&autoview=sku, and prolly some spark plug wires. i should also look into a new bearing for my waterpump output shaft, cause my current one is leaking oil onto what will be my new http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=ACC-59125&N=700+115&autoview=sku. But, to do that i have to buy some bolts, and a front crankshaft seal, and it would suck.
after i get that done i should have a car again
also we have a gig tonight, my dad and uncle bubba would like to come see us play, i hope we get paid again.
i like working on my own car, that car has never once been put onto someone else's hoist, or been looked at by anybody other than myself, and i guess muffler man, when they put that new exhaust on it. Still, I'm proud of that.
I hope i do well in school, cause i dont want to have to worry about money for everyday things anymore |

i hate being as busy as i am, is what sucks is that alot of my free time is spent knowing i have to be somewhere else in an hour and a half, and i cant do much more than take a nap or get something to eat int hat time. today i have some free time, and that free time will be spent workig on my car, because that fuker has been broken for way, way to fucking long. I figured out the problem's area, its the wireing harness above my coil, when it was running, and i would grab the wiring harness there, and pull on it, the car would start to die, and when i let go it would keep running, and it wouldnt do that anywhere else. but, i extencivly went through that area and could not find anything wrong, so...well fuck i dont know what to do other than to look at it again. luckly kyle or someone was busy today and we didnt have band practice, nothing against band practice, just thats all i do when im not at work or at school for any great leinth of time, makes it hard to get all the other things i need to get done done. My band mates have no tolerance of me doing other things, at least lesko and jake, i think kyle is more understanding. I think because all they do is work, and then sleep, and lesko watches hockey too, i guess thats something. I think next semester will be better, i have it so all my stuff is one 3 days for the most part, instead of scattered throughout the week. I know life is busy, and i shouldnt hate it, but how many people you know work from 9 to 11 each day with a smile, i dont know one.
But, with all that said, im happy about where i am, i have a great girl, great friends, i like my school, i like my job, i like the band im in, and i like where my life is going. also, i got a sweet ass blues brothers poster (thanks jenn!) |

it seems that no matter where i go, or what i do, there is always somebody better than me, usually because they are also rich.

I will say that I feel the underdog position I am in is only temporary. |

Fuck is an English word that, as a verb, means "to have sexual intercourse". It is also a verb that means "to be cheated" ("I got fucked by a scam artist"). As a noun it may describe a contemptible person (also fucker) or a sexual partner. It can be used as an interjection, and its participle fucking is sometimes used as a strong emphatic. The verb to fuck may be used transitively or intransitively, and it appears in compounds, including fuck off, fuck up, and fuck with. In less explicit usages (but still regarded as vulgar), fuck can mean to mess around, or to deal with unfairly or harshly. In a phrase such as "don't give a fuck", the word is the equivalent of "damn", in the sense of something having little value. In "what the fuck", it serves as a meaningless intensive. |

well, to follow up on my last entry
I went to my bank, got my statement, and sure enough an amount of 7.90 was taken out of my account on the 17th, from a debt encountered on the 14, at archies of davison MI. so I took that info, my receipt and a frown to archies, to essentially bitch about everything I could.
long story short, i got 10 bucks back for the meal i paid for twice and a 15 dollar gift certificate. if anyone that was there brings up the incident they can get a certificate too.

my truck looks like it should be in death proof...
which is badass
I have a funny problem, one that Ive never had before
Ive got a few extra bucks layin around, and I dont know what to do with it
I could
buy stuff for my truck (awesome)
buy stuff for the caprice (also awesome)
buy a new guitar (pretty sweet)
help buy recording equipment (bad idea)
buy a poopy drumset (friggin sweet)
save it (seems like what I should do)
buya geo tracker and some chain and bomb (fun, but has drawbacks)
So I dont know what to do
Things elsewhere have been going well as well, even under what seem like horrible circumstances.
truck needs love, like, bad... I can do it now, if only I had the time, and the caprice wasn't already in the garage...
band stuff is going well, I think we can actually function as a band without pissing each other off to much, about the worse that happens now is jake yells at our ideas and I belittle jake as the rest of the band follows me and my stupid jokes against jake
perfect group togetherness
I can drum pretty ok now, would love, LOVE a drumset.
I bought a zune from a guy and it doesn't seem to work, no refunds, a guy from work said hed buy it for what i bought it for, which was 50 bucks, if anyone out there wants it, they can buy it for that, it seems to work, other than I cant get it to sync up with my computer. if no ones wants it, ebay time...
fiat needs some love as well, wont sit and stay running, I think its just a bit dirty in the carb department, id love to take that down the track, I need to at least once this summer...
